Congress counts votes, January 9, 2009, Contact congressmen, Call senators and representatives Jan 6-8, Restore the Constitutional Republic, Obama not eligible, Obama not natural born citizen

“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without bloodshed,
If you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly,
You may come to the moment when you will have to fight
with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival.”

–Winston Churchill

I have been working with the group Restore the Constitutional Republic to
inform congressmen of the issues surrounding Obama’s eligibility and
trying to hold them accountable. The organization and website was formerly
called Democratic Disaster. We are still trying to get the word out to
congressmen before they convene on January 9, 2009 to count and verify
the Electoral College votes. I was asked to post the following:

Talking points for calls

Comments we have received from reps in the past.

Comment:  Even the Dept of Health in HI says they have his original birth certificate: 

Response and/or info on subject:  Yes, a press release was issued on October 31, 2008, by the Hawaii Department of Health by

its Director Dr. Fukino said that she had “personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of

Health has Senator Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”  

That statement failed to resolve any of the questions being raised by

litigation and press accounts. Being “on record” could mean either that its contents are in the computer

database of the department or there is an actual “vault” original. 

Further, the report does not say whether the birth certificate in the “record” is a

Certificate of Live Birth or a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth. In Hawaii, a Certificate of Live Birth

resulting from hospital documentation, including a signature of an attending physician, is different from a

Certificate of Hawaiian Birth. For births prior to 1972, a Certificate of Hawaiian Birth was the result of

the uncorroborated testimony of one witness and was not generated by a hospital. Such a Certificate

could be obtained up to one year from the date of the child’s birth. For that reason, its value as prima

facie evidence is limited and could be overcome if any of the allegations of substantial evidence of birth

outside Hawaii can be obtained. The vault (long Version) birth certificate, per Hawaiian Statute 883.176

allows the birth in another State or another country to be registered in Hawaii. Box 7C of the vault

Certificate of Live Birth contains a question, whether the birth was in Hawaii or another State or Country. 

Therefore, the only way to verify the exact location of birth is to review a certified copy or the original

vault Certificate of Live Birth and compare the name of the hospital and the name and the signature of the

doctor against the birthing records on file at the hospital noted on the Certificate of the Live Birth. 

Comment: He and other websites have his birth certificate posted. 

Response:  There are reports showing that the authenticity of the bc on his website is in question. However, it does not matter

if it is or not. The document does not  have any of the necessary information to verify.  The only way to know the  exact

location of birth is to review a certified copy or the original vault Certificate of Live Birth and compare the name of the

hospital and the name and the signature of the doctor against the birthing records on file  at the hospital noted on the Certificate of the Live Birth. 
 

Comment:  The people vetted him when the majority voted for him (don’t argue with the figures, which we know are wrong) 

Response:  How can the people vet someone without the facts about that person.  Obama has not publicly released any

documents, including the bc and college documents.  Even if the bc online were proven to be his, many people do not get

on the internet.  They rely on the media to give them information or the candidate during a press conference.  This never happened. 

Comment:  It is too late to do anything.  We would not be able to do anything by the time he is supposed to take office. 

ResponseA challenge can be made by a senator and a member of the house on Jan 8.  The 20th amendment states that  

“if the President elect shall have failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a President shall

have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the case wherein neither a President elect nor a

Vice President elect shall have qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or in the manner in

which one who is to act shall be elected, and such person shall act accordingly until a President or Vice

President shall have qualified.” Thus, if Senator Obama cannot take office due to his citizenship,

succession to the Presidency is set. 

Closing comments to the person you are calling:

Sir, madam..however you address them. 

Mr. Obama needs to present all documents requested so they can be verified.  Since there are school records indicating that he was registered as Barry Soetero, Indonesian citizenship,

this should include not only his birth certiicate but also change of name and change of citizenship back to US documents.  

Bottom line is that Mr. Obama has 3 teams of lawyers working to keep these documents from being released when he could easily end the speculation..  Do you think that a person that has nothing to hide would do this?

  1. January 20, 2009: MAY BE THE SADDEST DAY IN AMERICAN HISTORY?

    “No Burris in our Senate” protests Harry Reid, the ever so self righteous. “Blago, you evil, step down. Richardson, we will not tolerate corruption in our pure and infallible government,” Democratic crocodile honorables are proclaiming! “We wash our hands of you, Blabbing Blago,” the so very nobles exclaim to the caught-with-his-pants-down Illinois Democratic governor. My, my, my, what proud defenders of decency, honesty and justice our politicians have recently become! There wonderful actions should make your heart soar like an eagle with pride.

    With politicians of such of integrity, why am I not soaring like an eagle? How come I don’t feel ever so clean, safe and humble in the face of this brave leadership? Why is it I only feel disgust? Could it be the only reason the Dems are angry with Blago is because he was careless enough to get caught? Could it be the timing of Blago’s arrest is of special benefit to the Obama thugs? Somewhere in the Obama worshiper’s murky souls is joy because all MSM attention is focused on Blago, Burris, and Richardson. They have turned these guys into red herrings so they can complete their final strategy without interference? While MSM is wasting news time making a big deal over these menial scandals, it continues to keep public the attention off the greatest and most horrible crime about to happen to America. The master minds of this hideous conspiracy are hoping the public will not notice or even care they are placing a USURPER in the Whitehouse! They are coating the event with so much glitz and glitter; they actually think the public will believe this is cause for celebration instead of profound sorrow! These guilty conspirators not only steal the presidency, rape the Constitution, they mind fuck the public! That is audacity at its finest!

    Strange as it is, Obama is far less offensive to me in the over all scheme than the people currently in government who aided and abetted him knowing fully that once installed, he will be a USURPER. If I were Obama with an opportunity to be President regardless if I were or were not a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN, I would do exactly what Obama has done and is doing. Hooray for me and the heck with you! To hell with the American constitution. To hell with America. Take it to the limit and see if I can get away with it. What is there to lose compared with what is there to win? If Obama does get away with it, then he can become Emperor of the Universe. If the stupid American people should wake up, and say; “No, Obama, you are not qualified, you can not be president.” So what! So what is the worst they can do to him? So what if Sotoero’ hands get slapped. So what if he doesn’t get to play in that sand box for awhile. It is a small risk for such a huge prize.

    If Sotoero takes the oath Jan.15, 2009 on President Lincoln’s Bible, our present government will knowingly have installed a USURPER. From Jan.15, 2009 forward the American people have been betrayed by their own elected people. This day will go forever down in world history as the blackest day of America. It will be known as the day the completion of the Coup d’ etat. America was sold to the highest bidder. In more basic terms, if Obama is sworn in on Jan.20, 2009, The American people have been screwed, blewed, and tattooed by its own government. The Obama thugs and worshipers will have taken America down a no return “shit’s creek”.

    Obama is not the only villain in the Coup d’ etat. Obama has a whole legion of traitors willing to commit treason against America. The real villains are the whores and sluts of Congress, state and Supreme Courts, and the American People who knew Obama did not qualify and ignored the rule of the Constitution and supported him any way. Bill and Hilary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Oprah Winfrey, The Kennedys, every member of the electoral college who voted for Obama in spite of being well advised to not do so until Obama first established proof he is qualified. (Which to this date he has not.) The judges who refused to make a simple court order—ask Obama to produce his docs and prove he qualifies. These judges chose not to do their jobs and dismissed the many law suits based upon technicality. They, too, are guilty and responsible for the loss of America. These judges know who they are and so does the American public. The nine Judges of the Supreme Court who appear to be going along with the Coup d’ etat rather that honor their oath to uphold and protect the Constitution of the United States and throw the bum out! (Justice Roberts has agreed to swear Obama, the Usurper into office.) What does that make Justice Roberts? What does that predict about what the judges are going to rule regarding Obama’s eligibility to be POTUS.

    It is quite obvious there is a reverse lynch mentality in the actions of these Obama Worshipers. They appear to think that strength in numbers absolve them of guilt. Crime is crime whether committed by only one person or 1,000,000 people. Every person who knew Obama is not eligible to president who assisted Obama’s journey to the Whitehouse by ignoring the Constitutional rule in any way shape or form no matter how small or big is guilty of conspiracy, treason, perjury, public betrayal, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty and, and, and, and, and, and, and.

    Even if Obama moves into the Whitehouse and assumes the role of Presidency, the issue of Obama not being a Natural Born Citizen and is therefore a Usurper will not end. There are thousands of patriotic citizens who are going to continue through legal methods to insist Obama produce his documents and challenge the legality of anything he does while he remains in office without having proved he is qualified.

    This is the greatest scandal in American history. It has and will become a monumental mirror daily reflecting to all the people involved their own corrupt characters. This excruciating scandal is shouting to the whole world the names of the people who so willingly sold America—their own country– for the price of a little dirty power and 30 pieces of silver. The names of every one of you are well known. Sooner or later this mess will be sorted out. Even though you may dance at his inauguration, you will one day regret January 20, 2009. You will discover you didn’t get away with it. One day each and every one of you will be held legally accountable in the same way the Nazi war criminals were made to stand trial for their crimes against humanity. You know who you are. So does the world.

  2. Getting my motivation UP.

    BO is considering a CNN correspondent (Oprah’s friend Gupta) for some office of some kind.

    WE ARE ON A RUNAWAY TRAIN.

    I plan to draft my letter to President Elect, soon. I may need a place to live after that.

  3. CitizenWElls's avatar citizenwells

    Therese.
    You write well.

  4. The form Obama posted is a CertificatION of Live Birth, while the long form is the CertificatE of Live Birth.
    On the Certificate the 7 boxes relate to the mother’s address. The 6 boxes relate to the infant. Box 6a is particularily important.
    Not trying to be a nit picker… but we don’t want things tossed on a technicality.
    Keep up the great work – our nation owes you a huge debt!

  5. Therese Daniels

    Please take no disrespect.

    I am tired of giving the “ONE” any sort of a pass. (not that you are, but this “home grown” potus elect still gets leeway, even when we criticize him)

    He is the PUPPET. And it has been planned this way.

    Everyone else “next to him” is holding a STRING.

    He may not know WHO he will be (as an end result). He has not decided this yet (re: ” voting present”)

    But in any configuration, “he” will NOT be us.

    And there is enough SIUMULTANEOUS elation/confusion amongst the “string holders”, that there is a SMALL window of opportunity, to show them that WE WILL NOT ALLOW THEM TO TAKE US OVER.

    The msm has kept us contained within these blogs.

    Soon, these blogs will disappear.

    The silent majority will be “dismissed”.

    EVERYONE CAN HEAR US but no one is listening.

    It cannot get more dire than this.

    I feel as though, not enough folks are paying attention to history.

    NOBODY believes that we can be controlled in the way that this new administration is planning.

    Not enough people are paying attention.

    Thank God for folks like CW.

    We have to stand for SOMETHING.

    In my own way, I am doing my part.

    That is all that I can do.

  6. In my best Joe Biden impression, “Mark my words…” I predict…that Burris will be quietly sworn in before Thursday so as to avoid his testimony. We can’t be testifying about such silly things as citizen status in those great halls of DC.

    “Senator-designate Roland Burris has been asked to testify on Thursday before the Illinois House impeachment committee about the circumstances surrounding his appointment by Gov. Rod Blagojevich. Senate Democrats turned Burris away at the doors to the world’s most exclusive club on the ground that his appointment had not been signed by Secretary of State Jesse White, the mere ministerial act his office performs in the appointment process. In advance of his planned testimony on Thursday, Burris furnished the impeachment committee an affidavit. In that affidavit, Burris states that he is at least 30 years of age and “a natural born citizen of the United States.” Article I of the U.S. Constitution requires a senator to be at least 30 years of age and “a citizen” of the United States for at least nine years. The “natural born citizen” requirement is only found in Article II of the U.S. Constitution establishing the qualifications for president of the United States. One can’t help but wonder if Burris’ “natural born citizen” status mentioned in his affidavit is a pointed barb at President-elect Obama, whose status has been called into question in more than a dozen lawsuits and who has withheld support for Burris’ appointment.”

  7. I called my congressman , and Ron paul. Here is a summary of what Ron Paul’s staffer said:

    I did get a call from Ron Paul’s staffer, Norman. He was polite and explained that Ron Paul did not feel there was enough evidence to take such an action. He kept saying there is nothing to it, but He did not have anything specific to answer the dual citizenship at birth or the Indonesia citizenship issues (the real issues, not the smokescreen issues). He mentioned that Marty Berg is a Clinton supporter, and that the Clinton’s would have been all over this if there was anything to it (what if they are tied into it or have secrets that Obama keeps?). I don’t accept that kind of logic (Clinton’s vetted him by not attacking him).

    I conceded that if Ron Paul truly believes there is not a case, his position is correct, but still am not convinced that he is right (i.e., that there is no case). I understand the ire that would be raised if congress took such an action, but I still contend that it is the constitution that is at stake, and that Obama really dug himself in by refusing to provide:

    1. Original birth certification with the name and location of the hospital, attending physician, witnesses, etc.
    2. Not providing information on his Indonesian citizenship status.
    3. Sealing records (i.e., his dissertation, and university enrollment applications, etc.).

    Mr. Obama is running for president of the United States, not coach of an 8 year old softball team in Gary, Indiana. We have some right to ask questions, and if we do not get answers, we should be suspicious. It’s time to take back our country.

    See my view here:
    http://www.JoeSixPack.me

  8. I am getting a bit agitated at all these blog posts trying to show reasons why Obama is not a natural born citizen and/or is a lying you-know-what and/or what his real name is and/or whatever.

    We are down to the wire now. We need to get out of the theory stage and into the ACTION stage.

    Short calls, but many of them.
    Short emails, but many of them.
    Short letters, but many of them.

    And definitely do the thing that needs to be notarized that was suggested on http://www.texasdarlin.wordpress.com on one of my comments for the second post (it’s a comment in the post re the contribution). I’ll try to get the link and post it here.

    Please, stop overthinking this now and get to work. Can you see what is already happening even BEFORE January 20th? Nancy PeLiarosi is already trying to make this a one party Congress and Obama is limiting the press’ questions AND WHO KNOWS WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES?

    If every one who reads here (thousands per day) makes one phone call, writes one email and sends one letter every single day …. now THAT would really be something. As Nike says, “Just do it.”

  12. Here’s my post from texasdarlin … please, I urge EVERYONE to print this out, bring it to your bank to notarize (free) and mail it in today or tomorrow. Please. It’s after the line below.

    Then every single day, make one phone call to a Senator or Representative, send one email and send one letter. If everyone does that every single day, the results will be a heck of a lot better than if we just whine and moan all day about how right we are about how wrong this whole situation is.
    ————————————————————-
    Wow, this is fabulous. Below is the link … just print it out, fill in the blanks on the bottom, sign it in front of a notary (have it notarized), place stamp and mail to your Senator and Representative ASAP … do it now, it only takes a moment. By the way, notary is free at TD bank (formerly Commerce Bank) and probably YOUR bank, too!

    Apparently, we are allowed to do this legally according to the Constitution. (Thank you, Jacqlyn Smith poster at citizenwells, for the link). Amazing!

  13. I just watched a little bit “Hannity” and in a segment about Blago he said something like
    ‘the Supreme Court has to make sure that a candidate is eligible according to the constitution”
    I thought I was reading a blog!
    Did anybody else hear that?
    He talked abour Blago and Burris, but I am sure this was a message to us!
    Oh, waitaminute, I have to readjust my tinfoil hat.
    But seriously, this kind of message will only understand, who understands.

  14. Hey, CW,
    This is to you, and if you can, please give me an answer. My husband and I voted for McCain this time, and we really thought about what we were going to do, not knowing what we should do, although RP may have been the better choice. And neither one of us knew much about RP. I’m being honest.

    Anyway, and I know you may or may not know this, why was McCain not a natural born citizen? I only ask this because he was born of a military daddy and it would be rough for anyone military to prove he’s not natural born. The reason that I say this is, those guys are wonderful and protect us (the U.S.) and I can see them saying, You’d better believe my child is natural born! This is because I have a son-in-law who has been in Iraq twice now. And what I’m saying is this, I know my son-in-law and if he had his child over there while being in the U.S. Army, you’d better believe he’d say, My child is natural born — and keep in mind this point, because I’m fighting for your asses!!! Well, that’s what he would say, sorry.

    So even though one must be born on American soil, there is something more to it. I think that it has to do with unity and not a division of allegiance. You can’t say one who is military and is actually fighting for our nation has a division of allegiance, can you?

    Please reply.

    Thanks

  16. And, this one was posted by Katie over at Dr. Orly’s blog:

    Notice Burris’ remark that he is a natural born citizen–was this aimed at Obama?

  17. URGENT! VOLUNTEERS NEEDED TO MAKE CALLS TODAY – JANUARY 7TH, 2009!

    On January 8, 2009, both the U.S. Senate and House shall meet for the purpose of counting and certifying the electoral votes. After the vote has been counted, the President of the Senate shall call for objections. It is at this time that Federal officials in both the House and Senate may object to the certification of President-elect Obama by alleging that he fails to meet the Constitutional requirements to serve as President of the United States. We only need ONE Senator and ONE Representative to object and demand that President Elect Obama provide the proper paper work that proves UNDENIABLY that he is eligible to be President under the rules of the Constitution.

    Please call the Senators and Representatives listed below who have shown concern for this issue and ask that they show the courage in objecting to this certification of the electoral votes until President Elect Obama’s proves his eligibility.

    Here is a Q/A with Phil Berg, whose case will be in conference by the Supreme Court on January 9th.

  20. Dear XXX:

    Thank you for contacting my office regarding Senator Barack Obama’s birth certificate. I appreciate hearing from you and appreciate the opportunity to respond.

    The United States Constitution requires the President to be a natural born citizen of the United States. Senator Obama’s campaign provided his birth certificate to the media amid allegations that he did not meet this qualification. The certificate, confirmed by the Hawaii Department of Health as authentic, shows that he was born in Hawaii. There are a number of lawsuits pending on this matter, and I will be following the outcomes of the cases closely.

    Thank you again for contacting me. Please visit my webpage at http://isakson.senate.gov/ for more information on the issues important to you and to sign up for my e-newsletter.

    Sincerely,
    Johnny Isakson

    Simple answer. McCain had 2 US citizen parents.

  22. I’m a newbie here, but maybe this info might help. I saw an article tonight that said Sen. Tom Coburn (R-OK) has been a real pain to Harry Reid lately and has tried to block a bunch of bills that Harry wants passed. Obama even dared to mention that Coburn was a friend of his, but I think Dr. Coburn sounds like a patriot. He might be the senator we need to stand up in the Senate on Thursday and object to the electoral vote. Does anybody think he might do it?

  23. FedEx Supreme Court on Obama’s eligibility
    WND makes it easy, cheaper to ask justices to resolve questions
    WASHINGTON – You can make sure the Supreme Court justices have a piece of your mind when they review a case Friday, Jan. 9, and again Friday, Jan. 16, challenging the eligibility of Barack Obama under Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution, which stipulates the office of president can only be filled by “a natural born citizen.”

    Because the Supreme Court justices do not accept faxes, e-mails or telephone calls, there is only one way to make your voice heard in time – overnight delivery of your letter.

    WND is making that easy and inexpensive to do for a limited period of time in the next week as the justices review yet another case challenging Obama’s eligibility. Through 1 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 14, you can send letters to each one of the nine U.S. Supreme Court justices urging them to take seriously the constitutional issues at stake in establishing the eligibility of the next president.

    Hi everyone——I trust that you all are getting your Point of Order documents notarized and sent out. I am posting my letter that I not only mailed but I also faxed it to Harry Reid, John Ensign (Senators from Nevada) and Shelley Berkley (Congresswoman from Nevada). I am also sending the letter and document for Point of Order to John McCain because I voted for him in the General Election but have been somewhat disappointed in him of late. I feel he has thrown Sarah Palin under the bus and he is acting more like a Liberal than a Conservative lately. Anyway….thought you all might like to read the letter I sent out today as fax and US mail…here goes!

    Dear Senator Reid,
    Being a concerned citizen of the United States of America I am using my right to “petition for redress of grievances” as preserved under the 1st Amendment of the Constitution in objecting to the election of Barack H. Obama II to the office of President of the United States of America. It is my understanding that this right to petition has constitutional force over any breach of the Constitution (or laws). As one of several elected officials from the State of Nevada…….and my voice in Washington D.C., I am requesting that you object on January 8, 2009 and there after in prohibiting Mr. Obama from becoming President Elect of our great nation. The reason for this objection is that Mr. Obama is not eligible to be President of the United States per the requirement of being “natural born” and this is certainly a breach of our treasured Constitution!

    Please use my enclosed document submitted with this letter on my behalf and know that you took an oath of office to uphold the Constitution. It is my right and your duty to demand that Mr. Obama prove he is a “natural born” citizen and qualified to be the President of the United States. This proof is of grave importance if he is to assume the highest office in our country. He must, under law, show “we the people” using legitimate and appropriate documentation…… that he is without a doubt a “natural born” citizen of the United States of America. I along with millions of other concerned citizens believe he is not!!! Please study the Constitution and I am sure you too will come to the realization that Mr. Obama never was and never will be eligible to operate as President of the United States of America as set forth by our founding fathers and the framers of our precious Constitution.

    Please demonstrate to me that you have taken your job as Senator of the United States seriously. I thank you for your service to our country and expect you to comply with your duty as a Senator because the Constitution also tells us…….If any person violates the Constitution then I, as a citizen of the United States of America can bring to the government any violation of the Constitution and it shall be made right. Therefore…. through my Petition for Point of Order provided for you here I request your representation of my objection on January 8, 2009 and thereafter.

    This is serious business and I can not reiterate it enough times the importance in making certain that we are electing a qualified person to the highest office in our land.

    Thank you for your help and I look forward to hearing from you and will take comfort in knowing that you will honor your oath of office this January 8, 2009 and there after. If you do not make this objection and Barack H. Obama II is allowed to take the oath of office on January 20, 2009 he will have become nothing more than a USURPER (removable by force) and you will have been a party to the breach of our Constitution which is punishable by law! Please do not suppose you are above the law concerning this because you are not!!!

    Best regards,

  25. Please, everyone, you only weaken your case when you provide false information (whether ignorantly or otherwise)!!! Box 7c of a Hawaiian BC has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE LOCATION OF THE BIRTH!

  26. Please, everyone, you only weaken your case when you provide false information (whether ignorantly or otherwise)!!! Box 7c of a Hawaiian BC has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE LOCATION OF THE BIRTH!

    Would everyone please get on the same page about this detail? Reporting that box 7c has anything to do with the possibility of birth outside of Hawaii is ONLY DAMAGING to the truth. It is enough that the COLB is possible with a foreign birth. Don’t send people away shaking their heads when they TAKE THE TIME TO ACTUALLY READ A REAL HAWAII BIRTH CERTIFICATE!!

    BOX 7c PERTAINS ONLY TO THE MOTHER’S USUAL ADDRESS as anyone can plainly see for themselves.

    You can’t “prove” anyting by citing nonsense.

    Get your facts straight if you want the doubters to take you seriously, please! It’s hard enough getting the attention of the comatose audience as it is, withoutmaking this even more difficult by stumbling all over your own message.

    Roberta and Rowena Wright are twin sisters. They both are oil heiresses. At age 20, the USC student, Roberta, eloped to Mexico with Jack McCain, where they were married at Caesar’s Bar in Tijuana in 1933.

    In 1936, Jack was stationed at Coco Solo in the Canal Zone, where “Johnny’s” grandfather was Admiral.

    Here’s a picture of the 3 men (with a story on the argument over McCain’s citizenship). The legal battle was partisan, and all of it wrong, very wrong — especially, and this is important, how they badly mistreated a regular citizen who was simply wanting to be told the truth!

    That was wrong, very wrong! But, this is what power does to people, and it goes along way to explaining why Sarah Palin was treated the way she was treated.

    Even Leo Donofrio got it wrong in his case. McCain is, in fact, no more a ‘natural born Citizen’ than Arnold Schwarzenegger.

    But that is not to take away anything from his own personal history — he grandfather was a great war hero, he father was a great war hero, and he himself is a great war hero — but still, he was ineligible for the office of President of the United States.

    As this is why no one is speaking up or saying anything about Barack Obama.

  28. The link to the New York Times story — most of the story is baloney — Gabriel “Jack” Chin is a political partisan against McCain in his home state of Arizona.

    Ted Olson is a former Solicitor General of the United States.

    Both of them were probably lied to.

  29. IMBED THIS IN YOUR MIND

    As long as I live I will never forget Obama “tossing” the flowers at Ground Zero Ceremony. McCain and his wife gracefully placed the flowers, while Obama without wife present casually threw the flowers on. Imbed this in your mind. The scene comes up in the first 40 seconds.

  32. Well….this one may be a Hall of Shame alternate? At least he says he will be following the cases:

    Dear Mrs. E——-:

    Thank you for contacting my office regarding Senator Barack Obama’s birth certificate. I appreciate hearing from you and appreciate the opportunity to respond.

    The United States Constitution requires the President to be a natural born citizen of the United States. Senator Obama’s campaign provided his birth certificate to the media amid allegations that he did not meet this qualification. The certificate, confirmed by the Hawaii Department of Health as authentic, shows that he was born in Hawaii. There are a number of lawsuits pending on this matter, and I will be following the outcomes of the cases closely.

    Thank you again for contacting me. Please visit my webpage at http://isakson.senate.gov/ for more information on the issues important to you and to sign up for my e-newsletter.

    Sincerely,
    Johnny Isakson
    United States Senator

  33. John –

    I agree about not citing obviously erroneous facts. But it should be also pointed out that the Hawaii law that allows foreign births to be registered in Hawaii was not on the books until well after Obama was born, so it could not have been used to register his foreign birth in 1961. Plus, the certification has his place of birth listed as Honolulu.

  34. I keep hearing / reading the Justices (I use that term with regret) do not accept phone calls or e-mail’s, may I suggest we show up in person??? A million or so can not be ignored. Storm the courthouse, and demand to be heard!!!!! Lets do it fellow American’s, take our country back. We are worth the Fight. January 12th seems to be a good day. gather your family and friends and fight for our Constitution.

  35. Apparently, the Sun-Yat-Sen birth certificate proves — according to Beckwith — here:

    is that you also own a Bridge in Brooklyn!

    Really, the Congress is up to their eyeballs in duck-doo now! After writing you all these letters?

    Now, no one will know where in the world he was born!

  36. REMEMBER ALL – TOMORROW AT 1PM EST ON C-SPAN 1 and/or2 WE AND THE WORLD WILL FIND OUT IF WE ARE A NATION OF MICE OR MEN.

  37. Check out Dr. Orly’s blog this morning with the list of all the many properties owned by someone named “Barack Obama” (or close spelling of Barack) across the nation. It’s a huge list!

  38. twe —

    The addresses near to where I own property do NOT match up. But, remember, the attorney’s that Obama used to work for, hold title to other people’s property as one of their services to wealthy clients, but to also “widows and orphans and disabled” who would never know how to take care of the legal aspects of property ownership. So, this really means nothing.

    West of the Mississippi, many parcels of land are owned by Escrow Departments, and Obama’s grandmother managed the Escrow Department for the Bank of Hawaii (or better, the Bank Paribas, Paris, France).

    So, there is probably nothing to this at all, exccpt for the fact that the addresses I know about do not check out as legal addresses at all.

    So, something is funny about this, but it’s not that Obama’s names are on the account. We will never know, because of attorney/client privilege.

  39. Hello everyone.
    I just called the offices of several reps/senators not all yet but so far all the staffies have been very good listeners.Duncan Hunter’s office gave me the e-mail for a senior staffie (joe.kasper@mail.house.gov) if you want to do that.Send compelling info.I copied the talkingg points after using my own explanation above it.At Hutchison’s office I asked how many calls he’s getting ..he said quite a few.I asked him to throw in my hat.I relayed my Constitutional talking points then told him with humor that if Kay Bailey didd not want to stand up that she had my legal permission to use my point of order that is en route to her office. He respectfully agreed with my “rights as a citizen” to avail myself..etc..It was a positive phone call.
    Try to humor along a bit and reference your hard work in researching case law + Vattel’s definition,etc…

  40. stand up and fight's avatar stand up and fight

    Mark my word as soon as Obama becomes president he will start working on ways to ban certain type of internet sites,like this one.Also he will try to change the law that allows a president to only keep office for no more than 8 years.
    We may lose some battles against those who disrespect are constitution but in the end we will win this war.We have the greatest weapon needed for victory and that is we have truth on our side.Fight on comrades ,do not despair patriots, for we have only just begun to fight.We are AMERICANS and we never give up!

    Eddy — I don’t think that’s true. See this link to Sun Yat Sen’s certificate of live birth from Hawaii, even though he was born in China….this was from 1870….well before Obama was reportedly born.

    http://sites.google.com/site/obamabirth/Home/obama-short-form-birth-certificate

  42. With respect to Sun-Yat-Sen’s Hawaiian Birth Certificate, and why it is probably genuine at the time (even though it was a fraud now), is that it was a way around the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882. Hawaii was then a territory.

    “SEC. 14. That hereafter no State court or court of the United States shall admit Chinese to citizenship; and all laws in conflict with this act are hereby repealed.”

    The famous case about American citizenship, Wong Kim Ark, was decided in 1898. In that decision, Wong Kim Ark was considered a U.S. Citizen on the grounds that he had a “genuine U.S. birth certificate,” and was therefore exempt from the Chinese Exclusion Act of 1882.

    Any Chinese who left the United States had to obtain certifications for reentry, and the Act made many immigrants permanent aliens by excluding them from U.S. Citizenship.

    Sun-Yat-Sen was probably looking for some insurance to get into the United States, or at least NOT be forceably removed from travel on an American passenger ship.

    The Hawaiians also had a grievance. They claimed that white businessmen from America colonized Hawaii and eventually conspired with the U.S. government to overthrow the native government.

    They said that the United States staged an armed military invasion in 1893 which overthrew the monarchy, and established a puppet regime.

    After a few years the puppet regime was able to get Hawaii annexed to the United States despite a written protest signed by nearly all ethnic Hawaiians.

    The America’s annexation of Hawaii in 1898 extended U.S. territory into the Pacific.

    Because Senator Akaka continues to remind the U.S. Senate of past abuses of Hawaii by the United States, especially towards the Hawaiian native language and culture.

    Senator Akaka has twice used the phrase “as long as Hawaii is a part of the United States,” suggesting that the time might come when Hawaii is no longer part of America.

    Many in the Senate view Senator Obama was a way to hea these wounds. So, they are not going to look into his birth certificate, if they can help it.

  43. John at 6:55am

    AGREED.

    Now that we have settled this, let’s ALL demand to see the actual certificate that includes among other things besides box 7c: Hospital name and address, Date and time, Doctors signature, etc. You know, the things that would help us all to believe that obama was actually born here in the US.

    That’s half the story. Then let’s hope the SCOTUS decides on the issue of natural born to two American citizen parents. That is the only logical sequence.

    Got to have both to put this to rest. Anything less and I WILL NOT recognize obama as my president.

  44. A little more research shows that Sun Yat-Sen made the claim that he actually was born in Hawaii, and that he used this document to enter the United States.

    http://www.asianamericanmedia.org/separatelivesbrokendreams/sunintro2.html

    Don’t forget, that it was the British who tried to overthrow Sun Yat-Sen in China, because he was trying to establish in China an American-style Republic, something he learned while living in Hawaii.

  45. Decent American – The law allowing registration of a foreign born person in limited circumstances was passed in 1982. Look it up yourself by going to the Hawaii legislature site on line and then to Hawaii Revised Statutes. If I can look if up in a few minutes, I can guarantee a congressional staff person could find it.

  46. Well, it’s official, NO Senator will challenge Obama’s votes on Jan8, 2009. When asked, most of them chuckled or said oh those crazy fringe people, they’re nuts! After these votes are officially counted in the next couple days, it’s over. He’s in. All of the calling, faxing and convincing didn’t change the mind of a single electors and no senator will stand up either. I think Ron Paul might be correct, no one that’s important cares!

  47. Vietnam Veteran in Wisconsin's avatar Vietnam Veteran in Wisconsin

    I got through to my Congressman’s office. The person I talked to wanted to know why I say Obama has hired 3 law firms to defend this. I said I’d call back with proof. What is the proof?

    He said all the lawsuits were against states and the AGs in each state defended the cases. He said it was costing tax payer money, not Obama’s.

    I want to prove this guy wrong. How do we know about 3 law firms. What are the names of the firms or the lawyers. How do we know how much was spent?

  48. Check out Orly’s site now…announcement on Broe vs. Reed you are gonna love it!

  49. Here is the body of a letter I expressed mailed today to each justice:

    Chief Justice John G. Roberts
    United States Supreme Court
    One First Street, NE
    Washington, D.C. 20543

    Re: Natural Born Citizen, Article II

    Honorable Chief Justice Roberts:

    Please consider the various applications before the Court to clarify for Congress and the people the meaning of the qualification for POTUS for “natural born citizen”. Please consider our founders’ intent as well as subsequent opinions and case law. One view is that ‘natural born’ was intended to assure our Commander in Chief never have divided allegiances.

    “Rep. Bingham commenting on Section 1992 said it means “every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen.” (Cong. Globe, 39th, 1st Sess., 1291 (1866))” P. A. Madison, Federalist Blog.

    Another view is that no law can impart the status of natural born, nor can it be imparted after the event of birth:
    “a natural-born citizen of the United States means those persons born whose father the United States already has an established jurisdiction over, i.e., born to father’s who are themselves citizens of the United States. A person who had been born under a double allegiance cannot be said to be a natural-born citizen of the United States because such status is not recognized (only in fiction of law). A child born to an American mother and alien father could be said to be a citizen of the United States by some affirmative act of law but never entitled to be a natural-born citizen because through laws of nature the child inherits the condition of their father.” P. A. Madison, Federalist Blog

    This issue is most urgent and pressing. If Congress or the Court allows an unqualified person to be President, they will have allowed an “usurper” to take office and will have disavowed their oath to defend the Constitution. Thank you for your consideration and for your service to the United States of America.

    Sincerely,

    “Bill G”

  50. Comment above is outdated material..oopps thought it was a new report.
    Brownback of Kansas has a really arrogant staffie.I held him down pretty hard on explaining to me why this affair was a “hoax”.I cited SR 511 and made him explain to me that if McCain was declared a NBC then using the same logic how is Obama also an NBC.He tried to tell me that the Constitution only required one citizen to be a US citizen.I asked him which amendment he referred to ..the 14th??? He started faltering bigtime.If you call any office today this would be a good one.I would not let him off the phone until he was told repeatedly by me to read the Constitution and check.

  51. AnotherFineMess's avatar AnotherFineMess

    I called the office of my local rep – I guess the staffer listened but he came back with a few comments that I couldn’t respond to – I told the guy I would call back, so perhaps you can help me come up with good answers to these:

    * He said that there’s no conclusive evidence (e.g. a foreign birth certificate, immigration documents ). All of the evidence I offered was “circumstantial” or at worst merely “speculation”.

    * He said that the Constitution gives states the right to determine who is and is not a natural born citizen of that state, hence if Hawaii says he is “natural born” – then no other state can re-determine Obam’s citizenship.

    * He said that it is silly to expect the congress or the senate to challenge a President Elect who has just won a landslide victory… it would be political suicide to attack Obama’s eligibility at the height of his popularity.

    * He thanked me for my time and suggested that I keep gathering evidence because if Obama’s popularity fades there would be plenty of Republicans who would be prepared to use hard, conclusive evidence.

    There’s quite a few issues there – I hope my friends here can help me come up with a suitable response to these questions before it is too late.

    Keep up the fight!

    Thanks

  52. I called everyone on the list from Bluesky.

    Zack Wamp replaced John Duncan
    Phil Roe replaced David Davis
    Someone, who I did not get his name, replaced Tancredo.

    I spoke politely to mostly staffers. Most seemed to have little real details. I literally told them many things they had not heard of. These people are not much more than the average sleeping American.

    Most would not make any comment about the situation. Curious.

    Generally, those that did talk, think there is not much to the story. It’s kinda sad how that our PC media has turned all this into tin foil hat talk.

    To me, this is all indicative of the real forces behind Obama to begin with.

    Ron Paul’s office is very concerned about Obama in the bigger picture — like with the economy and constitution. It’s the “little things” that create bigger things later, right?

    We are being quietly marshalled into the NAU. No question in my mind.

  53. I’m sorry to see people at this blog still being diverted by this whole birth certificate irrelevancy. The issue has moved beyond that stage. There have been enough scholarly articles written and items submitted online like the senate resolution bestowing the status of NBC to John McCain and voted on by obama, acknowledging that the very definition of NBC is an American born of two (2) American parents. That resolution resolves the question entirely for me. I don’t care where obama was born, in what hospital, or who delivered him. As long as his father was Kenyan, he can never be a NBC. That is why idiotic articles that misstate the arguments trying to minimalize the issue are printed. The media and the politicians ignore the issue, not out of ignorance but, because they know they cannot argue the law or the facts as they apply to obama. We are witnessing a blatant attempt to overthrow our Constitutional form of government. That is the only thing of historical significance about this election.

  55. Michael,

    The birth certificate has significance beyond Natural Born Citizen status. Should he have been born overseas or lost his citizenship, he is ineligible not only for the presidency, but also Congress. It also enables our immigration enforcers to deport him back to wherever he came from.

    The U.S. needs to set an example of “what not to do as a politician” in this case or it will set an acceptance level to foreign power and control over our nation.

  56. Concerned Citizen's avatar Concerned Citizen

    Anotherfinemess:

    Here are some answers for you:

    -It is true we do not have conclusive evidence about the place of Obama’s birth. This is because Obama has refused to release his long form birth certificate and has hired three law firms to fight all these law suits. Experts have reviewed the Certificate of Life Birth on Obama’s website and they claim that its authenticity is suspect.

    -Their statement that each state determines whether someone is a natural born citizen is completely false. The term natural born citizen is only mentioned once in the constitution, Article II, Section I, Clause 5 and here it states that the president must be a natural born citizen. It does not define what a natural born citizen is. The only authority that can determine this is the Supreme Court where there are several cases about this issue currently pending.

    -As far as the last point, Congress has an obligation to uphold the Constitution. This is what their oath of office is about. It does not matter if Obama won in a landslide. If he is not constitutionally eligible to serve, Congress has a duty to disqualify him. If people would have been informed about these issues during the election, Obama would not have won this election.

    I hope this helps you when speaking with the representatives office. It is very sad how ill informed these people are.

    I hope this helps you when speaking with the representatives office. It is very sad how ill informed these people are.

    It’s helpful to me, but I do not think that kind of talk is going to be effective in the context of a conversation with a busy congressional staffer. I think we need to tighten up our arguments: We need to be specific and simply stick to the evidence.

    It is true we do not have conclusive evidence about the place of Obama’s birth. This is because Obama has refused to release his long form birth certificate and has hired three law firms to fight all these law suits. Experts have reviewed the Certificate of Life Birth on Obama’s website and they claim that its authenticity is suspect.

    I need to find a way to say this that does not sound like conspiracy-theory:

    Naturally if people take a case against Obama he will hire specialist lawyers in his defense. That’s a fact but it’s not germane to the issue at hand.

    Obama’s refusal to produce documentation is suspicious but not conclusive. Unfortunately this is just circumstantial evidence again.

    The best point here is the review of documents: I think we need to be spesific about which experts did the review and explain how they were qualified to make this assessment.

    Unless we can show that the experts are credentialed authorities on birth-certificate authenticity then their opinion counts for nothing.

    Their statement that each state determines whether someone is a natural born citizen is completely false. The term natural born citizen is only mentioned once in the constitution, Article II, Section I, Clause 5 and here it states that the president must be a natural born citizen.

    I’m no constitutional law expert, so I can only paraphrase what I have been told: I was informed that it is up to the individual states to determine the status of any citizen for whom they issue documentation.

    For example, if the state of Arizona (where I live) wishes to determine if I am a citizen they can contact the state of Texas (where I was born) and ask the relevant authorities. The state of Texas has the obligation to keep truthful and accurate records of citizens born in that state. If the state of Texas says I’m a Texan by birth then there’s nothing anybody in Arizona can say or do to dispute that.

    This potentially opens a possibility of some kind of fraud-case against the state of Hawaii: Supposing the state were to mis-represent Obama’s birth-status that would almost certainly be a felony, however once again we face the problem of lack of evidence:

    How can we prove that the state of Hawaii has lied? All we have is circumstantial evidence, which unfortunately is not going to convince anybody.

    The only authority that can determine this is the Supreme Court where there are several cases about this issue currently pending.

    I hope this is not the case: If SCOTUS is the only authority that can determine this then by definition it cannot be determined by Congress.

    Any staffer is just going to say that it’s premature to take any action until the Supreme Court has determined what it means to be “natural born” – it’s fair to say that nobody is 100% sure since the meaning had to be re-defined in the case of McCain who was born on an overseas military-base.

    I’d avoid this line of argument if possible, because it’s guaranteed to loose the debate.

    If he is not constitutionally eligible to serve, Congress has a duty to disqualify him.

    I think the fundamental point here is that Congress is not going to do it’s duty unless we provide much stronger evidence:

    Is my Congressman going to risk his career based on circumstantial evidence alone? Heck no, but if I provide him with hard evidence things might be different.

This is a joke and I doubt very seriously any of our Point of Order Petitons will ever even be looked at??? What are we to do next??? This is all so frustrating. I got into it on the phone big time with the John McCain staffer!!! Here’s a copy of my letter sent to all three senators and one Congresswoman………………………………………

    Dear Senator XXXXXXX,
    Being a concerned citizen of the United States of America I am using my right to “petition for redress of grievances” as preserved under the 1st Amendment of the Constitution in objecting to the election of Barack H. Obama II to the office of President of the United States of America. It is my understanding that this right to petition has constitutional force over any breach of the Constitution (or laws). As one of several elected officials from the State of Nevada…….and my voice in Washington D.C., I am requesting that you object on January 8, 2009 and there after in prohibiting Mr. Obama from becoming President Elect of our great nation. The reason for this objection is that Mr. Obama is not qualified/eligible for this job per the requirement of being “natural born” and this is certainly a breach of our sacred Constitution!

    Please use my enclosed document submitted with this letter on my behalf and know that you took an oath of office to uphold the Constitution. It is my right and your duty to demand that Mr. Obama prove he is a “natural born” citizen and qualified to be the President of the United States. This proof is of grave importance if he is to assume the highest office in our country. He must, under law, show “we the people” using legitimate and appropriate documentation…… that he is without a doubt a “natural born” citizen of the United States of America. I along with millions of other concerned citizens believe he is not!!! Please study the Constitution and I am sure you too will come to the realization that Mr. Obama never was and never will be eligible to operate as President of the United States of America as set forth by our founding fathers and the framers of our precious Constitution.

    Please demonstrate to me that you have taken your job as Senator of the United States seriously. I thank you for your service to our country and expect you to comply with your duty as a Senator because the Constitution also tells us…….If any man violates the Constitution then I, as a citizen of the United States of America can bring to the government any violation of the Constitution and it shall be made right. Therefore…. through my Petition for Point of Order provided for you here I request your representation of my objection on January 8, 2009 and thereafter.

    This is serious business and I can not reiterate enough times the importance in making certain that we are electing a qualified person to the highest office in our land.

    Thank you for your help and I look forward to hearing from you and will take comfort in knowing that you will honor your oath of office this January 8, 2009 and there after. If you do not make this objection and Barack H. Obama II is allowed to take the oath of office on January 20, 2009 he will have become nothing more than a USURPER (removable by force) and you will have been a party to the breach of our Constitution which is punishable by law! Please do not suppose you are above the law concerning this because you are not!!!

    Best regards,

    I voted Dem (nj_dem) all my life until 2008 when I opened my eyes and saw this guy’s background. Then I realized he was fighting awfully hard and spending hundreds of thousands of dollars just to avoid showing a copy of his original birth certificate. Why?

    What would you do if you were being sued and all you had to do was show a copy of your original birth certificate? Would you show it or would you hide it?

    Nancy Pelosi, a former member of the Socialist Party in the USA, knows Obama is not eligible to be prez under the Constitution. So does Bill Richardson (he referred to Obama as an immigrant) – hmmm … maybe that’s why he is no longer being considered as Commerce Secretary? Of course no one would state THAT as the reason!

    Please open your eyes. Only 25% of the country voted for Obama. The rest either voted for McCain or didn’t vote at all. Walk into a large room full of people and know that 3 out of every 4 people DID NOT vote for Obama! So don’t think that you are in the majority of Americans. The 75% who did not vote for him obviously didn’t want to or they would have.

    The people have not spoken, only the sheeple have. Open your eyes. There is much to learn from Citizen Wells and the intelligent people who write here.

  63. Good Morning, Citizen Wells:

    Thanks for all your hard work to expose the truth about Barack Obama. I appreciate you much.

    Congress Meets to Count Electoral Votes

  64. Michael;
    You need to educate yourself.

    The “resolution” of the senate, passed last April, 2008, declaring John McCain to be eligible for the presidency was meaningless. A “resolution” has no force of law, it only indicates the “sense” of the senate, which of itself, in this instance, is a sad commentary.

    In any event, no statute, even one signed by the President having the force of law, can override or supercede the Constitution, as the Constitution is “the supreme law of the land”.

    FYI, “a natural born citizen” has been defined over and over and over again and again, by both the supreme court and the people who promoted and supported the 14th amendment, which sets forth terms for citizenship, but does NOT override the requirements for “natural born citizenship”.

    I called the office of my local rep – I guess the staffer listened but he came back with a few comments that I couldn’t respond to – I told the guy I would call back, so perhaps you can help me come up with good answers to these:

    * He said that there’s no conclusive evidence (e.g. a foreign birth certificate, immigration documents ). All of the evidence I offered was “circumstantial” or at worst merely “speculation”.

    * He said that the Constitution gives states the right to determine who is and is not a natural born citizen of that state, hence if Hawaii says he is “natural born” – then no other state can re-determine Obam’s citizenship.

    * He said that it is silly to expect the congress or the senate to challenge a President Elect who has just won a landslide victory… it would be political suicide to attack Obama’s eligibility at the height of his popularity.

    * He thanked me for my time and suggested that I keep gathering evidence because if Obama’s popularity fades there would be plenty of Republicans who would be prepared to use hard, conclusive evidence.

    There’s quite a few issues there – I hope my friends here can help me come up with a suitable response to these questions before it is too late.

    Keep up the fight!

    Thanks
    ______________

    Well, so they’re prepared with some inept arguments. At least they’re a little different from the old ones.

    To wit, I would respond thusly:

    1. Obama refuses to provide any corroborating evidence to the worthless Certification of Live Birth.
    2. Hawaii has never said Obama is natural born, in fact Hawaii has never said Obama was even born in Hawaii. They say they hold “a” birth certificate, and as we all know Hawaii will register a birth certificate from anywhere, and issue a Certification of Live Birth to anyone from anywhere. Every hospital in the state says his mother was never a patient there.

    3. This is about our Constitution, it’s not a popularity contest, and political suicide is nothing compared to patriots who’ve given up their very lives for the sake of country. The spirit and intent of the Constitution is to prevent a usurpation, which is exactly what is happening here. Hitler also ran and won by a landslide! (Wow what nerve!)

    4. This is also not about Republicans, it IS about our REPUBLIC and we are CITIZENS who seek to defend it.

    This pissant really pisses me off, that he’d have been prepped to put off concerned callers with such nonsense!

  66. Convinced a lot of Congressmen, didn’t we?

  67. There is not one of our elected or appointed officials who had the testicular fortitude to at least ask the simple question of whether or not Soetoro is Constitutionally Qualified. Each and every one of them should be fired; however, that is just my simple minded opinion.

    see following link:
    http://www.indonesiamatters.com/2952/barry-soetoro/

  68. Patriot said: “Convinced a lot of Congressmen, didn’t we?”

    Perhaps they’re not convinced we’ll not take any action against their sorry behinds when this is all said and done.

    They completely ignored us. Ignorance will not be taken lightly by the Patriots of this country. We don’t like being ignored on serious Constitutional issues like this one.

    They were not wise in irritating just and concerned Patriots like ourselves who idolize political role models like Washington, Madison, Hamilton, Franklin, and countless other forefathers.

    And you see just how “well” Britain fared against our founding Patriots…

  69. However I did get a chance to review the article in the Washington Post citing California had 55 votes, which should have invalidated the results due to the fact one of them was dead…go figure…God Bless America, our elected officials should hang their heads in disgrace…and run for the hills…they are a disgrace to America and now we are the laughing stock of the World…sorry fellow patiriots…

    God Bless our Troops and all those who are fighting for our lives and rights in this Great Country of ours.

  70. Looks like our esteemed legislators watched the mesmerizing Obama speeches.

  71. There is a Petition for Redress of Grievances at the texas darlin blog sight. It is quite thorough.

  72. Congress knew exactly what they were doing. Let’s recap:

    S. 2128 Natural Born Citizen Act (feb 2004)

    S. 2678 Children of Military Families Natural Born Citizen Act (Feb 2008)

    SR 511 McCain Eligibility (May 2008)

    If Obama is going down, the rest of them are going down with the ship, and that Iceberg is rapidly approaching. All we have to do is ask why they did nothing, and the truth will unfold.

    I have an idea on this:

    Congress did nothing because this isn’t the first time they’ve turned the other way regarding his citizenship.

    the Natural Born Citizen Act 2128 was created to allow naturalized and adopted citizens to be defined as “natural born”. Sound familar? I would think so considering this was the same time Obama was campaigning for Senator of Illinois.

  73. I’ve always wondered about the real meaning behind Don McLean’s lyrics in American Pie. The melody is resonating in my head and some of the words now seem to have significance.

    http://www.musiclyricsfyi.com/american-pie-lyrics.htm

    American Pie lyrics have been debated since the song was released in 1971 by singer-songwriter Don McLean. Some have said the American Pie lyrics are about Buddy Holly and other iconic music figures from McLean’s past. Others have said the American Pie lyrics were written clearly as an attack on the Vietnam War at the time.
    Still others say both camps are correct. Don McLean himself has stated that the song is autobiographical and documents his impressions of the decline in music from the 1950s to the 1960s, from lighter to darker in theme. “The day the music died” is a reference to a 1959 plane crash causing the deaths of Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and J. P. Richardson, Jr. (The Big Bopper).
    There are many other interpretations to the American Pie lyrics such as parts of the song refers Bob Dylan, The Beatles and The Byrds. Other lyrics in American Pie supposedly refer to nuclear war, the Apocalypse and other religious themes. Don McLean has been famously coy and aloof when it has come to discussing the different interpretations of his song. So, it is up to you, dear reader to read the lyrics and come up with your own interpretation to this famous and mysterious song.

    American Pie Lyrics
    A long, long time ago…
    I can still remember
    How that music used to make me smile.
    And I knew if I had my chance
    That I could make those people dance
    And, maybe, they’d be happy for a while.
    But February made me shiver
    With every paper I’d deliver.
    Bad news on the doorstep;
    I couldn’t take one more step.
    I can’t remember if I cried
    When I read about his widowed bride,
    But something touched me deep inside
    The day the music died.
    So bye-bye, Miss American Pie.
    Drove my Chevy to the levee,
    But the levee was dry.
    And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
    Singin’, “this’ll be the day that I die.
    “this’ll be the day that I die.”
    Did you write the book of love,
    And do you have faith in God above,
    If the Bible tells you so?
    Do you believe in rock ‘n roll,
    Can music save your mortal soul,
    And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
    Well, I know that you’re in love with him
    `cause I saw you dancin’ in the gym.
    You both kicked off your shoes.
    Man, I dig those rhythm and blues.
    I was a lonely teenage broncin’ buck
    With a pink carnation and a pickup truck,
    But I knew I was out of luck
    The day the music died.
    I started singin’,
    “bye-bye, Miss American Pie.”
    Drove my Chevy to the levee,
    But the levee was dry.
    Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
    And singin’, “this’ll be the day that I die.
    “this’ll be the day that I die.”
    Now for ten years we’ve been on our own
    And moss grows fat on a rollin’ stone,
    But that’s not how it used to be.
    When the jester sang for the king and queen,
    In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
    And a voice that came from you and me,
    Oh, and while the king was looking down,
    The jester stole his thorny crown.
    The courtroom was adjourned;
    No verdict was returned.
    And while Lennon read a book of Marx,
    The quartet practiced in the park,
    And we sang dirges in the dark
    The day the music died.
    We were singing,
    “bye-bye, Miss American Pie.”
    Drove my Chevy to the levee,
    But the levee was dry.
    Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
    And singin’, “this’ll be the day that I die.
    “this’ll be the day that I die.”
    Helter skelter in a summer swelter.
    The birds flew off with a fallout shelter,
    Eight miles high and falling fast.
    It landed foul on the grass.
    The players tried for a forward pass,
    With the jester on the sidelines in a cast.
    Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
    While the sergeants played a marching tune.
    We all got up to dance,
    Oh, but we never got the chance!
    `cause the players tried to take the field;
    The marching band refused to yield.
    Do you recall what was revealed
    The day the music died?
    We started singing,
    “bye-bye, Miss American Pie.”
    Drove my Chevy to the levee,
    But the levee was dry.
    Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
    And singin’, “this’ll be the day that I die.
    “this’ll be the day that I die.”
    Oh, and there we were all in one place,
    A generation lost in space
    With no time left to start again.
    So come on: jack be nimble, jack be quick!
    Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
    Cause fire is the devil’s only friend.
    Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
    My hands were clenched in fists of rage.
    No angel born in hell
    Could break that satan’s spell.
    And as the flames climbed high into the night
    To light the sacrificial rite,
    I saw satan laughing with delight
    The day the music died
    He was singing,
    “bye-bye, Miss American Pie.”
    Drove my Chevy to the levee,
    But the levee was dry.
    Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
    And singin’, “this’ll be the day that I die.
    “this’ll be the day that I die.”
    I met a girl who sang the blues
    And I asked her for some happy news,
    But she just smiled and turned away.
    I went down to the sacred store
    Where I’d heard the music years before,
    But the man there said the music wouldn’t play.
    And in the streets: the children screamed,
    The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.
    But not a word was spoken;
    The church bells all were broken.
    And the three men I admire most:
    The father, son, and the holy ghost,
    They caught the last train for the coast
    The day the music died.
    And they were singing,
    “bye-bye, Miss American Pie.”
    Drove my Chevy to the levee,
    But the levee was dry.
    And them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
    Singin’, “this’ll be the day that I die.
    “this’ll be the day that I die.”
    They were singing,
    “bye-bye, Miss American Pie.”
    Drove my Chevy to the levee,
    But the levee was dry.
    Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye
    Singin’, “this’ll be the day that I die.”

    S. 2128 Natural Born Citizen Act (feb 2004) did not become law.

    The most one could say is that some people tried to make it so.

    Keep to the LAWs on the books! The Constitution and amendments thereto are the LAW.

  76. natural born Wa,

    The point is they tried and failed. That says two things:

    1. They understood Constitution Law well enough to want to change it for political reasons.

    2. They knew it was Unconstitutional and didn’t pass it.

    And so they allow an inelible candidate through the front door. What does that tell you?

  77. Cheney did not follow the constitution, it appears, he did NOT ask for any objections.

    there are grounds , it appears. to throw out the whole ratification process and hold this arrogant Congress accountable !!! Will some smart attorney ask for emergency stay on this obvious obstruction and failure to follow the Constitution?

  78. Objections must be in writing. If none were received, then the VP has no one to recognize to make an objection.

  79. BHO is not “going down”

    There is no provision in law for any court to stop his assuming the presidency now that Congress has certified the election (nor can that certification be challenged in any court).

    The only way to remove BHO now is to impeach him after the 20th.

    And if Clinton couldn’t be removed for lying under oath directly to our faces (with political hacks telling us that was “no big deal,”) there’s absolutely no chance BHO will be impeached.

    Impeachement is a political decision, not a technical one.

  80. Time to start the RECALL PETITIONS!

  81. CW – This is so important, maybe it should be a main article? We are own worst enemy.

    Patriots All:

    Please consider this very carefully. I think it is our ONLY hope. We need to decouple our concerns as much as possible from Obama in a specific way, and focus like a laser beam on “process”.

    To the extent that we focus on Obama we will get no attention and no respect. We will be pigeon-holed as sore losers and whiners. In that regard, the conservatives need to understand that, ideologically and capability-wise, Obama is not known to be any worse than Jimmy Carter. On the flip side a fair number (even most?) liberals feel that Obama is no worse (and probably a lot better) than Bush 43 or Richard Nixon.

    There is time for political contests and time for reconciliation. There is time for cooperation and there is time for loyal opposition. Just as there has always been and always will be. But if we cannot separate this normal pushing and shoving of politics from dealing with a constitutional crises, then nobody is served well.

    Here, without reference to the specifics of the current situation, are the issues – the clear and present danger.

    1. DOMESTIC – We are a constitutional republic, not an unconstrained democracy. On one hand we cherish the idea than anyone can become president, but on the other hand they have to achieve this in a constitutionally sanctioned manner. It is also a fundamental aspect of The American Way that all such momentous decisions and elections are conducted in an open and auditable manner. There is no specific class of Americans who are uniquely assigned the role of “constitutional police”. It is the responsibility and duty of all of us to do this. Not just congress, not just government agencies, not just the courts, and not just the mainstream media. One of the essential purposes of the first amendment is so that a fee and open dialog is ongoing among all types of Americans everywhere. It is therefore not only important, but paramount, that no relevant raw data is withheld from the people. It amounts to censorship and the curtailment of free speech when we are denied data and open government processes. We must insist on our constitutional right to be fully informed. We cannot accept (in fact, we are duty bound to reject) any public office which is filled by secrecy and subterfuge.

    2. FOREIGN – One of the facts of a constitution which guarantees transparent and open government, is that foreign powers can witness our government and our processes in-action. Whenever anything is veiled in secrecy (whether a military situation or a civilian situation), such foreigners can only assume that something suspicious is happening. While such secrecy is necessary in some circumstances, it is hardly ever warranted in civilian situations. This is especially damaging in situations where a process is constitutionally required to be open and has historically always been so. If we do not follow a process (especially one meant to protect us from internal corruption), outsiders looking in now discover a weakness and are given a strong hint how to exploit it. So we can only conclude that besides whatever negatives accrue directly and immediately from the break in process, we have poisoned the water for years to come. And more urgently, if specific information is being hidden during a current process that could affect the outcome, we have set up the winner (and all he represents – i.e. the whole country) for certain blackmail.

    So, to come full circle to the instant circumstance, regardless of popular votes, regardless of “change we can believe in”, regardless of racial issues, regardless of economic and social agendas, Mr. Obama must go through the same process as every other presidential hopeful. He must be shown to be constitutionally eligible (burden of proof to rest on him, not the naysayers), and the relevant documentation made available to the public.

    Irrespective of political affiliation we all need to insist on this and to agree to let the chips fall where they may. If Obama is determined eligible via this open process then all parties and all segments of society need to come together to work together to make the best possible good of his presidency. This will insure the best good for America, as a whole. And if he is not eligible, then we all need to get behind the constitutional provisions for remedying such a situation.

    But above all – no more whining and no more accusations. This is not a personal issue with Obama. (Besides, the election is over – as of yesterday – and Obama is right now officially President Elect.) This is a constitutional issue in regards the whole of America and The American Way.

    (And, yes, I realize our adversarial judicial system requires perpetrators and victims. I am not so much complaining about court cases, but the majority of postings by concerned and/or overwrought citizens.)

  82. Just received from Ed Noonan, Chairman, America’s Independent Party:

    Rahm Emmanuels, Obama’s chief of Staff states what is the secret-no-longer-Bilderberg plan for us by recently stating:
    “We liberals are not the least bit concerned about the economy, not because it isn’t every bit as bad as you’ve heard, but precisely because we believe it is.
    You see, we finally have a chance to implement our ideas on a grand scale.
    We’ve helped brew the perfect storm by imposing policies that largely led to the mortgage meltdown and scapegoating corporations for them, thereby demonizing and discrediting the free market to the point that full-blown government solutions are now plausible rather than political suicide.
    We are not sorry for our current predicament, but elated about it.
    In our view, the ends always justify the means, so what’s a little widespread economic hardship en route to our grand vision for an America where we are in power and we get to pick winners and losers?
    And by the way, all that stuff we said about the growing deficits and national debt under Republican administrations was important, but not in the way you think.
    It was important for us to get elected, but now that we have been, we can be honest and tell you that a growing debt is just another necessary means to the end of expanding government power.
    We are giddy about the reported $1 trillion deficit because it gives us a license for more of the same — and then some.
    Next stop, nationalized health care.”

  83. I recently read a posting on a website wherein the poster described a truth which to date I have not yet heard anyone talking about. The person who posted this could be exactly right.
    After giving birth to BHO in Kenya, Stanley Anne D.Obama left Kenya to return to Hawaii with her newborn. Because there were no direct flights in those days she opted to use Sea Tac International Airport as a Port of Entry. Upon arriving there she filled out US Customs papers-INS Forms, upon which she provided the name of her infant(Barack Hussein Obama), and at the appropriate place on the form provided his birth place. (Kenya). It seems to me that recovering this document would provide everything that all of us have been looking for. It would be the Holy Grail, because it is signed by Obama’s own MOTHER. I think that if a certified copy of this data was put into the hands of Chief Justice Roberts there would be some definite action on the part of the SCOTUS. They could not ignore it and get away with it.

  84. In adding to my first comment it would seem that somebody(preferrably a trained researcher of government archives) should jump on this quickly, because if the Obama GOON squad gets wind of the existence of such documents they will be history in a matter of minutes.

  85. I’m a registered Republican and I couldn’t care if Obama is from Mars. We have too many other important issues facing us today. Whether Obama was born in the US or Timbuktoo we’re better off with his vision and level head than we are with anything else at this point. It’s time to stop crying that McCain and Palin weren’t elected and move on and get this country back on track. Even though I’m a Republican and born and raised in New York I don’t see anybody more qualified and with the temperment to get the job done other than Obama. Our founding fathers who wrote and signed the constitution weren’t born in the USA either. Most of them were from Britain. They wrote a special “exemption” for THEMSELVES so that they could be President if they were elected simply because they helped to write the constitution. Look it up. I watched a special on the History Channel on it just a couple of nights ago. Talk about double standards. They put into the constitution something they couldn’t even live up to but they didn’t destroy the country did they? Let’s get on with getting this country back to normalcy if that is at all possible.

  86. Chuck.
    Are you serious?
    Qualified?
    To do what?
    Bring more corruption to Washington.
    Overturn the US Constitution.
    This “person” has done nothing but posture himself to steal the presidency
    his entire adult life. He is the poster child for the “me, me, me” mentality group.

  87. Oldsalt 76……

    Ed Hale and others seem to be working on obtaining that record –he hosts the Plains Radio.

    I believe the divorce papers of Ann and Obama gave the name, Stanley Ann D. Obama that allowed the port of entry records to be discovered under that name.

  88. Chuck?? What have you been drinking??

  89. Jacqlyn Smith's avatar Jacqlyn Smith

    Chuck—-We wouldn’t be in this position in the first place if Obama were honest and transparent as he promised! Now you want us law abiding citizens to just lay down and give up because you believe Obama seems level headed and gives a good speech once in a while….please what country did you say you were from???? I want to know who this man is and where he came from and our elected officials have an obligation to make sure of it!!!!! It shouldn’t matter what party you support…..we are all Americans!

    This “person” has done nothing but posture himself to steal the presidency

    Ok that’s the wildest thing I’ve heard you say CW.

    How has he been posturing to STEAL an election? Explain to me why, by your standards, Bush didn’t do the same thing in 2000? I seem to recall the votes being closer in that election. PLEASE give detail as to how he planned on stealing it? It really should be known. Also where do you get this “mememe” generation crap you keep repeating like a broken record but not backing up with quotes from him to suggest what you are saying is anything but a load of crap?

  91. Judy Frank- Glad to hear that somebody is pursuing the INS records. If a certified copy of that should be placed in the hands of Chief Justice Roberts, he might have a little incentive to act,because the INS record will bear the signature of Obama’s own mother. Pretty hard to ignore that one.

  92. Jacqlyn – I must admit that your comment about Obama being ” honest and transparent ” is one that needs to be tossed in the ” circular file ” – if you know what I mean. When is the last time you knew of a politician ( actually not ALL of them – there might be one or two that are ) that was honest and transparent. Those are contradictions in terms when it comes to politics. There is no such thing anymore. As for whether Obama is level-headed or not and has the temperment for the job; I’d say he’s done – for the most part – a good job of choosing his cabinet and there seems to be agreement from both sides of the aisle on this as per the interviews and statements by both Dems and Reps. If Bush ( who I voted for both of his terms, by the way ) and his ” honest and transparent ” partners in crime on all levels had been truthful and put our country first after 9/11 them MAYBE we wouldn’t be in this mess now – but who knows. The way our system works today is, us ” law abiding ” citizens have to choose which non-transparent and dishonest politician ( forget about the “law abiding” part ) sounds the best to us. Look how ” transparency ” led the WORLD to the biggest economic crisis since the great depression. It wasn’t transparency that got us here but rather non-transparency. I also like one of the other comments above about Obama bringing more corruption to Washington. Is that POSSIBLE?
    I don’t think you can fit anymore corruption into this den of iniquity.
    Am I angy? I think you know the answer to this. Am I American? I was born and raised here in New York State and I’m proud to be an American and I’m D****ED proud of our men and women serving in harms way in the wars we’re involved in. But I’m sick and tired of the division in this country that is destroying us from the inside first and working itself outward. ” A house divided against itself cannot stand. ” Abraham Lincoln – 1858
