Obama's real presidential model: Eisenhower?
myself / HotAir | March 25, 2011 | HotAir Sub-title

Posted on 03/25/2011 9:50:16 PM PDT by patlin

Obama doesn't have even an ounce of the honor, nor the integrity that Ike had. Ike was a 5 star general in the US Army and he still had to show his birth certificate to gain access on the ballot as a presidential candidate. Now a highly decorated Lt Col of the US Army sits in Ft Leavenworth for merely asking his commander in chief to uphold the same standards that up until the last few decades was a requisite to running for the highest office that is in charge of our National Security. A simple question so he would have the peace of mind while serving in harms way. An 18 year Army doctor who has to produce a certified copy of his long form birth certificate everytime he is deployed. A top flight surgeon whom had to go through extenseive training on critical thinking in order to be able to make objective & critical decisions on the battle field & who graduated at the top of his class. An officer whose oath is to the Constitution, not the CIC as the oath is for regular enlisted soldiers. A Lt Col who was slated to be promoted to full Col this spring.

Oh yes, this is quite a metaphoric subtitle. If it wasn't so critically true to the preservation of our society, Constitution & the election process, it might actually be funny.

Ike needed birth certificate to run for president
‘Ike had nothing to hide!’

http://www.sonorannews.com/archives/2010/100922/frontpage_Ike.html

CAVE CREEK – Glen Fairclough, a reader from Salt Lake City, Utah, sent us an e-mail last week to express his gratitude for publishing the recent article regarding President Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate.

And, while going through digital images online of his hometown newspaper, the Deseret News and Telegram, Fairclough forwarded us a United Press wire article from the Oct. 2, 1952 edition he thought we would find interesting.

The article appeared on page 6A with a dateline of Sherman, Texas. It was headlined: “General’s birth certificate officially filed,” and stated, “A certificate recording Dwight Eisenhower’s birth in Denison on Oct. 14, 1890, was filed Wednesday [Oct. 1, 1952] in the Grayson County Clerk’s office.

“Nobody had bothered to make out a certificate when the Republican presidential candidate was born in a house at the corner of Lamar and Day streets in nearby Denison.

“A copy of the certificate filed Wednesday was mailed to Mrs. Eisenhower in Denver. Eisenhower’s older brother, Arthur, signed the certificate. It was also signed by the Grayson County Judge J.N. Dickson and recorded by County Clerk J.C. Buchanan.”

David Dwight Eisenhower was the third of seven boys born to David Jacob and Ida Elizabeth.

Since he was called Dwight while growing up, Eisenhower swapped his first and middle names when he enrolled at West Point Military Academy.

Elected 34th president of the United States in November 1952, Eisenhower made it through his first 62 years without any need for a birth certificate.

However, the need arose when he became a presidential candidate. Since Eisenhower was the oldest man to be elected president since James Buchanan over 100 years earlier, age was obviously not at issue. Instead, there was protocol in place for presidential candidates to provide proof of eligibility to appear on the ballot.

Eisenhower, whose campaign slogan: “I like Ike” became the most famous in campaign history, won by a landslide with Richard Nixon as his running mate.

Using what the Republicans considered failures of the Truman administration, which was said to be infiltrated by Soviet spies, Eisenhower’s campaign attacked Korea, Communism and corruption.

Republicans also blamed Democrats for the military’s failure to be fully prepared to fight in Korea and pounded the Truman administration for harboring a soaring number of officials accused of crimes.

While it’s difficult not to notice history’s propensity toward repeating itself, Fairclough asserted, “Ike had nothing to hide!”

Ike was a better golfer.

Just a few hours ago I heard Arnold Palmer on TGC at Bayhill mention Ike. He said that he had advised him during a round of golf to keep his right elbow in, and that by the end of the round Ike's arm was bloodied from scraping against his militarily positioned belt buckle. ( I don't know anything about that, but that's what I understood him to say. ) Anyway, Ike was very eager to follow the advice of Arnold Palmer.

Why they ignore the Chavez tin pot dictator angle is a mystery. Obama is a banana republic wanna be dictator at best.

Ike had his own BC problems.......

Sunday, November 29, 2009

By Don Nicoloff

November 29, 2009

It seems that in 2009 we do not have to go far in finding the Truth. The Truth has its own way of finding us.

After discovering the true identities of “George Herbert Walker Bush, Sr.” (aka George H. Scherff, Jr.) [see “Deathbed confessions, photos support claims that George H. Scherff, Jr. was the 41st U.S. President,” Part 1 and Part 2” The Idaho Observer, April, 2007], “Senator John Sydney McCain, III” (aka John McCann, II) and “Barack Hussein Obama” (aka Barry Soetoro and Barry Rockefeller) [see “The Three Stooges go to Washington, Parts 1-7b, The Idaho Observer, May 20, 2008-July 18, 2009], it should come as no surprise that another U.S. president has been caught in several lies that warrant forensic investigation of his genealogy.

A recently-discovered 1952 Texas newspaper clipping, from either The Denison Herald or The Sherman Democrat, describes a birth certificate controversy which involved then-U.S. Presidential candidate Gen. Dwight D. “Ike” Eisenhower. Eisenhower went on to become the 34th President of the United States, serving two terms before leaving office in 1961.

Another birth certificate scandal
Eisenhower was allegedly born on October 14, 1890 in Denison, Texas. After receiving a letter from an undisclosed New York law firm during the 1952 presidential campaign, Harold Schmitzer, the Denison City Secretary replied that Eisenhower did not have a birth certificate filed with with the Grayson County Clerk’s Office [a now-familiar pattern in U.S. presidential genealogies].

Lonnie F. Roberts, having read a Denison newspaper article that described Eisenhower’s unrecorded birth, checked with the county clerk’s office in Sherman, Texas to see if there was a recorded birth certificate. The clerk’s office said that there was no such recording.

Roberts then requested compiled birth information from Gen. Eisenhower through Mamie Eisenhower in Denver, Colorado. The information was entered into a formal, legal birth certificate and sent to Arthur B. Eisenhower (in Kansas City, Missouri) to be notarized as an official witness to the birth. Judge J. N. Dickson (the source of the newspaper archive) signed the certificate which was recorded by County Clerk J.C. Buchanan. Once the certificate was recorded, it was sent back to Mrs. Eisenhower.

If there ever existed a further public controversy regarding Eisenhower’s birthplace, it was definitely quashed. However, sufficient biographical accounts have been written in an attempt to legitimize Dwight D. Eisenhower’s birth in Denison, Texas, a fact that few dare dispute — that is, until now…

I found the link through the process of elimination. George Noorey & Alex Jones would be impressed. I am not. I am not here for conspiracy theories.

I have a remote cousin(grandfather's cousin's daughter) who has the exact same name as mine. We were born in different states in different years. My younger sis also has the same problem. How do you know that I am not really my cousin? I'd love to read a conspiracy theory on that too?

IOW, it is NOT uncustomary for families of all generations to use family names passed down through those generations and the odds of remote cousins having the same name is NOT unusual. After moving to the SD, I found myself in the same school as that cousin and we were always getting mixed up, i. e. getting called to the principle's office for the others pranks. So I guess this person at this blog could come up with a conspiracy theory about us too as the school authorities were always getting us confused, even though we were in different grades.

Am I who you really think I am? PLEEEESE! There can be a conspiracy written about nearly every person in existence today.

I really hope the next president will pardon LTC. Lakin and restore his status. He won’t have to restore his Honor, because to all real Americans who find out the facts, he is a hero with more honor than all of congress and more than little Barry will ever understand.

He might have had a case if he wrote this about Clinton in the 1990s, but it doesn’t fit Obama very well.

I really hope the next president will pardon LTC. Lakin and restore his status...

I am praying that his status is restored prior to that by the simple fact of Obama not being able to produce a US long form bc for the 2012 election that will be required by states such as AZ(when signed by Gov Brewer). States with new constitutional conservative SOS's will also be able to make sure that their SOS's do not accept a certification of nomination from the political party or the candidate themselves that does not contain language that the candidates are eligible under the provisions of the Constitution for the offices they wish to attain per state election laws such as mine, thereby restricting him from the ballot. Our state has one of the latest primaries and we now know how to challenge a candidate and we will use that knowledge to keep him off the ballot, primary or otherwise. Since the eligibility language was not contained in the 2008 certification of nomination that our RINO SOS accepted, we will be able to use it in 2012 to challenge Obama's credentials and make either he or the DNC cough up the goods aka US long form bc.
