**Our White House “Constitutional Law professor” decided it was time to...**
EVERYONE who took that Professor’s courses, should have their DEGREES RECALLED... and be forced to retake them.

This is just another one of Obama’s BARE-FACED LIES
He was NEVER a law Professor, he was an “instructor”
Instructor = water boy, bench warmer, also-ran, rookie
1)Asst. Professor newbie
2)Associate Professor = proven talent, usually published.
3) Full Professor(usually has tenure, so the university can hold onto him.)

"Constitutional law" instructs students on how to pretend the Constitution doesn't says things other than what it clearly does, preferably in such a way that one can pretend all previous court decisions are legitimate.
This country would be much better off, and closer to the Constitution, if it were recognized that court precedent should only be used when the Constitution, statutes, and other laws are insufficient to reach a firm conclusion. Precedent should only be used to choose among equally-justifiable decisions, not to justify any decision which could not be justified without it.
If one accepts the notion that courts have, and will likely continue to, produce a substantial number of illegitimate decisions, the Constitution is really not that hard to understand. But if one assumes the Constitution bends and folds in such fashion as to make all the Court's decisions legitimate, one must believe it to be twistier than a Klein Bottle.
