And it’s maddening that there is no way to get a read out of the Court as to what the proper way IS to get a redress of this grievance. It’s like the blindfolded target throw at the carnival. One can scarcely ridicule the failures if the actual problem is the nine headed legal sphynx that sits in Washington.
Gary Kreep is the attorney here. Philip Berg, Hillary’s lawyer, was helping him out at the 9th Circuit Case. Maybe Hillary is behind this move as well. I don’t care, so long as the SOB, and I mean that literally, is removed from the White House by EOY.
I don’t get the lack of standing either. Every citizen and especially every taxpayer ought to have standing on this.
That's the same problem that I have with this. This is a fundamental Constitutional issue and, IMO, ANY American citizen should have "standing". This is a big problem.
In all honesty, one Congressman/Senator willing to potentially sacrifice his job could end this. Get on TV every chance and ‘create’ the controversy. You know they would slam him non stop...but that would cause THE PEOPLE to take it seriously.
“I’m willing to forfeit my job if that’s what it takes because my country and it’s people are more important than “ME”. And they are more important than a potentially ineligible President. WE, and history, must know the truth.”
If a person in that position has no standing, we have no country.
PLEASE! Are you implying you don't think there was/ and is an active coverup?
Are you also wondering whether there is an actual coverup in FAST AND FURIOUS (GUNRUNNER)?
Are you waiting for the MSM to tell you the TRUTH?
The REPUBS are playing the game such that this is NOT settled by the courts, they want Americans to remove this clown from office. If the IMPEACHMENT MOVE is played, they fear that the DEMS will play Bill Clinton's "I WAS A VICTIM" counter move
“what really bothers me about this whole thing, is that apparently NO ONE has “standing” to do anything about this subject, which is almost as alarming to me as an actual coverup.”
Yes, this issue has risen to near the top for me when it comes to Obama. Who DOES have standing? As far as I can tell no one does. No Person, No Organization, not even G*D Almighty seems to have standing.
And if all that is true... This is not a representative republic as the founders gave us. This is a serial Monarchy where we choose our monarch every four years. That is until the latest one decides he REALLY likes the job and wants to make it permanent.
McCain would, since he can claim damages if Obama is actually ineligible. But that's about it.
You have to understand that ALL politicians have “baggage” in their backgrounds.
No politician is going to stand up for any citizen and take the chance that their opposition is going to expose it. Believe me, the Ministry of Propaganda knows where the skeletons are in each (and every) politician’s closet.
There’s your answer.
Congress has always had the power to investigate the President and remove him from office via impeachment. Federal courts have historically refused to get involved in issues that the Constitution leaves to the elected branches.
That being said, every state has a procedure in its election laws where a candidate on the ballot can challenge the eligibility of another candidate. No candidate invoked any of these laws in 2008; they can be invoked by any candidate in 2012, although most states have a very narrow window in which such challenges can be filed.
