Barack Obama

A one-time vice presidential candidate who is considered an expert on the U.S. Constitution says it is up the electors from the 50 states to make certain President-elect Barack Obama is a natural-born U.S. citizen before they cast votes for him in the Electoral College Dec. 15.

"If they do their duty, they would make sure that if they cast a vote for Mr. Obama, that Mr. Obama is a natural-born citizen," Herb Titus, the Constitution Party's running mate to Howard Phillips in 1996, told WND today.

This is one of the best articles I have seen on the subject. It also mentions that the whole slate Dem candidates (O, Biden, Hill) could get thrown out.

Yes, they do have that duty. (And if they don’t have standing to sue to compel production of the relevant documents, I don’t know who does.)

Will they fulfill it? I’m not holding my breath.

Congressmen and Senators have the duty to ask also. Will any follow up, and also investigate Obama’s alleged Indonesian citizenship?

That's a big "if". Not gonna happen. This issue is closed, whether O is a citizen or not. He may not be a citizen, but he's definitely gonna be president.

Need to keep getting the word out there. So many don’t even know anything about this.

They know how much Palin spent on clothes, but they have no idea that Barack Obama may not be Consitutionally eligible to be POTUS.

This media is on the verge of treason.

Does anyone honestly believe that Pres Bush would be having meetings with him, if he wasn’t eligible to be president?

President Bush would like 99% of the rest of America, assume that the DNC had properly vetted Obama.

There’s alot during the last 8 years that Bush and the rest of the GOP hasn’t had any backbone about. This is just another one.

Yes, they do have that duty.

Is there a penalty for NOT doing that duty?

(I haven't read the whole article, so I may have missed an answer to my question. No time right now.)

I think at this point President Bush doesn’t any any of the cheese, he just wants out of the trap.

No, the issue is NOT closed.
And it won't be closed until the issue is satisfied in accordance to the law.
If the law does not apply to Obama, it applies to NOBODY.

So the courts have to uphold the law, or they will have a lawless nation on their hands, and no job to go to.

NOTHING Obama signs can be law, because an Usurper" has no power to sign anything into law.

No bill passed in the senate can be signed into law, because as an USURPER, Obama has no power to sign anything into law.

So don't go thinking that the matter is closed, because it isn't.
This is just the same as an invasion of the nation. Would you say oh well, I can't do anything about it, so may as well live with it and take orders from the new leader?
Yes, somehow I think you would...

But I won't.

Why do you say that? I really doubt that Bush or his office would have any meetings with Obama if he weren’t cleared properly and actually was going to be the next president.

If one can overlook one Admendment to the Constitution then can I grab my gun and kidnap several black people and make them work on my plantation???? ie reinstate slavery based on race???? I don’t think so. That is the danger of ignoring the US Constitution.

Like he would know. Barack has been elected by the people, until something different happens Bush is sort of obligated to meet with him. Some asked, don’t you think that the Dummycraps vetted him. No really. The Dummycraps would do anything to win and stay in power. They coddled a rapist.

Bush has been blind to the misrepresentations and lies of his opponents since his first campaign for president began. His failure to defend himself, his administration, his policies, and the Constitution has left us where we are today.

Yes. Bush has been in a fog for the past 18 + months. I think they work for the same people and it is not the American public.

Be gone O-Bot.
