D.C. court case demands Obama explain eligibility (Britain, Kenya, Indonesia)

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.

...the US Supreme Court refused to hear a similar case in Dec 2008.
And you believe that not hearing a case is making a ruling on a case, right?

It was reviewed by 9 Justices. If 4 thought it had merit, they would hear the case. They did not.

Thus, at least 6 Justices thought the case was without merit.

There is a COLB. If accurate - and Hawaii officials have said it is - then it is all that is required for a passport. That is what I used (from Minnesota) to get an official passport (for government travel), and it is what my daughter used (from New Mexico) to get a regular passport.

If someone has evidence that it is a forgery, they are welcome to present it. Complaining that it is a jpeg and that a paper document hasn’t been mailed to every household in the USA won’t cut it...

When a bigamist marries a second or following wife, the whole US Supreme Court and every honest man and woman in the county might be witnesses and sign the certificate, and the the clerk of the country issues a license.

Nevertheless for ALL that procedure and valid witnessing by reliable witnesses the marriage is completely null, forever.

This is that same as the case a person not eligible to hold the office being sworn in after following all electoral procedures.

Nothing you said answers my question...
And you believe that not hearing a case is making a ruling on a case, right?

You were so sure about it yesterday...
By refusing to take a case of this importance - asking if the newly elected President is qualified to take office the following month - they HAVE ruled!

$10 or so it ALL it costs to have Hawaii issue a valid COLB, if there really is one, for the Usurper. There is simply NO SANE REASON, besides a cover-up of some fraudulent or questionable circumstance of the order of fraud, for that to have failed to have happened. That is, the certificate thus far presented was presented only to two wet-behind the ears liberal arts degree young people working at a politically partisan organization — hardly an HONEST release or professional vetting.

Don't break out the champaign yet. All he did was render the original MTD moot when Orly amended her complaint.

And are you such a rube to think that ANY court BUT the US Supreme Court would even attempt to navigate through the mucky swamp of Political Question to rule in a manner that would possibly remove a sitting president?

Furthermore ... you've been watching Obama like the rest of America for the last two years. Has he shown ANY inkling about being HONEST about ANYTHING, much less his birth records?


Eventually you'll come to the realization that — just like everything else he says — ALL of Obama's self-proclaimed "truths" are actually LIES, in one way, shape or form. A liar lies ... always.

Keep digging, Drew ... we all know what awaits you at the end of your journey.

The definition of "natural born citizen" is provided in very clear text in the background documents of the Founders. It is clearly one born of two American citizens.


Well said. You've obviously read Vattel's "Law of Nations" !

Apparently, you don’t know the difference between a citizen and a natural born citizen, which is a requirement to be president.

I don’t LIKE it either, but that won’t change how courts handle it.

So much obfuscation in such a short post. Why post about something where you haven't bothered to inform yourself?

If you've missed the detailed posts here on FR that have present evidence and explanation of forgery, then you just haven't been paying attention.

I do not believe that any Hawaiian officials have said that any of the documents represented as an Obama COLB are "accurate." What they have said is that they have seen Obama's birth certificate, or that they have it on file, neither of which is quite the same thing. Maybe you can come up with a link to some article with quotation marks from some such official to support your assertion?

As for complaining that it's just a jpeg image, I will continue to do that until and unless I can obtain my own certified copy (or really some others whose document analysis I would trust obtain such copies). All Obama has to do is authorize the State of Hawaii to sell a certified copy to anyone willing to pay whatever fee is required. They would sell about five of them. We would all see the analysis and that would be the end of it one way or the other. Tell me that if it were you, you would not make such an authorization.

As for passports, I do not know about diplomatic passports. You say your daughter obtained a regular passport. Did she really obtain one with a document that did not state where she was born and/or identify a disinterested witness (usually a doctor or a midwife) to the birth?

You can be born abroad and be an American citizen—I have a number of such friends. Also, as I understand it, your parents cannot renounce your citizenship for you—rather, you must do it yourself. I haven’t seen any evidence that Obama renounced his American citizenship.

I’m sure we can assume Obama is an American citizen. I doubt that he is a natural-born citizen, however. His refusal to release his documents and end the controversy means that either something is horribly wrong with his paper trail, or that his paper trail is okay and he’s just a pure 100% a**hole.

Plaintiffs raise nine issues, which we revise and restate as whether the trial court erred by granting the motion to dismiss under Ind. Trial Rule 12(B)(6).1 We affirm. 2
For anyone interested the rule reads
Ind. Trial Rule 12(B)(6) - Failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted, which shall include failure to name the real party in interest under Rule 17; (Parties plaintiff and defendant--Capacity)
Read the footnotes. I like 2.
2 The trial court also granted the Governor‟s motion to dismiss on the bases of mootness under Ind. Trial Rule 12(B)(1) and the equitable doctrine of laches. Because we find that Plaintiffs failed to state a claim upon which relief can be granted under T.R. 12(B)(6), we need not address the trial court‟s alternative grounds for dismissal.
Ind. Trial Rule 12(B)(1) - Lack of jurisdiction over the subject matter,

That's the nuts and bolts of it. Kicked out for not following procedure and lack of jurisdiction, not merit.

And in case you missed it...
15 We reiterate that we do not address the question of natural born citizen status for persons who became United States citizens at birth by virtue of being born of United States citizen parents, despite the fact that they were born abroad. That question was not properly presented to this court. Without addressing the question, however, we note that nothing in our opinion today should be understood to hold that being born within the fifty United States is the only way one can receive natural born citizen status.

I like this...
16 We note that President Obama is not the first U.S. President born of parents of differing citizenship.
That's got to hurt!
But they still think it's okay despite Chester A. Arthur's case because...
Although President Arthur‟s status as a natural born citizen was challenged in the 1880 Presidential Election on the grounds that he was born in Canada rather than Vermont, the argument was not made that because Arthur‟s father was an Irish citizen he was constitutionally ineligible to be President.
I guess you just have to ask the right questions.

A four month old WND article on the antics of Orly Taitz is news how?

...an official passport (for government travel)...
Well, now! Isn't that an interesting admission.
Was that during your active duty military service or after you retired?

By what warrant, sir, do you speak as an authority on what the courts shall decide?

Correct. They did NOT address the question of McCain’s eligibility. They did for Obama - and NOT on procedure.
