A technical point, maybe, but the electors don't all meet together. Each state's (plus DC's) electors meet separately in their respective state capitals and send their votes from there to Congress, where they are counted officially in January. Of course, that whole procedure has generally taken place without much fanfare because of the "rubber stamp" elector tradition. You are correct to say that they may vote for any qualified person, legally, but they are pledged to their party's ticket.
Thanks! I have been looking yet still haven’t found any usmcobra pulled posts with the article.
Senator Joe Lieberman? Why would he be in any position to ask?
What I have found so far: no posted usaafrica article yet but mention was made here:
To: ctdonath2
According to USafrica he was born in Kenya.

If I remember correctly he posted the picture with a link to the article. People started clicking the link and then posted:”Linky no worky” which is when he discovered it had been removed. Later the link worked but the article had been scrubbed so no reference was left alluding to Obama being born in Kenya although the picture remained. We have been discovering quite a few links which have been removed so one more is not surprising, although it is one of the most damaging!
“IF Obama is not eligible, then John is not, what with Johns being born in the Canal Zone and all”
John McCain was born to 2 US citizen parents, which makes a big difference.
Under the law in effect in 1961, Barack Obama was not a US citizen at birth because his US citizen mother had not lived in the US for 5 years after the age of 14 ( she was 18 years old ). It’s all cited in the article. Do you disagree with the statutory citation for some reason?
Gallagher had first mentioned it in an article and asked the Oabama campaign for a copy of his birth certificate. The COLB was first posted on Kos followed by the smears website AFTER Hillary suspended her campaign on June8th. The date of first posting of the COLB was June 12th.

If you find the post with the referenced article, please let us know. Thanks!
here is a link to several relevant laws.
http://www.richw.org/dualcit/law.html
The law seys 5 years residenace, 2 after age 14.
“The law seys 5 years residenace, 2 after age 14.”
That law is for people born after 1986, and did not apply to Obama when he was born in 1961. The law passed in 1986 was not retroactive for people born before that date. It seems very likely to me that Barack Obama, if he was born in Kenya, is not and has never been a U.S citizen.
That maybe the case... but,, if Obama is considered ineligible.... the Democrat Ticket for this election cycle will be so damaged that even Hillary would not either take it or win...... also ? the MSM credibility will be so far damaged.. the American public would tar and feather the MSM... the American public would turn on the MSM in a huge backlash.
“Someone posted earlier that the judge was a Clinton appointee.”
Yes, Judge Surrick was appointed by Billy Jeff. See below:

PRESIDENT CLINTON NOMINATES BERLE M. SCHILLER AND R. BARCLAY SURRICK TO THE FEDERAL BENCH
The President today nominated Berle M. Schiller and R. Barclay Surrick to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
Let’s hope and pray that your right, and that there are NO riots.
I don't have a problem with a huge backlash. I absolutely despise the MSM, already, with the exception of Britt Hume and Rush Limbaugh.
Maybe then, the MSM would clean up their act and report the facts.
Hillary has no shame; we're talking about a woman who stole truckloads of valuable stuff from the White House. I *think* she would take the Dem Ticket in a heartbeat.
