"Senator: Resolve eligibility in court
'I support organizations' that raise birth challenge

A Republican senator from Louisiana, David Vitter, is suggesting the dispute over Barack Obama's eligibility to be president be resolved in court.

"I support conservative legal organizations and others who would bring that to court," the Associated Press reported a video of the event revealed him saying.

Vitter becomes just the latest high-profile leader, and the first U.S. senator, to take such a strong stand on the issue.

It's also significant that the AP, which has stated publicly that the president's "birth certificate" has been made public even though the image of the document posted online actually is a "certification of live birth," which under Hawaiian procedures was available to those not born in the state, reported on Vitter's comments.

Whether it’s to late or not, maybe Gov. Brewer can have her AG take a look at that piece of paper Obama signed and investigate it, and have Obama’s records opened up for discovery.

” No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”

Someone should do a cartoon of a little BO standing next to a sign like this

except substitute "natural born" for "this tall" and "be POTUS" for "ride this ride."

”(a)(1) If, by reason of death, resignation, removal from office, inability, or failure to qualify, there is neither a President nor Vice President to discharge the powers and duties of the office of President, then the Speaker of the House of Representatives shall, upon his resignation as Speaker and as Representative in Congress, act as President. “<

Pelosi would not qualify because she would be suspect in being involved in this scam, for she signed that piece of paper for the DNC that qualified Obama to be eligible to be the Democrat Presidential candidate.
Perhaps that is what the Democrats in Congress are worried about.
After November, Pelosi won't be speaker of the house and if Obama resigned, then, a Republican speaker of the house would become president.

Defeatist.

That’s not the way to win wars. Plus the evidence shows that more and more Americans are questioning his legitimacy and becoming wise to his crap.

Do you have more information or links about the Electoral Vote Counting Act of 1877? I could do a search for it, but if you’ve got links handy that would save some time.

This is exactly what I’ve been conversing about over at http://court-martial-ucmj.com/ltc-lakin/comment-page-1/ . Any historical references we have would be tremendously helpful.

Good point. Thanks for the suggestion. It will be added for the next version.

Cheers to a spot on post. You’ve laid out all the arguments in plain English that even an after birther could understand.

"Supposedly," an "injured" person(s) should have standing.

And, are not the majority of Americans "injured" by a "president" who refuses to verify if he meets the minimum qualifications to be president in accordance with the Constitution? If we are a nation of laws and not men, why is it that the men who have challenged his eligibility are being dissed by the courts whose job it is to enforce or interpret the law?

Again, this is a fundamental Constitutional issue and, IMO, ANY American citizen should have the right to challenge him on Constitutional grounds.

I hear there was some speculation of a TV reality court show aimed specifically at digging through all the vague past of Barack Obama.

Apparently there seems to be a good supply of viewers wanting to know who is sitting in the Whitehouse illegally, how he stole the primaries, how he was shoved from behind and skipped the election qualification processes.

But most importantly is that a series like this will have a good long seasonal run and should give viewers many years worth of re-runs.

Now some of you know me, and most think this is satire or that I’m high on something, but you what? Tell me it won’t be talked about as a serious consideration of drawing America to the screen and also selling advertising time?

It will happen, mark my words. I am betting there is a casting call going out right now for a judge, a bailiff with a particular style and a cast.

I agree with you completely. I believe that the communist regime is showing its teeth. It's using the Chicago thuggery to scare anybody who seriously challenges them. That must include judges who must have been told something like... you will be responsible for riots and civil disorder, etc.

The country of law and order is held hostage by the threat of minority rioting and destroying our peace and tranquility.

I tried to go around the ridiculous excuse of "standing." I read somewhere, maybe on FR, that an election result is not considered collectively injurious to the populace. Therefore, I thought I found a way to prove that a candidate is injured and the court should rectify it under equal protection under the law.

I'm afraid that we've to jump hoops to stop the communists from shredding the constitution and do what they please.

Come November, if we take at least the House, we should start defunding all 0b0z0's passed bills, investigating all what this Administration did, including but not limited to, the appointed Communist Czars, etc.

Electoral Vote Counting Act of 1877

Here is another bit of info you might like to see in regards to the federal position on the eligibility matter and who they, the feds, claim have “standing” to question the eligibility of a President elect.

Basically, they make my case.

Link to Article About Federal Position on Eligibility Standing

a quote from the argument:

"The Constitution's commitment to the Electoral College of the responsibility to select the president includes the authority to decide whether a presidential candidate is qualified for office," said a brief filed by government lawyers in a California lawsuit over Obama's eligibility under the Constitution's demand for a "natural born citizen" in the White House.

That's because, the brief states, "the examination of a candidate's qualifications is an integral component of the electors' decision-making process. The Constitution also provides that, after the Electoral College has voted, further review of a presidential candidate's eligibility for office, to the extent such review is required, rests with Congress."

It is precisely the twentieth amendment, section three that they are talking about in pertinence to Congress review of eligibility.

Here is the Free Republic Discussion on this subject.

the sad fact is that no one is bringing Obama’s eligibility to court, not even this Senator, in the only possible way:

Sue the State of Hawaii for issuing false or inaccurate Certficates. Sue the Governor of Hawaii for making false public statements. This would be a criminal action, not a civil one, and everyone has standing.

Nobody is doing this.

Flooding the courts with pretextual cases is an enormous waste of time.
