it’s already been established by law enforcement that the document is a forgery. of course, no charges have been filed.
why you ask?
because 0bama has never OFFICIALLY SUBMITTED the birth certificate to any governmental office. that would be fraud. a jpeg on a website is nothing.
of course, he has used a ssno on his tax returns that is not his. THAT is fraud... and still, no charges filed.
moral of the story: if you’re a democrat official high enough in the party, the law will not be applied to you.
(1) Constitutionality:
Since the judicial system has failed to rule directly on Obama’s right to run for the office, we are left in dependence upon a ‘consensus.’ At this time, that seems to be that:
“one is a ‘Natural Born Citizen,’if either one of the
birth parents is an American citizen,” period.
Place of birth, citizenship of the father, age of the mother, residence of the mother during her majority and its duration, etc., seem to have all become moot.
In a corollary bit of torturous legal logic, it seems that anyone born in the United States is considered a ‘Natural Born Citizen.’ If the parents are foreigners, whether in this country legally or not, their child is also entitled to their original foreign citizenship. Thus, a ‘dual citizen’ Anchor Baby is also a “Natural Born Citizen.”
Of course, many of us do not agree! However, Fuss, fume, and foam as we may, it appears that this is now how it is. Of course, this ‘consensus’ also explains why Ted Cruz, Bobby Jindal, and Marco Rubio (et al) are apparently considered constitutionally eligible to run for the office of President of the US. It is also why Sheriff Joe wisely NEVER addresses the issue of Obama’s constitutional eligibility. That fight may, or may not, be over ... except that it IS over for all practical intents and purposes in the near future.
(2) Forgery:
This is the Lesson of Sheriff Joe. Forged documents may have been placed in the federal and state public record. What is on those documents may, or may not be true or false. Not the point. The point is, the crime would be forgery, not ineligibility. The crime of forgery SHOULD be actionable by civil authority because there is strong enough evidence that the documents are fraudulent. However, and is a big however:
This goes a long way toward giving prosecutors and the courts' an excuse for their refusal to deal with Sheriff Joe's evidence.
Although it is easy to conflate one into the other, these two issues are NOT directly related. Of course. at the same time, they are damn well related. Hence the confusion. Hence the chaos. Hence our inability to remove the man from office. Hence our uniquely American ability to "fuggedaboutit" and get on with our lives. If this blessèd Republic were in South America instead of North America, there would have already been blood in the streets of the capital. I pray that the failure of our judiciary and our elected representatives to honestly examine these issues does not lead us to that.
