Does this mean that black presidents only get 3/5ths of a term?

Since they're not allowed to appoint SC justices in their last year.

1. Seems that way to Mitch McTurtle. nt

3. Give Mitch credit.

He must have been crying in his beer (does he drink beer? If so, probably Budweiser) when Mr Obama stole the last election. Fortunately, he had plan b: if he could not ensure Mr Obama would have no second term, he could ensure that nothing was done during it. And when you think of it, aside from the odd executive order or USSC ruling, what has been accomplished since 2012?

2. Oh, I thought

it meant that a brown Senator can only vote 3/5ths of the time.

4. Obama can nominate whoever he wants

But the senate reserves the right to vote yes or no on whoever they want.

5. Excellent framing. Let's go with that.

6. Your friend may have stolen that from DU
