This means he is eligible to hold the office...both parents US citizens.
I can see why they would want to cover up the identity of his real father.
I think so, but it’s just a guess.
I believe the sealing of his own records was Obama’s FIRST executive order. Therefore, can Trump rescind it & have a look?
The REPUBLICAN Governor of Hawaii, Linda Lingle, Permanently sealed his birth records. His grades Harvard and Occidental should be public. Clinton got away with his medical records and Dannye Williams will never prove paternity. John Kerry’s discharge papers from the military? Got away with that one too.
Which records?
All his presidential records that are not classified can be unsealed and those presidential records that are now classified will at some point become unclassified.
As far as his personal records go, those that are not associated with his time in government, the only person that can unseal those are Obama.
Sheriff Joe is about to do a press conference in a few days. 12/15. Says he has some new info.
There was a story on it tonight on Infowars. Something about proof of who Obama’s dad really is.
legally, I don’t think he can unseal personal records... although, an argument could be made that protecting such information falls under the no-funding-for-sanctuary cities/states/colleges policy
He is the president.
How can he not see what he wants to see? Obama will not be in power.
This means he is eligible to hold the office...both parents US citizens.
I can see why they would want to cover up the identity of his real father.
I think so, but requires a hearty run through a seeping tunnel, blinded by the sting of hard water and your dominant arm banging off ceiling rock.
If that is the case then no he cannot unseal those.
If you are talking about his time as President, then perhaps you missed this: White House starts moving Obama's records to Chicago, which means he is being denied access to them by removing them.
My guess is that the CIA and the FBI have files on Obama that probably shed light on many of the mysteries that continue to surround him.
I believe Obama did JUST THAT to GWBs sealed information.
Not my area of law, but unless sealed by a court or law, yes.
In the event of a court seal, then a DOJ action “in the compelling national interest” would succeed in most cases.
In the case of law (rather rare,) absent a harder to get court order, no.
The only records I care to see are the ones that indicate whether he was admitted as a foreign student at Occidental...and his GPA at Occidental, Columbia and Harvard. He was promoted as tbe smartest person ever to be President. I want to see proof.
I would also like to know who paid his way into Harvard and what his LSAT scores were.
By agreement and rule, even when out of office, presidents retain effective control over the records of their administration, subject though to various record disclosure requirements and schedules.
He can’t do anything about the birth records in Hawaii, but I remember there was actually some focus on his passport records. I think there was a DC cop who might’ve had them, and died, crazy stuff like that. But he would be able to get to those I think.
He will have the spooks. They can get anything.
I don’t want it to even appear that Trump considered using sealed records against anyone. much less actually do it. BUT I have no problem with (for openness) to direct his people to fully honor FOIA requests. Hell I don’t even have a problem with Him tweeting out subtle hints like; “interesting FOIA search “Barry O’’Bomber” , just say’n”....
See #46.
I don’t know for sure about the President being able to do that, but I’m certain, a First Lady can.
