There are two problems for Obama and the country regarding use of the 14th. First, he has previously announced that his attorneys advised him, it is an illegal action. He didn't say it was illegal. This is what he said: "I have talked to my lawyers," said Obama. “They are not persuaded that that is a winning argument.” That leaves the option on the table. So the action would be challenged and he would likely lose based on his own previously stated premises. Second, if he could successfully stop the bill with the 14th, no one would loan the US money when the action would surely be challenged and possibly declared illegal at some future moment. Then we would have no bill to stop the default and no new money/debt to pay our bills. If the debt ceiling is not raised, that will happen anyways. So why not risk the 14th amendment option?
