I'm wondering if you even comprehend that if Barry is not eligible--and he knew it when he admitted his father transmitted British and then Kenayan national citizenship to him at birth and when Kenya gained independence--that allowing him to finish his term without being challenegd by the courts on the eligibility requirement in the Constitution, Barry will have changed the Constitution by default of openly being allowed to avoid the Constitutional requirements.

Perhaps that is why you keep insisting that this affirmative action bastard be allowed to finish his first term before challenging him in another election.

No, actually if one were to say that a President is in office illegally (i.e., not qualified per the Constitution) and he finished out his term (even if he was doing it knowingly) — that wouldn’t change the Constitution.

Just think of it this way... if a murderer gets away with murder, either on a technicality, or the case couldn’t be proven, or there was even “jury nullification” — the law on murder doesn’t *change* because of that. It remains the same.

What you’re saying is the equivalent to — if one person gets away with murder, then you cannot convict anyone else on murder, because that murder law is now changed and voided (because that one person got away with murder).

However, in Obama’s case, it’s still not clear if he’s qualified or not, by way of a birth certificate. He is qualified, by way of his signed legal statements (the same as other Presidential candidates).

So, nothing is really different about Obama at this stage, compared to other Presidents — except that a lot of people want to see his birth certificate.

Oh, one more thing on that... if the Constitution were to be “changed by default” then the 21st President of the United States, Chester A. Arthur, has already done it, because he wasn’t qualified per the Constitution, according to Leo Donofrio (on his website, he explains it).

And in Chester A. Arthur’s case, he did know he was not qualified and he actually destroyed all the documents that he could, in order to cover it up. But some things survived and we found out later.

So, the question is — Has the Constitution *already been changed* by default, because of Chester A. Arthur?
