If the citizens of this Republic still took the Constitution seriously, Obama would be impeached for his decision to unilaterally grant amnesty to certain illegal aliens.
Article 1, Sec. 8 of the Constitution, which enumerates the power of Congress, states that "Congress shall have the Power To... establish an [sic] uniform Rule of Naturalization." Congress has passed numerous laws pertaining to immigration and naturalization, including laws requiring the deportation of illegals.
The role of the President, according to Article II, Sec. 3, is to "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed." Obama's refusal to execute Congress's immigration laws (or, for that matter, Congress's Defense of Marriage Act) is an impeachable offense. Article II, Sec. 4 states that the President "shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for... Treason, Bribery, or other High Crimes and Misdemeanors." The deliberate failure to enforce valid immigration law and allow hordes of foreigners to live and work in the U.S. is, arguably, "treason," and doing so in an election year to appease Hispanic voters could certainly be considered "bribery."
In theory, Obama could exercise his power in Article II, Sec 2. to "grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offenses against the United States" and offer a blanket pardon for all violators of immigration law. He's not doing that, because he'd certainly lose in November if he did. (However we should be concerned that if he does lose in November, he'll do it anyway on his last day in office).

He is not planning for a last day in office to ever occur. He is planning for a communist takover of the United States. All you foolish dumbed down democrats that are not communist need to wake up.
Dear 2:49,
Your condition has a name...delusional paranoia. I know it's tough to hear something like this, but as someone who is on your side regarding your concern about the direction of the country, I am hoping and praying that you seek professional help. No one should have to suffer with such a debilitating disease such as yours.
3:29 that was funny.
Impeached hell , he should be hanged or put in front of a firing squad and treated like a traitor.
Right 3:54!
With 3:35 and 3:29
yes 3:54, and his entire cabinet, past and present. they are all traitors.
3:29 Please check and see if the buttons on your shirt line up with the holes on the other side. You must wake up to the fact of what's really happening.
Hold Congress accountable. They've set themselves up in a cushy little system where they increase their personal wealth in return they let lobbyists write legislation, allow the Executive branch to increase its power by voting for new cabinet positions and/or looking the other way when the Executive oversteps. Many of them have made a career of "public service."
The constitution is no longer relevant.
we can't impeach...because of biden.
Somebody been drinkin too much KOOLAIDE some body like 3:29 looked at his own condition and confused it with 2:49's beliefs.
