Simple "Yes" or "No": If Obama could assume Chavez-esque dictatorial powers
Do you think he would?
I am leaning towards saying yes.
Also, this "Rob" guy seems like a fricking idiot.

You of course are their leader.

You know how I know that you are a dumbass? Because if you chopped chicken little's head off he wouldn't be able to cry about Wolfbama.

I feel as if that is what he has been trying to get to all along.

It is hilarious that of the libs that have posted in this thread, less than half have actually answered the question posed.
Of those that have not, Rex, asurob1 and VB have consistently failed to answer despite multiple posts in the thread. Others have simply followed their lead and attacked me, or others, as being loons (oh, and the one post of threads where W JOKED about it). Your respective refusal to answer speaks volumes.

VB, Tuba and ARob are societal outcasts who live to do nothing more than create friction. They do not debate so much as they slime the board.

With Obama it's all about looking behind the curtain. He can bullsh!t the uninformed masses with his rhetoric, but it's all a smokescreen for what's happening down at the cabinet level with his cabinet departments -- pretty much all of them.
Almost everything in his speech last night was a lie -- couched in dog whistles for his far left Kool-Aid drinkers (see, e.g., Rex, VOR, VB and the rest of the Obamaidiots). Yeah, we all know that they "don't really like Obama that much," but just say something bad about their Messiah and they come out swinging.

He's already filed the paper work to run for a third term.

Absolutely. What disturbs me about the Bamster is that some folks are actually applauding his "leadership" for ignoring the separation of powers and the Constitution.

"Swinging"...with what...name calling.
As soon as Obama invented 'Czars'...it became obvious that he planned to change the traditional, Constitutional model of governance. By DEGREE, of course, with no grand coup.
But to the OP's query...Obama would go total Authoritarian Socialist in a NY second. But he would claim 'Democratic' authority having won a legit election. Just - like - Morsi
And it is post like this one - relating the Morsi election to EXACTLY what Obama did re the ACA - that'll bring out the paltry few name-caller Progs that still remain on this board...because they just can not let it go. It is personal...an ego thing. We whack their Socialism baby, and it hurts bad. BTW, fresh meat and a good workout.

I'm not sure whether Obama would reign as Dictator.
The more disturbing question is this: If Obama WERE to be elevated to a position where he possessed full executive, legislative and judicial authority, would the Democrat Party and their fellow travelers object?
I'm not sure that Obama wants it, but, I fear that too many on the Left would love for the USA to have a Left Wing Dictator.

The REAL problem for Obama...would be if he GOT what he wishes for, Champ. There is one helluva difference between Idealistic/Ideological THEORY...and application of said ideas.
Hell, they couldn't do a frickin WEBSITE, with virtually UNLIMITED bucks to spend on it.
The 'Great Uniter'...is a DREAMER. His Ideology/ideas are FLAWED. Thereby limiting his ability to persuade and unity. He is REALIZING this. Therein the frustration, and desire for illegitimate authority.
He LIED...full-view, big time, about big stuff that will deal serious hurt next year. It's all over save the curtain falling. The rest is just saving face and taking a bow. Then the eggs.
