Biden Demands Obama's Impeachment:
Biden's comments reflect growing Democrat anger at President Obama's unilateral military action. In the House, where the impeachment process must begin, Representative Dennis Kucinich has already begun talking about removing Obama from office Ref. Source 3
Pres. Obama has announced that he is running again. Does he really think he will win after all that's been happening? I foresee the Republicans coming out in their masses to take back the government from the White House.

What? He must be dreaming. Really. I don't think he will win again. Even those who supported him when he run for President dislike the way he's handling things. He let a lot of people down. However, kudos for his intervention in Libya.

Obama's billion-dollar re-election campaign
US President Barack Obama has declared himself a candidate for re-election in 2012, jumping ahead of a slow-starting Republican field and hoping an economic recovery will boost his case for a new term. Ref. Source 3
I actually think he can win again. I believe the Republican Party will tear itself apart and that with the split against the Tea Party, they will cancel out each other. Trump is an intriguing figure in the race that could take it, but not sure he really is in it from his comments. I think the media spotlight on him will at some point force him out.
I believe that Obama has been a totally inept president. Our allies look at him as week and indecisive with good reason. However, the one thing he does know how to do is campaign. It will be a harder campaign, but the US public as a whole likes well spoken and good looking leaders that are skilled at lying to us. He is really good at campaigning!
