April Fool? 2004 Presidential Election Canceled
Bush Cites National Security Concerns, Inconvenience
WASHINGTON, April 1 - President Bush announced today that the 2004 presidential election will be canceled due to the war on terrorism and other scheduling conflicts.
Although the U.S. Constitution expressly mandates that presidential elections be held every four years, a little-known clause in the USA Patriot Act, which Congress hastily approved in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, gives the sitting president the option to cancel a presidential election and remain in office indefinitely if he deems it in the national interest.
In a brief statement from the Oval Office, Bush said, ""A dictatorship would be a heck of a lot easier, there's no question about it," adding, "My administration is where our nation finds hope, where wings take dream."------------------------------------------- posted 11:47 AM :: reference link ::
