President Obama Needs to Prove His Constitutional Eligibility to Be Commander-in-Chief

A Narobi newspaper in 2006 said Obama was Kenyan born as have many other African newspaper articles over the years, and Obama hides his birth certificate spending millions of dollars in the process. The obvious conclusion is that Obama is foreign born.

And CBS had a whole story on how George Bush didn't show up for his Air Guard duties. The obvious conclusion is that George Bush was a deserter.

Hey Axelrod the DU is the other way. Waaaay down,don't let the door hit you in the ass.

He has been ordered to deploy to Afghanistan. What is illegal about that order?

---

On the surface, there is nothing illegal about the order. it’s a routine deployment order.

But and it’s a huge BUT, if the President himself as Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States is in that position fraudulently then any and all orders (and Laws) initiated from his general orders to the Military need to questioned.

Clear up the question of his legality then all of this goes away. A bunch of people have egg and worse on their faces if he is proven to be Legitimate. So be it.

But if Obama is not in his position legitimately well then there is worse on his face than egg. EVERY action taken by him and in his name as CinC in his presidency will be scrutinized and have court challenge after court challenge.

But enough of that, the LtC feels that he is duty bound to question his orders. It is not for you or I to second guess him. Now it is up to the procedures in the UCMJ and his chain of command.

I believe that it is long past time to get this point cleared up.

“Obama is a globalist and is intent on destroying America as we know it. He tells us that every day in many ways. He doesn’t salute the flag or anthem most of the time. “

Obama has done nothing but earn the contempt of the American people. If he is legit, let him prove it. Personally, I believe he has committed multiple felonies as a college student, and this is why 7 years of college has been wiped clean.

“Even his own lawyers admitted there was something “embarrassing” “

Yes. Multiple idedtity theft, and student loan fraud tends to embarrass one,. ;-)

[rodguy911]

Exactly, this guy is easy to figure. Just monitor what he does not what his teleprompter says.

This Colonel needs to be court marshaled.

I agree, but for a different reason. If he is court marshaled, the government would have to produce Obama's birth certificate proving he is a natural born citizen. Can't be guilty of disobeying a lawful order if the issuer has not costitutional right to hold his position.

[stephenjohnbanker]

Obama is a life long con man and a fraud. He wouldn’t survive without a teleprompter, as he is at best, of average intelligence. When he speaks off the cuff, he is a stuttering stammering jackass, about on a par with a none- too- bright high school student.

A very well written piece by LTC Lakin. God bless him and his family.

I agree with you. I would add one more line: Waste of a career.

“Really?”

Yes, of course for me that was 46 years ago...

[verity]

Are you conservative or senile? lol

[Uncle Chip]

Until an original birth certificate is brought forward that will validate the Commander-in-Chief's constitutional eligibility and put to rest the reasonable questions surrounding it, I cannot in good conscience obey any of my military orders. Unless it is established (sufficient proof that should be easily within the president's power to provide) that he is constitutionally eligible to serve as president and Commander-in-Chief, I and all other military officers are at risk of following illegal orders.

Doctor Lakin -- I and all Constitutionalists applaud you for your stand.

On the surface, there is nothing illegal about the order. it’s a routine deployment order.

So what gives him the responsibility to question it? Apparently not only that order but every order given to him by every superior in his chain of command? When I took my oath as an officer many years ago I swore to support and defend the Constitution. I did not swear to support and defend and interpret the Constitution, that last part is the responsibility of others. And I also swore that I would well and faithfully discharge the office I was about to enter. I don't see how anyone can consider refusing to obey the lawful order of one's commanding officer is doing that.

If he is court marshaled, the government would have to produce Obama's birth certificate proving he is a natural born citizen. Can't be guilty of disobeying a lawful order if the issuer has not costitutional right to hold his position.

Except he's going to be court martialed for missing movement and refusing to obey the order of his direct superior or other people in his chain of command. Obama will never even enter in to it.
