On the Edge of Impeachment: Sing: ‘Sleepers Awake!’
by Lyndon H. LaRouche, Jr.
The accumulating signs of mixed, but converging developments may not turn out to have been the overdue “Watergating” of President Obama; but, his violation of the War Powers Act “is complemented by a converging set of resonant developments, which could—mind you, ‘could’—be the early undoing of that President’s incumbency.”
