> [@elfkin477](#): > > No! I’m in support of instituting _more_ term limits, not eliminating the one we already have. Why? What is so good about term limits? IF (and it’s a big if) someone is a really good representative, clever and articulate and represents their constituents well (like Jo Biden?), why do you want to boot them out? IMHO - Obama has been a really good president - if he can get re-elected in an open and fair election due to his record, why should we be getting rid of him now? I do think he is better than Clinton. ---

If it were legal, I’d be all for a third Obama term. But it isn’t. So I’m not. ---

In spite of what you may wish and dream, more people don’t want what you want, and perhaps you should try to learn to accept that a majority of other people have opinions that disagree with yours. > The answer is “NO” I would prefer to see Trump in the white house than destroy the constitution. Why do you assume I want Obama to stick around for a third term? Can’t a guy ask a simple hypothetical no mores? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/third-obama-term/771586.md?page=2)
