The simplest theories are:

* he's not a natural-born citizen, or * there is something else incrimiating in that document.

For an example of the latter, suppose the Big O is a natural-born citizen but is not the son of the father that he claims; this would be a major embarrassment - but it would not disqualify him from being President.

Therefore the strongest theory is that he is not a natural-born citizen. This theory is easily falsifiable, which makes it a good theory.

Of course, no one expects the MSM to acknowledge facts or logic any more!

People in power want control of information. They don't want anything leaking out and don't make concessions without a fight. "Executive privilege" grows out of that desire for control.

You can't say, "this is the strongest reason for wanting to restrict information, therefore it's the reason someone in power wants to limit access." Simply asserting that one reason is stronger, doesn't eliminate other reasons.

Yes. I think you and the brigade should don knave costumes, march with zeal on D.C. January 20 and demand that no swearing in takes place until the birth certificate is proffered and authenticated to your satisfaction.
And you EV should lead the group. A better personification of Simon Tappertit I could not imagine.

Obama is hiding something on his birth certificate and in his school records.

Obama is thus a target for blackmail.

Do we want the president making decisions while being blackmailed?

You have to know that China, Russia, Pakistan, Iran, Israel - will find out his secrets - if they don’t have the goods on him already.

I just want to factcheck it.

Hmmm...interesting choice of words.

My source for the information is Gary Kreep, the head of the United States Justice Foundation, who is representing Dr. Keyes in the CA case. If anyone knows what he is up against, it's Gary.

You can't just say, "These are facts, so there."

You need some kind of attribution, some reference as to where the "fact" is coming from.

OK, on or about the 25th of October, Obama's official campaign website posted this statement:

“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children. Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”

http://fightthesmears.com/articles/5/birthcertificate

I take the above statement as an omission of fact, and I believe a court would too.

The other 'fact' saying Obama hiring law firms to to defend him I thought came from a reliable source, although I can't recall where. I'll bet my whole bank account that it's true. I don't know how anyone can conceivably doubt that Obama has not hired lawyers to defend him with an array of law suits heading his way.

I see. You don’t have anything useful, reasonable, or pertinent to add to the conversation.

The fact remains that Obama has chosen a different path. One possible explanation is that he was born in Kenya and hence must go down this path in order to become President.

In both cases, I believe the above to be the truth.

As to which path he's chosen to deal with this issue, it's fairly clear that he's taking the path of no return. He and the DNC are fully invested in his presidency, and have 66 million votes underlying that. They're in with the treachery and have crossed over into actual treason against their country.

It's clear to me, at least, that he and his comrades would rather violate the Constitution and endure any political or social risk, to carry out their Socialist agenda.

Looking at this in that light sheds a great deal of light on the mindset and loyalties of these people. They obviously only pay lip service to America. At heart, they are globalists, with allegiance only to Socialism and world government.

That may sound wild-eyed to some, but there is no other answer. It's happening right before our eyes. The proof? No one on the Democrat side, except for Phil Berg is honestly asking Obama to do the right thing.

I believe some people are speculating that he travelled on an Indonesian or passport.

Yes, and I don't know where this idea originated, or why.

By the way, concerning your silly obscure literary reference: I don’t believe in mob action, although Sam Adams would most certainly have taken issue with me on that.

Thanks, I read so much on this topic it’s hard to recall it all 100%. Is there a huge difference(a sense of Senate Resolution) or how does that work?

I have to post, you see, so interested onlookers and lurkers don't go away thinking all at FR are vapid loons.
Besides that, Michelle Malkin enjoys reading my posts.

By the way, in the most literal sense, it is folks like you who are in fact arguing for mob rule: The rulership of the majority by force without reference to the rule of law as expressed in the Supreme Law of the Land, ie the Constitution.

“Time to give up the Birth Cert. crap folks”

Tokyo Rose, Is that you?

You have it all wrong.
It's time for mr Obama to give up the long form birth certificate.

Now I understand that you would rather just give up
but some of us will fight on. Our country means more to us.
Why bother calling us names?
You go back to waxing your car with Old Glory and we
will “Defend and Uphold the Constitution: as promised.

The thread is now officially degenerating: ding ding. time out.

The best part of this discussion are not the personal attacks; but the meat of the matter and superior argumentation.

hint hint.

I've a question: What do you and your pals think of Sarah Palin since she isn't talking about this issue?

I happen to believe the charismatic and brilliant governor of Alaska would be of like opinion as Michelle M., Rush, and jla.

Don't get me wrong I think the world of Rush but he does use FR stuff all the time and seldom gives us credit.
From my standpoint I don't care,its the message that counts and no one delivers better that he does. But it happens just the same.

I was not making a personal attack. I was making a factual statement. The abrogation of the Constitution is the end of ordered liberty.
