It would take a 2/3 majority in the Senate, which is impossible (i.e., even if we* win EVERY Senate race this year—which won’t happen—we would still be a vote or two short).
*note: by “we,” I mean the GOP, even though it’s likely that not every GOP senator would vote to convict. Just one more reason it’s impossible.
We COULD. But it will NEVER happen to the “first BLACK President”.
Unfortunately. Not gonna happen.
He can be impeached now. Impeachment is just a trial. It is fact finding. The Democrats fight it because they know it will affect their PARTY. This just proves that they place the Democrat party ahead of their COUNTRY.
The purpose of the Democrat party is to elect thieves to office so that they can have access to the public treasuries in order to loot them.
It might be if we’d support these people & their efforts

(National Black Republicans Association filed articles of impeachment
Impeachment (in the House) and any subsequent trial (by the Senate) is a political response to presidential actions, regardless of the “high crimes and misdemeanors” phrase. There is not sufficient political will among the Republican members of the House of Representatives to seriously consider it, let alone carry it out. Nor is the coming mid-term election likely to change that, though it could well bring other advantages.
Absolutely go ahead and impeach — TODAY!!
The impeachment itself will be embarrassing as hell, whether or not (most likely not) that the Senate votes to convict. And the impeachment becomes part of the historical record, win or lose.
But don’t forget there’s a big election coming up! Ain’t NO candidate for Senate who wants to be known for voting to let Obummer off the hook for his shenanigans! And yes, we will be taking names!
I am convinced that Obama could suspend elections and declare himself dictator with little more than a whimper from the GOP leadership and do so to the applause of Democrats and the media.
Though legal, no legislator would dare begin the impechment of our first black PRESIDENT.
Call it the fear factor.
The House could start impeachment proceedings right now but the Senate will never try it.
Until we get the Semate back I prefer just threatening to impeach the POS over this executive order thing. Barry is like a spoiled unruly child. He acts out and then waits to see if anybody responds. If not then he acts out even worse. Thats what he was doing yesterday or whenever with the I’ve got a phone and a pen carpola. Now he is waiting to see if there is going to be any blowback. If not he will start with the illegal executive orders. Boehner needs to openly threaten him with impeachment. He would prolly back down.
Look what happned on the Syrian thing. The legislators had a coronary about attacking Syria and Bam backed down. The Pentgon basically told him no. There is a great deal of speculation that the Pentagon has taken the nuclear football away from him.
I think the guy is so incompetent that if we get the Senate back next year they should skip impeachment and just invoke the 25th ammendment and remove him.
Question: is this possible?
Answer: 67
No.
He is a dictator.
