Properly framing a subject at debate

[unixronin]

Or, in which luxobscura asks a very pertinent question:

BAMBI'S MOM IS DEAD.  IS IT TOO MUCH TO ASK OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL SCHOLAR TO MOVE THE 2ND AMENDMENT DEBATE BEYOND DEER HUNTING, WHICH HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FRAMERS INTENT REGARDING SAID AMENDMENT?

I keep hearing from members of my friends list that Obama is a Constitutional scholar.  Yet he keeps trotting out the same old deer-and-ducks canard about the Second Amendment.

So:  Is he such a piss-poor Constitutional scholar that he honestly doesn't understand twenty-eight really rather simple words, or is he knowingly and intentionally trying to blow smoke up our asses?

He did, after all, issue a statement in which he claimed to support the United States Supreme Court's decision in Heller vs. DC stating that yes, Virginia, the Second Amendment does refer to an individual right, but even in that statement he clearly showed that he doesn't understand the meaning of the words "shall not be infringed."
