The Constitution requires that the President SHALL be a natural born Citizen, and he is clearly not, by the facts already in attendance, and admitted by Obama himself. Born a Brit means not eligible.Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02864660386925998491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-14357900239798619162011-05-19T08:37:50.943-05:002011-05-19T08:37:50.943-05:00John Jay wrote to George Washington, then Presidin...John Jay wrote to George Washington, then Presiding Officer of the Constitutional Convention, on July 25th, 1787:<br /> <br /><br />“Permit me to hint, whether it would be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the Commander in Chief of the American Army shall not be given to nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen.”<br /><br /><br />The prevention of foreigners? Hmmm, so tell me how allowing a dual citizen to be POTUS achieves that goal. And how is one born of a foreign father, who was NEVER a citizen, a Creature of our own, as described by Hamilton in Federalist 68? Obama will be prevented from running in the next election. He is not eligible, and he, and all of Congress know it.Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02864660386925998491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-7180593883960565832011-05-19T08:33:13.810-05:002011-05-19T08:33:13.810-05:00Seven Machos said...

We must know"<br /><br /><br />You never answered, because you can't. Silly Premise? Here is Alexander Hamilton in Federalist 68 talking about the requirement of natural born Citizen (FACT-- he first proposed that the POTUS be BORN a Citizen):<br /><br />"Nothing was more to be desired than that every practicable obstacle should be opposed to cabal, intrigue, and corruption. These most deadly adversaries of republican government might naturally have been expected to make their approaches from more than one querter, but chiefly from the desire in foreign powers to gain an improper ascendant in our councils. How could they better gratify this, than by raising a creature of their own to the chief magistracy of the Union? But the convention have guarded against all danger of this sort, with the most provident and judicious attention."<br /><br />The most provident and judicious action was to require the POTUS to be a natural born Citizen, w/ singular allegiance to the US, born of 2 US Citizen parents, from birth.<br /><br />Logic is a biotch isn't it.

Plus Obama wouldn't have had a convenient Republican to blame all of America's troubles on.<br /><br />(2): It was the veterans who co-authored and contributed to Corsi's book that really hurt Kerry, not Corsi himself.

You should present your arguments to them, should Obama get re-elected. Since the Constitution specifically commits the election of the President to the Electoral College, picked in accordance with each state's legislature, and subject to selection by the House of Representatives in the event no majority, no court has the power to decide the issue. It is called in the trade the Political Question doctrine. When the Constitution specifically sets forth who decides an issue, here the Electoral College, then it is up to them. <br /><br />Good luck convincing any of them of your theory, Mick."<br /><br /><br /><br />The electoral college failed. But I wasn't asking you about the electoral college. I was asking you a question, which of course you refuse to answer, just like everyone else, because it reveals the vapidity of your silly argument. Congress could investigate the obviously fake LFBC,and the Senate could impeach. Or, as outlined in the 25th Amendment, Quo Warranto could be executed in the DC district, so the Electoral College is certainly not the final word.<br /><br />But then obviously you failed Con Law, or you could answer the question, or maybe you don't want to, since it would make you look silly.Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02864660386925998491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-31048150705451610812011-05-18T15:37:00.044-05:002011-05-18T15:37:00.044-05:00Mick appears to be pretty dumb and he keeps to typ...Mick appears to be pretty dumb and he keeps to type almost without fail.
