Obama's violated the Constitution with his Libya War but Chuck Todd helps divert attention away from that fact with question about the war powers act, asking if Obama thinks it is constitutional. The press conferences are not being run correctly, the people are being short changed. President Obama read from a list, he selected Chuck Todd to ask the question of him.

Remember:
"Less than 44 hours after NBC sent a congratulatory note and an invitation to Ohio Congressman Dennis Kucinich to participate in the Jan. 15 Democratic Presidential debate in Las Vegas, the network notified the campaign this morning it was changing its announced criteria, rescinding its invitation, and excluding Kucinich from the debate.
NBC Political Director Chuck Todd notified the Kucinich campaign this morning that, although Kucinich had met the qualification criteria publicly announced on December 28, the network was "re-doing" the criteria, excluding Kucinich, and planning to invite only Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama and former senator John Edwards" - From Kucinich campaign Press release

Obama didn't even answer Chuck Todd's question: "I'm not a Supreme Court justice, so I'm not -- I'm not going to put my constitutional law professor hat on here. ... I don't even have to get to the constitutional question. ... there may be a time in which there was be a serious question as to whether or not the War Powers Resolution Act was constitutional. I don't have to get to the question. ... I don't have to reach it. That's -- that's a good legal answer."

  • @frankbob14121 You assume Obama answered? Hold on to your hat, Obama didn't even answer his question. I didn't leave any great answer out. I'll link to that part in the transcript so you can see for yourself. look at my summary in the next comment.

  • Dude your videos is dumb it shows how ignorant you are, because the supreme court did not see it as unconstitutional. The supreme court and congress are there to counter balance the federals governments actions. Concerning Chuck Todd he new what the answer was, but wanted clarification from the President. Americans, especially some folks on the neo cons part are not knowledgeable about their own country.

  • go democrates

  • So you set up a question YOU want to ask THE PRESIDENT, and then you spend the next several minutes doing nothing more than repeating your own weak analysis to drawn your own predetermined conclusion? You act as your own judge, jury and executioner, and pretend you have no preexisting bias - then you expect these poor dupes on YouTube to swallow your litany of make-believe as though you've said something factual? Seriously? All while you whine about journalists? NO! EPIC FAIL from an EPIC FRAUD!

  • Chuck Todd, "voice of reason?" "Political expert?" Puh-leeze! He made his 'educated' expert analysis a few years back as to whom McCain would pick for VP and Sarah Palin, a dark horse to be sure, wasn't even on his radar. He had never even heard of her! From that moment on, I knew this guy was a fake and has no more insight politically than the average Joe. Every time he blathers on, I quickly turn the channel....and I'm a Democrat! Also, lose the goatee, Trotsky! Seriously??

  • Easy to talk in the confort of your home...

  • Btw its the war for lybia ;-)

    Think about that sentance.

  • What do you expect from embedded White House journalists?

  • @GodOfTheInternets  The comments were left on this video.

  • @neomedia74

    Where did you leave the comments? On what video?

    Also, I think you might be using "albeit" wrong.
