Here is a story I have been aware of for a while, but it appears to be heating up. Unless something breaks on this soon, it appears we may be headed for another Supreme Court decided presidential election (SCDPE 3.0). Roll out should be soon.
The long and short of it is that Obama’s campaign has refused to provide a vault copy of his birth certificate to a court in Pennsylvania. He claims he was born in Hawaii, but declines to prove it, while a number of others suspect he was born in Kenya. If the latter, then he is constitutionally ineligible to serve as president.
Of course, this is simply a handy political weapon to use on Obama. Vast stretches of the Constitution have been a dead letter for many decades now and nobody appears to care about that. The Constitution does say that you can’t go around being born in other countries and still be president, and all the die hard Republicans say, “Yeah.” Of course, the Constitution also says that you can’t go around invading and toppling other countries without a declaration of war from Congress, and all the die hard Republicans say, “well, national security . . . Muhammad Atta . . . heh, heh . . . Barbary pirates.”
Nevertheless, there does appear to be something fishy about all this. This election may prove to be the Fruit of the Month Club selection, with all the cherries.
The certificate above is the Internet copy posted on Fight the Smears. The certificate below is a vault copy from around the same time and same island.
