>>>The judge, like many, may consider obama’s election much more likely now and may have simply looked for the noble way to bow out.

His opinion was not a noble way to bow out. He chose sides
and made it clear that he is a tool by suggesting that a private citizen has no standing in who is elected POTUS.

The “noble” way to bow out would have been a simple admission of the truth. This belongs in a higher court based on the lack of evidence.

Yep, I remember. I wasn’t refering to the final election I was refering to the Primaries, ALL of his competition got eliminated, including the INCUMBENT, on technicalities in the Petition signatures required to RUN in the primaries. It was Chicago Politics at its finest.

yeah, i figured i would get some replies over the use of ‘noble,’ which, if edit were available, I would have changed once I read the posted reply.

Should read “looked for the most pragmatic way to bow out.’”

more accurate?

Actually, I don’t think it is unprecedented.

There are rumors that Arnold Schwarzenegger has a VISA violation:

And Senator Bob Menendez tells conflicting stories about when he actually ‘escaped’ Castro’s regime.

Maybe this is why so many support Amnesty. We have politicians that need to get in line for citizenship.

Technically you are not voting for Obama but for electors who say they will vote for Obama but who can vote for any eligible candidate.

Jefferson and Adams had nothing to do with writing the Constitution. Interestingly it is written to allow the Presidency of Alexander Hamilton who was not born in the colonies.

I understand your original point, but it doesn’t change my view of the judge.

I don’t see very much difference in the terminology.
I listened to Berg on Savage Nation. His position didn’t sound fringe or meaningless to me.

Is that what our justice system is about?... finding the most pragmatic way of passing the buck?

Our court system is OVERLOADED because lower courts dont have the BALLS to live up to their oath of defending the constitution! Consider all of the valid appeals to SCOTUS that will never see the light of day because lower court judges are either YELLOW or CORRUPT!

Pragmatic? isn’t that kind of like calling a gaff a rhetorical flourish? (not to insult)

If you go back to the Federalist you will find that the last thing the Founders wanted were political parties, they called them “factions”, which were deadly to a Republic.

That lasted until Jefferson and Madison founded the Democrat-Republican party to thwart Hamilton around 1790. It was born in corruption, deceit, lies through media and used dirty tricks as ably as its current descendent.

You asked about “candidates” not “officials”. Candidates indeed do NOT work for us.

i think, to my jaded mind, pragmatic is a government judicial employee deciding they really want out of this one, and thus letting the probable winner of the election, in their opinion (?), write their opinion, hoping to avoid a generation of IRS audits for all of their children and grandchildren.

There are only 4 strong Conservatives on the Court: Scalia, Thomas, Roberts and Alito. The other 5 are Moderates or Libs. How many are needed for the Court to even hear the case?

Why are you supporting the GOP or it's candidates if they are unwilling to even demand an investigation? McCain himself is on record as saying: "No, ma'am, he's a decent family man, a citizen, who I just happen to have disagreements with on fundamental issues."

Have you ever heard about something called :The "Drive-By" media???

The answer to your question is "four".

Phone Numbner for the USSC Clerk’s Office: 202-479-3011.

Time to start calling to demand that the USSC take the case and enforce the Constitution.

Oh... and another thing to consider...

One of the court system’s favorite ways to dodge an issue is to use “precedence”. Judges will simply rely upon previous rulings (right or wrong) to dismiss a case or to repeat the same bad judgment over and over again based upon their biased leanings. In doing so, they point their finger of blame at another judge like you might point your finger at the dog after passing gas.

This judge went beyond his duty to rule in this case.
He set a NEW precedence by claiming that a citizen does not have “standing” in POTUS. If the SCOTUS refuses to hear this appeal, This lower court judge has just set one of the most dangerous precedences in our nations history.
Future cases involving challenges to an elected official will be dismissed as a result of this one.

Only four Justices are needed to hear the suit? That’s good.

If the courts tell the people that “ You have no standing “ then ? were do the courts get their authority ?

Does ? or does it not ? .... does the government get it's authority from the " People " in this country ? ... I thought we were living in the USA here.

My brother was telling that the powers of the President has been watered down, and that, right after the Constitution was ratified, that the President had more authority then he or she does now....
