Troll noob.
You sound like you could be a follower of Mau Zedong. If you were the judge you wouldn’t jail Lakin nor give him a trial; you would call him insane and be done with him. That’s how Islamists in Afghanistan wormed their way out of executing the Muslim who converted to Christianity, as sharia (the top law, over any Constitution) demands. They said he would have to be crazy to convert from Islam so they wouldn’t execute him because he is insane. It’s circular logic. No True Scotsman. No sane person would ever say that Obama is ineligible, therefore we dismiss the case of anybody who claims it because we already know they MUST just be insane... It says that any evidence is “irrelevant”. I believe in Iran they call it “judge’s knowledge”. It flies in the face of everything about the Federal Rules of Evidence, which is why red-blooded Americans still smell the stink no matter what legal dancing and prancing the lawyers do with their naked emperor.
Thanks for showing your true colors. No need to respond to you any more.
Who, under the Constitution, is empowered to decide factual, legal and constitutional issues concerning the qualifications of candidates?
That's the important question. This fellow's case has demonstrated only that the federal executive and judicial branches are unwilling to decide that a lieutenant colonel has been empowered to decide in even a preliminary way the factual, legal or constitutional issues concerning Obama's qualifications to be president. Those two branches of government have taken the position that this lieutenant colonel exceeded his authority and that he had no right to impede the orderly operation of the military while he litigates and debates his theories of our constitution.
That really shouldn't be too hard for you to accept, but accept it or not, that is the simple reality of this case.
