An interesting reason for the "natural born" provision of the U.S. Constitution is that the founders thought it might be important for the sitting president to understand and defend the basic principles of American freedom. The universal health care push illustrates the far left's ignorance of our constitutional system better than anything imaginable. The President and every one of the ultra lefties in Congress may as well have been born in the former Soviet Union and dandled on the knee of Joseph Stalin. Their poison Ivy League educations have so indoctrinated their minds that, not only do they sing from the same sheet, but they fail to appreciate the harm they wish to inflict upon the country.
That opening paragraph might be a little hard, but when Barack Obama starts using the "God card," in his emotive sales pitch for "health care reform," the "debate" approaches a no-holds-barred level. The tactics are especially offensive coming from a man with 20 years of training from the best in how to comingle God and social justice doctrine.
After the American people started acting up, demanding that their representatives slow down and actually read the thousand pages of bureaucracy-creating legislation, they were dismissed as angry mobs. When that didn't work, the liberal Democrats and their accomplices in the media tried playing the race card. And recently, Mr. Obama has cranked up the morality and religious rhetoric in a final effort to sell government health care to an unbelieving public.
President Obama now presents his health care "reform" arguments in the either-or, black-or-white syllogisms of which liberal intellectuals routinely accuse conservatives. "These struggles always boil down to a contest between hope and fear," claimed Obama on Aug. 19 in a conference call sponsored by 40 Days for Health Reform, a coalition of the religious left. The New York Times notes that, "The president also called on people of faith to spread the facts and speak the truth' about health care reform."
"We are God's partners in matters of life and death," preached Obama during another conference call with about 1,000 rabbis from across the country. To borrow from George Bush, I guess you're either with us or against us in the fight for government health care. And, apparently God is more than just on Obama's side -- He is Obama's partner.
In his efforts to summons the faithful to promote ObamaCare, Mr. Obama challenged the alleged
fabrications that have been put out there [like that of the inevitability of rationed government care] in order to discourage people from meeting what I consider to be a core ethical and moral obligation. And that is that we look out for one another, that I am my brother's keeper and my sister's keeper, and that the wealthiest nation on earth right now, we are neglecting to live up to that call.
When Barack Obama was making millions from autobiographical book sales his younger brother, George Obama, was living in abject poverty in a tiny hovel in Kenya. Certainly, George might have wished a time or two for his older brother to be his keeper. Many liberals and most Marxists, unfortunately for George, are only generous with taxpayer money, not their own.
I prayed to God that He would handle Obama in His own way.
Obama embracing God in his arguments just reminds everyone of his association with Rev. Wright. Good! He might as well just hang a sign under his neck that says-âI’m a Godless hypocrite.â
I believe it is Jesus who established God’s kingdom on earth - I doubt he cares very much for Obama’s intervention into His affairs.

"Like allah, I have no birth certificate."
If Obama ever comes to grasp that, we might survive yet.
What's no one has picked up on out this statement is the 'right now'. Obama has plans to end this stain on America's honor. If Obama is successful, American will no longer be the wealthiest nation on earth. That's the plan folks, spread the wealth around. $2 billion to George Soros to drill for oil off the coast of Brazil and shut down American coal mines. That's just one step in this plan.
And others might ask, “why doesn’t he say ‘Allah?’”
