President-Elect Tries To Weed Out Controversial Candidates
Applicants for President-elect Barack Obama's Cabinet get ready to chronicle your life story.
Those interested in joining Obama's administration have to pass an extensive background test.
The questionnaire, the New York Times reported, includes 63 requests for personal and professional records, some covering applicants’ spouses and grown children as well, that are forcing job-seekers to rummage from basements to attics, in shoe boxes, diaries and computer archives to document both their achievements and missteps, the Times said.
Obama wants applicants to “list all aliases or ‘handles’ you have used to communicate on the Internet,” and asks people to include any e-mail that might embarrass the president-elect, along with any blog posts and links to their Facebook.com pages.
Hoping to weed out anyone with ties to companies at the center of the $700 billion bailout, question 18 of the Obama application asks whether “you, your spouse or any member of your immediate family” have been affiliated with Fannie, Freddie, American International Group, Washington Mutual and any other institution getting a government bailout.
“President-elect Obama made a commitment to change the way Washington does business, and the vetting process exemplifies that,” Stephanie Cutter, chief spokeswoman for the Obama transition office, told the Times.

Barry can’t pass Barry’s background checks!
I’m pretty sure I could present a birth certificate as proof of citizenship.

I’m pretty sure I could present a birth certificate as proof of citizenship.
CHANGE! CHANGE! CHANGE!
Open Dislosure or CHANGE to Complete Deceit?
1. No living witnesses attest to his birth in Hawaii (Family members, Doctors, Nurses, Friends or Neighbors)
2. No prior neighbors, friends, or former claasmates have come forward and placed his mother visably pregnant in Hawaii.
3. Refusal to disclose the Original Birth Certificate that would reveal date, place, parentage, and blood type after numerous requests
4. No infant or very early childhood photos with mother, father, grandparents, or friends in any location have been published.
5. No existing Dept. of Education Hawaii records for Noeliani Elementary kindergarten class where he claimed he attended (Note: Birth Certificate required for registration)
6. No release of medical records that could trace to circumstances of birth including dates, place, parentage, blood type, etc.
7. No educational records released, all secondary education records sealed including applications that would reveal legal name, age, US or foreign student status.
8. No records of adoption, name change, or explanation for use of several names that have been documented through the years.
9. Video testimony of high school friend (Blake) who explains he travelled through Washingtom State as a newborn enroute to Harvard to join a father who oddly did not attend Harvard until the following year. (Either the biography or the testimony is an untruth.)
10. Birth announcements supposedly placed in Hawaiin newspapers that have not been substantiated with microfiche and a home address listed in the notice unrelated to all known and documented famial addresses.
11. Testimony of a Kenyan Grandmother and two half siblings who state he was born in Kenya, but now refuse to be interviewed?
12. Documentation that lists him by another name than his current name while enrolled in school in Indonesia?
13. Three separate breaches of his Passport file by independent contractors to the State Department in January & February ‘08 conducted by his campaign donors? See PassportGate.
14. Personal attempts to slide verbage into unecessary Senate Resolution 511 that would have granted natural-born status retroactively to infants born abroad to all single US citizens regardless of circumstance?
15. Allowing forged copies of his purported COLB to stand on Democrat websites?
16. Numerous descrepancies regarding dates and locations that differ from the original biographies presented to the general public. Actual school attendance, apartment locations, major historic events are inconsistent with the timeline presented.)
17. Spending millions of dollars hiring teams of Constitutional lawyers to fight the disclosure of the original BC in multiple states and levels of jurisdiction up through the Supreme Court of the United States?
18. No public statement from his beloved grandmother or interviews allowed since 2004. Known as a pioneer feminist in the banking industry, she undoubtedly would have drawn supporters to the campaign. After nearly a solid year of speculation and curiosity which erupted during the early Primary election, she never came forward with a simple statement on her grandson’s behalf.
19. Amiguous public statements by Hawai’in authorities, stating they have ‘A’ certificate on file, BUT never stating he is born in Hawaii or a native born citizen of the Uniited States of America.
20.. No answer to the One MILLION dollar reward being offered for the presentation of an authenticated vault copy of the birth certificate delivered to the Supreme Court of the United States.
I’m sure there is a very good and simple honest explanation for all of this.************************************************
Obama couldn’t pass the interview/background check for any company I’ve worked for.....
“do you pal around with anti-American terrorists and racists?”
/sarcasm
“If you have ever sent an electronic comunication (...) that could sugges a conflict of interest or be a possible source of embarrasment to you (...) if it were made public please describe”
Yeah right. This is not to build a cabinet, it’s a fishing expedition.
When I read the title I was thinking: “Of course I could pass the background check [or lack thereof] that Obama passed!”
...and then I see you’re talking about the check that he’s imposing on cabinet members; I don’t know. If it’s based on facts and not ideological items, maybe.
Obama’s $140 in parking fees and $260 in late fees notwithstanding.
bump
Question is, could Obama pass the Obama background check?
Question is, could Obama pass the Obama background check?
Why aren’t the posts showing up? Or is it just me?....
Barack Hussein Obama could not pass ANY background check.
This thread is broke? ...posting are displaying for me???
It is a shame Presidential candidates are not required to do the same. We know neither of the Clintons nor Obama would have gotten security clearances. Al Gore nor John Kerry either, probably, if association with Communists was considered. Maybe the Communists are no longer considered enemies.
No problem, I filled out a similiar Standard Form 86 over 4 decades ago. One of the most exciting and memorable times for some of my relatives, my wife’s relatives and friends were the visits by the FBI and ? to see what I had done.
Obama could never pass the vetting a background check that hundreds of us on this board passed.
Below is a link to the form we had to fill out:
