What? again???
Would you hire someone who presented you with a forged birth certificate (CoLB)?
War does not need to be declared; but a national emergency does.
There’s always an alien battle cruiser, or a Corellian death ray, or an intergalactic plague intended to wipe out life on this miserable little planet. The only way these people can get on with their happy lives is that they DO NOT KNOW ABOUT IT!
Thanks, but does this indicate that we can grab our left ear with our right hand and by pass usual laws? Including elections? Not necessarily suspending those, pehaps but postponing them on a national emergency, martial law basis?
I have been through martial law elsewhere but never thought about it for the USA.
Opinion?
Any real doubts?

“I cant help but think that someone overcompensated for hiding it in the first place, though...”
I think David summed it up nicely in his final sentence here:

My thoughts exactly!
Yeah. Travel and travail - same root word.
Sorta like the root for the Spanish word for work, trabajo, means trouble...
I'm not sure I understand what you are saying.
The original question was: AND - will someone please confirm that if we are in a state of war at the time of elections, the elections can be postponed or suspended by Presidential edict?
The question, as asked, stipulated "war". We are not in a state of war. That is indisputable. Congress has declared war on no one.
So: Are you saying that the president can postpone the election in a (your words) "national emergency"? Could you cite something to back that up, please?
The other factors are influencing peripheral facts in that direction, most of which tend to disprove not prove he is a natural born American qualified to be president...."
He's not trying to prove anything to anyone, he believes it's his RIGHT! All he's trying to do is FOOL US INTO BELIEVING HIM!
Not really. Wars and rumors of wars have been one of my daily companions, seldom more than an arm’s reach away all my life.
“Duck and cover” drills get a little extra charm when you’re a kid on a military base in the south east and the Cuban Missile crisis is in full bloom.
Color me jaded.
mmmmmmmmmmaybe. The authorization of force prior to the latest Iraq war was arguably a declaration of war. The constitution does not specify that any particular turn of phrase is needed to declare a war...
I see that silly comment as a lame excuse for blacking out the certificate number on the forgery. (It's not an important issue, nothing to see here, go away...)
From now on, anything from FukCheck (sic) should be treated with a huge amount of suspicion. It sounds like they take dictation from obama.

Let's see... I know it's the wrong canon, but if I remember correctly, it goes:
Drink beer.
Buy sandwich.
Beer.
Drink beer.
Exit when house crashes.
Give sandwich to dog.
North.
Wait until Ford drops device
Get Device.
Press green button.
And then I'll wake up on a Vogon Ship after Earth is destroyed.
Problem solved.
That's apt for me right now. I'm expecting to magically produce some software that takes a couple of weeks to do in the next five minutes. And I've been expecting that for a month and a half now. I do a little analysis and then get distracted, or hit the refresh button. I've gotten into the same mindset every once in awhile but it's lasted a half day, at most three. I've never quite been this bad.
I had my latest brush with death near as the fog in my nostrils back early April, and something about that has hit my lazy bone, fer sure. I'm greatly happy to be alive, but I'd like to actually do some real work too. Especially since some good soul is paying me to do it.
Habeus Corpus was suspended by President Lincoln during the War Between the States/Civil War.
Mr. zerObama? How many huts does your family own?
