The Fight of the Century: Obama vs. The Constitution

For a moment, pretend you have been given ringside seats to the fight of the century.

This battle, however, is nothing like any heavyweight match you have ever seen.

In the red corner stands the Constitution of the United States - a 223-year-old document forged in the aftermath of revolution; bought and paid for with the blood of patriots.

Not only does the Constitution define the structure and function of the federal government, it guarantees - in writing - the rights and freedoms that are to be enjoyed by every American.

It has weathered wars, bad Presidents, and bad court decisions. It has been changed and amended as needed to correct injustices like slavery and discrimination based on skin color or gender.

After more than two centuries, however, it remains the supreme legal document in the land.

In the blue corner stands Barack Hussein Obama - the 44th and current President of the United States.
