Constitutional Succession
What happened in Honduras was not a Military Coup, it was the
equivalent of Impeachment proceedings, executed by the two branches of
the government, in favor of the people of Honduras that they
Represent. The reason for impeachment of the president is the
following:
1.The Constitution of Honduras does not allow for reelection
2.The Constitution of Honduras states that any intention to change
term of the presidency, or the non-relection clause is considered a
crime
3.Treason by any citizen of the country is punishable by law
4.The president of the country is a Citizen, and not above the law
5.Manuel Zelaya, by promoting to establish a public survey to change
the constitution to permit for reelection is in fact engaging in a
crime
6.The legislative and judicial branches of government are in their
complete jurisdiction to impeach the president if he is guilty of
treason
7.The Military executes orders based on the constitution, and the
constution gives them the power to arrest and bring the president to
the law, to be tried and convicted of his crimes.

It seems that President Mel Zelaya miscalculated when he tried to
emulate the success of his good friend Hugo Chavez in reshaping the
Honduran Constitution to his liking. *0baMa0 may be thinking he to can
circumvent the Constitution of the United States.

There should be no wonder in the fact that all the Liberal Fascist,
Socialist/Communist organizations, countries and diktators of the
world support ObaMa0 Tse Dung and his anti-Freedom, anti-American
Sovereignty agenda.
The OAS says the overthrow of an elected leader violates the Inter-
American Democratic Charter, signed in 2001 and ratified by all
members, including Honduras. Suspension from the OAS would be in line
with the charter’s articles 20 and 21, which deal with interruption of
democratic and constitutional order.
[...]
[A senior Obama administration official] called the OAS’s invoking of
the articles for the first time a “dramatic move” that “underscores
its commitment to democracy.”
Ironically, Zelaya just a month ago led a push by the OAS to lift a 47-
year-old resolution expelling communist Cuba from the regional
organization, a move which critics argued flew in the face of the 2001
charter.
The Obama administration joined the consensus, and sought to portray
the decision as a victory for diplomacy, given that some countries had
wanted to allow Cuba to return automatically and without conditions,
while the measure adopted envisages a “process of dialogue.”
Latin American scholars of various political hues generally agree that
the Honduran military’s actions on Sunday were illegal, but many also
stress that Zelaya’s own conduct played a key role in the crisis. Some
note that the OAS had little to say on Zelaya’s recent actions.
Since his election in 2006, Zelaya has moved to the left, and aligned
himself with the nine-nation Bolivarian Alliance for the Americas
(ALBA), a bloc led by Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.
In an echo of earlier maneuvering by Chavez and others, Zelaya sought
to amend the constitution to extend presidential term limits. He
defied both the Supreme Court and the Honduran legislature in pressing
for a referendum on the subject. When the head of the army last week
refused to help him carry out the illegal voting exercise, Zelaya
fired him – and then refused a Supreme Court order to reinstate him.
The court said Sunday it had ordered the army to remove the president
“to defend the rule of law,” and the National Assembly later in the
day appointed a new acting president to serve until January 2010, when
Zelaya’s term was to have ended.

Honduras' ambassador to Washington returned home and said he was
recognizing Micheletti's government. "This is not a coup d'etat, but
rather a process in which a judicial order has been carried out,"
envoy Roberto Flores Bermudez said.
