But again, I do not want him to offer evidence he is natural born, I want the Republicans to demonstrate he was not.
Agree with both of you. Perhaps did not make myself clear.
He is today under no obligation to demonstrate he is a natural born citizen. That is to say, not until a court directs him to do so. Or perhaps he is invited to do so on Jan 8, ‘09 by a Republican Senator and Representative.
So far, it appears he has only certified perhaps simply by checking a box on each state’s primary filing form that he is qualified. (I emailed for a copy of my state’s form and got no response, plan to visit their office.) Clearly, he as an attorney-constitutional law lecturer has by several of his actions defrauded the voters.
Now what? Perhaps one or more of the lawsuits will succeed; I am betting the CA Keyes action is the most promising. But O, his handlers and his legal team have game played this are prepared to offer any number of misleading and distracting arguments and evidence until Jan 20, ‘09. Bottom line: we may or may not get lucky in the courtroom.
Then what? Will the USSC step in and stay the swearing-in process on the assumption he MAY BE disqualified? Who knows? It is possible they will conclude impeachment is the proper remedy whereupon we are looking at a Dem-controlled impeachment proceeding.
Would you bet on that outcome?
In my opinion, this issue is too important to leave anything to luck, our Republicans need to step up, go on the offense and stamp it out.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and any others that may be reading our posts today!
