Why Was Sarah Herlihy Worrying About Article II?

first published in 2008

Contrairimairi has forwarded a post from Insight Analytical concerning Sarah Herlihy's article that was also discussed in the blog Count us Out. Someone had forwarded Herlihy's article to me and I blogged it on November 29. Herlihy works for the law firm of Kirkland and Ellis out of their Chicago office. The kicker is that Herlihy's article was published in the Kent Law review in 2006 and, notes Count us Out Blogger Creative Ogre:

"While digging my way through the Internet last night, I came across the following paper, written by SARAH P. HERLIHY. It’s title: AMENDING THE NATURAL BORN CITIZEN REQUIREMENT: GLOBALIZATION AS THE IMPETUS AND THE OBSTACLE caught my eye, and had to read it…

"I had to ask myself, what would drive any American to want to change a clause in a document that is the very foundation of our government? So, I kept digging, and found that SARAH P. HERLIHY is employed by Kirkland & Ellis LLP

"Noting that this law firm is based in Chicago, the light bulb was shining a little brighter . Upon looking at the firm, and the partners, I found that Bruce I. Ettelson, P.C., is Member of finance committees of U.S. Senators Barack Obama and Richard Durbin.

"In addition, Jack S. Levin, P.C., another partner who, in December 2002 was presented the ” Illinois Venture Capital As sociation’s lifetime achievement award for service to the private equity/venture capital community” presented by Sen. Barack Obama

"So it sure looks like Obama’s people have looked into the matter of “Natural born” as far back as early 2006. What is even more disturbing is that it would appear that they are following the thought of "If the facts do not support the theory, Destroy the facts!”

Here is the introduction to the paper… It looks like a road map for Obama’s defense lawyers…And a precursor to a Socialist world."

Looks like the article has been scrubbed???...LINKS not working? Contact Sarah and ask for a copy! LOL

What is even more disturbing is that it would appear that they are following the thought of "If the facts do not support the theory, Destroy the facts!”

And that's just what they're doing.

And by her logic, the separation of church and state, as a comment within a letter, should be struck as a formatting and legislative tool.

If you want to use a commentary to negate the natural born clause, than a commentary will also negate the separation clause.

“...looks like Obama’s people have looked into matter of “Natural born” as far back as early 2006”
*********************

The movement to remove the constitutional safeguards on natural born go back much further than that!

In fact a very good article on precisely that appeared only a coupla days ago..........?????

November 28th, 2008? Really? Looks like I was off by three days. I stand corrected.

Actually, I was off by a couple of weeks.

In summary you need two parents to be U.S. Citizens at the time of your birth and you must be born on U.S. soil to be a “natural born” citizen. 2,325 posted on 11/19/2008 1:22:58 PM PST by Flamenco Lady

This is the earliest reference I can find on Free Republic to the "two parent citizen" argument. Got anything older, preferably before Obama was elected?
