This is just amazing. I have to show an original birth certificate to get a drivers license but the President doesn't have to, to become POTUS!

Just amazing.

Do we have a conservative state legislature filing and acting on this bill? Presidents still need to file papers with each Sec. of State in order to run - we only need 1 state to do this!

My sorry RINO Congressman (yes I’m talking about YOU, Tom Price!) hasn’t got the guts to ask, so I’m going to send Rep Posey an email thanking him for having the courage to stand up and not just “go along”.

Is Posey the “certain Republican” that will get you on the “militia” list if you support him?

The point here is that the WHOLE GOVERNMENT is in the tank on this. They want to be in total control of our lives and fortunes such as they are. It doesn’t matter, Pubbie or Dem, they all lust for the POWER!

WOW! Just contemplate what an out cry if 40-50 Republican Congressman demanded to show the birth certificate and continued to persist for proof! WOW! The Democrats would scream but this steadfast protest would be hard to ignore. How do you think this scenario would play out?

I just called Congressman Posey’s Washington office and thanked him for his bill and that I’ve written my Congressman asking him to at least support or preferably join in this effort.

We already know that the Ruling Class are above our laws. Laws are only for the worker slaves in order to keep us in line.

Every one on this board could compile a list of 35-40 government officals who should be in prison, but have never even been charged.

Just look at tax cheat Sec. of Tres.

You have to wonder what the President is hiding that he would subject himself to this.

The most transparent Presidency my @$$.

I have my copy within my reach. If needed I could scan it and post it or fax it anyplace that wanted it. This would take me less than 5 minutes. It would cost me nothing. Obama can also do this but he refuses. WHY?

Biden’s Gridiron Humor- Is Obama Laughing? - ALAN KEYES
America’s Independent Party ^ | March 24, 2009 | Alan Keyes

Posted on Tuesday, March 24, 2009 9:55:04 AM by EternalVigilance

Loyal to Liberty

Today WND reports that Congressman Bill Posey is being jeered at and ridiculed by the leftist media and some of his colleagues in the US Congress. Why? He dared to propose a piece of legislation “that would require future presidential candidates to document their eligibility.” Apparently the idea that people in Congress would actually fulfill their oaths of office and seek the information required to assure respect for the US Constitution is now considered insane.

Ridicule is a standard tactic of deceivers trying to discredit anyone who draws attention to their dishonesty. With respect to the eligibility issue, however, it requires very little thought and just a modicum of common sense to see through the ploy. The reason for mobilizing the jeering section is also clear. Admitting that in future it would be appropriate to verify the eligibility of candidates for President strongly implies that it would be appropriate to do so now.

The partisan and media hacks desperately seeking to marginalize the issue of Obama’s eligibility (including Vice-President Biden) must deal with one hard fact: Barack Obama has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars paying lawyers to prevent access to his full birth certificate and any other records that might have a bearing on the question of his citizenship status.

Given this fact, let’s for a moment ignore the Obama faction’s mobocratic tactics, and apply some common sense logic.

Either Obama has a reason for his behavior, or he doesn’t.

If he doesn’t, the behavior is irrational. Irrational behavior is generally not taken as conclusive evidence of sanity.

If Obama’s behavior is rational, then it’s logical to conclude that he wishes to keep from public view something contained in his full birth certificate, or other records that may reflect its content. Some fact not otherwise known is being hidden from the public. It may have a bearing on the issue of his Constitutional eligibility to serve as President, or it may not. In either case, he is so concerned about its possible public impact that he would rather damage the perceived authority of the Constitution (a direct violation of his sworn duty as a public official of the United States) than let it be known. It’s hard to imagine anything contained in a birth certificate that would be matter for such personal embarrassment as to justify this dereliction of public duty. No sane person, and I think especially no right thinking American, would hold an infant responsible for the sins or views of his parents. But perhaps merely avoiding personal embarrassment is not the reason for his efforts to conceal.

Assuming that Obama knows the contents of his full birth certificate, he would also know whether or not they contradict public statements he has made, or that his campaign made use of, about his background. In that case, the issue is not about the views or sins of his parents, but about his own less than candid behavior. Has he lied to the public about himself? Has he fabricated elements of his background in order to garner sympathy and support? Do these lies have a bearing on the Constitutional issue? Whether they do or not, sustained, conscious and orchestrated deception must have a definite bearing on the public’s appraisal of his character, his trustworthiness and therefore his suitability for the nation’s highest office of trust. If the election campaign he conducted was based on fictions and lies, was the outcome a valid reflection of the public’s will, or a manipulated result achieved by dint of fraud and deceit?

Though it’s generally considered bad form to explain a joke, I’ll take the risk of offering a reflection on Vice-President Biden’s telling joke about the birth certificate issue at the Gridiron dinner last weekend. “You know, I never realized just how much power Dick Cheny had until my first day on the job. I walked into my office, and you know how the outgoing president always leaves the incoming president a note in his desk?” he asked rhetorically. “I opened my drawer and Dick Cheney had left me Barack Obama’s birth certificate.” Now, on the surface this seems to be a joke about Dick Cheney’s ability to get what nobody else has access to. Not far from that surface, however, the joke is not about the power Cheney had, but about the power Biden would have if the full birth certificate were in his possession. It’s an aging maxim in this information age that ‘information is power.’ In this case, the information Obama desperately seeks to conceal represents power over him and therefore over the United States of America. Here’s the question: Who has that power? Biden may joke about it. I somehow doubt that Obama is laughing. And neither should we.
