But a war with Iran or Syria could cause 0bama to suspend elections for public safety reasons or some such crap. Who would stop him?
One would expect the Congress (House controlled by Republicans) would easily stop such a move in its tracks.
There is no precedent for suspending elections in this country. Remember that we've had two world wars and a Civil War and elections went on as always.
Any talk of "suspending elections" from Obama would likely result in the biggest landslide defeat (of Obama) in electoral history.
