>Also, in the US, there is the presumption of innocence until proven guilty in a court of law.

Then there’s no problem whatsoever with me going out, saying I’m a doctor, and performing medical operations... until a court of law finds me guilty of breaking some law?

>President Obama has not been charged or found guilty of the fraud claimed.

Wrong: He *HAS* been charged, but so far all the courts seem to shrug off the charges with the “lack of standing excuse.”

>That poor excuse for an officer has broken the law no matter how you read it.

So, is requesting the supreme law of the land be kept unimpeachable, and ensuring that what you are sworn to protect is not callously disregarded illegal?

>He has declared himself judge and jury over the eligibility of the President, found him guilty, and refused lawfull orders by other senior commisioned officers over an order that Obama never even saw...

Irrelevant. If a Captain of a navel vessel is responsible for the actions of all of his crew, even during shore leave, then how can the “Captain of the Country” not be responsible for the actions of his “duly appointed officers”?

>You are arguing for anarchy rules.

No, by disregarding the supreme law of the land’s authority and jurisdiction you are arguing for nothing less than tyranny.

>That is not a precident you want, unless you wish for a military dictatorship...

Precedent and case law are a repugnant evil, A CANCER on our country’s legal system; it is nothing less than the judicial equivalent of the children’s game ‘telephone!’! It elevates what some judge says the law says to a position HIGHER than the law itself: for proof, note that the Supreme Court has ruled that the prohibition against ex post facto laws or bills of attainder apply ONLY TO CRIMINAL LAW. However, given that retroactive civil tax laws can, and ARE, punished criminally they become in effect RETROACTIVE CRIMINAL LAWS.

I spit on “precedent”.

To make the analogy complete, the fake doctor would have been licensed by the medical board under their power and discretion to approve him for practicing medicine. Congress has approved the president as being qualified. There is no other higher power that can override them except the voters.

By what authority?
