发帖数: 6571 | 2 According to reports from the White House, Barack Obama has instructed his
staff to clear his calendar for the month of October this year. Obama, who
is in his last four months in the White House, is apparently concerned that
a Republican President would overturn his legacy. Obamacare, EPA rules
against coal, green energy initiatives are all at risk for this President.
Just as Obama did when first elected to office, most opposite political
party Presidents spend their first 100 days in office overturning the
previous President’s executive orders and memorandums. Obama would much
prefer to preserve those executive mandates by helping Hillary Clinton
become America’s next President, and thus preserving his third term in
office.
Many sitting Presidents endorse a candidate for the Presidency when their
term is up; it is very rare for a President to actively campaign for someone
else.
So, for the entire month of October, President Obama plans to actively
campaign for Hillary Clinton, instead of focusing on the duties he was
elected for: the Security of our Country, Enforcing National Laws, Reduction
of the National Debt, etc.
The President’s Annual Salary is approximately $400,000, with additional
perks for travel and housekeeping. Air Force One costs approximately $180,
000 per hour to operate. FEC Rules are loosely interpreted, but require the
Political Party to repay the American people at a reduced rate if the
travel is purely political, and no requirement if there is “Government
Business” involved. The rules are “fuzzy” at best.
We the People are demanding Congress, as the sole authority of Federal
revenue, to withhold any salary and/or pension and/or travel expense amounts
from the President while he is actively campaigning for someone else.

To Congress:
When a lame duck President reaches his last few months in office he often
endorses a candidate from his party to secede him. Rarely however, does that
same lame duck President spend weeks or even months prior to the November
election actively campaigning for his successor.
President Obama has made it clear via White House staff, that his calendar
needs to be cleared for the month of October in order to actively campaign
around the country for Hillary Clinton. This is utter neglect for the duties
of which he was elected, specifically to protect the country from outside
attacks and to uphold the laws Congress has passed. Campaigning to ensure
his legacy is not justification for neglecting the duties he was elected to
fulfill.
We the People demand that Congress withhold President Obama’s salary,
pension, travel expenses, etc. for any time he spends actively campaigning
for Hillary Clinton between now and the election in November. The People of
the United States demand accountability for funding to public officials—all
bills related to revenue must begin in the House of Representatives.
