That would mean martial law would be in effect and all powers to the people would be nullified.

So much for democracy...
Haven't had my consitutional law class yet, but I'm not sure that the President can suspend his term limits simply by declaring that there is a 'national emergency.'

- nor can Congress. I think you'd probably need a new amendment for that.
