I don’t think there is anything stopping a court from sending a notice to Congress of facts that should be investigated. Congress would be under no obligation to do anything with it, but a court is not limited from doing that.
There were more than two elector college members that wanted to object, but I understand VP Cheney didn’t ask for objections like he was supposed to.
Congress is spineless. There was no one that wanted alienate a portion of their constituency by challenging Obama’s credentials. That’s why it’s important that congress and the states each put a process in place to verify the eligibility credentials. Because congress can not be relied on in the heat of the moment.
And that’s also why the courts should have at least reviewed the facts and not shirked their responsibility in this case. The courts can’t remove a sitting president. But a court could have ordered the records and determined the truth, and let the public and congress do with it what they wanted.
“When the Republican Governor of Hawaii, the Republican Attorney General of Hawaii and two appointees of the Republican Governor, the Registrar of Vital Records and the Director of the state Health Department all confirmed Obamas birth in Hawaii, the courts lost interest.”
But Jamese777 - they never confirmed his birth in Hawaii; they either confirmed he had a birth certificate OR vital records maintained at Hawaii’s DOH.
I did not know, until two weeks ago, that Fukino had told Butterdezillion that Hawaii accepts foreign birth certificates and maintains them in their DOH vaults as vital records. Fukino even sent Butterdezillion the papers to prove that Hawaii does that - now isn’t THAT interesting!
I can’t even begin how disgusted I am with the lack of integrity among our populace. There was an enormous number of people who voted for Obama based merely on the color of his skin, not on the content of his character.
Point of fact: Obama’s initial SSN (1979 and associated with both his name and address of record) was at Occidental College, and it began 999-XX-XXXX.
Now, this type of SSN prefix is reserved for students who are foreign nationals receiving Federal student aid.
If he is a foreign national, then he is guilty of serious crimes against the United States.
If he is a U.S. citizen, then he is guilty of defrading the United States.
In either case, he is a criminal and shouldn’t be President.
