It’s only dead if the US Constitution is dead. Acrime against the Constitution has been committed, and you want to look the other way?

… or hidden away!
Keep in mind that WE ALREADY KNOW THE UNAMBIGUOUS LEGAL DEFINITION OF THE TERM-OF-ART “natural born Citizen”!! It was put into the law of this land by the United States Supreme Court decision in the 1875 Minor v. Happersett case and has never been overturned (but even has been recognized and confirmed in other cases since that time). At the time of the decision in Minor it was almost 100 years after the nation’s founding and even now 230-plus years later it still means the same thing. One simplified way of stating this is “born in the US of 2 US citizen parents”.
The actual 1875 Supreme Court opinion in Minor v Happersett:
“The Constitution does not in words say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first. “ (emphasis added)
This means the simple “born in America of 2 citizen parents” still is the active, pertinent law of our land. It should in conjunction with A2S1C5 of the Constitution, be the law that determines Obama’s fate … of course he and the Flying Monkeys won’t agree; they’d rather just ignore or rewrite the Constitution, but I wouldn’t.
Not hardly. It will never be over, NEVER!! Too many inconsistencies,coverups, and lies.
Until the actual birth certificate has been released and Obama has been proven a natural born citizen the legality of his Presidency will remain in question. That is the root issue not the b*st*rdized MSM equivalent. The certified copy of his long form birth certificate has been sought because it would or would not confirm his status as a natural born citizen and hence his Presidency. Until the actual birth certificate has been released we are not living in a nation of laws but in a nation of men.
Remember, that every nation of men has the ability to legally slaughter their citizens; witness China, USSR, Cambodia, Romania, most African states, and most middle eastern nations. Ever wonder why Israel is exempt from this statement? Perhaps because they are a nation ruled by laws.
