Obama attorneys argue he’s not Dem nominee

SNIP

The arguments by Obama’s attorneys reflected their desire to have the judge simply dismiss the case because they claim a sitting president chosen by his party at multiple levels is not yet or officially the nominee.

Klayman accused them of running a “shell game” and simply trying to put off the issue, as numerous court cases did during the 2008 election, until the election was over and Obama was inaugurated.

The judge called the hearing on the issue of Obama’s eligibility because as part of the challenge, Klayman cited a definition of “natural born citizen,” which the Constitution requires of presidents, from the U.S. Supreme Court. Obama’s attorneys, however, simply said that didn’t apply but offered no further citations.

So they can't find any cases to cite that Zero is a NBC. I'm surprised they even bothered to show up.

The old "We ain't got nothing but forgeries defense" and the "We don't want to go up against the constitution, so lets drop it defense".
