Back in October of 2008, when the subject of Obama's Constitutional eligibility to be president of the United States was just a blip on the radar screen of public awareness, I wrote an article about how easy it was to find my then -92-year-old mother's birth certificate.
Frankly, I didn't think finding my mother's birth certificate was possible, given the fact that she had been born in a farmhouse in Storrs, CT, along with nine of her 10 siblings, to parents who didn't speak English. Despairing that she would never be "qualified" to receive the care [in a nursing home} that she desperately needed, I set about to find the document, which I was sure had vanished in the unreliable record-keeping of 1913.
When I called the third number, I explained to the woman who answered the phone that I was "asking something impossible." I gave her my mother's first name and her father's last name. Within four minutes, she said, "Here it is!" When I expressed my amazement, the woman said: "That's nothing...we're routinely asked to find birth certificates from the 1800s, and we do that all the time!" Total time it took me to find my mother's 1913, born-in-a-farmhouse birth certificate: 10 minutes!

I went through the same thing in 1995 with my then 70 year old Mother in Texas. My father did everything for her throughout her life so she never felt the need to have it. When she discovered she wasn’t even sure of her exact age, she asked me to help her. Took 2 days. No big deal.
we need only half that many in DC and all new ones
I found my father’s birth certificate (he was born in a tenement apartment in NYC in 1922) and my grandmother’s birth certificate (she was born in a tiny village in Italy in 1894).
Took a few minutes for my father’s and a few hours for my grandmother’s.
You can bet it would be a very good forgery.
“This article has been posted before. “
Yes, and thank you for posting it again. I have been looking for it. The article articulates the person(s) behind Obama.
As Glenn Beck said “There is someone or some organization behind Obama.
You make good points -- but didn't Obama sign applications under the penalty of perjury for the Office of President in the 50 states declaring that he was a "natural born citizen" and thus qualified under the Constitution for the Office???
If he knew the difference but signed those applications anyway, then what does that make him???
Of course he knows the difference between native and natural born. He was on the Senate resolution committee (511) in which was discussed McCain’s eligibility and the need for both parents to be US citizens. He was there. His name is on the resolution. There is no sneaking out the back door on this one. He “supposedly” graduatated from law school so ignorance is no excuse.
Interesting article. It points a lot of fingers and raises a lot of questions as well as adding even more to the whole birth certificate issue (yes, I am a “birther”).
The very facts cited in the article are the reasons why I don’t believe that we can resolve the current status of our government via the ballot box alone. zero tacitly acknowledged his endorsement of thugs when he had AG Holder dismiss all charges against the PA thugs who invaded a polling place and threatened the voters in line to vote for zero. This sends a loud, strong message that the mid-terms, if we even have them next year, will be conducted in battle zones between zero’s thugs and independence-oriented, frrdom-loving, pistol-packing ordinary Americans.
FWIW, IMO, to stop zero and his radical communist agenda will take a rebellion by the citizens. Our choices are either that, or surrendering to the tyranny and oppression of the zero/$oros cabal. I still think freedom and liberty are causes worth defending and, if necessary, dying for. To be sure, we should continue to try to work within our system of government but, from all appearances, our system of government has completely failed and is devoted to the suppression and subjugation of us all.
“— but didn’t Obama sign applications under the penalty of perjury for the Office of President in the 57 states declaring that he was a “natural born citizen”
I think I fixed it.
First, he seals his records.
Next, he threatens the voters and the media.
Then, no judge will touch an eligibility case.
What’s next? Oh, yeah, pull the plug on the internet so the citizens can’t share information or form a revolution.
It’s not just coming, it’s here. We just haven’t been loaded on the boxcars... yet.
“We just haven’t been loaded on the boxcars... yet.”
That’s ominous!
Some friends were getting Irish passports and needed their parents’ and grandparents’ birth certificates. It was time consuming getting the parents’ certificates in Boston but it took a ten minute telephone call to Ireland to get them for the grandparents.
About Obama there is no doubt. He is not a natural-born citizen. We don't care whether or not Obama is a U.S. citizen. He has provided all the evidence needed on his on web sites and in his books. His father was not a citizen. Our Constitution, contrary to the smokescreen from obots, is clear, as interpreted at least a dozen times. Born on U.S. soil of parents who are its citizens. The confusion has allowed the enemies of our Constitution to get us talking. We need to educate - to communicate the simple truth and force our representatives to act appropriately: Obama is not a legitimate president. Every bill, every appointment, every corporate takeover has been executed outside of our legal system. Obama’s team seems to be acting with the confidence that our Constitution is dead, and there will be no reprisals. It will indeed be very hard to reconstruct GM, or Chrysler, or Lehman Brothers, or ... The one unassailable fact is that Obama was born a British Citizen, because his father was a British Citizen. We don't need to know anything more. It is time to act.
His discovery was that in 200+ years our state and federal legal systems largely depended upon trust to vet the qualifications of the president and vice president. Obama could become a senator because it seemed he was a citizen, and everyone assumed he was born in Hawaii. Right or wrong, even anchor babies can become senators. It didn't matter that he also had an Indonesian or British passport. That may be the reason all those documents were sealed or purged before his run for the presidency. That may also be the reason Obama feels reasonably safe taking office, fully knowing he is not a natural-born citizenship. He can say, honestly, they knew because I told everyone, and still wanted me to be president. He can say, and Cass Sunstein will say, and Larry Tribe will say, “We think Article II Section 1 is outdated in this new globalist world.” He even had an attorney, Sarah Herlihy, working for a law firm, Kirkland and Ellis, which works for his campaign committee, write a Chicago Kent Law Review article in 2006 making just that point.
Please do check yourself. The site making the claim is here: http://jbjd.wordpress.com/ Jbjd’s explainations satisfy my puzzlement that Obama, living a life of luxury, would risk imprisonment by falsifying some usually meaningless documents. He is good at details. Jbjd provides a plausible answer - he didn't. Occam's razor.
But Obama didn't need to be an expert at natural-born citizenship details. Obama’s law firm, Kirkland and Ellis also provided the legal support for McCain while McCain's status as a natural-born citizen was being examined. McCain was being funded by Soros through several organizations, presumably around the McCain Feingold bill. Does anyone doubt that Kirkland and Ellis, also the source of the “Amending the Natural-born Citizen Requirement of Article II...” Kent Law Review article from 2006, written by their associate, Sarah Herlihy, may be the country's legal experts on the details of natural-born citizenship. You can be certain they were paid lots and lots of money by Republicans to find a loophole so that McCain could run. They didn't find a loophole, but the Dems helped with a phoney Senate Resolution 511 which appeared to make McCain legitimate.
This is pay-to-play. I don't have the list of contracts secured by Kirkland and Ellis now that their guy is in The White House, but they had both bases covered, providing senior partner Christopher Landau, who was also on the McCain Justice Advisory Committee. I doubt that they will benefit from civil war, loss of our Bill of Rights, or nuclear war in the Middle East. Kirkland & Ellis is just doing what law firms do.
The most important thing we can now do is to communicate the simple message that Obama is not a constitutional president. His father was not a U.S. Citizen. It is very simple - much simpler than trying to uncover Obama’s labyrinthine history. His mother's is even harder to trace. It is all fascinating, but the critical issue is Obama’s ineligibility
