U.S. Rep. Bob Goodlatte, R-Roanoke, has signed on as a co-sponsor of a bill that would require presidential candidates to provide proof of their birthplace and, hence, satisfy a constitutional requirement to be able to run for the office. Last year, questions came up about Republican candidate U.S. Sen. John McCain's eligibility under the Constitution to run for president because of his birth at a Naval air station in the former U.S. Canal Zone in Panama. McCain's parents were both American citizens. The validity of President Obama's birth certificate also has been challenged in court. The state of Hawaii provided...

Government lawyers defending President Obama and Congress in a lawsuit alleging that he's ineligible to occupy the Oval Office and that members of the House and Senate violated the constitutional rights of citizens by refusing to investigate want still more time to respond to the accusations.

Jay McKinnon, a self-described Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist, has implicated himself in the production of fraudulent Hawaii birth certificate images similar to the one endorsed as genuine by the Barack Obama campaign, and appearing on the same blog entry where the supposedly authentic document appears. The evidence of forgery and manipulation of images of official documents, triggered by Israel Insider's revelation of the collection of Hawaii birth certificate images on the Photobucket site and the detective work of independent investigative journalists and imaging professionals in the three weeks since the publication of the images, implicate the Daily Kos,...

Well, did you think it was authentic? Nope, and just like Obama's Certificate of Live Birth Forgery, it left a nasty Photoshop finger print. For those you not that computer-savvy, Photoshop is image-editing software (the most popular). You can virtually superimpose one image onto another etc. Photoshop is often used to put heads on other peoples' bodies (as in the case of some Glam magazines) etc. Even an amateur with this software can make convincing, yet fake photos. Check out the image below that Obots are trying to pass around as proof that Obama attended Punahou Private school in Hawaii.

AKA Obama Fans: All together now – say OMG!! by Aristotle the Hun Somehow, you know it’s coming. That OMG moment is just around the corner. You can feel the inescapable reality creeping up on you. Something will leak. Someone will spill the beans. “For nothing is hid that shall not be made manifest, nor anything secret that shall not be known and come to light.” Luke 8:17 It isn’t hard to imagine the gnawing anxiety that AKA OBAMA (Also Known As: an acronym used to describe suspicious persons who use more than one name) lives with, day in and...

From Michael Hopper: 1. He may not be a natural born citizen qualified to serve as President under Article II of the Constitution 2. He is a suspected illegal alien for two possible reasons 3. He took elected office and was admitted to the Illinois Bar under an alias He admits he was born to an American mother and a British subject, suggesting dual citizenship at best. If he was not born on U.S. soil, and his mother was a minor, she was ineligible to convey US citizenship. Under the British Nationality Act of 1948, he was born a British...

McGrew The fifth amendment of the US Constitution states: “No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on the presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury.� So who or what is a Grand Jury? Most Americans, including most Judges, most prosecutors and most lawyers think a Grand Jury is a function of the government, at the whim of the government, under the control and direction of the government. However, this is constitutionally false and always has been. Americans are educated...

Has anyone else?? Good or bad, it would be nice to know what came of that (supposed) meeting.

As of this writing, America is 70 days into the Also Known As (AKA) “Obama” Administration. People have sent me e-mails asking me to call this man our “president” or call him by his name, “Barack Obama.” I can do neither. AKA is not our legal president, he is a usurper sitting in the Oval Office, signing into law bills when he has not legal authority to do so, having failed to produce one shred of credible evidence that he is eligible to the office of president under Article II, Section 1, United States Constitution.

Stockbridge, Georgia- The questions over the eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to occupy his current position as President of the United States continue to be raised. After being presented with evidence in the matter, a citizens' grand jury convened by Carl Swensson in Georgia has returned an indictment against Barack Hussein Obama aka Barry Soetoro aka Barry Sutoro. Reportedly the sealed indictment, scheduled to be delivered to prosecutors on Monday, includes counts of fraud and conspiracy to commit fraud. "It's a done deal, and the people of the State of Georgia demand action on this matter," said Carl Swensson after...

GREGORY S. HOLLISTER, Plaintiff, v. : Civil Action No. 08-2254 (JR) BARRY SOETORO, et al., Defendants. MEMORANDUM ORDER We live in a free country. Our liberties are manifold and are the envy of the world. In the very top tier of those liberties, enshrined in the First Amendment, is “the right of the people . . . to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.” Many of those petitions are presented to judges. Every judge knows that a disturbingly high percentage of them involve petty slights, or imagined injuries, or matters that lie well beyond the reach of the...

Ann Soetoro lived many years in Indonesia under the Suharto dictatorship. Her husband had been an army engineer and later a government liaison to Mobil Oil Co. As such the family must have been well positioned and well off in the employ of the Suharto government. Ann returned to Hawaii, allegedly for educational purposes, several times but spent most of her career in Indonesia. However, between 1960 and 1999 Indonesia remained a subject of controversy due to its egregious human rights violations.

The sister of President Barack Obama will speak at California State University, Sacramento, on Tuesday. Maya Soetoro-Ng will talk about leadership and service at a 2 p.m. speech in the University Union Ballroom. She is a high school teacher in Hawaii and a lecturer at the University of Hawaii's College of Education. Her focus is on world history, multicultural education and nonviolence. Soetoro-Ng was invited to campus by Boatamo Mosupyoe, director of CSUS' Cooper-Woodson College Enhancement Program.

HIS YOUTH Born 04 August 1961.Is he a natural born citizen of America? Where is a birth certificate? During his childhood, he was steeped in Islam. His father and stepfather were devout Islamists. His stepfather, Lolo Soetoro had the greatest impact on his upbringing and was a radical Wahabbist Muslim. His mother married Lolo and they lived in Indonesia during his formative years. In Indonesia one had to declare one’s faith when enrolling in school so Barack’s mother enrolled him as a Muslim for the third and fourth grades. Thus Obama studied Islam two hours a day and went to...

A rant from the WARROOM with Quinn and Rose Rant by Jim Quinn (Transcript by Neil E. Wright. Any errors are mine. I have added emphasis where I think it is appropriate.) "I want to talk more about the president's plan for the economy which will be unveiled tomorrow night. And as I've said a couple of times in this hour, I'm convinced now that its not stupidity. That its not just bold ideology. I'm convinced now that there is a global agenda to destroy the economy of the United States of America.And the reason? Very simple. You cannot establish...

It appears that Soetoro became an Indonesian citizen. When Soetoro was approximately four (4) years old his parents divorced and thereafter, Soetoro’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, married Lolo Soetoro, a citizen of Indonesia. Evidence points to the fact that Lolo Soetoro either signed a government form legally “acknowledging” Soetoro as his son or “adopted” Soetoro, either of which changed any citizenship status Soetoro had to a “natural” citizen of Indonesia. At the time that Defendant Barry Soetoro was in Indonesia, all Indonesian students were required to carry government identity cards or Karty Tanda Pendudaks, as well as family card identification...

I’ll admit I have way too much time. However feeling a little down over the passage of the “Stimulus“ bill, I decided to cheer myself up a bit. Not being a drinker, my vice was an anagram generator I found on the web. So using only the letters found in “President Obama”, what would be the most satisfying anagram? The exercise resulted in 1000’s of anagrams some of which were spot on and others that were just plain funny. Beware they’re lots of anagrams to be derived from President Obama, and much time to waste. Here’s mine in no particular...

Loyal to LibertyThought for Today As many of you know, I am party to one of the lawsuits seeking evidence that would help to establish, one way or the other, whether Obama in fact meets the U.S. Constitution's eligibility requirements for the office of President of the United States. To understand my view of the critical issues involved see the WND articles The End of the Constitutional Republic, and Obama, Oaths and the End of Constitutional Government.) Now Obama's lawyers have filed a motion to quash our effort to obtain the relevant documents (cf. Bob Unruh's WND article Sanctions sought...

<p>I have seen some really sick comments posted recently which encouraged the military to disobey orders. That is wrong. I strongly suggest that all active military step back and refrain in any way from taking advice over the Internet on a matter of this importance. Consult with your family attorney or a JAG advocate. This is my final statement on the matter. I pass on having anything to do with military suing over POTUS eligibility. I don’t have the resources to guide such a litigation, nor do I see that any court would ever provide true justice after what I’ve experienced with my case and Cort’s. I have absolutely NO faith in the US legal system. None. Nada. Zilch. Zippo. So I don’t see the point of subjecting our troops to legal harm for a case they will NEVER win in the cult’s courts. The military can deal with any situation in their own court system.</p>

There is a biography of Barry Soetoro 's Occidental College days. It states that when Barry Soetoro was 18-19 he attended school as BARRY SOETORO. And it wasn't until he met a girl by the name of REGINA that was the first to start calling him Barack. See: http://abagond.wordpress.com/2008/04/11/obama-at-occidental-college/ The importance of this is that it clearly shows that Barry was using his Indonesian name, and of course, his Indonesian passport. The International Herald Tribute (The Global issue of the New York Times) also states: http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/02/08/america/obama.php "Nearly three decades ago, Barack Obama stood out on the small campus of Occidental...

As President Obama worked the rope-line at the State Department Thursday, a State Department staffer named Charles Silver, knowing the President once lived in Indonesia, shouted out, "good afternoon" in the local language.

About the Program Taped in 2004, then Illinois U.S. Senator - Elect Barack Obama discusses his memoir, titled "Dreams from My Father." It's his account of growing up in a racially mixed family, doing community work in Chicago, and a journey to Kenya where he met the African side of his family. Mr. Obama also talks about the challenges he expected to face when he took his U.S. Senate seat in January 2005. Includes Q&A.

For the sake of argument let’s lay aside that question and for the moment and assume he is presidential material; the next question would be, just what is his real name? We are told it is Barack Hussein Obama. We also know that the liberal media generally objects to the use of his middle name, but does he? Did Roosevelt object to the use of Delano, did Bush object to use of Walker. How about, who knows or who cares. Let’s move on to a far more important question. Is Barry Soetoro his real name and would he object to...

Glenn Beck will start his new show on Fox News in only a few days. He wishes President Elect Obama success and his good will is commendable. With Obama as his first guest will he dare to ask him about the much disputed birth certificate or the question about his father’s Indonesian citizenship? Not likely! Neither the Dem’s nor the GOP is happy with the Obama plan to re-vitalize the economy by producing a new spending package that makes a king’s ransom look like a pittance. His concern for the economy is read as hopeful by his devotees and as...

I don't know if this is the proper way to format a vanity, but I figured someone on FR would know the answer to this question. I have seen in many Obama-birth-certificate-related articles the claim that Maya Soetoro-Ng has given two different locations for the birth hospital of Obama. Most recently I've seen this claim made in World Net Daily articles on the subject. The problem is that I've been unable to verify this was the case. I've contacted WND, and they've ignored me -- I simply asked for attribution. No response thus far. Does anyone have any reliable proof...

President-elect Barack Obama gathered with family and friends on Tuesday for a private memorial service for the beloved grandmother who helped raise him. Madelyn Payne Dunham, known to her friends as “Toot”, died Nov. 2, two days before Obama won election to become the nation’s first African-American president. She was 86. Obama did not speak to reporters at the small home that had been converted into the First Unitarian Church in Nuuanu. Aides said Obama’s half-sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng, and her husband, Konrad Ng, also were present. Following the ceremony, Obama drove to the Lanai Lookout. He and about 20 members...

Slamet Danuaji, a resident and neighbor of Soerono in Menteng, Central Jakarta, said the late Tata had been close with the young boy. "He treated Obama as if he were his own son," he said, as quoted by news agency Antara. The Obama family rented the house at Jln. Taman Amir Hamzah no. 22 from 1969 to...

There appears to be no question that Defendant Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, was a U.S. citizen. It is also undisputed, however, that his father, Barack Obama, Sr., was a citizen of Kenya. Obama’s parents, according to divorce records, were married on or about February 2, 1961. Defendant Obama claims he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii on August 4, 1961 and it is uncertain in which hospital he claims to have been born. Obama’s grandmother on his father’s side, his half-brother and half-sister all claim Obama was born not in Hawaii but in Kenya. Reports reflect that Obama’s mother traveled...

The enigmatic phrase “natural born citizen” poses a series of problems for contemporary originalism. New Originalists, like Justice Scalia, focus on the original public meaning of the constitutional text. The notion of a “natural born citizen” was likely a term of art derived from the idea of a “natural born subject” in English law—a category that most likely did not extend to persons, like Senator McCain, who were born outside sovereign territory. But the Constitution speaks of “citizens” and not “subjects,” introducing uncertainties and ambiguities that might (or might not) make McCain eligible for the presidency.

The 2008 election cycle has been a busy one for legal disputes over the qualifications of presidential candidates, with federal cases having been filed to challenge both major candidates’ eligibility under the “natural born Citizen” clause. These cases unquestionably present vital questions of constitutional law, touching on matters of self-evident national importance. It is doubtful, however, that they are justiciable in lower federal courts. Standing requirements and the political question doctrine make it unlikely that a federal court will reach the merits in cases of the type filed to date.
