Thank you FN, but it is not the thing I am after.
This explains the “sampling”, what I am after explains specifically how the birth certificate numbers were assigned.

Does it not dawn on you that lawyers who face-plant in court every single time might not be your best source of legal analysis? Donofrio’s self-administered fleecing in his latest birthed-related case left him so bitter he vowed never again to willing go to federal court.
“Does the fogbow crowd still want to hang their hats on this memo?”
I expect they’ll be O.K. with a report by the Congressional Research Service agreeing with them and Leo Donofrio not. In any case, the report is for Congress. I doubt members of Congress take much legal advice from either Fogbow or Donofrio.

Democratic Presidential Petition-Forging Scandal Investigation Ongoing
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2815018/posts
“The investigation of how the 2008 Indiana presidential campaign of Barack Obama forged enough signatures so that his name could appear on the Indiana presidential primary ballot is still ongoing according to a report in today’s South Bend Tribune.”
[snip]
It is definite now that Obama was part of, or heading up, a criminal endeavor.
But it begs the question as to "why"?? Congress didn't care about the definition of NBC in 2008. Why do they care now?? Why do they need a report that expands the definition beyond even the most twisted interpretation of Wong Kim Ark?? And why do we take the legal advice of one guy, when a 9-0 decision defined NBC exclusively as all children born in the country to parents who were its citizens??? Jack Maskell does NOT trump the Supreme Court.
Placemark and a wave!
"If it is known that the child..."
Difficult to challenge something, in this sense, that isn't there.
or rather...isn’t known.
Only when representing something to a court, and even then, they can misrepresent as long as there is a colorable argument. Keep in mind that court opinions relating to contentious issues often contain gross and radical misrepresentation of binding precedent. In other words, judges do it too.
-- Maskell had to have known that he was butchering the text. Surely that must be an ethics breach, no? --
There's "ethics breach" in the general sense of being honest; which Maskell likely knows he is coloring the presentation (that is, he knows he is avoiding certain text, and that he is substituting his own paraphrase where it suits his end); and then there is a threshold that bothers the enforcer. The threshold varies, depending on the case. Again, sometimes the court itself engages in misleading and avoiding inconvenient precedent.
By and large, the courts are honest (most civil cases and criminal trials); but firearms law, "NBC," abortion, commerce clause, etc. are pretty much a show of force - the rational logic in those situations is out the window.

Quite likely they’re getting letters from constituents. They probably got a few in 2008, but remember that until late in 2008, October or November, no one held the two-citizen-parent theory. The eligibility of the native-born may have been in doubt before the 14’th Amendment and its interpretation in U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark, but not in our time.

So quote that “exclusively” part of your favorite decision there. Show where, even in dicta, the Court said *only* that class are NBC.
Congress employs experts such as Maskell because Congress need real experts, not pretenders.

Darn sure trumps birthers.
Law suits are piling up and Secretaries of 57 States need official propaganda to dismiss them.
So 39 years ago, why did my Teacher tell our 5th grade class this theory in 1972? Could it be a time warp? Without 2 US citizens as parents, you have legitimate claims to foreign citizenship. That's a sorry ass fact for our sorry ass Kenyan president, isn't it?
“With Barry’s personal firewall (Holder) out of the way, there will be a period of time before Holder’s replacement is in position.”
The POOF (Presidential Office of Firewall) is no place for OJT.
=)
It doesn't show up on the recording too well but being there I can tell there were many chuckles at that and smirks from not only the commission members but as [he] was speaking it.
Just to set the record straight, the quote is "I have to been to 57 states now with 1 left to go, except Alaska and Hawaii, my staff wouldn't let me go even though I wanted to they just couldn't justify it."
So 57+1 left to go + 2 Alaska and Hawaii=60 SoS's
I'm so looking forward to seeing the talking heads spout that line so they can get bopped.
Since you've invested so much stock in him...Just what kind of "expert" is Maskell?
I know three people who voted for Obama, and intend to again.
I find it of no coincidence that Obama is not qualified and that these people voted for him. All three have strong foreign ties and think America sucks, like Obama. All three take joy in watching America go down the shitter. All three will vote for Obama again. Two out of three have Islamic roots. This is Obamas base in 2012, People who hate America.
We need to organize and settle on a document to post outside polling stations. We need two or three standard lines to add to all comments on the Internet.
Maybe a thread would help. We need a consistent message. It's bullshit that we have to tolerate a Kenyan/Indonesian president.
