WND Exclusive BORN IN THE USA? D.C. court case demands Obama explain eligibility Contends president's allegiance is to Britain, Kenya, Indonesia Posted: January 29, 2010 12:20 am Eastern By Bob Unruh © 2010 WorldNetDaily A prominent attorney who has shepherded a number of high-profile legal cases challenging Barack Obama'seligibility to be president has brought a "Quo Warranto" case to district court in Washington, D.C., alleging his allegiances have included Britain, Kenya and Indonesia. A Quo Warranto action, first recorded some 800 years ago, essentially is a demand to know by what authority a public figure is acting. The case, brought by California attorney Orly Taitz on behalf of herself, was assigned to Chief Judge Royce Lamberth. Taitz told WND that in a separate action she has filed a notice of appeal with the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals of the dismissal of a case she brought on behalf of Ambassador Alan Keyes and dozens of other individuals in California challenging Obama's eligibility. She previously attempted Quo Warranto cases on behalf of government officials, without response. This time she filed the action directly with the court on her own behalf. "The case revolves around the federal question of eligibility of the president under Quo Warranto," she wrote.

Reading the district attorney’s motion to dismiss, I am glad to see that the judge denied it.

No, the court granted the motion to dismiss.

"I can just see it now. The claim will be "Mr. Dunham was elected even though he wasn't eligible so I should be able to run for POTUS too. A precedent has been set and it must be followed."

That's been one of my points for a long time now. His precedent must not be allowed to stand for a full term. "Simply" voting him out, or getting states to require certified documentation (while needed), isn't enough. He completes the term and is voted out, he sets the precedent that someone born with foreign entanglements, (for example) born the subject to the crown of her majesty the Queen of England (regardless of place of birth) can become the U.S. POTUS and Commander in Chief of the armed forces.

ALL concerned about upholding the Constitution should be working to prevent that precedent from occurring, buy exposing the usurper....sooner rather than latter.

Outstanding analogy!

Maybe the two of you can help me. Just what law of the first Congress is being discussed here... From the text of S. RES. 511
...Whereas such limitations would be inconsistent with the purpose and intent of the `natural born Citizen' clause of the Constitution of the United States, as evidenced by the First Congress's own statute defining the term `natural born Citizen';
I'd like to know which law they're talking about and get the text of the law. I've looked at the Statutes at Large, 1789-1875 and don't find any laws that seem to cover this issue. Perhaps ya'll will help me out here and have better luck.
"

---------------------------------------------------------------

They are refering to the Naturalization Act of 1790, which states (in relavent part):

"that the children of citizens [plural] of the United States that might be born beyond the sea, or out of the limits of the United States, should be considered as natural-born citizens"
http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/historics/USSC_CR_0088_0162_ZO.html

Interestingly, that verbiage is part of the Minor v. Happersett SCOTUS decision from 1875.

That part of the 1790 Act (relevant parts of which, of course, were later repealed by the 1795 Act) sounds a bit like Senator McCain's "situation" (re: Senate non binding resolution 511) doesn't it?

The "first Congress" spanned sessions from March 4, 1789 until March 3, 1791.

"What is the remedy is if you’re right? Let Biden be president?????"

Since this challenge is completely uncharted waters, nobody really knows for certain, although he probably would be at least until something like a special election could be held.

I think there is no question that Pelosi would not be "in the running" as she certified Barry as being Constitutionally eligible...at least, on the one version of the DNC form she did.

However, if it is to be Biden (with HIS horrible ideology), at the VERY LEAST he would not be a USURPER of the office.

sorry, I re-read 117, your correct Ann Dunham Obama could not confer (not defer) citizenship to her son.
You are quite correct. Thank You for clearing it, sorry for being so dense understanding what you meant.

Biden is an American. We might have differences of philosophy. But he is first and foremost an American. (And he never wrote a term paper about Alinsky!)

Thank you butterdezillion for coming in on this. I quoted your past statements on this concerning the evidence that the COLB online was a fake. We went off on a rabbit trail about a supposed hoax on the fake COLB being admitted to. This was with Mik Taerg. Finally he admitted that this was a non-issue to him and all he really wanted to do was get at Lucas Smith. Thank you for all your work, slowly things are unravelling for Obama. He could not hide everything. So when we find things, they have to be fully documented, as things tend to disappear, as you know, and we are seeing daily.

I believe I read that since Biden did not run for President, and Obama was removed, not impeached, the right of succession does not apply. The Congress would appoint a temporary until new elections could be held. Now the congress COULD select Biden, but the right of succession would not apply. This is whats said about it:


The United States presidential line of succession defines who may become or act as President of the United States upon the incapacity, death, resignation, or removal from office (by impeachment and subsequent conviction) of a sitting president or a president-elect.

As many have said before, we have never dealt with removal of a president without impeachment. So the waters are muddy.

Last night.O’Reilly held up a copy of Obama’s birth announcement in the Hawaii paper as proof of O’s Hawaiian birth.

O'really? Neither newspaper lists his name so I'd like to know how O'BOR knows it's Hussein's.

Meet another doubter of his American citizenship. His mama couldn’t pass it to him and he’s yet to prove where he was born so no one knows.

I know I’m a real stick in the mud, but a creeping coup by a non-natural born citizen with complicity by all levels of gov plus the MSM just doesn’t hit me in the funny bone.
