Legal Ranglings Continue Over Barack Obama Birth Certificate
The case of the Barack Obama missing birth certificate is heating up as a federal court has agreed to hear the case.
The US Supreme Court will hear the case which is aimed at figuring out if newly elected President of the United States Barack Obama is actually an American citizen.
He contends that he was born in Hawaii, and owns a legit birth certificate, a fact that Hawaii officials agree with.
Hawaii officials say that Obama’s real birth certificate is locked away in a state vault and that if necessary they can provide it.
There have been many lawsuits filed by oponents of Obama, the majority of them cast aside by judges due to lack of supporting evidence.
This most recent suit was filed by Alan Keyes, who lost to Obama in the 2004 Senate race in Illinois.
His council has subpoenaed Obama’s official birth certificate from the Hawaii Health Department who will be forced to hand it over.
It would be the height of absurdity to not completely check all of his records at this point. If they do not, they will risk the country of the United States and its political system and its constitution being made a MOCKERY of by a scam artist of gigantic proportions.
Remember these key points.
One is not supposed to change the law if someone stands to gain immediately and directly from it.
It is not a human right to be eligible to run for POTUS.
The United States does not owe the world the right to let anyone be eligible to run for POTUS.
These last 2 points were made because those issues are bound to come up.
I wonder how Obama’s lawyers will try to say no the SCOTUS. The whole situation is ridiculous. Out of respect for the Constitution and the voters, Obama should have provided his real birth certificate the first time he was asked.
If Obama is not a US citizen and is allowed to be President of the United States of America, then, in effect, the Constitution is null and void. God help us!
Chief Justice Roberts has enough integrity to make absolutley certain that he will not be swearing in someone Constitutionally inieligible to be President. When the Supreme Court rules that BO is ineligible to be President, they will direct the electors to vote for anyone except Obama. In all likelihood Hillary will become our next president. This will not result in any “crisis”. Obama has already selected a cabinet filled with old Clintonistas, so it would be a real smooth “transition”. The blacks will be pacified by arranging for their Messiah to be appointed Secretary of State.
It seems something as important as being a citizen of this country would not be overlooked when a candidate registers to run for the office of the President of the United States of America the most Awesome! country in the world! Who is checking who?
Wow, you all must really hate this country to be critcizing the president-elect. You want America to fail. Why don’t you go back to whichever country your ancestors came from!
