The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously ruled Thursday that none of the challengers had legal standing to file the lawsuit. The plaintiffs included some of Obamas political rivals, taxpayers and military personnel.

The Black-Robed Priests strike again. Anything in their desperate effort to protect The Anointed One.
No one has standing except Obama.
If one is a US Citizen and has no standing in the court’s eyes can you stop paying taxes?
Enquiring minds want to know.
PRAY tell, WHO WOULD have the standing to challenge???

EVERY DAM CITIZEN HAS ‘STANDING’ TO KNOW IF THE PRESIDENT IS QUALIFIED
NOT ONLY PEOPLE THE DEMOCRAP PARTY
BY THIS LOGIC WE COULD FORM A PARTY AND RUN ANYONE IF WE *SAY* WE ARE SATISFIED HE IS LEGIT
who was stupid enough to file this in the 9th circus?
i think maybe someone who WANTED this outcome
Hmm, now THERE’S an interesting thought.
Someone should file a lawsuit asking who DOES have standing to get these answers.
We are getting effed royally by the immigrant but we have no “standing” to challenge him.
I think you’d have to be a judge to have the “standing” to merit a decision from judges on who has “standing.” All others will be dismissed for “lack of standing.”
I believe that the courts believe that the Constitution only allows eligibility to be determined by the Electoral College.
Every state has in its election laws a procedure for challenging a candidate's eligibility for the office he is seeking. In some states, any voter can bring the challenge; in others, only another candidate on the ballot for the same office can bring the challenge. But in every state there is a very narrow window when such challenges can be heard (usually from the time the candidate files for the office until the date the ballots are printed).
In 2008, no one used any of these election laws to challenge Obama's eligibility. Instead, lawsuits were filed after the election. But once Obama was elected, only Congress could challenge his eligibility (when it counted the electoral votes, or thereafter via impeachment); the courts no longer had any role.
Pesumably, someone will mount an election challenge to Obama in 2012; if they follow the proper procedure (not likely if they're represented by Orly Taitz), they will get a definitive court ruling.
That stands to reason...
“In 2008, no one used any of these election laws to challenge Obama’s eligibility. Instead, lawsuits were filed after the election.”
There was a lawsuit filed by a Dem, and was told that he had no standing due to obama had not been elected yet. (I’m working from memory here, the reasoning could be wrong).
I don't think that's right. Do you know the name of the case? Or which court?
Naturalized citizen, Abdul K. Hassan, has filed suit in Federal Court against the State of Colorado alleging it is a discriminatory practice to require a person to file a Statement of Candidacy with a box checked to indicate the candidate for POTUS is a Natural born citizen.

Hassan refuses to perjure himself and claim Natural born citizen status to get on the Colorado ballot as a candidate for President of the United States.
Under SCOTUS precedent Schneider v Rusk, 377 U.S. 163 (1964), “Held by a majority of this Court, that § 352(a)(1) is discriminatory, and therefore violative of due process under the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution, since no restriction [...] applies to native-born citizens ...” Pp. 164-169.
Hassan is claiming discrimination based on national origin. The Federal Election Commission has offered Hassan an opinion a naturalized citizen has the right to raise and receive funds for his campaign for POTUS, but he is not eligible for Federal matching funds because of his naturalization status.
The GA thing is still ongoing.
I don’t have the case number handy, but here is more infor:

“Cort Wrotnowskis emergency application for a stay and/or injunction as to the Electoral College meeting on Dec. 15 was today referred to the full Court by the Honorable Associate Justice Antonin Scalia. It has been distributed for Conference of Friday December 12. The official case name is WROTNOWSKI v. BYSIEWICZ, United States Supreme Court Docket No. 08A469.
The Wrotnowski Supreme Court application was prepared by Leo Donofrio, Esq. and is centered on the same issue from Donofrios case which was discussed by the Supreme Court in its conference of December 5 whether Barack Obama is not eligible to the office of President due to the fact that he was a British citizen at the time of his birth.”
