A great idea. Beck does not pretend to be an authority on anything. More power to him. Host a debate. The Beck frontispiece and closing graphic have pictures of the founders. Have these founders expound on citizenship. Argue with Story, Hamilton, Jay, Washington, Kent, Marshall, Waite.

A panel could wear masks, and be prepared with the words of a justice. Have Ann Coulter argue for Obama, against all the founders. Boy would that get ratings, but might be uncomfortable for Ann, whom I generally respect. I'll bet there are many in academia and the profession sitting on the sidelines who now, seeing the Obama credit line dwindle, might lend their knowledge and reputations to support the Constitution.

Instead of “Where is the birth certificate” the road signs should have read “Born in the country to parents who are its citizens?”

The Kerchner case is wending its way toward the supreme court. The Chrysler Dealer cases have been initiated. To preserve our freedoms, the public should understand the issues being raised. They are obscure, but as we see the concrete danger of a U.S. Army officer whose allegiance was never consistent with our constitutional protections, a Muslim before a citizen, as Obama said of himself in his first book, more citizens are likely to understand why Washington and Jay decided to require natural born citizenship as a qualification to being president.

We have all seen the travesty of auto dealer's survival becoming dependent upon their political contributions. Those cases are now being prosecuted, by Donofrio and Pidgeon. That is connected to the illegitimacy of Obama’s presidency because without respect for adherence to the constitution, those cases will be settled the Chicago way, or the Soros way.

Appuzo, arguing for the constitution, a small time patriot, would fit the Beck appeal to traditional values. I think Appuzo could handle a slick government attorney because he has truth on his side, is seasoned enough to resist the distractions, and, unlike many attorneys, has had the chance to become really expert. You know Anita Dunn's husband has a world-class team following the Kerchner/Apuzzo case.

Have Appuzo or Donofrio defend the founders. It might not be a funny show, but Beck presented a serious special on eugenics. How about a serious special on citizenship? Goodness know, it is a serious issue.

I fully agree that the concealment of all legal documents is insufferable. But there don't appear to be statutes - yet - requiring that we know more than the media wanted to present about a presidential candidate. Only two states even required a written certification by the party of a candidate's eligibility, and that battle appears stymied. So let's be disciplined and focus on what we know, because the candidate told us, about Obama’s qualifications. A British Kenyan father absolutely disqualifies Obama from being president. His authority is moot.

Since the teleprompter tells Obama what to say, I think debating the teleprompter would be a great site gag and you could have a George Soros puppeteer typing responses frantically behing the curtain (ala Wizard of Oz).
