Also, Harlan, I’ve noticed that you’ve not answered some very critical questions:
Did Obama prove his eligibility in the Taitz case, and if so using what probative evidence?
Did Obama prove his eligibility in the Irion case, and if so using what probative evidence?
Did Obama prove his eligibility in the Hatfield case, and if so using what probative evidence?
If Irion had presented the online Kenyan BC and stipulated it as accurate, and Obama conceded the truth of it by his failure to show up or contest that evidence, would Malihi have been required to accept the Kenyan BC as probative?
I really hate lawyerly two-steps, and I’m not going to waste any more time with you unless and until you answer those questions. Everybody here can see you’re avoiding those questions like the plague, and I’d bet that most people know exactly why you’re avoiding them.
The same reason Obama avoided appearing in court even though he had nothing on his schedule for that day and had been ordered to appear.
Then they screwed up and convinced the judge the Obama was born in Hawaii.
As for Irion offering the Kenyan BC - don't forget that the judge has to agree with the stipulation. I doubt any reasonable judge would accept such a stipulation especially if questioning Obama’s birthplace was at the core of the plaintiff's case - it is more likely that he would allow it to be entered into evidence and make Irion make his case as to why it was valid.
The reason the judge accepted the BC and stipulation was because Irion said Obama’s birthplace was irrelevant to his case.
It's entirely up to the ALJ to determine the validity of any evidence presented. Malihi could have slept through the hearing and made his decision completely based on the Ankeny opinion.
