A Constitutional law professor (even their students) should know better. The TRUTH is Obama was not a Constitutional law professor, and clearly he has not respected or protected the Constitution. Obama has broken his oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. Article II, Section 1.
Note: Executive Orders by the president were not designed for, nor do they give a president the authority to use as, a means to override or alter legislation or any other Constitutional violation.
Q: Was Barack Obama really a constitutional law professor?
A: His formal title was “senior lecturer,” but the University of Chicago Law School says he “served as a professor” and was “regarded as” a professor.
FULL QUESTION
When I was in law school, I addressed all of my course instructors as “professors,” regardless of their rank or formal position in the school academic hierarchy (tenured professor, assistant professor, adjunct professor, lecturer, etc.). Was Obama exaggerating or factually wrong in referring to himself as a “constitutional law professor” at the University of Chicago Law School even though his official title was lecturer?
FULL ANSWER
Sen. Obama, who has taught courses in constitutional law at the University of Chicago, has regularly referred to himself as “a constitutional law professor,” most famously at a March 30, 2007, fundraiser when he said, “I was a constitutional law professor, which means unlike the current president I actually respect the Constitution.” A spokesman for the Republican National Committee immediately took exception to Obama’s remarks, pointing out that Obama’s title at the University of Chicago was “senior lecturer” and not “professor.”
Recently, Hillary Clinton’s campaign has picked up on this charge. In a March 27 conference call with reporters, Clinton spokesman Phil Singer claimed:
Singer (March 27): Sen. Obama has often referred to himself as “a constitutional law professor” out on the campaign trail. He never held any such title. And I think anyone, if you ask anyone in academia the distinction between a professor who has tenure and an instructor that does not, you’ll find that there is … you’ll get quite an emotional response.
The campaign also sent out an e-mail quoting an Aug. 8, 2004, column in the Chicago Sun-Times that criticized Obama for calling himself a professor when, in fact, the University of Chicago faculty page listed him as “a senior lecturer (now on leave).” The Sun-Times said, “In academia, there is a vast difference between the two titles. Details matter.” The Clinton campaign added that the difference between senior lecturers and professors is that “professors have tenure while lecturers do not.”
We agree that details matter, and also that the formal title of “professor” is not lightly given by academic institutions. However, on this matter the University of Chicago Law School itself is not standing on formality, and is siding with Obama.
Due to numerous press inquiries on the matter, the school released a carefully worded statement saying that for his 12 years there he was considered to be “a professor.”
UC Law School statement: The Law School has received many media requests about Barack Obama, especially about his status as “Senior Lecturer.” From 1992 until his election to the U.S. Senate in 2004, Barack Obama served as a professor in the Law School. He was a Lecturer from 1992 to 1996. He was a Senior Lecturer from 1996 to 2004, during which time he taught three courses per year. Senior Lecturers are considered to be members of the Law School faculty and are regarded as professors, although not full-time or tenure-track. The title of Senior Lecturer is distinct from the title of Lecturer, which signifies adjunct status. Like Obama, each of the Law School’s Senior Lecturers have high-demand careers in politics or public service, which prevent full-time teaching. Several times during his 12 years as a professor in the Law School, Obama was invited to join the faculty in a full-time tenure-track position, but he declined.
The only ones who know Obama is not a joke is Obama and his remaining progressive followers.
Just read there are eleven doctors running for Congress to get ObamaCare repealed. We all need to support them.
If you haven’t seen Trey Gowdy eviscerate Obama’s understanding and adherence to the Constitution watch this video.

Clearly how government works is a mystery, Clearly if the ACA was Unconstitutional the Bought Out SCOTUS would not have said it was constitutional.
LOL Tke that stuf to Congress and get a lesson on excutive orders and how many GW used.
Now speaking of the Constitution here is a direct Quote by Scalia that all by itself says he could care less about the Constitution.
The First Amendment reads, “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
Justice Scalia went as far as to say that, “You can raise it [the First Amendment], but we don’t have to listen to it.”
Now Scotus can decide a case and give the argument but to so the following and say they do not have to listen is disgusting
LOL you guys are being led by the nose al la Koch lol ya think they would have brought all that up in congress if it mattered!
Funny how Tea party peeps who go to Koch Classes to learn the constutuion come up with this stuff with no full understanding of how it all works and all the laws.
LOL tea party peeps are the smartest people in the world and all the lawyers in DC are dumb
get over it we like the ACA and do not believe that the only people who use money with no labor involved to make money should run the world.
We like democracy and Dictatorship lost the last election

Dewey…what a shame…you started out so well.
Wow Jack. That is one heckuva list. The corruption of the executive is breathtaking. No wonder Mark Levin has been on board for impeachment.

Turley: Obama’s “Become The Very Danger The Constitution Was Designed To Avoid”
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2013/12/04/turley_obamas_become_the_very_danger_the_constitution_was_designed_to_avoid.html
Re#1 Peggy: Great stuff. Thanks!
Readers can view a complete list of George W. Bush’s executive orders at GWB White House. Every order can be read by simply clicking on a link.
I’ve excerpted a portion of EO #21 that suggests Bush opened opportunities for competitive bid through executive order:
GWB-White House
Over at Real Clear Politics Constitutional Professor Jonathan Turley, Democrat and Obama supporter, said in testimony before Congress, “Obama’s “Become The Very Danger The Constitution Was Designed To Avoid”.
Opps…sorry for the redundancy. As I went to post comments I noticed Pie had already posted this.
Re #2 (Dewey’s latest screed):
Evidently Dewey does not understand the difference between executive orders and executive orders that break the law and violate the constitution.
Following Dewey’s usual highly contorted logic: Since GW Bush issued executive orders that renders Obama a pass to flout the constitution with illegal actions, be they executive orders or refusal to uphold law.
Interesting thesis, no? Does Dewey’s sort of reasoning makes you want to vomit? Dewey is a paradigm of progressive cogitation to say the least.
Re: #7 Tina:
Great minds think alike, sister. 😉
Dewey understand more than ya think
take your case to a constitutional lawyer and watch the case fail!
Look tea party wants to end social security and is working on it. So just say it and let the people vote GW did and he lost that vote
Dewey: “take your case to a constitutional lawyer and watch the case fail!”
There are a number of Constitutional lawyers and scholars that agree with us.
“tea party wants to end social security ”
That is blatantly false. The proposals made would secure the old failing system with a new one that gives workers the choice to invcest some of their hard earned cash into the same type of pension plans that Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, the President and other’s in government enjoy. It would also allow them to pass whatever is left in their personal account to their children or donate it as they please.
An article at Freedomworks addresses the issue and highlights three Texas counties that adopted such a plan for their employees. the results would please any retiree:
GW lost that battle because of the lies and distortions the left make to keep power and control in Washington DC.
Also from the linked page a reminder:
It’s a great article with a number of interesting links. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in the idea of growing a personal nest egg.
Re #10 Dewey “Dewey understand more than ya think”
Dewey’s imitation of Jimmy in “The Jimmy” Seinfeld episode is a scream.
Dewey understand he is is a dope like Jimmy.
By his actions, Obumble obviously slept through his class on the Constitution
And any students taking a Constitution class from him would’ve been able to catch up on their sleep time, too.
