U.S. attorney: Nothing Americans can do about eligibility

A team of U.S. attorneys based in California has argued to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that there essentially is nothing the American public can do to determine if, in fact, Barack Obama is qualified under the U.S. Constitution's demand for a "natural born citizen" in the Oval Office, and if they are injured, at least they are all injured alike.

The arguments were presented in a brief submitted by U.S. Attorney Andre Birotte Jr. and his assistants Roger West and David DeJute in defense of a lawsuit that was brought by a long list of plaintiffs including a presidential candidate, members of the military, members of the state legislature and others against Obama.

The plaintiffs had asked the appeals court to reopen the arguments because the district court's ruling, left standing, would strip minorities in the United States of "all political power" and leave laws to be based "upon the whims of the majority."

That earlier brief was filed by Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation, who is representing Wiley S. Drake, a vice presidential candidate on the 2008 ballot in California, and Markham Robinson, an elector from the state.

“The only remedy to remove a sitting President is impeachment.”

Historically, that is clearly not the case...

His father Frank Marshall Davis. His mother could have been his grandma. Maybe Stanley claimed the baby to keep grandma her job at the bank.

But Nixon was a Republican!Democrats can’t be prosecuted for malfeasance,misfeasance,or just plain crimes.

Yeah, we were talking about that tonight.

He looks strongly like both Stanley Ann Dunham and her father.

[kabumpo]

He looks almost like the grandfather, not at all like the grandmother.

It should be taken as Self-evident that the United States Constitution means absolutely nothing to protect the reserved rights of the people so long as the Federal Governments own hand picked employees in black robes are the final authority on enforcing and “interpreting” it.

The old story of crabs in a bucket. Only here it is we the
people in place of the crabs. In the place of our poser
who wishes he was a natural born citizen—May the bird of paradise fly up his nose-an elephant caress him with his toes
May he know intimately the sailors curse for he is a mag a scag a bloody rag a slippery slimey slut—may his days be few and his office taken by another-I can’t say it any better.

[StonyBurk]

I think his Administration pretty much proves what todays mere politicians think of the Constitution they swear or affirm to support. The other JFK from Mass. (the first one) was Impeached as he drove by the book exchange— didn’t make much
difference as EEyore said.

[StonyBurk]

He looks like the stuff I flush away after eatin too many black beans.

I heard that before,it’s possible that Dumham adopted obama and returned to Hawaii and registered his birth. Regardless of how he was born or where ,obama is not a natural born citizens and is not the President of the U.S..

[GeronL]

we’re crabs now?

dang

Instead of telling us who doesn’t have standing perhaps these experts could tell us who does.

John McCain would have standing. Sarah Palin would have standing and the Republican National Committee on behalf of McCain-Palin would have standing.
However none of those parties chose to file suit, enter an existing suit as a co-plaintiff or even file an amicus brief in support of any of the Obama eligibility lawsuits that have been filed.
US District Court Judge David O Carter contemplated granting standing to Alan Keyes but decided against it on the grounds that Keyes had no chance of election since he was only on the ballot in three states.
McCain and Palin could show direct and immediate injury from the election of an ineligible Barack Obama since they were the only other persons to actually receive electoral college votes.
Think of standing like this: if there is a two car automobile accident and you are an observer of the accident but suffer no actual damages, should you be granted standing to sue either of the drivers?

ALSO, there are no issues of standing on the criminal justice side of the judicial system. ANY prosecuting attorney in the nation could initiate a Grand Jury investigation of Obama for election fraud, forgery, or altering documents.
With Grand Juries come the ability to subpoena documents and to compel witnesses to testify under oath.
Criminal Grand Jury investigations were utlized in Watergate, Iran-Contra, Whitewater, Paula Jones, and the CIA Leak-Valeria Plame affair. Obama’s buddy Rod Blagojevich was impeached and removed and convicted due to indictments issued by a federal grand jury in Illinois.
And Blagojevich was impeached by a Democrat majority in the state legislature.
If Obama were to be indicted, he would be finished. Indictments don’t extend from civil lawsuits.

I think Obama’s buddy Rod Blagojevich, the impeached, removed from office and convicted former Governor of Illinois would disagree with you.
A Grand Jury investigation that finds enough evidence of criminal activity to indict for election fraud is all that is needed.
Blagojevich was impeached by the Democrat controlled legislature in Illinois. If Obama was an indicted liability, the Democrats would dump him faster than you can say “Blagojevich!”

A nation state.

Same religion, culture, and language.

And the last man standing is Asia.

Goodbye the western world....it was great to know you.

The broken record of "no standing" is pure BS. A simple legal argument is all that is needed:

• Presidents are elected by electors
• States have mandated that electors are chosen by who has the most votes in a general election
• One vote can swing the selection of the electors from one candidate's electors to another
• As such, the tie-breaker has standing if voter fraud is in play - if this vote is not tallied correctly, your right to vote is compromised
• Due to privacy and protection statutes, the tie-breaker can not be revealed
• Therefore anyone in the general election can be considered to be a tie breaker
• Ultimately everyone has standing because every vote counts at the state level

These lawsuits are going about it the wrong way. Sue the state for failing to tally votes correctly as other votes are invalid due to an unqualified candidate. This diminishes our right to vote as our votes are competing against invalid, illegal ones.

The states are ultimately at fault here. It is their responsibility for upholding the supreme law of the land by ensuring all electors are legal. We don't vote for president. We are voting for electors.
