(Sep. 29, 2011) — Supporting and defending the Constitution and upholding the rule of law are no longer items on the Republican agenda.
According to Article II, Section I, Clause 5 of the Constitution and the Supreme Court binding precedent in Minor vs. Happersett (1874), Barack Hussein Obama has never been eligible to be President of the United States.
To hide his ineligibility, Obama has produced a forged Certificate of Live Birth, uses a Social Security number not issued to him and condoned the distribution of a forged Selective Service registration.
Despite being fully aware of the overwhelming evidence corroborating Obama’s guilt, the Republican leadership has ordered its Congress members to ignore constituents’ requests for investigations.
The Republican strategy is to use the Big Stall to cover up the Big Lie.
Political expediency, complicity and fear are the drivers for Republican malfeasance.
Like Democrats, Congressional Republicans consider the Constitution an inconvenient obstacle to their exercise of power. They have long wanted a “flexible” and “living” Constitution, which can be reinterpreted according to their own whims or adjusted to whatever political winds might be blowing at the moment.

Everyone must keep in mind that the ruling republican elites have been in bed with the left for many years. I have been saying what this article says for the last two years.
bump
If Minor vs. Happersett (1874) is “binding precedent” and no-one’s following it, then why dontcha take it up with the Supremes and see if they agree that it’s still “binding precedent?”
I share in the experience which you talk about.
They don’t want to take it up.
yawn......
November 2012 will be the quickest remedy
There is no binding precedent for this issue. No court has ever heard a case for or against it. The closest you could come with a case is just about citizenship but no president has ever been taken to court on this issue. Neither side can pull up a case because the courts and congress will not address it. The courts, legislature and president are all punting it down the road. They are all gutless and treasonous because they will not address it.
The constitution is interpreted by the Supreme Court, not the Republican party. All that can be accomplished by tilting at this windmill, besides a satisfying feeling of self-righteousness, is to boost Obama's popularity at the polls.
PING
Of course the Republicans won’t address this problem. And why would they? Anyone who understands the issue will be voting Republican.
A Democrat problem unaddressed and unresolved is like money (votes) in the bank for the Republican party.
Solet’s see, instead they do not answer our questions and do not go public with what they know so they can inform the owners of the government.
We have had a coop in America, our government has been overthrown, and the republican leadership is in bed with them. Just look at the Lame duck deal, the super committee and the phony buget deal of Bone-us
Anyone who thinks that the current AG holder would take this issue up to get rid of 0 bummer is nuts. There would be race riots until 2016.
Its probably best to just it pass by word of mouth but in determining who is a “better” candidate is his or hers opinion on this and how they chose to go after it.
If Perry was elected POTUS would he pursue?
Would Romney,Christie,or anyone else?
Did Bachman ever hint she would make it a priority?
I bet Cain sure will go after it like a pit bull, and so will Sarah Palin. With her she will make it absolutely ironclad in the future just exactly what requirements must be met to be elected POTUS, most importantly to prevent a non-loyal person from slipping through the cracks.
I believe in my heart both Sarah Pain and Cain will pursue any and all criminal prosecutions against Obama, especially his multiple SS numbers.
Oh my....forgot the primary driver/reason!! And it has been and is so very clear too!
COWARDICE!!
The uncertainty about Senator John McCain’s eligibility for the Presidency was resolved in April 2008 by the bogus, non-binding Senate Resolution 511, co-sponsored by Obama, which declared McCain a natural born citizen
Good find. The article could explain a lot things, including how McCain became the standard bearer, thus giving us the eminently qualified socialist reformer, Presdent obama.
And, it could explain the spirited defense of obama's eligibility by many here.
I had thought the only reason the ruling class repubs wouldn't address obama's citizenship is because obama appears to be black. Gutless in the face of peer pressure is one thing, but this is another level.
If true, it also means the Republican party, along with the demonrats, has lost its remaining claims to legitimacy and we need and are ready for a third party of those who can uphold their oaths of office.
If it was a non-binding resolution then how could it have resolved anything?
Minor v. Happersett defined the term natural-born citizen specifically in refence to Art II, Sec I of the Constitution. They rejected a citizenship argument based on the 14th amendment because it is trumped by those who are natural born citizens. The Wong Kim Ark case quoted the definition, affirmed that it was dependent on citizen parents and avoided declaring a person born in the country to foreign subjects a natural born citizen. Based on this, the court should have a pretty hard time arguing that natural born means anything but being born in the country to citizen parents. Further, Wong Kim Ark distinguished mere citizenship by birth as being different from natural born citizenship. The precedent is strong how it is defined and how it is NOT defined.
Political expediency, complicity and fear are the drivers for Republican malfeasance.
Obama, with the backing of international socialists has in essence overtrown our representative republic form of government, which was facilitated by the Republicans with the selection of McCain as the opposing candidate. Their plan was almost thwarted with the unexpected popularity of Gov Palin, which triggered immediate attacks on her by the GOP elite and the attacks continue which indicates how real a threat she is to the usurpers.
