RE: It’s In the Constitution
If he was born outside the United States or U.S. territories, this might indeed have been a legitimate Constitutional issue. The problem with this theory is that no one has been able to provide any credible evidence that Barack Obama was born anywhere other than Hawaii. — Bob Owen
Too funny.
Every other job in the government I’m familiar with one has to prove they are eligible to hold. With the exception of the highest one, President of the United States.
I asked my state’s Secretary of State whether or not they require proof of eligibility to run for that office. This is what they said in reply….
First, please understand that, pursuant to Colorado statute, the process
of nominating and certifying presidential candidates to the ballot is
party-oriented; candidates are certified to the state and, therefore,
the legal responsibility for confirming citizenship (or any other
qualification) lies with the certifying entity. Any questions regarding
the qualifications of a presidential candidate should be directed to the
parties, who are the certifying entities in this case.Second, if you wish to challenge the qualifications of a Presidential
candidate, the proper forum is the district court, not the Secretary of
State’s office. Because the nomination and certification of candidates
is purely a party function, this office lacks the authority to
investigate complaints levied against a particular candidate’s
eligibility or qualifications for office. Please see section 1-4-909,
C.R.S., for more information regarding challenges to a candidate’s
qualifications.In sum, please direct any inquiries regarding the qualifications of
candidates to the respective parties. If you wish to challenge these
qualifications, you must do so in district court. — Colorado Secretary of State, Elections Division dated 9 Dec 08
It’s pretty obvious that all the Colorado Secretary of State does is accept whomever the state party offers. No questions asked. They would have accepted Arnold the Governator or even Saddam Hussein or Vladimir Putin, if the party offered them.
In other words, the Colorado Secretary of State, a Republican by election, absolves itself of ANY responsibility in this sort of matter. And I find that an abdication of obvious responsibility in a matter as important as this. It’s a loop-hole one could drive a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, along with attending escort ships through, and the admiral wouldn’t lose a moments sleep.
And I’m pretty confident that most other states, if not all, have the same loop-hole.
RE: The Birth Certificate
The item offered by the Obama campaign at their Fight the Smears site is not a Birth Certificate. Furthermore, it is missing all of the following:
• No name of attending physician
• No name of hospital or location of birth
• No number of children born at the time
• No official seal
• No signatures
Furthermore, there are other anomalies associated with that document:
• The birth certificate looks rather ‘new’, i.e., no aging whatsoever…..
• The print on the image appears to be from a computer. I didn’t know they had computers like that in 1961
• In the lower left-hand corner, there appears to be the word “LASER”. Did they have lasers in 1961 doing printing?
• If this is a reprint, where is the signature of the official who endorses it as authentic?
RE: Hawaiian Officials Statements
We’ve heard that a number of state officials have said there is a ‘valid document’. Well, there are some things about state officials.
[1] They often lie. Especially when they are not under oath. I recall earlier this week an official in Ohio reported that she was “ordered to lie” to investigators about whether or not her office had illegally looked into ‘Joe the Plumbers’ martial/divorce records.
[2] Half-truths are another matter. Saying there is a ‘valid document’ and not specifying what document they are referring to could give them an out.
In addition to that, I went to the Hawaiian Revises Statutes web-site and found that ALL the items I searched for relating to Birth Certificates were not available for review. Got a 404 error on every item of the 41 found I clicked on. I find that rather ‘odd’. Especially in light of the report on Rick Moran’s thread from earlier this week that anyone who is a resident of Hawaii can get a Certificate of Live Birth.
And, as I said, the one offered by the Obama campaign has no signatures, so it has no value in a court of law.
Just some thoughts on the one item that I think is valid.
If Obama IS a natural-born citizen of the United States, this whole matter could be easily dealt with. BRING FORTH THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
The only reason I can think of that he has not done so is there is something VERY ‘embarrassing’ about the document. And I would suggest that it is one of these two possibilities:
[1] Maybe it doesn’t exist.
Or
[2] Maybe hs real mother’s name is “Barney Frank”, or something similar.
Until the matter is properly resolve, BEFORE he has control of the CIA and FBI—which are very good at faking documents—I consider him to be an ‘illegal alien’.
So, I call on you to ask that the Electoral College refrain from casting their ballots UNTIL AFTER they have been proven beyond any shadow of a doubt that Senator Barack Hussein Obama IS a natural-born citizen.
Anything less is a travesty.

Chuck(le)
