Please excuse my rant. I had to "share." I sent an update about the POE stuff to my mother, who has been a court reporter for a federal judge for 25 years, and this is how she responded:

"Interesting. But I wouldn't get really excited about it. He's the president now. And too, Andrew Jackson wasn't born in the US so there is precedence. Jackson was born on the ship bringing his parents to America from Ireland. I think at this point relieving him of office would send the USA spiraling into turmoil."

I told her that it is irrelevant where Jackson was born because he was a citizen of the U.S. in 1787 when the Constitution was adopted. He would fit the exact purpose of the grandfather clause. There was no precedent established! (Besides that only one historian makes that claim about Jackson's birth. All others believe he was born in the Carolinas.) I also told her that if she would sacrifice the Constitution out of fear then she has no business being an officer of the Court. Unbelievable.

One error I noticed right away is that Obama Sr has been given a Phd which he never had! He earned an M.A. but never stayed long enough to earn a Phd. His family in Kenya did call him Dr but he wasn’t! FWIW
