“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans

“Live free or die.”…New Hampshire state motto

 The mainstream media and the US Justice Department have been protecting Obama since 2008. In the LTC Terry Lakin Court Martial last year, Judge Denise Lind addressed the opening up of evidence about Obama’s eligibility in this manner:  “opening up such evidence could be an “embarrassment” to the president.” An embarassment means that he is not president.

More states are addresing the issue of vetting presidential candidates during the election cycle. New Hampshire is one of those states.

From the New Hampshire Journal March 9, 2011.

“Presidential candidates who want to be on New Hampshire’s primary ballot next year may have to produce a birth certificate under a proposal being brought before a state House committee.

Election Law Chairman David Bates said his committee will consider a bill Wednesday to require candidates to provide a birth certificate and affidavit swearing they are at least 35 years old and have lived in the United States for 14 years, as called for in the U.S. Constitution to qualify for the presidency.

“They need to produce a certified copy of the long form of their birth certificate and an affidavit swearing to residency,” the Windham Republican said Tuesday.

New Hampshire holds the earliest presidential primaries and takes pride that its voters help launch contenders toward the White House.
Bates said the purpose of the bill is to ensure that only those truly qualified for the presidency are on the ballot. He emphasized that the measure was not aimed at President Barack Obama, and said he may seek to make the bill effective in 2013 after the next election. If New Hampshire sought to make the requirement effective immediately, “then we’ll have a circus,” he predicted.

Meanwhile, House Republican Leader D.J. Bettencourt issued a statement against the measure.

“It is unnecessary and detracts from important business, namely our economy,” he said. “Moreover, this potential amendment could represent a threat to our first in the nation primary as it gives other states reason and desire to try to jump us in line.””

Uphold your oath and duty or get the hell out of office!

From Macon.com March 2, 2011.

“A bill signed by 94 state House members would require all presidential and vice presidential candidates to present a birth certificate to the Georgia Secretary of State’s Office before they can be put on the statewide ballot.

The Presidential Eligibility Assurance Act, House Bill 401, would demand of each candidate a long-form birth certificate, a sworn statement that the candidate has never been a citizen of another country and a confirmation that the candidate has lived in the U.S. for the previous 14 years.

 During the 2008 presidential elections, allegations were raised that then-candidate Barack Obama was not a U.S. citizen, which spurred him to release documentation from Hawaii confirming his birth in that state.

Rep. Mark Hatfield, R-Waycross, the lead author on the bill, is skeptical of the documentation.

The document is a certificate of live birth from the state of Hawaii, valid for use in court proceedings and is considered by Hawaii a legitimate birth certificate.

But Hatfield called on Obama to release the actual piece of paper issued at his 1961 birth.

“I’m saying I don’t know where Obama was born,” said Hatfield. “It’s not just an Obama question.

It seeks to fill the void left by Congress” in enforcing Article II of the Constitution on presidential eligibility.”

An update from Birther Report March 11, 2011.

“GA House Bill HB401 presidential eligibility bill will be changed to protect Obama from having to comply in the 2012 presidential election. Effective date to be changed to July 2013, after the 2012 presidential election. This was announced by GA Rep Hatfield on a radio show appearance last night. Contact GA Rep Hatfield for more details on his proposed language changes to GA HB401.”

From commenter da verg on March 11, 2011.

“ok
people listen up
need a massive run for the GA house leadership, here is response i got back
from rep supporting the bill
Please understand that I am dealing with recalcitrant leadership which will not allow the bill to move through the committee process. We are trying to get the bill dislodged from subcommittee, and this proposal was made in an attempt to get the House leadership to allow the bill to be considered. The bill would not be required to stay in this form, but we have to try something to get the bill moving. If we don’t get some movement right away, the bill will be dead for the year. You don’t need to convince me that Obama needs to be subject to a law requiring proof of eligibility; I believe it wholeheartedly and have been actively advocating for it for years. Your efforts would be better spent contacting the leadership of the Georgia House and demanding that the bill be allowed to move. Nothing short of massive public outcry is going to get their attention it seems. I would appreciate your efforts and continued support of the bill.”

Georgia of all places. What the hell is wrong with people in this country!

“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans

“Guard against the impostures of pretended patriotism.”

“Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples’ liberty’s teeth.”

“The Constitution is the guide which I never will abandon.”

“Truth will ultimately prevail where there is pains to bring it to light.”

George Washington

Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Justice John Jay, on
July 25, 1787, wrote the following to George Washington:

“Permit me to hint, whether it would be wise and seasonable to provide
a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration
of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the commander
in chief of the American army shall not be given to, nor devolve on any
but a natural born citizen.”

One expects  socialist, anti American and anti Constitution remarks and positions from the modern day Democrat Party. Now many of the Republicans are following suit. Consider these disgusting examples from John Boehner, Mike Huckabee and now Sarah Palin who are apparently RINO’s.

It is one thing to be ignorant or apathetic about Obama’s history and eligibility. It is quite another to refer to presidential eligibility as being extraneous or a distraction. This is a total disregard for the US Constitution and we will not tolerate it!

Mike Huckabee Obama eligibility extraneous, US Constitution extraneous, Huckabee book interview

“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans

Mike Huckabee was recently interviewed by George Stephanopoulos  about his book “A Simple Government.” During the interview Huckabee was asked about the controversy about Obama’s citizenship. Mike Huckabee committed 2 unforgiveable errors.

  • Instead of correcting George Stephanopoulos about using citizen interchangeably with natural born citizen, he followed the Orwellian line.
  • Huckabee then stated that the issue was extraneous, effectively stating that the natural born citizen clause and the US Constitution are extraneous.

This will not be tolerated.

I am requesting that you send this far and wide and bombard Mike Huckabee and the Republican party with our response to this unacceptable behaviour. We will no longer tolerate this disregard for the US Constitution and rule of law.

Let’s make an example out of Mike Huckabee. Perhaps the others will then take notice.

“And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed
–if all records told the same tale–then the lie passed into
history and became truth. “Who controls the past,” ran the
Party slogan, “controls the future: who controls the present
controls the past.”…George Orwell, “1984″

John Boehner has failed Constitution 101. He is still using citizen interchangeably with natural born citizen.

From the Chicago Tribune February 13, 2011.

“Speaker John Boehner said Sunday that he believed President Obama was a U.S. citizen and a Christian but that it wasn’t up to him to convince people who were skeptical of the president’s birthplace and religion.

“I believe that the president is a citizen. I believe the president is a Christian. I’ll take him at his word,” said Boehner, appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Boehner spoke after viewing a video of a Republican focus group in Iowa in which a number of people indicated that they believed Obama was a Muslim.

“As speaker of the House, as a leader, do you not think it’s your responsibility to speak out against that kind of ignorance?” asked the host, David Gregory.

 “David, it’ not my job to tell the American people what to think,” Boehner replied. “The American people have the right to think what they want to think.””

From Citizen Wells January 12, 2011.

The US Constitution was read in the House of Representatives last week. As I understand it, Constitution 101 classes will be held for congressmen. Some members of Congress, including John Boehner, may have to do some remedial work including stay after class. The same day that the Constitution was read, John Boehner used the word citizen and natural born citizen interchangeably. He also exhibited ignorance regarding proof of Obama’s birthplace.

Last Friday, after responding to Speaker Boehner’s remarks on this blog, I contacted his office regarding his gaffe. I am not aware of a correction or apology from John Boehner.

Speaker Boehner, you owe the American people an apology and you need to issue a corrected statement in response to Brian Williams’ questions. You also need to learn the truth about Obama’s eligibility issues. I am certain I and others can find the time to assist you.

John Boehner, you just took the oath and read the US Constitution! The requirement for president is not citizen! It is Natural Born Citizen! And while we are at it, the State of Hawaii has not verified that Obama was born there!

From The Hill January 6, 2011.

“An individual who believes President Obama wasn’t born in the United States interrupted a House reading Thursday of the U.S. Constitution.”

“Birthers accuse Obama of not having been born in the U.S., despite the release of his birth certificate showing that he was born in Hawaii.”

“Update, 3:51 p.m.: In an interview to air this evening on NBC Nightly News, House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) reacted to the outburst and said he believed Obama is a U.S. citizen.
“The state of Hawaii has said that President Obama was born there,” Boehner said. “That’s good enough for me.””

Ezra Klein, Constitution has no binding power, Text confusing, 112th Congress reads US Constitution

Ezra Klein, Constitution has no binding power, Text confusing, 112th Congress reads US Constitution

Ezra Klein of the Washington Post was interviewed on MSNBC. He was asked to respond to the 112th Congress reading the US Constitution on January 6, 2011. His response, though stupefying, was consistent with the attitudes of the left and what would be expected from an associate of the Washington Post.

In the interview he states:

“it has no binding power on anything.”

“The text is confusing”

Ezra Klein, which of these provisions of the US Constitution do you consider confusing and non binding?

“Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

“Amendment XV

Section 1.
The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude–”

“Amendment XIX

The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.”

Ezra Klein, after being bombarded with responses to his idiotic statements, posted a “clarification” of his remarks. The problem I mostly have with Mr. Klein is his cavalier attitude in regard to the US Constitution. He must have a great many followers on the left.

“This morning, I gave a quick interview to MSNBC where I made, I thought, some fairly banal points on the GOP’s plan to honor the Constitution by having it read aloud on the House floor. Asked if it was a gimmick, I replied that it was, because, well, it is. It’s our founding document, not a spell that makes the traitors among us glow green. It’s also, I noted, a completely nonbinding act: It doesn’t impose a particular interpretation of the Constitution on legislators, and will have no practical impact on how they legislate.”

“But my inbox suggests that my comments weren’t taken that way: The initial interpretation was that I’d said the Constitution is too complicated to understand because it was written a long time ago, and then, as the day went on, that I’d said the document itself is nonbinding. I went back and watched the clip — or at least the part someone clipped and sent me, which is above — and thought I was clear enough. But when a lot of people misunderstand you at once, the fault is usually yours. So if I was unclear: Yes, the Constitution is binding. No, it’s not clear which interpretation of the Constitution the Supreme Court will declare binding at any given moment.”

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/ezra-klein/2010/12/yes_the_constitution_is_bindin.html

Yes, Ezra Klein, the fault is yours. And once again, which provision is ok for you or the Supreme Court to declare not binding?

Ezra Klein, welcome the the US Constitution Hall of Shame.

Supreme Court Justice Scalia will teach the first class of Constitution 101.

Justice Scalia, would you please spend a little extra time on the Natural Born Citizen provision in the Constitution.

From the Citizen Wells US Constitution Hall of Shame begun in 2008.

 Senator Mike Crapo

“The Constitution and federal law require that, among other things,
only native-born U.S. citizens (or those born abroad, but only to
parents who were both American citizens) may be President of the
United States.”

“Furthermore, both the Director of
Hawaii’s Department of Health and the state’s Registrar of Vital
Statistics recently confirmed that Mr. Obama was born in Honolulu,
Hawaii on August 4, 1961 and, as such, meets the constitutional
citizenship requirements for the presidency.”

 Senator Barbara Mikulski (The most grossly inaccurate response)

“The Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution states that “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.” Since President-elect Obama was born in Hawaii two years after it was admitted as the 50th state, he is a natural-born citizen. He has released a copy of his birth certificate and it has been authenticated by experts. Following Obama’s overwhelming and undisputed victory in the recent election, the Supreme Court has considered challenges to his citizenship and dismissed them as being without merit.”

 Senator Harry Reid

“Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961, in
Honolulu, Hawai’i. His birth certificate is a matter of public record
of the State of Hawai’i and is available online through various news
sources, as well as on the Web site for the nonpartisan, nonprofit
Annenberg Political Fact Check: http://www.factcheck.org

 Representative Steven LaTourette

” The Secretary of State of each state holds the responsibility of
verifying that each presidential candidate meets the requirements as
outlined in the U.S. Constitution.”

 Senator John Cornyn

“The consequences
of continued inaction are too great. It is imperative that Congress
act quickly to secure our borders, reform our country’s immigration
laws, modernize healthcare, and promote energy independence. You may
be certain that I will continue to pursue conservative initiatives
that reinforce the principles upon which our country was founded
while holding the new Administration accountable to the American
people.”

Representative James Sensenbrenner

“As you may know, the Senate unanimously passed S.Res.511, recognizing
that Senator McCain is a natural born citizen. This measure came about
in response to questions that were raised with respect to Sen. McCain’s
eligibility due to the fact that he was born outside of the United
States to U.S. citizens while his father was serving in the U.S.
military. In President-elect Obama’s case, such legislation was not
deemed necessary because claims that Mr. Obama is constitutionally
ineligible for the nation’s highest office are unfounded. No credible
evidence has surfaced to call into question his eligibility to run.”

Some of the members of Congress need more than Constitution 101. Perhaps they need.

Read Comprehension 101.

Integrity 101.

Give a damn 101.

As soon as these congressmen are sworn in, let’s help them with their education. Make certain they are up to speed about:

“Why has Obama, for over 2 years, employed numerous private and government attorneys to avoid presenting a legitimate birth certificate and college records?”…Citizen Wells and millions of concerned Americans

Despite numerous red flags in 2008, the US Congress in January 2009 was derelict in it’s duty, as part of the checks and balances, to question the eligibility of Barack Obama when the electoral votes were presented. Here are some of the more prominent red flags.

  • Despite the controversy about John McCain being eligible and the Senate resolution which stated that McCain had two US Citizen parents and the fact that Obama’s father was Kenyan and British, Obama was not questioned about his natural born citizen status.
  • Obama never presented a legitimate birth certificate and began using private attorneys to avoid presenting one.
  • Obama’s past was closely tied to Tony Rezko and other Chicago corruption figures. The Tony Rezko trial ended by mid 2008.
  • Numerous radical and socialist ties to Obama were public knowledge.

Congress was clearly derelict in it’s duty. Since Congress did not do it’s constitutional duty, the US Military has stepped in. Three generals have questioned Obama’s eligibility and LTC was court martialed for disobeying an illegal order to deploy. All because the US Congress failed us.

No more.

This will no longer be tolerated. A new effort is underway to get the attention of Congress and insist that they do their job. This past November election should serve as notice of our resolve. They will listen and do their job or we will vote them out!

From CDR Charles Kerchner

“LTC Terry Lakin stood up for us all in his effort to support and defend the Constitution.  The Congress has failed him when he wrote letters as a soldier to Congress people asking for a Congressional Inquiry into Obama’s exact legal identity like that same Congress investigated John McCain.  The Congress did nothing. The legal system in the USA both civilian and domestic failed him.  He has now paid the price for his courage.  As I write this he is imprisoned in Ft. Leavenworth in Kansas starting a sentence of six months.  His wife was a stay at home mom raising their three young children. As part of his punishment he has lost all pay and benefits and any future retirement opportunities. Upon release from prison he will be dismissed from the Army. We must now stand up and financially support Terry Lakin and his family in his moment of need.  Please visit this website and make a financial contribution large or small to this specialized fund dedicated to supporting Terry and his family while he is imprisoned.  I have.
