As long as you include the fact that the cop won a widely publicized election and that he’s accepted by the public at large as being the Chief of police and has all of the power that comes with that, then your analogy’s fine with me freak. :)

See, this is the point that guys like you don't get: the "natural born citizen" requirement is not just some nit-picky thing; it's there for a reason. It is there to avoid having someone in the highest US office who may have divided loyalties, because such a man would use the power of the office to benefit another country rather than the US, and perhaps even at the expense of the US. If Obama is not, in fact, natural born, then he was presented for election fraudulently, and all those who voted for him (excepting those who hate the US and would like to have Putin running the country) would have been duped into believing they were voting for an American who would truly act in the best interests of the country (from their perspective) rather than a man with foreign loyalties who uses the presidency to benefit other countries. In such a case, all acts done by Obama would necessarily be invalidated, not because of a legal loophole, but because he would not be constitutionally assumed to be acting in the best interest of the USA and Americans, and thus his actions could not be allowed to stand.

In my analogy with the marauding chief of police, it would be as if a felon or an illegal alien were placed in the position. Such a person would be assumed not to have respect for the law, and could therefore not be reasonably expected to follow it. Therefore, all of his actions would be suspect. The birthers in my example would be the ones saying, "Hey, I think this guy was in prison for murder, and was elected/appointed through fraud, and that would explain his violating of the law while searching our house and taking our stuff." It would be easier, then, to have the false police chief ousted than it would be to undo all of his damage under the assumption that his actions were legal. You could spend thousands of dollars in legal fees to fight his actions in court and prove your innocence, or you could show that he isn't qualified to be a trusted officer of the law and get the charges dropped and your stuff back TOMORROW.

Heysean claims he’s been on FR for seven years, has a signup date of a bit more than 2 years ago, and has less than a page and half of comments.

If you scan through his comments, his actual POV becomes crystal clear.

A couple of neat points:

1. He thinks 0bama care isn’t “that good”, it’s watered down so it won’t be very popular, doesn’t do much for the little people.

hahaha

2. People shouldn’t lump the small minority of jihad loving Moslems in with the rest of them who are normal people that don’t like jihad.

He’s a troll.
