While at it, here are the relevant paragraphs of the Honduran Constitution:

ARTICULO 42.- La calidad de ciudadano se pierde:
5. Por incitar, promover o apoyar el continuismo o la reelección del Presidente de la República

and

ARTICULO 239.- El ciudadano que haya desempeñado la titularidad del Poder Ejecutivo no podrá ser Presidente o Vicepresidente de la República.

El que quebrante esta disposición o proponga su reforma, así como aquellos que lo apoyen directa o indirectamente, cesarán de inmediato en el desempeño de sus respectivos cargos y quedarán inhabilitados por diez (10) años para el ejercicio de toda función pública.
* Modificado por Decreto 299/1998.
* Modificado por Decreto 374/2002 y ratificado por Decreto 153/2003.

Now, I don't expect Pepe to grasp such subtle legal points (the pinko mind is not constituted to absorb information that may contradict in any shape or form the Party Line). But perhaps he can learn to read Spanish a bit?

With any luck, he and Zelaya will have diez (10) años to think it over.

My feeling is that the One will step in with Ruth Bader Ginsburg's help, and declare the Honduran Constitution unconstitutional.

Nosotros, Diputados electos por la voluntad soberana del pueblo hondureño, reunidos en Asamblea Nacional Constituyente, invocando la protección de Dios y el ejemplo de nuestros próceres, con nuestra fe puesta en la restauración de la unión centroamericana e interpretando fielmente las aspiraciones del pueblo que nos confirió su mandato, decretamos y sancionamos la presente Constitución..

"Protección de Dios"? Omigod! Quick, bring the smelling salts for Pepe. He's fainting.

No wonder Zelaya is trying to save them from obscurantism.

Perhaps Pepe will understand English a bit better: Title VII, with two chapters, outlines the process of amending the constitution and sets forth the principle of constitutional inviolability. The constitution may be amended by the National Congress after a two-thirds vote of all its members in two consecutive regular annual sessions. However, several constitutional provisions may not be amended. These consist of the amendment process itself, as well as provisions covering the form of government, national territory, and several articles covering the presidency, including term of office and prohibition from reelection.
