And do you know why Rep. Jose Serrano brought it up? Not because of Obama; he brought it up because it's a running joke of his at the Appropriations Committee hearings he chairs each year for the Supreme Court budget, which Thomas attends.
Serrano, you see, was born in Puerto Rico. He joked about his eligibility at the hearing in 2007. And again in 2008. And he did it again in 2009. And then again this year.
And don't forget that there has already been one ineligible politician who served as President. Chester Arthur's birth was very likely born in Canada, to an Irish father.
Except Arthur wasn't ineligible. He was perfectly eligible, as evidenced by the severe lack of legal scholars or political scientists who claim that he was ineligible. The only people today who claim that Arthur was ineligible are birthers. Birthers who, when confronted with the undeniable fact that President Arthur also had a non-citizen father, decided to retroactively declare Arthur to be ineligible TOO, rather than admit that their invented argument was wrong.
What’s intriguing is not Serrano’s comments but Clarence Thomas’, that “we” (meaning the Supreme Court) are evading the issue of Presidential eligibility. You avoided your “expert” comments on that; also the irregularity of Justice Roberts’ meeting with Obama the week before his inauguration.
Loren, you’re a leftist lurker. I’m going to stop bothering to answer your posts.
