That is the problem that we are finding, the only entity that does any vetting of eligibility of any kind is the FEC. By Obama raising more money than he could with public financing, he sidestepped the FEC.

“If not, what would prevent a terrorist in sheep clothing to become President of our country. Any one can run and hide themselves under the cloak of purity, get elected and it is okay?”

That’s just the thing. It’s really hard to get elected president. Usually a lot harder than what Obama had to go through. You know, decades of public service, long record as national figure, intense press scrutiny. The way our electoral system works, I’m pretty sure they expect these sorts of issues to pop up during the election.

So, more often than not, the “get elected and it is okay” principle actually does work. Still, you’d think some authority somewhere—in Congress perhaps—would demand some sort of formal approval process. My feeling is the “vetting” should happen before a candidate’s name goes on the ballot.

Well hell, since they don’t give a rat’s a&& about the constitution, we can just hand over our guns.

And maybe we should arrest you for inferring a curse word.

And so on and so on and so on.

Oh yeah, and you are wrong, it ran on Aug 13, 1961.

And who stops the grandparents from running a birth announcement?

Yeah, the lawyers that are doing that are in Chicago and work for a law firm that Obama gave an award to.

Remember when Clinton marched his cabinet out on the WH lawn: the two gnomes, Reich/Shalala,

Until that moment, I always though Reich/Shalala were the same person ( she threw on the beard to make a Reich appearance ). You never saw them in the same room together :-)

No one expected the press and the world to go orgasmic over someone. Especially someone with no history.

I don’t understand either, but Republicans have allowed this to happen. I wonder about the reports of the FBI hiring Muslims with questionable backgrounds because they speak Farsi or whatever.

I also wonder why George W. Bush allowed CAIR access to the White House and gave them legitimacy that they obviously do not warrant.

While I am wondering, how did John McCain become the last man standing in that dozen Republicans who started the race for the presidency? Could anyone have run a more miserable campaign?

If this was a novel, it would be too cheesy a plot for anyone to believe it.

That's what they said about the Red Sox whipping the Yanks and winning it all in 2004.
"If it was a movie, it'd be a bad movie."

But it happened. Sure as hell. Just like Obama being born in Kenya. It happened.

Obama's mother could and probably would have obtained a valid Hawaiian Certification of Live Birth if Obama was born in Kenya. The information that is missing from the birth certificate widely posted on the Internet is exactly the information that would be missing had he been born in Kenya: the name of the Hawaiian hospital where he was born and the name of the physician who delivered him.

While it would embarrass a few Republicans like Alan Keyes for Obama to now document his status as a natural born citizen, the alternative is a Republican disaster. Obama's disqualification on what the MSM would describe as a technicality would produce tremendous and lasting public anger at Republicans.

If America still had investigative journalists instead of liberal propagandists, this issue would have been raised and settled a long time ago.

I hear what you are saying. It is late, it is complicated and I have been pissed off too long. Darn it.
God Bless America. Remember our soldiers.

“I believe you can google your State and Electoral College Electors and it will come up. Am I correct?”

There appears to be little value in contacting the electors. O’s hand-picked electors will not listen to anyone but O.

I urge folks to contact their state Republican politicians. Their local and D.C. addresses will be on your state Republican headquarters web page.

Recommend you fax your letter to all of your Republican Senators and Representatives, apparently snail mail is routed for security reasons to a location that clears it for contamination and that is time consuming and perhaps subjects it to mishandling.

Recommend you also give the state headquarters a call to verbally deliver your thoughts. We need to give the Republican the courage to step up and do their job.

Why don't you try this.

(1) Read my post. You know, the one you responded to.

(2) Notice that the information that I said was missing from the certificate that you linked, is in fact missing from the certificate that you linked. That certificate shows no hospital name and no physician.

(3) Then, if you have something of value to contribute to this thread, do so.
