too bad
Yeah, Alan Keyes...will definitely hitch my wagon to THAT star...
Have no fear there are at least 15 others out there.
Someone will end up being extremely sorry in letting this guy off the hook. Its pretty obvious something is very phony about his birth and legal status.
And, people are still being encarcerated for stealing a loaf of bread.
Hillary jumped the shark be taking the Sec. of State job and is in no position to be critical.
As said on another thread... country as we know it, is slowly coming to an end... how a fraud and empty suit like this gets all this way is beyond comprehension.
At least it’s getting media attention now and will dog him for a while.
and the reason was...
can’t wait to hear on what grounds it was rejected....i guess this opens the door for any tom / dick or harry to run no matter where he or she is from since there is nothing in place to ensure the person is a true american...hmmm which brings up this thought....what is an american anymore...??
I am ignorant of legal affairs but I had hoped that the suits were written and filed correctly and would be heard by the SCOTUS. Will we ever know the reasons for not hearing the case? Are all the justices spineless or is there a valid reason for their action? Does the Constitution mean anything?
Sadly, all three branches of our government must be under the control of one party.
I have never felt such pity for my country.
Poop!
I hope nobody here seriously thought the Supreme Court would uphold the Constitution in a case involving the black messiah! Goodness, what would you be thinking....
Schwarzenegger/Granholm 2016!!
This case had nothing to do with the birth certificate.
Please do not label “insane” the calling out of illegality.
If we become so cynical as to roll over and accept anything thrust upon us because the odds are daunting we are doomed.
We have to fight to uphold standards and law. We also fight against those that ridicule us for doing so, as you are doing.
When applying for a writ of certiorari the court reads your briefs. If they side for you they grant cert, which means they will review the trial court record and the new briefs that you submit. Then they can decide to hold a hearing.
I have to admit there was still some small part of me that believed truth would conquer lies, good would conquer evil, right would conquer wrong. I know... I know, I should have forgotten all those silly ideas when more than half our country voted for Obama, but there you go.
I guess, now, all a Presidential candidate has to do to prove they’re eligible is to say they’re eligible, act huffy, and lawyer up when asked to prove it by citizens (those puny little people who obviously no longer matter AT ALL in what used to be America). Of course, this only goes for Socialist, politically correct candidates. Republicans have to have lived spotless, blameless lives, documented to the Nth degree.
Donofro’s case didn’t question where Obama was born, it started with the assumption that he was born in Hawaii. His case was to challenge what is defined as a natural born citizen, arguing original intent instead of what is recognized under Title 8.
What a sad day for the country and the Consitution.
The Lightfoot case represented by Orly is next before the Keyes case.
Leo was just the tip of a very big iceberg - Loooooong way from over!!!
I’ve “been on this” since the election. How ‘bout you?
Not a big shock.
