Wednesday, October 21, 2009 Court Dismisses Kerchner Complaint/Petition for Lack of Standing. The Decision Will Be Appealed. The Hon. Jerome B. Simandle of the Federal District Court in the District of New Jersey at 10:39 a.m., on October 21, 2009, filed his long-awaited opinion dismissing the Kerchner et al. v. Obama et al. complaint/petition. We allege that Obama has not conclusively proven that he was born in Hawaii. We also allege that even if he was so born, he is not an Article II natural born Citizen because his father was a British subject/citizen when Obama was born and Obama himself was born a British subject/citizen, all of which makes him ineligible to be President and Commander in Chief of the Military. We also allege that Congress violated it constitutional duty under the Twentieth Amendment to adequately investigate and confirm whether Obama is an Article II natural born Citizen. The Court found that the plaintiffs failed to show that they suffered an injury in fact. It added that plaintiffs alleged injury is only a generally available grievance about government and is one they share with all United States citizens.
The Court said that it cannot take jurisdiction of the issue of whether Obama is a natural born Citizen and whether Congress has acted constitutionally in its confirmation of Obama for President because the matter is a political question which needs to be resolved by Congress. "The plaintiffs remedy against Congress may be achieved by voting at the polls."
American People unfortunately still do not know whether Obama is constitutionally qualified to be President and Commander in Chief.
As promised, plaintiffs will be filing an appeal to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The election remark is laughable with ACORN.
So if Roger Calero had won, he would be president despite the fact that he’s not even a citizen?
For those who don’t know. Roger Calero is a previously deported resident alien who was on the ballot for president in several states. BTW he was also inder the legal age to be president when he ran.
Chief Justice Warren determined that the only critical one in this case was whether there was a textually demonstrable constitutional commitment to the House to determine in its sole discretion the qualifications of members.563 In[p.695]order to determine whether there was a textual commitment, the Court reviewed the Constitution, the Convention proceedings, and English and United States legislative practice to ascertain what power had been conferred on the House to judge the qualifications of its members; finding that the Constitution vested the House with power only to look at the qualifications of age, residency, and citizenship, the Court thus decided that in passing on Powells conduct and character the House had exceeded the powers committed to it and thus judicial review was not barred by this factor of the political question doctrine.564
We have judges who cower from their sworn allegiance to the Constitution. Obama is turning into such a nightmare that I have hope he and his mob will contribute to a massive swing. But these judges remain, as do all the legislators who chose to ignore the so obvious eligibility problems of both major candidates (McCain, but not Obama, was the subject of several congressional investigations resulting in a Senate Resolution cosponsored by Obama which had no legal effect claiming McCain was a NBC). This provided cover for Obama's ineligibility. Republicans wouldn't dare question Obama's problems because they could remove McCain with confidence; the same law firm defending McCain in eligibility lawsuits, Kirkham & Ellis, advised Obama, and had a Senior VP on Obama's election committee.
These representatives have allowed such enormous damage to our economy and threats to our freedoms to occur that we must all remember and remove them from office. They are mostly professional politicians, but as unemployment reaches twenty percent, many will keep track of their names. Their pork was redistribution. Ask Caterpillar, a union shop, how much redistribution has helped keep them employed. This is the Chicago Mob reinforced by the worst of the bourgeois academic Marxist community, and funded by some opportunistic bankers - Goldman Sachs, Soros...
I agree. Things have certainly changed since the Congress of the early 50’s when every Rep and Sen appeared to be a WWII Vet. Things have changed since any military person of legal age to vote (21 then) could obtain an absentee ballot and send it back without ever having a reason to question the integrity of the election process.
Significant flaw in hizzoner’s reasoning, IMO. The observation that the remedy is the next election presumes there will be a next election (not guaranteed). Also, the determination that the alleged injury extends to the entirety of the American public, and thus obviates standing for the plaintiffs, is asinine. The judge’s argument is morally abhorrent, although it is founded in precedent. Another example that what is ‘legal’ is NOT always right.
Best of luck on appeal. This issue STILL deserves a full hearing and proper resolution. Of course, 0bama could end the whole thing very easily...just release the BC, the passport records, the college records, and the details around all those Social Security numbers.
It’s time to take back the country.
“So if Roger Calero had won, he would be president despite the fact that hes not even a citizen?” According to the judge who wrote the idiotic ruling, yes. You see what the newly empowered federal oligarchy means now, eh? Welcome to the Amerika of judges like Simandle.
Like the idiot senator from Florida (Martinez) who said once the people have voted the constitution doesn’t matter.
Senator Marttinez was at least honest, since he believes the Senate to be more powerful than the law and/or the old constitution. ... And we wonder how it got this bad so fast while we were not paying attention since the great society?
Sorry, but it is not a political question but a LEGAL QUESTION involving the CONSTITUTION which the Courts are supposed to hear.
