I don’t know about the rest of you folks, but I’ve been following this bit of news from a local paper and in the blogosphere and I feel the need to do my part and pass on what's happening:
Controversy continues to surround President-elect Barack Obama's eligibility to serve as president, and a case involving his birth certificate waits for its day before the U.S. Supreme Court. A constitutional lawyer said were it to be discovered that Mr. Obama is not a natural-born U.S.citizen, it would have grave consequences for the nation.

It's grave either way.....
Is it a coincidence that Obama’s Grandmother Dunham passed away on election eve, November 3, 2008? It is related to the constitutional eligibility of Obama? Once he was confident in victory, he had to take care of loose ends. Dunham was the last living US witness to the events and location of BHO’s naissance. Curious, they announce on election eve that she has succumbed from cancer, yet all the news previous to that was that she had a broken hip from a fall, went to the hospital and recovered. An election eve passing from a heretofore unannounced ailment is just too creepy. Hawaii officials said simultaneously there is a ‘birth certificate’ in our vault but its sealed.
All loose ends are tied up. I pray that I just am a paranoid conspiracy wing nut.
The BC issue is waiting in the wings until discontent with BO reaches critical mass.
That's all the GOP needs to do to take advantage of this persistent doubt. And when you are dealing with a Pied Piper, doubt is one of your best weapons.
“A constitutional lawyer said were it to be discovered that Mr. Obama is not a natural-born U.S.citizen, it would have grave consequences for the nation.”
Not a single one of the True Believers would utter so much as a f*rt in a wind storm. The question is, would ANYBODY do ANYTHING at ALL? The issue has been out there for months, and so far no one in any position of authority has done anything but yawn.
The economic collapse will not end until Obozo is out of office.
The controversy about his birth certificate will not go away until he proves where he was born. He has not done that yet. And will never voluntarily do that, because what he has said is a lie.
zer0's strategy all along has been that "people will get tired of it, lose interest, and it will go away".
It is the duty of every citizen to see that The Constitution is upheld and that it doesn't go away! Since the Federal Government has shirked it's duty, each State Legislature should enact a law that requires that eligibility be certified before a candidate's name is placed on the ballot.

Exactly, use Rules for Radicals
There are plenty out there there who feel that BO may very well be illegal as President, but also say that because of the consequences of acknowledging this, it is better to leave him alone.
I don't agree. I believe that riots (or worse) are preferable to an openly acknowledged unconstitutional President.
I think the risk of riots might be preferable to the slow economic strangulation that is in the works.
Then again.....
.....If they wait a little longer, there might not be any riots
.....There might be a celebration!
Maybe. If found inelligible, Plugs would replace Zero. But Harry Reid and 9 percent Nancy would still be writing the law (0bama hasn't vetoed anything yet, nor would Plugs). Face it, Pelosi and Reid are in charge of the country. Obama remains an empty suit.
However, confidence in the dems would plummet should Obama found to be inelligible. That might help some.
So why would the consequences be “grave”?? Ignoring the economic condition of the country for a second (which the Democrats have been doing since 1936 anyway), the progression seems pretty clear to me: declare The One to be The Unqualified... he is stripped off the throne and Biden is sworn in to replace him. Biden then names a new Veep, and the country continues rolling along.... careening downhill as we had before, save for several inner-city riots.
The most solid indication that there might be a legitimate reason for concern is the fact that Obama has expensive lawyers fighting efforts to force disclosure instead of simply ending the distraction by producing a valid birth cerificate.
Even if the courts and the Republican party don’t want to deal with the issue there are several states that may pass a law requiring candidates to document their eligibility to hold the office before they can be placed on the state ballot as candidates.
If just one state passes this type of law think what it could mean when the 2012 election gets started up.
I would like to see the requirement to provide proof of eligibility extended to the primaries as well.
Biden would take over. Is the lawyer implying Biden would be that much worse?
0bama is a communist bent on destroying this Country.
I'll take my chance with the idiot.
What I can’t understand is why he doesn’t cough up his original birth certificate if he has one. Jeepers, I had to show one when I applied for a job years ago. Everyone knows where their birth certificate is. Just produce the document and it is all over.
This makes me think that there is more to it than meets the eye.
His handlers should be reeling him in about now, but who knows. To the un-sheepled, it's already at critical mass. This guy has been too hands-off since the beginning and any questioning sends him off the deep end. Tin foil and all, but white granny never had any media exposure and died at a very convenient time. Notice too that black granny hasn't been talking to the media either since dropping the bombshell about him being born in Kenya. No one from his past is talking but Ayers but then he's about the only person who won't bow down to The Messiah because he knows full well it's all fake.
