My concern stems more from a general distrust of the CiC. Expecting obama not to abuse power is non starter. This system will be abused under his watch.

I agree about the distrust, as we all have it...but have some faith in our State Militias sworn to defend the Constitution. Go to this website and ponder the OATHS taken by military, National Guard, etc...it is THE CONSTITUTION they swear allegiance to, and although they will state to obey the order of the President, that is only as long as he is faithful to our American Constitution, and us , for “domestic enemies” are those who violate it.
