OK, I confess, the title is a bit misleading.
It should read Obama And His Lack Of A Birth Certificate Is About To Make History.
Yesterday, World Net Daily broke the story of Army Major Stefan Cook, who argued that he should not have to deploy to Afghanistan because President Obama has not proven that he is a natural-born citizen, therefore he is unable to serve as Commander-In-Chief.
This is something that will receive little, if any, coverage from the mainstream media.
However, the fact that the U.S. Army revoked the orders of a soldier about to be sent overseas based wholly upon such a claim is unprecedented.
This controversy over Obamas failure to produce a valid birth certificate has been an ongoing saga.
And all calls for him to do so have either been belittled or ignored by the White House. Which may lead some folks to suspect that the reason he doesnt simply produce the blasted thing and put this story to rest once and for all is because he doesnt have one!
About the only attention we have seen regarding this issue was the presentation of a Certificate Of Live Birth supposedly issued by the State of Hawaii.
This proves less than nothing, as first, to look at it you would think that a 12-year old made it on their home computer, and secondly is the fact that a child does not have to be born in Hawaii in order for the state to issue such a document to the childs parents.
Even if this document is legitimate, it is a far cry from an actual birth certificate, and it surely is not proof of where Obama was actually born.
However , there are literally thousands of articles and opinions floating around about Obamas birth certificate, or lack therof, and I dont want to bore you with re-visiting the same stories.
Rather, I would like to expound on my claim that Obamas lack of a birth certificate will make history. Consider the following:
If indeed it is proven that Obama is not a natural born U.S. citizen, and therefore is unable to serve as President, he will not be remembered as Americas first black President, rather history will remember him as the man who was the cause of the biggest Constitutional crisis this country has ever seen!
The question will be raised of what will happen to other troops deployed by Obama, and the troops already serving under orders from an ineligible commander in chief.
Every piece of legislation that Obama has signed since taking office would now be considered under law to be null and void.
Imagine what this would mean to the stock market, financial institutions, the auto industry, as well as every other facet of the American economy.
Not to mention, the people who already accuse the presidents critics of being racists will no doubt try to use this as their proof and stoke racial tensions to the point of riot.
Every appointment he has made, regardless if it was an appointment as a Czar, or a Cabinet-level position, would have to be overturned, and it would become the duty of the Vice-President to re-fill those positions.
Which leads to perhaps the most intriguing scenario of all.
The Constitution states that if the President is unable to serve, the Vice-President shall assume the duties of the office.
However, if the man who chose you to be his running mate was found to have been elected to the office in violation of Constitutional law, where does that leave you Mr. Biden?
After all, we (well, some of you poor misguided individuals) voted for the two of you as a team running on the same ticket.
So if it is found that the man who picked you to be his running mate did so in direct violation of federal law, doesnt it follow that you were also elected to the Vice-Presidency under false pretenses?
Barack Obama. CHANGE YOU CAN BELIEVE IN!
When the U.S. military accepts the claim of a soldier that the man posing as Commander-In-Chief has failed to produce his eligibility to hold that title, we may be on the verge of seeing change beyond belief.
All the Dems & RINO’s know who Hussein is. All should be put in jail when this comes to a head. Anyone aiding and abetting should be put in jail

AGREED. They KNEW.
The way I heard it was the 'rat Congress had set out to pre-empt citizenship problems for Obama by leveraging off the fact that McLame's birth history could be made to look suspect. In what was hoped to be a quick sleight of hand, both 0bama and McLame were to be declared eligible via Congressional vetting (whatever extra-Constitutional imprimatur and halo that would lend the candidates). McLame's case was able to be dealt with quickly and but for some reason, Zero's ran aground and hit roadblocks, such that some people were skeerd to put their name to it. The case for Zero fell apart, and the Left buried it, hoping no one would notice.
...and I'm pretty sure it didn't happen during the Reagan administration...

If it all came down in 2011, yeah, a (hopefully) Republican Senate could hold it up. But before that? A Democrat Senate would most certainly approve of Hillary. Gives them the first WOMAN Vice-President (and they are all about “history”). Plus, there’s a boatload of Clintonistas already in place in the West Wing.
With Boy King discredited, the stupid Dems would most naturally turn to their previous Wonder Boy and Wife.
Is that where all that “Jim Thompson” stuff is coming from? I missed it here on the threads. The dolts at MSDNC identified our Fearless Jim-Rob as Jim THOMPSON?
Great icon! I am SO stealing that!
Senate is not involved. If it came down to congress voting for the new President, its in the house of representatives, and its one vote for every state.
I do believe there are more GOP states than Dim states. Yea, exactly.

Consider this possibility: to the extent that statement is true Os handlers would not want to risk their gains, they will cause him to resign prior to the commencement of impeachment.
Once could throw in the need to avoid race riots as well, but the handlers will regard that as only necessary to save a faltering economy. O will leave office for the good of the entire nation and make every effort to placate his constituency and avoid riots.
Biden will legitimately assume the office and, as Right Cal Gal indicates, the handlers will encourage him to select Hillary as his VP. Too many variables at this point to accurately predict the outcome.
It is obvious to many that we do not escape this threat to our nation until we change the composition of the Congress. Until then, they have a game plan and the votes, and we can only try to catch up.
The time to guard against corruption and tyranny is before they shall have gotten hold of us. - Thomas Jefferson.
I was referring to Biden’s assuming the Presidency and his appointment of a Vice President. If both Obama and Biden are declared inelligible, then I have no idea what we’d do.
But Boy King should be tossed in effin’ jail for election fraud.
The problem there is- Arnold Schwarzegger can then claim precedent has been set and run for President too. If we don't deny Obama if he is not natural born why deny the Austrian?
If it is demonstrated that Obama is not natural born, me must be removed. The man would have knowingly and willfully defrauded his way into the office. The repurcussions for not removing him would be unacceptable.
For some reason I thought that Cook was included in the case before Carter. Evidently he is not.
“Ya can’t tell the players without a scorecard!”
If you go by the Constitution the Biden would be. The 25th Amendment: In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President. Obama is president. In the event of his removal from office, including for fraud and ineligibility, then Biden is president. Period. McCain had his chance, he blew his chance, there is no way that he could ever be president based on the 2008 results.

This soldier may turn out to be THE hero of the year for us!
