Yeah, I know why. Because he can’t afford for it to make it to court. That’s why he and his lawyers gave the judge the one fingered salute when they all failed to show up after the judge ordered them to. Did they get so much as a slap on the wrist? No. Did the case proceed? No. Was anything at all done? No.

But you’re avoiding the fact that BCs can be and are forged.

LOL, not a bit! Of course BCs can be forged.

But they are presumed to be authentic unless proven to be forged in a court of competent authority. That certainly hasn’t happened yet, but feel free to keep trying.

(Oh, and you are apparently referring to the hearing before ALJ Malihi in Georgia. Why don’t you review your facts? You’ve got a whole bunch of them wrong. And since that was not one of the venues in which a Letter of Verification was submitted, it is completely irrelevant to the question I raised. Why don’t you read it again and see if you can answer it? You might learn something.)

That is such a crock that I've done some research for you. Feel free to do your own and see if you find anything different.

"they all failed to show up after the judge ordered them to"

No, that's not true.

In the Georgia ballot challenge case, Farrar v. Obama, the President's attorneys declined to appear on the grounds that the hearing was scheduled in error, because the the Court had no jurisdiction over the issues in question. The judge, ALJ Malihi, didn't like hearing that, but he did not issue a court order requiring anyone to appear.

"Did they get so much as a slap on the wrist? No."

Well, Malihi is his ruling rebuked them for not attending:

"By deciding this matter on the merits, the Court in no way condones the conduct or legal scholarship of Defendant's attorney, Mr. Jablonski."

"Did the case proceed? No."

No, that's not true. The case certainly did proceed. You can see the proceedings on YouTube, and you can read Malihi's ruling online.

"Was anything at all done? No."

Oh, I wouldn't say that. ALJ Malihi listened to the evidence that purported to prove that the BC was a forgery, and issued a rather scathing ruling (quoted in part):

"The Court finds the testimony of the witnesses, as well as the exhibits tendered, to be of little, if any, probabtive value, and thus wholly insufficient to support Plaintiffs' allegations ... None of the testifying witnesses provided persuasive testimony. Moreover, the Court finds that none of the written submissions tendered by Plaintiffs have probative value. Given the unstaisfactory evidence presented by the Plaintiffs, the Court concludes that Plaintiffs' claims are not persuasive."

and concluding:

"President Barack Obama is eligible as a candidate for the presidential primary election under O.C.G.A. § 21-2-5(b)."

Of course, the plaintiffs didn't like that one bit, so they appealed to the Superior Court of Fulton County. And do you know what the Superior Court said?

"Based upon Georgia law and governing precedent, the Court finds it has no authority to exercise jurisdiction over the Democratic Party of Georgia's selection of the names(s) to be included in the Presidential Preference Primary or to examine the qualifications of those individuals. Therefore, these actions should be DISMISSED in accordance with O.C.G.A. § 9-11-12(b)."

In other words, the President's attorney was correct -- the hearing never should have been held in the first place, as the Court had no jurisdiction.
