Yes, the penalty for not registering is that the person can not hold a position in the executive branch of the government. I heard it said he registered late at a P O in Hawaii, but at that time he was in the US at school... so someone else, reportedly an uncle or grandfather is said to have submitted the registration. I believe there has to be a signature on that document and I’m sure if anyone cared that this fraud is not going to abide by the very constitution he is going to swear to uphold they could verify who actually signed the document... my guess — It twern’t Barry!
EXCLUSIVE: Did Next Commander-in-Chief Falsify Selective Service Registration?

Here’s one of the recent threads on the Selective Service issue.
I have to disagree. There is no point in having a relative or someone else register for you. It's not like Joseph and Mary having to travel to Joseph's tribal home town of Bethlehem to register for Caesar's census. You could register at ANY post office in the country so long as it was within the statutory time after your 18th birthday (in Obama's case it was after the draft was re-instated when he was almost 19). Barry could have walked to the nearest post office close to the school on the mainland and registered. Done.
If, and there is doubt, that the FOIA released Selective Service form is a forgery, then it is far more likely that the radical, liberal, leftist, anti-war Obama did NOT register at all when required to... as a form of protest. The forgery, if it is, is newly created to establish that he registered in a timely manner, not because he wasn't present in his hometown to do so.
