The only really important part of the court’s ruling is:

“The question, therefore, is straightforward: Does the Natural Born Citizen Clause create a federal right the violation of which results in a cognizable [Sec.] 1983 claim? We think not…Like the Supremacy Clause and the foreign affairs powers, the Natural Born Citizen Clause does not confer an individual right on citizens or voters. Therefore, Plaintiff cannot state a cognizable [Sec.] 1983 claim.”

So, the Eastern District of PA has just found another part of the Constitution that has no meaning, and cannot be enforced. Great. Wonderful. So glad that the courts are so eager to protect their role as the sole interpreter of the constitution by ignoring it. Yes, the constitution is the highest law of the land. A law so high that none can claim it in their defense...

How can it be that the plain words of the constitutional requirements for anyone seeking the presidency cannot be enforced, because of a lack of constitutional standing on the part of the governed? It turns everything upside down!

WE THE PEOPLE of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA and the US CONSTITUTION have " STANDING " .... any judge that usurps the US Constitution is violating the US Constitution and the people's rights.

" We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,[1] promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America "

He Ran UNOPPOSED for Senator for Illinois!

He ran against Allen Keyes, not that there's much difference.

I meant unopposed by anyone in his Party. He had them all disqualified, disenfranchising thousands of voters by having their signed petitions thrown out.

If his suit was thrown out based on his not having legal standing, who DOES have standing to question a candidate’s eligibility?

If a private citizen doesn’t have standing, then I’d suggest that a secretary of state, by virtue of their responsibility to ensure legality and correctness of the ballots has standing (certainly one of the 57 would have the guts to raise the issue). Where is Katherine Harris when we need her?
And if the secretary of state doesn’t have standing, then the electors of each state should have standing as it is their responsibility to cast the official state’s ballots.
And if they don’t have standing, then the chief justice of the Supreme Court has standing as it is generally his responsibility to administer the oath of office and officially make the winner the President.
To ignore this, as I think the supremes will do makes a mockery of the Constitution of the US.
And if all that fails, and Obama does prevail and takes the oath to “protect and defend the constitution of the US”
then it is up to the House of Representatives to ensure the integrity of the constitution by impeaching him as he will have effectively violated the constitution without a doubt!
We all know how far this House led by lady Nancy will take this.
And finally, whichever agency issues the checks to federal employees also has a responsibility to ensure their employees are legal employees before issuing their pay checks.
And by the way, doesn’t the department of State have a responsibility to ensure one is a citizen before issuing a passport? Perhaps this is the reason Obama never travelled overseas before he had a senatorial diplomatic passport? I bet every one of us that has a passport had to show proof of birth and citizenship !!

Although Berg has taken this to the next level, I still see PA as a point of protest due to the current battle for the state’s EV.

After this fiasco, how many do you think either will or will not come to the point were we will have to admen the US Constitution were not only will it say that anyone running for President has to be over 35 years old, and a “ Natural Born “ US Citizen, but, will have to show and prove that they have a valid US birth certificate that would satisfy any qualifications.

Because to liberals, the people have no rights, only (tax) obligations.

WRONG!

They have a right to an abortion. They have the right to a home they can't afford. They have a right to health care.

To a liberal, the only rights they don't have are the ones the constitution guarantees to the people, like the right to bear arms.

I hope that clears things up for you.

I've said all along, Berg needs to call one of the three guys who were caught in the State Department looking at High Profile Passports, including Obama’s.

Your passport says where you were born.

Also, if Berg has no standing. At the very least a Republican Electoral College member needs to immediately file a complaint or a request to see the Birth Certificate ASAP after the election[Nov 5] if Obama wins, prior to the EC vote.

Oh, you are talking about the Illinois STATE Senate. Yeah he did do that, even after he told the incumbent he wouldn’t run to take her spot if she failed her Congressional bid.

I agree with what Freeper Congressman Billybob wrote. To make a case of this significance work you have to have a solid foundation in precedents. Otherwise a court, a judge, is going to want to deflect it off, using some weak precedent if it is available. Which is what happened.

" This stinks of conflict of interest "

I am not a lawyer, but, any lawyers out there ?
If there is a conflict of interest in this case by the judge, can a higher court strike down a judges decision if it can be proven that the judge in this case had a conflict of interest ?

“The Constitution itself does not say.”

Actually, it does..

“Amendment IX

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. “

The problem is getting a Judge to recognize this ‘fact’..

How can it be frivolous if a black grandmother says she was at the birth of her grandson IN KENYA....

Berg said on Savage interview the other night that he has recordings of the grandmother saying that. I believe he also has affidavits attesting to this also.

I don’t believe he had that when he started the original suit but may he can enter them into evidence and put them out to the public at the same time as part of the SCOTUS suit. That will help with the interest factor of the public.
