Sheriff Joe challenges eligibility in Florida

Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his Cold Case Posse lead investigator have submitted sworn affidavits in a Florida case challenging President Obama’s eligibility for the election ballot of the crucial swing-state that decided the 2000 presidential election.

Significantly, Judge Terry Lewis in Leon County – known for his rulings in the Bush v. Gore case at the center of the 2000 contested election – has confronted the White House for failing to support its claim that the term “natural born citizen” in the U.S. Constitution means something other than the offspring of two American citizens.

Lewis has scheduled a hearing for Monday at 9 a.m. at the Leon County Courthouse in Tallahassee to hear the Obama team’s motion to dismiss the case and determine whether it should go forward with discovery.

Affidavits from Arpaio, Cold Case Posse lead investigator Mike Zullo and WND author and senior reporter Jerome Corsi have been filed ahead of the hearing. The briefs support the complaint’s charge that there is evidence Obama is constitutionally ineligible for the White House and, therefore, original documentation is needed to determine whether he should be on the ballot.

Attorney Larry Klayman, founder of the Washington, D.C., watchdogs Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch, is representing a registered member of the Democratic Party, Michael Voeltz, who has filed the complaint as a Florida voter. Klayman’s work is supported by the non-profit ConstitutionActionFund.org.

Klayman told WND today that unlike other Obama eligibility cases, this case “likely will go the distance” because of the strength of Florida law, which provides voters with the right to challenge a candidate’s eligibility.

“The judge must make a decision based on eligibility,” Klayman explained. “He can’t sidestep it as judges in other states have attempted to do.”

Should be interesting to see how TSA handles Sheriff Joe if he has to fly to Florida.

it appears this case does not hinge on a dispute of where he was born, but rather on the legal definition of the term “Natural Born Citizen”

MONEY quote here, etcb. Barack Obama's alleged birth certificate already shows that he's not eligible to be President. Where he was born is immaterial.

The fact that his father was a British national and his mother was a minor ALREADY PROVES he's not eligible, and this is by his own admission. Regardless as to where he was actually pushed out, he's not eligible to be the President of the United States!

This DOES bring about a huge Constitutional crisis, as it makes any laws signed by him, treaties, legal anything while he was President null and void.

I contend this has been his intention the entire time. Even if they pursue after he's out of the WH, it will require that all laws passed by his signature be reviewed and forced through the Legislative branch for a second look and passage. That'll never happen, esp. with Obamacare.
