Roadside Activists Say Impeach Obama

A stand was set up on Tuesday morning outside of the 7-Eleven on Route 25a in Kings Park by members of a political action committee who said the'd like to see President Barack Obama impeached.

Matt Guice and Daniel Burke, members of LaRouche PAC, are hoping to gain some support and trumpet the political platform of Lyndon LaRouche, an eight-time presidential candidate, now 90, from the mid 70's until 2004.

Guice, a member of the movement for about 40 years, said his table is one of about 50 others out there on any given day across America.

Burke, a former Harlem school teacher, said he left that career to pursue the cause full-time.

"I noticed that since the news on Edward Snowden broke we have a much larger percentage of people under 30 who have come up to the table," he said.

When asked if he ever gets some angry responses, Guice said absolutely.

"Oh yeah. I always remind them that two fingers are better than one," said Guice.
