Despite failing in courts across the country, Plaintiffs have continued to file lawsuits alleging that President Obama is ineligible to serve as the American President because he is not a natural born U.S. citizen. However, as set forth above, federal courts cannot grant Plaintiffs the relief sought because the issues which Plaintiffs raise in their pleadings are constitutionally committed to the jurisdiction of another branch of the federal government. If Plaintiffs believe that President Obama has violated the law, their remedy is to alert Congress to the alleged wrongdoing. Congress could then initiate impeachment proceedings with the aid of an independent and special prosecutor.
Plaintiffs could also lobby Congress or the states to pass a Constitutional amendment defining the phrase natural born citizen as used in Article II of the Constitution or pass laws requiring presidential candidates to prove their citizenship before taking office. U.S. Const. art. V.
In sum, as fully analyzed above, Plaintiffs declaratory relief action is barred by the political question doctrine, is moot, and Plaintiffs lack standing to bring this action. Additionally, the Speech or Debate Clause of the U.S. Constitution bars Plaintiffs lawsuit against Congress. Accordingly, the Court grants the motions to dismiss filed by Federal Defendants and California Defendants and dismisses Plaintiffs first cause of action without leave to amend. [...]

Verbal tap-dancing.
Very cowardly. You can imagine the judge cowering in fright in the corner as he scribbled this opinion.
We’ve used the soap box.
We’ve used the ballot box.
We’ve used the jury box...
The Judiciary is every bit the equal of Congress when it comes to reining in the Executive.
K... We are back to the “No Standing” ploy ...
That is a myth by lazy judges
They overturn laws made by Congress, based on Constitutional grounds. They can make enforceable judgements on the Executive and Legislative branch all the time, based on Constitutional grounds
They can rule that the President violated the Constitution....and have him removed.
Wait wait wait waiiiiit... you mean to tell me that someone with a law degree actually said this with a straight face? You mean to tell me that someone actually proposed that we pass a Constitutional amendment to define a phrase that's already in the Constitution?
What the Hell sort of circus clown car bullshit is this? What country do we live in?
Why don’t they ask the Kenyan why he would promote himself as being born in Kenya while at college and while running for Senator? Was there a reason for this? Either way he is lying. If he wasn’t born in Kenya then he was lying while at college and while running for Senate. If he was born in Kenya, then we have probably the biggest case of fraud in US politics.
Great ruling, the judge is explicit in the why and why not. The court, even the SCOTUS, has no jurisdiction on the matter as per Article 2 Section 4. It is the responsibility of Congress.
This is what some of us have been saying all along since the election 2008.
Congress? Constitution? Hahaha! He’s already said he’s working above and beyond the eunuchs of Congress. He’s trashed the Constitution. Who’s taking bets on him being in office long after 2016?
Exactly. This alone should have triggered triggered a congressional investigation but both major political parties are too invested in keeping the facts suppressed. The natural born citizen requirement in the constitution has been functionally repealed.
Everything this impostor has put his hand to is invalid and should be voided. Impeachment won't do this.
Just one left.
I don’t think that “brown stuff” running out his ears has anything to do with brains.
In the oral arguments of this case, Judge England asked what federal law says you need valid ID to be president. Attorney Taitz found the Selective Service registration is need for executive branch work. Of course Sheriff Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse found Obama’s Selective Service Registration card to have been forged. The Judge dismissed the case despite that.
Of course.
The Roberts Court set precedent with the Obamacare decision:
You voted; now live with the results.

Roberts basically reduced the SC to a mid-morning brunch.
