Title: Joe Biden to become president of the United States in 2013? Post by: solex on August 31, 2013, 03:45:20 AM Joe Biden explaining the constitutional basis for impeaching the president for taking the US to a war of choice without Congressional approval.
worth listening to the whole item, but 5:25 for the important info: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=0xpfpciJzBU (spoiler alert) he was referring to Bush attacking Iran, but the same principles apply today.

Or Clinton. Or any warmongering president since WW II should have been impeached immediately on constitutional grounds. We haven't declared a war (that's required by our supreme law, constitution) since WW II............ Title: Re: Joe Biden to become president of the United States in 2013?

My point is that if Obama attacks Syria without congressional approval then he is guilty of an impeachable offense. An offense which, if successfully prosecuted - as Joe Biden says should happen because he says: "I know this stuff", then Biden becomes the 45th president before the next election.

You're saying it's a plot? Because we've got plenty of things we could impeach him on constitutionally. Title: Re: Joe Biden to become president of the United States in 2013?

I don't think its a plot, but one of those things where events cascade in a certain direction, similar to what happened to Nixon. Ford never plotted to bring down Nixon and become president, but events snowballed and it happened anyway. Title: Re: Joe Biden to become president of the United States in 2013? Post by: lavalampoon on September 01, 2013, 06:09:15 AM The US is in a post-Constitutional era. The rules are subjective now and easily redefined for expediency. No impeachment will happen because the next president will bend the rules like the current one. A precedent has stood for too long, and is not likely to change. Half the voters care more about what they'll get from a candidate becoming president than his character, integrity, or consistency. The other party does no better.
