President Barack Obama wants former chief of staff Rahm Emanuel to stay on the Chicago mayoral ballot, a top presidential confidante said Tuesday.
“I think that [Obama] believes that [Emanuel] is eligible, and that he believes that Rahm will pursue his appeal in the courts,” said Valerie Jarrett, a senior adviser to Obama and fellow Chicagoan, on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”
As the president said when Emanuel left the White House last fall, Obama still “thinks Rahm will make a terrific mayor,” Jarrett said.
An appellate court ordered Monday that Emanuel’s name be removed from the ballot because he did not meet the one-year residency requirement to be eligible for the Feb. 22 general election. The debate over Emanuel’s eligibility hinges on the nearly two years Emanuel spent working in the Obama White House and the fact that he rented out his Chicago house.

If Rahm Emanuel files an amended tax return that changes his former claim of non-residency and then pays the taxes as a resident, will he then be eligible for mayor?
And will it go down this way?
The laws say what Obama says they say, nothing more, nothing less, d*mn it!
I hope the Appeals Court backs up the Appellate Court Judge’s ruling. It would be like a flipped finger to the SOBama.
GUARANTEE.
In all of earthly reality you are probably right but not if we Christians bring down the power of The LORD by our faithful (believing) prayers. The gates of hell cannot prevail against God's Church. Battles are won in the Spirit of God for we do not fight against flesh and blood. The sooner Christians start actually believing this and not be as the spies that said the giants were too big to fight and unbelieving they gave up but rather be like Caleb and Joshua who understood that no battle is too for The LORD the sooner victories will mount up.
These people mock God and it is time to rise up as David and not let them. If we could see our victory in terms of man and what would happen without the intervention of God then faith would not be required. We should rise up and glory in the opportunity for the power of God and His intervention and His glory to be manifestoed in the affairs of man.
EXACTLY.
The Basta*ds.
How I do hate this socialist government, and this socialist, crooked, entitlement-SOAKED town, “Chicago is.”
As with the cops, firefighters and businesses who are bailing out of this state as fast as they can, we're following suit. Crime is out of hand, folks are being beaten up/attacked and robbed by groups of “wilding” black thugs who don't fear the police, on Michigan Avenue, State Street, etc, and in malls. These street thugs feel they have Obama/Holder's OK to “get whitey/whoever”, and Chicago socialist politics makes sure that they can.
The south and west side neighborhoods are hell holes made up of generational welfare leaches,...people who CHOOSE to live the thug life, birth babies for the welfare they can collect per kid, live totally immoral, aimless lives and drag down the culture, all by choice, while demanding “give us more!” This thug element is branching out to low crime areas, knowing full well police protection to these low crime areas has been pulled and re-directed to high crime areas (this is how the Chicago Police administration handles police officer shortages)...leaving low crime areas open to the thugs to ply their trade. Police are not allowed to do their jobs (the Mare of Chicago does not want to step on the revruns the “greedy/corrupt, power-hungry good men and women of the cloth”, who keep their flock perpetually stupid and beholden to them in exchange for the free stuff), and the greedy crooked aldermen/women who also tend to this same flock of thieves with their hands out for the free stuff, in exchange for the socialist/democratic votes.
And, in the meantime, Chicago swirls further down the drain.
PS to all Chicago Police and firefighters and sucker citizens who refuse to see the light, keep on votin’ socialist/democratic/progressive, and perpetuate the ugly cycle of socialism, cronyism and doom for the city of Chicago, and the state of Illinois. The producers, tax-payers, people who want to live and work in civilized, law-abiding, safe communities, are bailing out of this city, state. To all you fools who kiss the socialist/democratic azz with your votes, are you satisfied with the results???

Now isn't that special.
Tell ya what Barry. Then just declare Chicago a 'national emergency area', and issue an edict from your &%$#_*#%*ing THRONE! that Rahm WILL BE mayor.
Who needs that whole election thing anyway. It's so cumbersome, time consuming and the voters are stupid idiots anyway.
