INDIANAPOLIS -- Two Indiana men filed a lawsuit claiming that President-elect Barack Obama is not eligible to serve as president.
The suit questions whether Obama meets the constitutional requirement that the president must be a "natural born citizen."
Obama's birth certificate says he was born in Hawaii, but his father was not a U.S. citizen and some have claimed the document is a fake.
The U.S. Supreme Court this month refused without comment to hear a challenge to Obama's citizenship.
The Indianapolis Star reports the Indiana suit was filed in Marion Superior Court in Indianapolis by Steve Ankeny, New Castle, and Bill Kruse, Roselawn.

I found it interesting that Obama took the time to describe ingreat detail his BC in one of his books. Sort of preemptive.
Well, God bless these new patriots of liberty. I hope in the generations to come their names are part of our history as the two who withstood the tide of evil.
Supposedly Leona never said that. It was an invention of the mind of a recalcitrant servant.
No, they’ll just be remembered as naysayers on the road to the socialist paradise the people of IN are awaiting.
These cases seem to be continuously be sprouting up. It’s great. The more cases, the better. If it goes on for a while, something will have to break.
Newspapers, get a clue. You want readers, break a big story. This might be one.
Biden. See 25th amendment
The president is above the law?
Interesting take on American democracy.
You said — “Biden. See 25th amendment”
That can’t happen from any court action after Obama is sworn in, as it’s only the Congress that can impeach and convict a President after he’s sworn in. And I don’t expect the overwhelming Democrat Congress to do that, any more than it convicted Clinton...
And there is not enough time between now and the time for swearing in Obama, for a court to do a thing, in that case listed above.
That was the whole point of putting out the forged document. It was not intended to fool anybody who actually looked at it. It was intended to provide journalists with something to REFER to in stories as a “birth certificate.”
This woman has a very good case if she could find a laywer willing to work for free. http://publish.indymedia.org/en/2008/12/918253.shtml
Hawaii Revised Statutes
HRS 0338-0020 0005.htm
(a) The department of health SHALL establish a HAWAII CERTIFICATE OF BIRTH for a person BORN IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY and child by adoptive parent or parents.
Hawaii Revised Statutes
HRS 0578-0014.htm
(b) If a NEW BIRTH CERTIFICATE... is issued, the
ORIGINAL birth certificate SHALL be SEALED.
Well, Obama’s BC WAS sealed.
Not only that but Hawaii cant just willy nilly be giving out new BC’s to foreign people and sealing the original.
You said — “If it goes on for a while, something will have to break.”
Here’s the thing with that — and these court cases. There are only a very few more days that a court can say anything. And the length of time that these cases take just for *one step* along the process — is longer than the time to Obama’s swearing in.
And once Obama is sworn in, then any court case is “moot” and it won’t rule on any issue like this, because it *then* become an issue that *only* Congress can take up. And I don’t expect an overwhelming Democrat Congress to do a thing, any more than what came out of Clinton’s mess...
All court cases are *dead* after Obama is sworn in — in terms of “removing Obama” from office.
Anybody who intends to raise gasoline to $8/gallon has no intention of facing another election.
You said — “Anybody who intends to raise gasoline to $8/gallon has no intention of facing another election.”
Still, it’s a good measure to prevent this kind of thing from happening again, no matter who is running for election. It has become very obvious to many people on this Free Republic board that we have found *no way* to *actually* enforce this “qualifications” issue. Therefore, this situation should be corrected by that state law in several states, that I mentioned above.
20th Amendment:
Section 3.
If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall become President. If a President shall not have been chosen before the time fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.
Don’t think you’ve seen this one article. BTW, my list is up to 15. Not every one posts continuously on the BC threads. There are more I should add.
There are even those that are Republicans think this has all been settled.
Well, since one of his close advisers is ex CIA higher up, and had a look at his passport files illegally, I’d say a well made forgery is about to be sprung upon the courts. That is likely the reason he has stonewalled for so long, getting the best forgery money can buy and getting it into the vault in Hawaii. The Internet forgery could not be used to stand before a court so the new forgery must be so close to perfect that it will pass scrutiny. And many of the sheeple will exhale a sigh of relief even if they suspect the forgery. You know there are nine black robed oligarchs who will be relieved if he presents a really good forgery!
*sigh* Yes. Damn you.
Froggie and all- listen to the plainsradio broadcast http://www.plainsradio.com/monday.html
archived ( I believe under Lions Den-2, sorry not a regular PC here) from 12/22 Monday where OK state rep Mike Ritze says there is traction in OK legislature with certain members mulling protest. Herein he also states US Senator Jim Inhofe may be sympathetic. There is apparently a GA US House rep willing to step forward. I am not sure at all about the claim of one US senator and One US House rep being sufficient. for blockage (perhaps sufficient for hearing) per other threads here.
Roving- that is quite a fine offering by the ericson party. That exactly addresses the glaring insanity of the Hawaii BC problem.
Hope she finds her lawyer, or better yet, other parties run with this. Checked out her youtube vid though, and she is one abrasive libertarian, to be polite.
LEGAL ARGUMENT #3
The State of Hawaii has exceeded its authority by making its own Rule of Naturalization with its Un-Constitutional Birth Certificate Laws which create Naturalization by SEALING the birth certificate of a FOREIGN born person and issuing the foreign born person a NEW birth certificate fraudulently stating they were born in Hawaii.
LEGAL ARGUMENT #4
The Constitution of the United States is a CONTRACT between government and we, the people; and Hawaii has impaired the obligation of contracts by exceeding its authority and making its own rules of naturalization.
Seems I might have read somewhere that even if a forgery of the vault BC is created, it would also be on microfiche with other ones in the same sequence? Or something like that?
Seems as though it would be really hard to do, without messing with a whole bunch of other birth certs.
I’m just trying to to be depressed about it.
