Never saw that before or after.

It sounds like you're saying Obama..lied to us?

Next you'll tell ol' Surtur the dude has tried to circumvent the constitution in the past.

Touché.

But it pisses me off because most other politicians aren't as loved and idolized as him.

His personal charm aside, he has the current advantage of being compared to the most despised incoming president in the country's history. Even George W was looked on more fondly once Obama came in. People have an easily exploitable weakness for what they think was a better past.

No politician who covets power and influence can approach the Constitution as anything other than an obstacle to get around. Left or Right, Dem or Rep, blond or orange. When they hit the leagues of Federal power with coveted positions of Senatorial seats, or House Majority Leaderships, or the Presidency, the Constitution stops being a thing that protects them as people and starts becoming a roadblock that hinders them as a politician. None of them are to be trusted with our wellbeing.
