Do You Think President Obama Would Win a Third Term If He Could Run? [POLL]

According to the Washington Times, President Obama believes that if he ran for a third term he would win.

he president made his third-term prediction in a “60 Minutes” interview Sunday night when he said it was probably a good thing that he is constitutionally forbidden from serving beyond the eight-year maximum that was the custom until Franklin Delano Roosevelt won four terms, prompting the 22nd Amendment.

Mr. Obama believes voters would re-elect him if given the chance.

“I do,” the president said, though he went on to explain why he could, but shouldn’t, remain commander in chief through 2020.

“On the one hand, I am very proud of what we’ve accomplished and it makes me think, I’d love to do some more. But by the time I’m finished, I think it will be time for me to go. Because there’s a reason why we considered George Washington one of our greatest presidents,” he said. “He set a precedent, saying that when you occupy this seat, it is an extraordinary privilege, but the way our democracy is designed, no one person is indispensable.”

The comparison to Washington underscores how highly the president regards his own record, which he is increasingly highlighting as the end of his term nears.
