If he had to re-apply, he would probably have to lie on the paperwork again as far as any aliases or other AKA’s (Barry Dunham, Barry Soetoro, Barry Obama, Barack Obama), Barack Hussein Obama II, etc), and admission of drug use/abuse.

Real lawyers sometimes have to do a little productive work.

Well, maybe it’s because he doesn’t plan to step down if he becomes President, er “Chairman”, of the country, therefore would have no use for a law license. If he does, indeed, win this election, there will be no further elections, no Constitution to swear to protect and uphold, and eventually no citizen would have “standing” for any law suits at all. “The State” would rule on all cases.

If the “Democrats” retain their majority, or gain 60% of Congressional seats, O’s power would increase tenfold, and no filibusters would be possible. This sounds like absolute power to me. How about you?

LOL. Most of my time is spent raising kids and in church related activities. I can’t drink, because I found out alcohol was my migraine trigger. :(

It really killed me to shell out good money to attend the mandatory alcohol and substance abuse seminar every time I needed to renew. Here I was, the squeeky clean mama of three little children making my biennial treck to the big city to have a panel of reformed alcoholics and druggies lecture to me how to fight my addictions.

I wouldn't keep mine if I wasn't practicing law. I guess it depends on the jurisdiction, but it's usually not that hard to get it reinstated. Why pay the fees and keep up with the CLE classes if you aren't going to practice law? Obama will never have to practice law again. He'll stay in politics if he loses this election. If he wins, he'll be president for a few years and then make a fortune with books and speaking engagements. He's set.

Since all laws are based on the constitution, and 0bama thinks the constitution is fundamentially flawed against the poor and the oppressed, why bother?

Don’t want to hijack the thread but it sounds like you are from NC (me too). You are definitely not alone in your dislike of that requirement. I take the requirement all over the state to the smaller cities. Hopefully if you return to practice, I will meet you in a seminar (coming soon, to a city near you).

We have inactive status here in TX for a nominal fee...and no CLE reqts. In Mn, as long as I’m in TX, I can claim out-of-state inactive status as well, and pay no fees for MN...so just TX fees.

I’m in Ohio. Insanity reigns here as well, as we all know during this election cycle.

It’s Chicago. He knows how corrupt the Illinois bar really is and he simply seeks to put distance between himself and them.

That doesn't sound right. Ethics committees don't usually work secret deals with people like that. If there were any sort of disbarment proceedings against Obama, it would be all over the news.

Maybe he never actually had one. Maybe it was printed off a computer like his birth certificate.

How would we know when he won’t release any of his college records?

Obama believes that he won’t need his law license any more. He plans on being President for Life, just like his idols, Fidel Castro, Idi Amin Dada, Joseph Stalin and others.
This boy is going to be in for a rude awakening on November 5 when he figures out that he didn’t get elected.

“Law license is just a FRONT “

Maybe he was told to present a birth certificate.

Here is a link to an article about BOTH Barack and Michelle allowing their law licenses to lapse.

Michelle’s actually lapsed in 1993.

Everything seems to point back to Illinois for questionable jobs, housing upgrades, and who they spend time with, among other items. Very interesing article.
