No, I don’t want to see Obama’s birth certificate, long or short form. There’s nothing on it that I need or that would change my opinion. I believe he’s ineligible because he didn’t have two citizen parents.

Even so, he’s the sitting POTUS and no lawsuit is going to change that. It’s impeachment, failed re-election bid, or nothing. Those are the options at this point. The second of which is a good possibility.


I see. Unfortunately for your side of that issue, the only Court thus far to rule on the two American parent argument has ruled that: “based on the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by [the Supreme Court in their decision in US v]Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of teh United States are “natural born citizens” for Article 2, Section 1 purposes, REGARDLESS OF THE CITIZENSHIP OF THEIR PARENTS. Just as a person “born within the British dominions [was]a natural born British subject” at the time of the founding of the U.S. Constitution, so too were those “born in allegiance of the United States natural-born citizens.”—Indiana Court of Appeals, “Ankeny et. al. v. The Governor of Indiana, Mitch Daniels.” November 12, 2009

I agree with you on the options for getting rid of Obama but you left out a viable third option: resignation as happened with Richard Nixon.

Yep, I’m awae of that ruling. I believe it was in error and would not be upheld by SCOTUS were they to hear it, which isn’t going to happen.

I hadn’t thought about a resignation. That’d be spectacular. If only ...
