Up until last year, I used to laugh at those who subscribed to conspiracy theories, but now I've changed my tune.

Who the #^$@ has "standing"? Doesn't the Constitution matter any more? The truth only matters if it's a benefit to the Rats politically. If truth doesn't benefit them or poses a risk to their stranglehold on power, then you have no "standing." Pathetic!

If ever any individual citizen was to be determined to have legal standing in challenging Barack Obama’s eligibility, it would most likely need to be John Sidney McCain, the individual who was most directly harmed by Obama’s popular vote and electoral college vote victories.

Actually there is a legal catch-22 in the legal standing issues. It is most often strict constructionist-traditionalist-conservative judges who are very picky about legal standing to sue because it is usually liberals filing frivolous lawsuits over every single issue under the sun hoping that activist judges will overstep their authority.
Conservative judges and the conservative US Supreme Court justices have refused to wade in to the Obama eligibility controversy because of separation of powers issues. It is the legislative branch’s responsibility and the states’ responsibility to determine eligibility not the courts’.
