 >> So you are relying on what we don't know to make this accusation?

 MP> My recollection is that:

 MP> (1) I did accuse Obama of saying he wished he could run for a third term
 MP> and, since he can't, he wished he could find someone to run that would let
 MP> him run things in the background.  There is video evidence of this one so I
 MP> feel pretty confident about it.

I can post the transcript (with cite) of what Barack Obama actually
said to show Mike Powell is full of shit. Would you like me to do that?

 MP> (2) I said that, because of (1), I can see where some people wonder if it
 MP> didn't happen.  I didn't say it happened.

Mike Powell falsely claimed Obama of saying he wished he could run for
a third term. It is plain and obvious that Barack Obama chose not to
run for a third consecutive term, as history shows. But he did say he
could have. And would have won had he done so.

 MP> It is not like Limbaugh, or his modern equal, said that and got people
 MP> thinking about it.  Obama himself said it during a TV interview.

I can post the transcript (with cite). It would prove embarrassing
to Mike Powell if I would do so, but I will leave it up to him and
others to decide.

 MP> When the idea comes straight out of the horse's mouth, how can you blame
 MP> some people for wondering about it?

There is nothing to wonder about. Obama said what he said, in plain
and simple English. And do realize, he can always run for a new first
term, and subsequent second consecutive term, thus equalling FDR's
feat of serving four presidential terms in office.

For Life,
Lee
