WorldNetDaily ^ | 11/20/08 | Bob Unruh

Posted on 11/20/2008 5:20:26 AM PST by Sammy67

A case that challenges President-elect Barack Obama's name on the 2008 election ballot citing questions over his citizenship has been scheduled for a "conference" at the U.S. Supreme Court.

Conferences are private meetings of the justices at which they review cases and decide which ones to accept for formal review. This case is set for a conference Dec. 5, just 10 days before the Electoral College is scheduled to meet to make formal the election of Obama as the nation's next president.

The Supreme Court's website listed the date for the case brought by Leo C. Donofrio against Nina Wells, the secretary of state in New Jersey, over not only Obama's name on the 2008 election ballot but those of two others, Sen. John McCain and Roger Calero.

The case, unsuccessful at the state level, had been submitted to Justice David Souter, who rejected it. The case then was resubmitted to Justice Clarence Thomas. The next line on

To paraphrase TS Elliott, "This is how the Republic ends, not with a bang, but a whimper". And that whimper you are hearing is the white middle class.

Have you no faith left in the American people? Do you not believe that millions of us would rather die, than surrender the last of our freedoms to an illegal despot and his fellow Bolsheviks?

“Joe Biden would not become President if Obama were disqualified. The whole ticket would be disqualified. Thus, McCain / Palin could still win.”
I’m not sure the court would make that decision. It would
be far better to call for new elections.”

Possibly new elections.

BUT- NObama is NOT elegible for the position of Prez if not natural born. Therefore, Biden, who was not elected, but chosen as a Veep running mate, cannot be given the job.
The entire ticket is not eligible.
I think NObama knew this from the very first. He woulds also have been not eligible for his Senator from Illinois position. Wonder if that is why all his records were shredded? Something in loose notes or what ever that mentions he was not natural born?

The fault of all of this is plainly on the shoulders of NObama. He and he alone knew for years that he was not natural born.
The second level of blame goes to Howard Dean and the DNC. They should have vetted him more closely.

I hope there are some strong spines in the Supremes and they realize that letting NObama continue forward with this HOAX is putting the entire USA in jeopardy.
Who might be the next candidate? Osama Bin Laden???

We already know that NObama broke every campaign law with accepting money for all over the world.
Letting this HOAX continue is a slap in the face of every person who does things right and a slap at every United States military person who has fought and/or died for the things this country stands for.

Supremes may decline to hear the case.

After 0Bama is disqualified, there needs to be a change to allow any US citizen to run for any office. I am just clearing the way to run for President in 2012 hehe.

Somewhere in old Illinois State Senator records, I saw his middle initial as “J” rather ‘H’. It was a form type document. Could have been a typo or a clue to yet another alias.

To paraphrase TS Elliott, "This is how the Republic ends, not with a bang, but a whimper". And that whimper you are hearing is the white middle class.

In a state of tranquillity, wealth, and luxury, our descendants would forget the arts of war and the noble activity and zeal which made their ancestors invincible. Every art of corruption would be employed to loosen the bond of union which renders our resistance formidable. When the spirit of liberty, which now animates our hearts and gives success to our arms, is extinct, our numbers will accelerate our ruin and render us easier victims to tyranny.

Ye abandoned minions of an infatuated ministry, if peradventure any should yet remain among us, remember that a Warren and Montgomery are numbered among the dead. Contemplate the mangled bodies of your countrymen, and then say, What should be the reward of such sacrifices? Bid us and our posterity bow the knee, supplicate the friendship, and plow, and sow, and reap, to glut the avarice of the men who have let loose on us the dogs of war to riot in our blood and hunt us from the face of the earth?

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom--go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!

Samuel Adams August 1, 1776

He eliminated his own democrat political opponents based on technilcalities.

He won by unsealing and forcing their private and highly person, embarassing family lives before the public.

This man knows the game he is playing all to well.

Then, his fall from grace will be all that more ironic.

They don't even have baby onions in this case.

Do a search for "Obama" + "Supreme Court" on Google News. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. This story is being buried deeper than deep.

Or try a Google News search on "Donofrio". A couple of hits, one of which is WND.

Can you imagine the headlines that we would be seeing if this situation were reversed: McCain wins and the Supreme Court is about to hold a meeting of 9 justices to discuss his elgibility?

In fact can you imagine the media not reporting the Supreme Court reviewing Obama's elgibility? I really can't but it is happening before our eyes. Welcome to 1984.

“May your chains sit lightly upon you.”

So many have NO IDEA what is really coming.
But sadly, it’s NEEDED by many to be able to see the light.

Here is another reason to play this game.

Just suppose he is qualified.
Not born in Hawaii, yet still elligible.

What if he was born in Chicago or Seattle and dumped with the Dunhams after the novelty of a newborn became to great a burden for a teenager.

His demonstration of not being forthright with his records regarding elligibilty opens the door for the rest of the world that may want to be POTUS.

He sets a precedent that no proof need be shown of age, citizenship, name, or natural-born status and turns our Constitution into....

words.......just words

Is Obama a U.S. citizen?

Actually, we do not know for sure.

If his mother allowed the adoption to Lolo Soetoro and his loss of any US citizenship at that time, since there is NO Dual Citizenship for him to fall back on when he returned to the States, he is still an Indoesian Citizen. Possibly in the USofA ILLEGALLY.

If he was really born in Kenya, he was a British Citizen and not a US Citizen due to the Constitutional Regulations in effect when he was born in 1961. He admited to "losing his Kenyan citizenship" when Kenya became a Country free of British rule but that could be a lie IF Lolo Soetoro actually adopted him, Obama lost any Kenyan connection because Indonesia doesn't recognize dual citizenship.

The Bottom Line is that Barry Dunham Soetoro (how he was registered for school in Indonesia and Lolo Soetoro had no reason to lie) was listed as an Indonesian Citizen when he was a child living in Indonesia. There is NO record of his ever reclaiming US Citizenship.

Obama claims he was a Constitutional lawyer and taught Constitutional Law. He must not have READ the Constitution or the Federalist Papers because he was too busy reading Marx and Alinsky.

His Team mentioned that there was something in his Vault (Long) Copy of his BC that would "embarrass" him. My contention is that it's one or more of the following: 1- He's NOT a US Citizen; 2- There's no father listed or the father listed is not Obama Senior; 3- His name is not Barack Hussein Obama, he made that up to impress college age girls; 4- Since Kenyan Arabs are considered Caucasoid (and not black), then his RACE may be listed as Caucasian. http://racialreality.110mb.com/subraces.html

I doubt that last one will sit well with Blacks in the USofA. Jessie Jackson had the right idea.
