I don’t doubt he will vacate the office in 2016, that’s not the question.  It is all the powers he has amassed for the executive branch that worry me.  Remember the other major party has abused power as well: Nixon did this kind of thing 40 yrs ago.

Indeed not sir.  Godwin’s law is not applicable when one is making comparisons to actual political leaders.  Where Godwin’s law applies is in the absurd expansion of Hitler parallels.  

If we are disallowed from comparing any nation’s top executive to Hitler, then we learned exactly nothing from the bitter lessons of that dictator’s rise to power.
