It would be about time if SCOTUS finally dealt with this. After all, isn’t their main and only job “to uphold the Constitution of the United States”? I have found their timidness appalling!! CO

It would be about time if SCOTUS finally dealt with this.

The SCOTUS cannot take this issue up on its own. It must come to them via a qualified suit through the Federal courts. However, waiting again until 2012 is extremely irresponsible for the Judicial branch of government, as the Presidential campaign timeline in 2008 will only be repeated in 2012.

Like every presidential election cycle, any 2012 Election cycle lawsuits against an unqualified candidate (even if Obama doesn't run) could likely ONLY be filed AFTER the August 2012 DNC & RNC Conventions have taken place, once both party's candidates have been selectedleaving a VERY SHORT window of less than 10 weeks before the November election. Legal Standing, still a vexing problem with Obama, probably would NOT be granted by a Federal Judge before the Conventions in 2012 against another ineligible presidential candidate ... whomever that person could be.

The 2008 Election has shown us the deficiencies in:

State Election laws
DNC, RNC and FEC rules and guidelines
Electoral College laws under US Code and directives
Senate decorum ... i.e, having statesman-like courage when asking, “Of course we all trust you Barack, but sorry ... we still need to see your original birth certificate.”

Despite the fact that Obama IS in the White House, successful in exploiting the weaknesses of all of the nation's Election laws and stopgaps, when the SCOTUS eventually rules on what we HERE know to be true they will have NO choice than to rule Obama’s 2008 campaign, the officials actions in certifying him, and Obama's resulting Presidency:


With all of the consequences that such a ruling would entail ...
