At least now we know why the GOP elite have consistently sidelined questions about Obama's BC; kind of the flip side of "what's good for the goose..."

Also:
in the rare instance when a judge has said that a NBC must have parents who are citizens, it has not been part of the decision in the case. Such comments have been gratuitous or “dictum,” as the lawyers say. That is, not necessary to the actual holding in the case.

Good way to resolve that would be to present the specific case to SCOTUS ... IIRC it's never been specifically addressed before.

Oh, that's right, apparently no one in the USA has proper standing to raise the issue.

I do not think it is a good idea to put this issue before the Supreme Court at the present time. They are currently defective. Just as the National Rifle Association refrained from bringing any Second Amendment cases before the Supreme court for fear of idiot liberals permanently damaging the protection guaranteed by the Second Amendment, We should also wait until we can insure we've gotten rid of the idiots on the court. The fiction that being born here makes you a "natural citizen" is so widespread that most people simply accept it as a fact. This ignorance is not confined to laymen, it is also prevalent amongst supposedly educated jurists. Until the public and the Judiciary have been educated to the correct meaning of the term "natural born citizen" we should not be asking them to make any decisions on this issue because we will obtain a decision which is tailor made by their ignorance.

The best way to proceed is to compile our evidence and our arguments and slowly put them before the public. Get enough of the public informed, and eventually the legal system will follow. There is no other way to accomplish this task.
