Are we not being asked to perpetuate a fraud? We still know next to nothing about Obama, thanks to the News Media and the Democrat Party. We are unlikely to find out anything in the next four days.
Is he a natural born American? This was a legitimate question about McCain, who was born in the Panama Canal Zone. At first, I thought that question alone would disqualify McCain, but the issue was thoroughly pursued in the courts and MCCain was found to be a legitimate candidate. There have been presidents whe were born on the frontier in U.S. territories who thus qualified as candidates for the office. Even if Obama had been born in Hawaii a few years earlier, he would have been born in a territory, not a state, but he would still be a natural born citizen. The issue is not trivial, except to liberals, because it is in the Constitution.
Will we receive the real document of his birth in time or the election. No, the fix is in and his birth records have been sealed by the governor of Hawaii, a supposed Republican. So far, this is the only example of Obama participating in a bipartisan effort, one that benefits him and further confounds the American people and the truth.
The issue is not the document itself being produced in time for the election. It's the questions the issue arouses concerning his truthfulness and the possibility of fraud.
Let's look at this as a theoretical discussion. As a supposed constitutional scholar, Obama would not be able to plead ignorence on the topic of his birth if he was born outside of the United States. It's in the Constitution-Article II, Section 5, paragraph 5 "No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the Unitied States, at the time of the adoption of this constitution, shall be elegible to the office of the president". Since no one is alive who was alive then, unless the Left wants to argue for the ongoing sanctity of life versus abortion, then only natural born citizens are elegible. If he is covering up his foreign birth, is he not carrying on a fraud on the American people? Is not the Democrat Party also guilty of a fraudulent act by not fully vetting the one candidate for president they have selected out of a country of 300,000,000 people? Are the News Medai not co-conspirators in the smae fraud by not doing their job of investigating the Democrat candidate? They are ruthlessly efficient in investigating private citizens like Joe the Plumber and the reporter in Florida because these mere plebeians dared to ask embarrassing questions. They are zealots in their investigative assault on Sarah Palin, who is running for vice president. If the fraud is real, are they not co-conspirators?
What is the effect of this act? We elect a fraudelent, illegitimate candidate to the highest office in the world and we can get rid of him; except by impeaching him in the House of Representatives, then trying and convicting him in the Senate. That will not happen in a Congress where both houses have clear Democrat control. In 2010, we might take back the House, but can we impeach him? Not likely. The Senate will still not not even try him, if the Democrats maintain a large enough majority.
In the meantime, the Democrat Senate will be approving his judicial appointments. Contrary to popular opinion, judges are not appointed for life. According to the Constitution, they serve as long as they are in good standing. In good standing has come to mean life time appointments, but it is not the same. Even so, how can they be in good standing, if they were appointed by a fraudelent president. That is a legal issue that may give us a chance, someday after we win big enough majorities in both houses, to impeach and remove them all from office, along with Obama. But we can't count on it. It's a simple argument, how can judges appointed by a illegitimate president by themselves legitimate? Their appointment will be null and void because they were appointed by a president who is null and void, according to the Constitution. So you think they, the judges and the Democrats in Congress, would consider that point? In this theoretical discussion, would Obama protect and defend the Constitution? If you believe that, I've got a great deal for you and all the other pigeons and punters on the purchase of the Brooklyn Bridge. It's for sale, you know. It's the truth, and the left is compassioanate.
So, how do we avoid this? Don't vote him into office in the first place. Don't allow him to get in on a loophole in the law, called fraud. Vote for McCain/Palin and a mojority in the House of Representatives. Winning a majority of the Senate seats up for election would be a treat. Anything else could be criminal.
