Auto industry posts “staggering losses.” Joblessness soars. Colleges cutting back budgets by billions. Even Berkshire Hathaway is pinched — income fell a whopping 77% in October for Warren Buffet’s legendary cash machine.
And who did we elect? A rookie with no record and no promise. But he’s getting a PUPPY!! Yay!
I guess we still are the country that elected George W. Bush. Twice.

#1 CJ All the upper echelon is aware of the lawsuits against BO and the questions surrounding his birth. I haven’t seen anyone do a thing so far. I contacted Devvy Kidd yesterday and told her I had already done everything she did, except not for IL. I also wrote the DOJ. I remember doing that on 9/2 and spent $30 for priority mail. Also faxed. No one wants to touch this thing and I don’t think Andy Martin will get very far. Also, as far as the electors are concerned, they are all cowardly. McCain is not going to ask his electors to challenge this although he has a right to do it. He’s afraid of disrupting everything, something about anarchy.

My re-post from downstairs:
My daughter who has a little ESP told me last spring that Obama would have to step down and Hillary would be our next President.
All summer and fall I waited for the other shoe to drop for Obama. Nothing. I kept asking her, “Are you sure about that feeling you have?” She indignently answered “Yes!”
Well, I asked her Wednesday morning again and she said “Obama hasn’t taken the oath of office yet?”
So, I am waiting with baited breath till Inauguration Day and praying she is right.
Oh, I also asked her “What about Biden?” She still says Hillary will be our next President.
She’s been right many times before and this time she seems really sure about this.

“I guess we still are the country that elected George W. Bush. Twice.”
You know that is so true. I do not think as a nation we are very good at looking at the writting on the wall. I was talking to my bo supporting office coworkers about taxes (again). They just didn’t get it that taxes would go up because we’ll loose the Bush tax cuts. Then in an effort to prove me wrong one of them googled the tax brackets now Vs when Bush first took office. Surprise surprise everything I had been saying was spelled out on the INTERNET avaialable for all to see! Then the bo supporters were like “well we don’t want that!!” “We’re angry now,” they said…..WTF…why couldn’t you have gotten angry on Nov 3rd?

CJ on your question. Reposted from downstairs…
New ad apparently in USA Today… uh, today.
http://www.wethepeoplefoundation.org/UPDATE/misc2008/Obama-USA-TODAY-ad.htm
Funny though, if he would’ve just produced a Vault Original back in Jan or when this first came up, no one would have questioned the Indonesia thing. Now they are wanting much more than just the BC.
Oh, and for those that don’t know, I just found out that BO’s sister who was born in Indonesia ALSO has a Certificate of Live Birth (which is what BO supposedly put out earlier this year) from Hawaii. That means they registered her in Hawaii even though she wasn’t born there.
Again, I had to produce an official birth certificate for my son to enter KINDERGARTEN this past year. I went down to the courthouse, paid my $24, and five minutes later, there it was. They can say they’ve produced it all they want, but I guarantee you, if I was President-Elect and the SCOTUS was asking to see mine, I would be over there by NOON with it in my hot little hand.
Why hasn’t he? And he’s never said to any court that he HAS it, just that the person filing the petition has “no standing” to bring the suit (that was the BO Campaign’s “answer” to the Philadelphia lawsuit, which the judge used to throw the case out). It’s interesting to me that Justice Sooter (sp?) said essentially, “We’re not going to press this, just show us the Original, and we’re done.”
What happens when that original doesn’t show up? Oh, and what the heck was that whole thing about the birth records being “sealed” that was covered in every “news” media out there upon BO’s return from Hawaii that one of our intrepid PUMA’s uncovered to be a bald-faced lie? Why would someone come out to say it’s sealed if it isn’t? Was someone getting too close?
Of course someone came out and said there is a BC in the Hawaii records as if that’s proof. Hello. $24 and five minutes and at least that question would be cleared up. Does it seem to anyone else that he might be stalling?
And really, I’m curious, what DOES happen at the SCOTUS on Dec. 2 when he hasn’t brought in an original? What do they say? “Oh, well”? No, seriously. Make no mistake, people are watching this thing, and if you are a justice and you required someone to bring in something, and they flat-out refused, aren’t you putting the court’s integrity at issue if you just say, “Well, that’s all right. We’ll let you by this time”?
I do not believe this thing is going away.

HERE IS THE LAWYER WE NEED. THIS GUY IS SUPER GOOD AT EXPRESSING HIMSELF. SAVE THIS FOR LATER REFERENCE. THIS IS IMPORTANT.,,,,,,
Obama Must Stand Up Now or Sit Down
By Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr.
NewsWithViews.com
America is facing potentially the gravest constitutional crisis in her history. Barack Obama must either stand up in a public forum and prove, with conclusive documentary evidence, that he is “a natural born Citizen” of the United States who has not renounced his American citizenship—or he must step down as the Democratic Party’s candidate for President of the United States—preferably before the election is held, and in any event before the Electoral College meets. Because, pursuant to the Constitution, only “a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States at the time of the Adoption of th[e] Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President” (Article II, Section 1, Clause 4). And Obama clearly was not “a Citizen of the United States at the time of the Adoption of th[e] Constitution.”
Whether the evidence will show that Obama is, or is not, “a natural born Citizen” who has never renounced his American citizenship is an open question. The arguments on both sides are as yet speculative. But Obama’s stubborn refusal to provide what he claims is “his own” country with conclusive proof on that score compels the presumption that he knows, or at least strongly suspects, that no sufficient evidence in his favor exists. After all, he is not being pressed to solve a problem in quantum physics that is “above his pay grade,” but only asked to provide the public with the original copy of some official record that establishes his citizenship. The vast majority of Americans could easily do so. Why will Obama not dispel the doubts about his eligibility—unless he can not?
Now that Obama’s citizenship has been seriously questioned, the burden of proof rests squarely on his shoulders. The “burden of establishing a delegation of power to the United States * * * is upon those making the claim.” Bute v. Illinois, 333 U.S. 640, 653 (1948). And if each of the General Government’s powers must be proven (not simply presumed) to exist, then every requirement that the Constitution sets for any individual’s exercise of those powers must also be proven (not simply presumed) to be fully satisfied before that individual may exercise any of those powers. The Constitution’s command that “[n]o Person except a natural born Citizen * * * shall be eligible to the Office of President” is an
absolute prohibition against the exercise of each and every Presidential power by certain unqualified individuals. Actually (not simply presumptively or speculatively) being “a natural born Citizen” is the condition precedent sine qua non for avoiding this prohibition. Therefore, anyone who claims eligibility for “the Office of President” must, when credibly challenged, establish his qualifications in this regard with sufficient evidence.
In disposing of the lawsuit Berg v. Obama, which squarely presents the question of Obama’s true citizenship, the presiding judge complained that Berg “would have us derail the democratic process by invalidating a candidate for whom millions of people voted and who underwent excessive vetting during what was one of the most hotly contested presidential primary in living memory.” This is exceptionally thin hogwash. A proper judicial inquiry into Obama’s eligibility for “the Office of President” will not deny his supporters a “right” to vote for him—rather, it will determine whether they have any such “right” at all. For, just as Obama’s “right” to stand for election to “the Office of President” is contingent upon his being “a natural born Citizen,” so too are the “rights” of his partisans to vote for him contingent upon whether he is even eligible for that “Office.” If Obama is ineligible, then no one can claim any “right” to vote for him. Indeed, in that case every American who does vote has a constitutional duty to vote against him.
The judge in Berg v. Obama dismissed the case, not because Obama has actually proven that he is eligible for “the Office of President,” but instead because, simply as a voter, Berg supposedly lacks “standing” to challenge Obama’s eligibility:
regardless of questions of causation, the grievance remains too generalized to establish the existence of an injury in fact. * ** [A] candidate’s ineligibility under the Natural Born Citizen Clause does not result in an injury in fact to voters. By extension, the theoretical constitutional harm experienced by voters does not change as the candidacy of an allegedly ineligible candidate progresses from the primaries to the general election.
This pronouncement does not rise to the level of hogwash.
First, the Constitution mandates that “[t]he judicial Power shall extend to all Cases, in Law and Equity, arising under this Constitution” (Article III, Section 2, Clause 1). Berg’s suit plainly “aris[es] under th[e] Constitution,” in the sense of raising a critical constitutional issue. So the only question is whether his suit is a constitutional “Case[ ].” The present judicial test for whether a litigant’s claim constitutes a constitutional “Case[ ]” comes under the rubric of “standing”—a litigant with “standing” may proceed; one without “standing” may not. “Standing,” however, is not a term found anywhere in the Constitution. Neither are the specifics of the doctrine of “standing,” as they have been elaborated in judicial decision after judicial decision, to be found there. Rather, the test for “standing” is almost entirely a judicial invention.
True enough, the test for “standing” is not as ridiculous as the judiciary’s so-called “compelling governmental interest test,” which licenses public officials to abridge individuals’ constitutional rights and thereby exercise powers the Constitution withholds from those officials, which has no basis whatsoever in the Constitution, and which is actually anti-constitutional. Neither is the doctrine of “standing” as abusive as the “immunities” judges have cut from whole cloth for public officials who violate their constitutional “Oath[s] or Affirmation[s], to support this Constitution” (Article VI, Clause 3)—in the face of the Constitution’s explicit limitation on official immunities (Article I, Section 6, Clause 1). For the Constitution does require that a litigant must present a true “Case[ ].” Yet, because the test for “standing” is largely a contrivance of all-too-fallible men and women, its specifics can be changed as easily as they were adopted, when they are found to be faulty. And they must be changed if the consequences of judicial ignorance, inertia, and inaction are not to endanger America’s constitutional form of government. Which is precisely the situation here, inasmuch as the purported “election” of Obama as President, notwithstanding his ineligibility for that office, not only will render illegitimate the Executive Branch of the General Government, but also will render impotent its Legislative Branch (as explained below).
Second, the notion upon which the judge in Berg v. Obama fastened—namely, that Berg’s “grievance remains too generalized to establish the existence of an injury in fact,” i.e., if everyone is injured or potentially injured then no one has “standing”—is absurd on its face.
To be sure, no one has yet voted for Obama in the general election. But does that mean that no one in any group smaller than the general pool of America’s voters in its entirety has suffered specific harm from Obama’s participation in the electoral process to date? Or will suffer such harm from his continuing participation? What about the Democrats who voted for Hillary Clinton as their party’s nominee, but were saddled with Obama because other Democrats voted for him even though they could not legally have done so if his lack of eligibility for “the Office of President” had been judicially determined before the Democratic primaries or convention? What about the States that have registered Obama as a legitimate candidate for President, but will have been deceived, perhaps even defrauded, if he is proven not to be “a natural born Citizen”? And as far as the general election is concerned, what about the voters among erstwhile Republicans and Independents who do not want John McCain as President, and therefore will vote for Obama (or any Democrat, for that matter) as “the lesser of two evils,” but who later on may have their votes effectively thrown out, and may have to suffer McCain’s being declared the winner of the election, if Obama’s ineligibility is established? Or what about those voters who made monetary contributions to Obama’s campaign, but may at length discover that their funds went, not only to an ineligible candidate, but to one who knew he was ineligible?
These obvious harms pale into insignificance, however, compared to the national disaster of having an outright usurper purportedly “elected” as “President.” In this situation, it is downright idiocy to claim, as did the judge in Berg v. Obama, that a “generalized” injury somehow constitutes no judicially cognizable injury at all. Self-evidently, to claim that a “generalized” grievance negates “the existence of an injury in fact” is patently illogical—for if everyone in any group can complain of the same harm of which any one of them can complain, then the existence of some harm cannot be denied; and the more people who can complain of that harm, the greater the aggregate or cumulative seriousness of the injury. The whole may not be greater than the sum of its parts; but it is at least equal to that sum! Moreover, for a judge to rule that no injury redressable in a court of law exists, precisely because everyone in America will be subjected to an individual posing as “the President” but who constitutionally cannot be (and therefore is not) the President, sets America on the course of judicially assisted political suicide. If Obama turns out to be nothing more than an usurper who has fraudulently seized control of the Presidency, not only will the Constitution have been egregiously flouted, but also this whole country could be, likely will be, destroyed as a consequence. And if this country is even credibly threatened with destruction, every American will be harmed—irretrievably, should the threat become actuality—including those who voted or intend to vote for Obama, who are also part of We the People. Therefore, in this situation, any and every American must have “standing” to demand—and must demand, both in judicial fora and in the fora of public opinion—that Obama immediately and conclusively prove himself eligible for “the Office of President.”
Utterly imbecilic as an alternative is the judge’s prescription in Berg v. Obama that,
[i]f, through the political process, Congress determines that citizens, voters, or party members should police the Constitution’s eligibility requirements for the Presidency, then it is free to pass laws conferring standing on individuals like [Berg]. Until that time, voters do not have standing to bring the sort of challenge that [Berg] attempts to bring * * * .
Recall that this selfsame judge held that Berg has no constitutional “Case[ ]” because he has no “standing,” and that he has no “standing” because he has no “injury in fact,” only a “generalized” “grievance.” This purports to be a finding of constitutional law: namely, that constitutionally no “Case[ ]” exists. How, then, can Congress constitutionally grant “standing” to individuals such as Berg, when the courts (assuming the Berg decision is upheld on appeal) have ruled that those individuals have no “standing”? If “standing” is a constitutional conception, and the courts deny that “standing” exists in a situation such as this, and the courts have the final say as to what the Constitution means—then Congress lacks any power to contradict them. Congress cannot instruct the courts to exercise jurisdiction beyond what the Constitution includes within “the judicial Power.” Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. (1 Cranch) 137, 173-180 (1803).
In fact, though, a Congressional instruction is entirely unnecessary. Every American has what lawyers call “an implied cause of action”—directly under Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 of the Constitution—to require that anyone standing for “the Office of President” must verify his eligibility for that position, at least when serious allegations have been put forward that he is not eligible, and he has otherwise refused to refute those allegations with evidence that should be readily available if he is eligible. That “Case[ ]” is one the Constitution itself defines. And the Constitution must be enforceable in such a “Case[ ]” in a timely manner, by anyone who cares to seek enforcement, because of the horrendous consequences that will ensue if it is flouted.
What are some of those consequences?
First, if Obama is not “a natural born Citizen” or has renounced such citizenship, he is simply not eligible for “the Office of President” (Article II, Section 1, Clause 4). That being so, he cannot be “elected” by the voters, by the Electoral College, or by the House of Representatives (see Amendment XII). For neither the voters, nor the Electors, nor Members of the House can change the constitutional requirement, even by unanimous vote inter sese (see Article V). If, nonetheless, the voters, the Electors, or the Members of the House purport to “elect” Obama, he will be nothing but an usurper, because the Constitution defines him as such. And he can never become anything else, because an usurper cannot gain legitimacy if even all of the country aid, abets, accedes to, or acquiesces in his usurpation.
Second, if Obama dares to take the Presidential “Oath or Affirmation” of office, knowing that he is not “a natural born Citizen,” he will commit the crime of perjury or false swearing (see Article II, Section 1, Clause 7). For, being ineligible for “the Office of President, he cannot “faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States,” or even execute it at all, to any degree. Thus, his very act of taking the “Oath or Affirmation” will be a violation thereof! So, even if the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court himself looks the other way and administers the “Oath or Affirmation,” Obama will derive no authority whatsoever from it.
Third, his purported “Oath or Affirmation” being perjured from the beginning, Obama’s every subsequent act in the usurped “Office of President” will be a criminal offense under Title 18, United States Code, Section 242, which provides that:
[w]hoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States * * * shall be fined * * * or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined * * * or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, * * *, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined * * * or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.
Plainly enough, every supposedly “official” act performed by an usurper in the President’s chair will be an act “under color of law” that necessarily and unavoidably “subjects [some] person * * * to the deprivation of [some] rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution * * * of the United States”—in the most general case, of the constitutional “right[ ]” to an eligible and duly elected individual serving as President, and the corresponding constitutional “immunit[y]” from subjection to an usurper pretending to be “the President.”
Fourth, if he turns out to be nothing but an usurper acting in the guise of “the President,” Obama will not constitutionally be the “Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States” (see Article II, Section 2, Clause 1). Therefore, he will be entitled to no obedience whatsoever from anyone in those forces. Indeed, for officers or men to follow any of his purported “orders” will constitute a serious breach of military discipline—and in extreme circumstances perhaps even “war crimes.” In addition, no one in any civilian agency in the Executive Branch of the General Government will be required to put into effect any of Obama’s purported “proclamations,” “executive orders,” or “directives.”
Fifth, as nothing but an usurper (if he becomes one), Obama will have no conceivable authority “to make Treaties”, or to “nominate, and * * * appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not * * * otherwise provided for [in the Constitution]” (Article II, Section 2, Clause 2). And therefore any “Treaties” or “nominat[ions], and * * * appoint[ments]” he purports to “make” will be void ab initio, no matter what the Senate does, because the Senate can neither authorize an usurper to take such actions in the first place, nor thereafter ratify them. One need not be a lawyer to foresee what further, perhaps irremediable, chaos must ensue if an usurper, even with “the Advice and Consent of the Senate”, unconstitutionally “appoint[s] * * * Judges of the Supreme Court” whose votes thereafter make up the majorities that wrongly decide critical “Cases” of constitutional law.
Sixth, and perhaps most importantly, Congress can pass no law while an usurper pretends to occupy “the Office of President.” The Constitution provides that “[e]very Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States” (Article I, Section 7, Clause 2). Not to an usurper posturing as “the President of the United States,” but to the true and rightful President. If no such true and rightful President occupies the White House, no “Bill” will or can, “before it become a Law, be presented to [him].” If no “Bill” is so presented, no “Bill” will or can become a “Law.” And any purported “Law” that the usurper “approve[s]” and “sign[s],” or that Congress passes over the usurper’s “Objections,” will be a nullity. Thus, if Obama deceitfully “enters office” as an usurper, Congress will be rendered effectively impotent for as long as it acquiesces in his pretenses as “President.”
Seventh, if Obama does become an usurper posturing as “the President,” Congress cannot even impeach him because, not being the actual President, he cannot be “removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors” (see Article II, Section 4). In that case, some other public officials would have to arrest him—with physical force, if he would not go along quietly—in order to prevent him from continuing his imposture. Obviously, this could possibly lead to armed conflicts within the General Government itself, or among the States and the people.
Eighth, even did something approaching civil war not eventuate from Obama’s hypothetical usurpation, if the Establishment allowed Obama to pretend to be “the President,” and the people acquiesced in that charade, just about everything that was done during his faux “tenure in office” by anyone connected with the Executive Branch of the General Government, and quite a bit done by the Legislative Branch and perhaps the Judicial Branch as well, would be arguably illegitimate and subject to being overturned when a constitutional President was finally installed in office. The potential for chaos, both domestically and internationally, arising out of this systemic uncertainty is breathtaking.
The underlying problem will not be obviated if Obama, his partisans in the Democratic Party, and his cheerleaders and cover-up artists in the big media simply stonewall the issue of his (non)citizenship and contrive for him to win the Presidential election. The cat is already out of the bag and running all over the Internet. If he continues to dodge the issue, Obama will be dogged with this question every day of his purported “Presidency.” And inevitably the truth will out. For the issue is too simple, the evidence (or lack of it) too accessible. Either Obama can prove that he is “a natural born Citizen” who has not renounced his citizenship; or he cannot. And he will not be allowed to slip through with some doctored “birth certificate” generated long after the alleged fact. On a matter this important, Americans will demand that, before its authenticity is accepted, any supposed documentary evidence of that sort be subjected to reproducible forensic analyses conducted by reputable, independent investigators and laboratories above any suspicion of being influenced by or colluding with any public official, bureaucracy, political party, or other special-interest organization whatsoever.
Berg v. Obama may very well end up in the Supreme Court. Yet that ought to be unnecessary. For Obama’s moral duty is to produce the evidence of his citizenship sua sponte et instanter. Otherwise, he will be personally responsible for all the consequences of his refusal to do so.
Of course, if Obama knows that he is not “a natural born Citizen” who never renounced his American citizenship, then he also knows that he and his henchmen have perpetrated numerous election-related frauds throughout the country—the latest, still-ongoing one a colossal swindle targeting the American people as a whole. If that is the case, his refusal “to be a witness against himself” is perfectly explicable and even defensible on the grounds of the Fifth Amendment. Howsoever justified as a matter of criminal law, though, Obama’s silence and inaction will not obviate the necessity for him to prove his eligibility for “the Office of President.” The Constitution may permit him to “take the Fifth;” but it will not suffer him to employ that evasion as a means to usurp the Presidency of the United States.

PUMAs! I went to the Fayetteville Observer to see what’s the latest on that school teacher berating the student for wanting McCain as President. This is the latest from Ms. Harris:
Harris said she received no complaints about the political nature of the classroom dialogue until a reporter called her Thursday night. She blamed the controversy on McCain supporters still smarting from their defeat this week.
“If John McCain had won, nothing would be said about this video, doctored or undoctored,” said Harris, who is a registered Democrat.”

We the PEOPLE in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, and ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
I think this is pretty clear that it’s OUR JOB to find a way to enforce this if we want the Constitution to MEAN something. Or we can say this clause is meaningless and it’s not important, at which point the whole thing seems pretty much up for grabs–if you don’t like that part, just don’t follow it. Not sure that’s a precedent even the most blind want to set on the books. But then what do I know?
TXRepGirl 11.08.08 at 8:37 am
Just curious, what is that teacher claming was “doctored”? Was her voice superimposed upon the video to make her say things she really didn’t say? And I really think the McCain argument is ridiculous. Are you saying no one cares if you call out a child with a father in the military and tell her she’s voting wrong because she’s voting for the guy that would keep HER FATHER in Iraq for 100 years? Are you saying that’s all right? I’m thinking… no.

Someone should phone him. I dont know what to say to him. He is obviously very aware of the Berg Lawsuit as he analyses it. the question is how to get him to act to do something in the courts. Ask him for an email and we all can deluge him with emails. maybe that is not good.

Just so you know, on the Certificate of Live Birth that O supposedly produced a couple of months ago.
A COLB is not the long form. Obama’s sister Maya, who was born in Jakarta Indonesia was also issued a Hawaiian COLB, sect 7C was available for Foreign Born registered in Hawaii. This info is not available on the short form.
indy 11.08.08 at 8:41 am
Didn’t it ever throw up red flags to other rational-thinking Americans, except present company and other PUMAs, that “O” actions to seal all his college records, transcripts, COLB, “discarded” his state senate records, etc., that something “smells rotten in Denmark, (or America).”
ladyhawkke 11.08.08 at 8:43 am
#16 TexRepGirl I’m the one who found out it wasn’t sealed. I called the HI Governor’s office and she told me the BC was not sealed. She directed me to the health records where the Director put out a news release that he had the BC and that it would be treated like every other person’s BC, PRIVATE. The post above regarding his sister born in Indonesia and having a Certificate of Live Birth. How do you do that? I don’t understand. Does that mean I can come over here from Italy and then go to the Bureau of Vital Statistics and give them my Italian BC and then get a Certificate of Live Birth. Why would you do that? I don’t understand why Hawaii would accept an Indonesian or whatever BC and then give him a Certificate of Live Birth. This doesn’t make him a Hawaiian citizen but I’m questioning why they would do that. It doesn’t make sense.

Lin4Hill 11.08.08 at 8:45 am
Good morning PUMA-friends,
With all of the handlers and designers for this sham-presidency, I also have doubts that a legitimate birth certificate will ever surface. They will use the U.S. Mint to create one if they have to. (Would love to be proven wrong, but when you see the tsunami of support he’s received from the media and the monied powerbrokers of our country, it seems insurmountable.) Prove me wrong, somebody, and I’ll dance a jig or two.
This is not related to current thread topic, but I found this in my local Alabama paper. The Thrasher Brothers Trailways is a charter bus service and was commissioned to handle transportation for the McCain campaign. A local bus driver recounted his experiences driving the McCains and the Palins to a reporter.
He also drove the Palins to a stop in Pennsylvania so that Sarah Palin could take Piper trick-or-treating.
“They were just down-to-earth people,” Brewster told The Gadsden Times.
Brewster said Alaska Governor Palin always asked him if she could get him anything when she left the bus for an event….Brewster said McCain is a ’super nice guy,’ but Brewster was clearly taken by Palin. ‘He was personable, but she was more down-to-earth, on my level,” Brewster said. ‘She could carry on a conversation with anybody.’”
—————-the media should be ashamed. Maybe someday when they stop kissing themselves in the mirror, the truth will sink in.

Does anyone else remember the comment made by Bill Clinton at a rally very early in his “support” for Obama? He was being badgered by reporters to be more open about his opinion of Obama. In one of the articles I read he said that on Jan 20, 2009 he would have ALOT to say about this election. Most people glanced over it, but that one quote keeps rolling around in my head. I think there is something big going on and the Clintons are aware of it.
TXRepGirl 11.08.08 at 8:54 am
#31 ladyhawke. That was my question too! Actually both of them: 1) as a mother why would you do that? 2) as a state why would you do that?
The only thing I can figure is some sort of dual citizenship, but then Indonesia didn’t allow for that, so I don’t know. There are just more questions here than answers, like how BO traveled to Pakistan in 1981 on a (if he was a U.S. citizen) U.S. passport, except that in 1981 Pakistan wasn’t recognizing U.S. passports and so would not have let him into the country, but he did go, and he was let in. So what passport did he use? And doesn’t that call into question if he is at least a dual citizen?
And yeah, why keep ALL of your formal records secret. At first on the college stuff, I thought it was grades or maybe thesis or classes he took. Now I’m not so sure. Too many questions.

That’s what I’d like to know. When Harris asked the children, those that responded “Obama” she never said a word, but moved to the next child.
Another question: How can you tell a child, who’s parent is in the military, that they’re father will be in Iraq for another 100 years? Where’s her compassion as a teacher for that child? There may already be stress in that child’s household worrying about her parent’s well-being. She may be stoking the flames. Or if that child wasn’t worried, she may be now. I know as a child, I believed what my teacher told me was the truth.
My daughter is a teacher with students who have parents in Iraq. She has told me that she never brings up the war. She said if they bring it up, she’s a good listener.

Avenues and Angles:
For those interested, here are the angles I’m aware of on this thing:
1) Petition to all Electoral College delegates to certify the BC before they vote (Dec. 6–I believe)
2) Berg suit before the SCOTUS, in which court brushed the suit aside but did require Obama to produce an Original Birth Certificate (not Certificate of Live Birth) by Dec. 1
3) Petition to Congress to require the certificate
4) Andy Martin working at the state level to obtain documentation
5) Dr. Viera and his work
Not sure where any of this can or will go, but it is not going away until the SCOTUS either disregards the Constitution and their own integrity, or we get documentation, or we head into a Constitutional crisis…
Lin4Hill 11.08.08 at 9:04 am
I,too, am more curious about the closed records regarding BO’s college years, or scholarship support. When you refuse to be open about something that should be quite trivial compared to other qualifications for a presidency, it suggests a questionable history. We have heard that a prominent Middle-Eastern benefactor may have provided grants/scholarships to Muslim students at that time. When one is not open about this time period, or where money to support academic pursuits came from, it leaves the imagination to connect its own dots.

The birth certificate needs to be produced period, John McCain had to show proof of his…no one is above the law, no one.
If Barak is indeed not a natural born citizen but has had duel citizenship, he is not eligible, period. I dont care how many worshippers he has, or how many lawyers he has. Once it’s produced, then get on with it, but I for one will not be always doubtful until it is once and for all solved and closed.
As for that dumbass teacher in North Carolina, she needs to be removed from the teaching profession. Let her have her retirement benefits for the 27 years served and who knows, she might have enough sick leave days to make up and actually have full retirement benefits, but get her out of any classroom period. Believe you me
there are thousands out there just like her, I know because i worked with them white and black who were just tooooooo damned vocal in the halls and classrooms during elections.

TXRepGirl:
Did you know that when Obama went to Pakistan at age 20, he was the guest of the recent Interim President Soomro of Pakistan? Also, at the time, someone from South America, told Soomro to watch over Obama.
Here it is:
Soomro was among Obama’s hosts in Pakistan
Thursday, April 24, 2008
NEW YORK: Chairman Senate Muhammadmian Soomro may be having a friend in White House if Barak Hussain Obama finally succeeds in his presidential bid.
Hardly a few people know about Soomro’s link with Obama, which he never discussed it in public. But in private interactions with influential Pakistanis here in the US, Obama disclosed that Soomro’s father was his host when he went on a hunting expedition in Jacobabad during his visit to Pakistan in 1981.
While in Karachi, Obama had stayed at the residence of his college friend, Hassan Chandio. In Jacobabad, he was the guest of Soomro family. Muhammadmian Soomro confirmed this information and said it was his first meeting with Obama.
“Yes, he had been our guest and spent three days in Jacobabad,” he told The News. Soomro, presently in the US, his second home, said an American friend had told his father, Ahmadmian Soomro, about Obama’s arrival in Pakistan and asked him to look after the American. Soomro’s father was the deputy speaker of West Pakistan Assembly and had also later served in the Senate.

This was posted on Craigslist. I am in Florida and I forwarded it to Berg, asking for his help. If we could do a few states, we could start a dominoe effect. Post if you are interested. I will be in and out through the day.
Now that the election is over, we NEED to see the birth certificate from Kenya. [NOTE: kenya has apparently sealed their birth records - if so why(?)] if there is nothing there to begin with. I have figured out how Obama’s mother may have obtained an Hawaiian Certificate of Live Birth under the lax statutes then in effect in Hawaii even though he was born in Kenya. Again, the “Certificate of Live Birth”, according both the controlling statute and the language on the document itself, is only prima facie evidence of its contents
Under Florida Law, Fla. Stat. sec. 102.168 (1) & (3)(b), any elector [voter] qualified to vote or any Florida taxpayer can now challenge Obama’s election in Florida circuit court on the grounds of “Ineligibility of the successful candidate for the nomination or office in dispute” ANY Florida taxpayer and/or registered voter has STANDING to raise this issue but who ever does it must act fast and must have access to the evidence that Philip Berg possesses. This would award McCain Florida’s electorial college votes and deny them to Obama. A Florida court has this authority under statute and if this would effect the overall outcome of the presidential election in the US, the court just might do so if Berg’s evidence is any good. Don’t let this window of opportunity close!

PUMA’s Unleashed. I think what you’re referring to is does he have to have the birth certificate from when he was BORN. (i.e. they didn’t lose it in a move). I do NOT think that’s the definition. I believe if he simply went to the Hawaiian registrar’s office and asked for an original birth certificate (long version), the document (if it was there) would be all the documentation that would be required.
(I lost my son’s ORIGINAL birth certificate from the hospital, so when they were going to throw him out of kindergarten if I didn’t bring one in, I went down to the courthouse, paid $24 and had what amounted to a new original printed up. Took about 5 minutes.)
I really think an ORIGNIAL like THAT would be perfectly acceptable. So where is it?

It’s been a tough week for teachers. I know–I am one. I teach in a BO-adoring community with inner-city kids who believe everything is now going to come to them. After reading the blog this week, and all the conjecture about the choice of colors for the new first-family’s wardrobe (red/black), I realized that the AA teachers in my school were wearing those colors as well. Yesterday several AA teachers sported Obama t-shirts. One teacher down the hall is writing songs in his honor and the children are singing them daily.
Rumors down here are that the front pages of the local paper that sport an almost-actual-size grinning BO are selling for hundreds of dollars.
I have to smile and say nice things to my students about this new guy, or say nothing at all. I have to let them write letters of praise and journal entries of this historic day. As much as it hurts me. But when one of my students pointed at me the other day and said, “Your great grandfather had slaves,” I let him have it. I informed him strongly that his comment was racist to me, assuming that all white folks had slave-owning ancestry. My great-great-greats were coal miners, fishermen from Scotland, or simple farmers that never got rich. Most came to America after the Civil War. (I know you all don’t need to know that–just the info I gave him)
But, my point is that teachers are quoted at home. Children never forget how a teacher made them feel. And we aren’t perfect, and it’s been a tough week for NOBAMA teachers–smiling though our hearts are breaking…..and some things may slip out we regret saying. But that teacher was totally unprofessional.

GBPuma,
I was wondering that too. Since McCain conceded, does that mean that Bozo gets to be sworn in even if the actual votes determine that he doesn’t win the electoral college.
and
utahpuma 11.08.08 at 7:45 am
GBPuma
Where are you watching these counts? I’m curious too.
I will try to answer yo all here at once.
Ist and the most important is that Obozo HAS NOT BEEN ELECTED YET!!!! The vote that happens on and before Nov. 4th the General Election when it pertains to the President is the equivalent of a Straw Poll and even so the vote totals are not official in any state until ALL votes are counted, verified, and then CERTIFIED by the states and most of the states it is NOT until just before Dec. 1st. We as citizens DO NOT elect the President we elect the DELEGATES that represent a candidate to the Electoral College. And the Electoral College are who cast the official vote for the President and that vote is then sent to Congress who meet on Jan, 6th in full session, Senate and House, to approve and debate the choice and then vote for the President, and that is the OFFICIAL vote for President in the US…..To put it in it’s simplest it still is CONGRESS THAT ELECTS the POTUS, with the suggestion from the official state representatives(Electoral College Delegates)vote, who receive their SUGGESTION of choice from the popular vote.
In answering your question MuchAdoAboutSomething there is the possibility that yes he can. But first McCain did not concede…it was a congratulations speech based on only the reported results of the media on election night, which especially this year is not the full results because of so many early votes and absentee ballots and provisional ballots that get counted, and some are not even due for 10-15 days after the election, and only get counted and verified over the next 2-3 weeks. The official popular vote result is not until they are certified by the each state prior to the meeting of the Electoral College delegates around Dec. 1st in most places. But in a normal year the certified vote count is what the Electoral College casts their votes on and the Congress in a normal year will base there votes on these Electoral College votes…..but in the end it does come down to the vote of Congress….and this can get sticky, that is why there could not be a President sworn in on Jan 20th as normally planned and the Speaker could take the reins as acting POTUS until a President is chosen….there are time limits to the debates but there are things that can drag it out forever also.
But in general in a normal year it is the person that wins the Electoral College Vote that becomes the POTUS no matter what the results on election night were and who the media claim. Remember Dewey/Truman, that was in a much less complicated time of elections where you didn’t have all this voting outside of the polling place on election day, and Truman believed he lost and the morning headlines had Dewey as the winner and in the end it was really Truman the winner.
The average person doesn’t understand the full Presidential elections in this country. The election of the POTUS is one of the most complex and complicated systems in modern use….it was established in a very different time with very specific reasons and has become very outdated, but we are stuck with the complications of the system until someone decides to finally fix it.
utahpuma the ONLY sources for the election totals are the state election board…..some do not post the results until everything is fully certified but they are the only legitimate authority….during this pre-certifying period the totals are gotten from the state election sites and going all the way down to the county election results sites…..so there is nothing set in stone when it comes to the vote count until it is certified by the states….there are many votes to be counted and then many complaints and lawsuits to deal with, and a list of many things that need to be dealt with before they can certify a result.
So in short folks, election day is just the beginning of the process, the final word is on Jan. 6th (if there are no complications) when Congress casts there votes.
for CJ it doesn’t matter whether the media reports it or not, the certified vote of each state is all that matters legally as the Official popular vote that determines the delegates votes and Congress’ vote…..in a normal year.

phpbb is great! Although their upgrade to 3.0 is a bit complicated. It’s quite easy to set up and administer.
http://www.phpbb.com/community/
Notice this is also the bulletin board for discussion of this software. So here you get answers to your questions and also a feel for the way it operates. Notice how it allows for threads on different topics to be separated so people can discuss on topics of interest and find answers without wading through a 1000 random postings.
you can also download the software free from here
http://www.phpbb.com/
notice the claims of free software and also advertising free. This software is OPEN SOURCE. so the source code is there for people to modify and play with.
I have seen some with beautiful graphics and user interface. I consider the format on phpBB commuity to be kind of plain. But more than acceptable and many people simply use this plain format.
I hope that PUMA will use this FREE software to help PUMA grow into a larger organization. It will handle a much higher traffic of postings in an organized way so that we can accomplish more. Getting the information to members better.
I do like the friendliness of the present simple format where everyone reads all posts but it really is getting top heavy with over a thousand posts a day. Thus so much good information is lost or never read and impossible to retrieve agains. Hopefully with phpBB software members will be able to easy retrieve information using the search feature.
Members are also given individual accounts with the ability to personal message individuals. thus if I read a post I can message the person asking a question. and get the answer back into my message list. finding the answer very easy.
With the present software if I ask a question publicly I might get an answer but never able to find the answer under some 1000 responses on different ideas.
This software allows us to turn chaos communication into organized communication.

Murphy has worked very hard and spent endless hours building this new website. I think it seems a little insensitive to suggestion changing the platform so quickly after this one was just built.

Since I have little faith in our government and honestly believe that BOTH the Democraps and the Repugs are nothing but puppets on a string, I’m wondering just what is in store for America and the American people. JFK, RFK and MLK were ALL silenced and the evidence that implicated any wrong doing on the part of our government was trampled down as well.. Same goes for 9-11..
As much as I loathe Obama, I’m somewhat concerned that he is just a PUPPET ON A STRING,being used in order to further divide and conquer this country.
There is entirely too much about his past that hasn’t been revealed. We know it, the MSM knows it, and I honestly believe the OBOTS know it too although they may never admit it.. If by chance it ALL comes out, and he is required to step down or something happens to him, we are ALL in grave danger. Just look at that crowd in Philly. MANY that supported him will NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THE NOGHT.
Woodie 11.08.08 at 9:57 am
Another thing to consider, the military vote. Seeing it was not counted because it was late, the military ,in reality, are not obliged to follow the orders of this “Commander in Chief:, because of his status of not being a US citizen or one who refuses to prove it. There maybe a fuss there.

The best way to get out of this economy is not panic. Why, because the bailout is fabricated to a certain extent. People should go back into the market for instance and buy stocks that are low so you are ensured of making profit. We have had recessions before. This one is going to be bad but we can make it. If we panic it will give the people who want to take over america their chance to do so, and yes if obama turns out to be a puppet it will be through him. We certainly don’t want to give them an excuse to use that Martial Law like they did at Katrina.

I’ve also heard a little news last night. If Obama opens and reads any US documents containing classified State Security Secrets, that in and of itself, is a Treasonable offense.
It’s not over, till it’s over! (or we say it is!)
YES that is as long as he is not sworn into as the legitimate POTUS…Any security material that he sees between now and then would put charges of espionage and treason on his head and if it is Pres. Bush that shows it to him or anyone else that does so the charges will also fall on them…….they can have security briefings but any material that is classified must remain classified until his Presidential clearance becomes active after OFFICIALLY being sworn in as POTUS.

To answer your question. I think he went on an Indonesian passport.
Both indonesia and the the US do not allow dual citizenship. Remember he was adopted by his second father who was Indonesian. Remember also Hawaii did not become a state till 1959. The reason him and his sister probably got a COLB from Hawaii was, they were probably pretty lax back then. I know because I lived there for 20 yrs.

Change We Can Believe In ….
FIRST DRAFT:
“Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year.”
NEW DRAFT:
“Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by setting a goal that all middle school and high school students do 50 hours of community service a year and by developing a plan so that all college students who conduct 100 hours of community service receive a universal and fully refundable tax credit ensuring that the first $4,000 of their college education is completely free.”
Notice the word “require” is now “goal” ….
And now the government (us) will be giving away $4,000 to the college students who serve Dear Leader.

I talked to have a couple of months ago and he filed the lawsuit with no evidence, only internet rumors and what BO stated in his books which, by the way, he had never read. I don’t have much faith in any of this. I told Berg how can you file suit and you have nothing, you haven’t even read his books? He said he would go buy the books but he thought he had a good case because he could depose Obama under oath and question him about what he said in his books.

Here’s a computer trip: “How to change your ip address”.
do a search on “trace my ip address”….then lookup your ip address.
one of them will bring it up on your screen.. make a note of it. Then overnite unplug your dsl box or modem and router. In the morning plug it all back in. Reboot your computer. Go to “trace my ip address” and it should be changed. When you do that there is a little map of where your computer is located, like the city not the actual street address. check it out.
I did it and it worked. If you are active on the internet i.e. send an
email, blog, etc. they can easily get your ip so you may want to change it. It would have come in handy when we all went to that API web page, for example.

It is probably “silly” of me to belabor the point, but it is has been said that Obama couldn’t pass a security clearance for any government position.So why is he given a pass when it comes to the Presidency of the U.S.?
Also, couldn’t the CIA get access to Obama’s school records?
I remember that when my nephew was applying to work at the Pentagon, two CIA officers pulled me out of my classes at Alverno College in Milwaukee to answer questions that might effect whether or not he got the position.
Obama wants to be President and no one in authority is searching for information that would clear him or hinder him from accessing the most important position in the world!!!!!!

All of this was done with the active participation of the press and news media.
I think we can let it rip and declare war on the treacherous media for their refusal to vet this candidate, and their distortion and smears against an honorable man and his VP choice.

“Ohio’s Governor placed on leave Friday an agency director who was questioned over why state computers were used to find personal information on a man who became known as Joe the Plumber during the Presidential campaign. Gov. Ted Strictland said in a statement that Helen Jones-Kelley was placed on paid administrative leave because of the possibility a state computer or state e-mail account was used to assist in political fundraising. The statement didn’t mention the checks on Samuel Wurzelbacher, a man known from the Toledo area who became known as Joe the Plumber as as GOP ptrdrnyisl nominee John McCain held him up as an everyman suspicious of Democrat Barack Obama’s proposals.”
This news item is not even two inches on page 2 of a Saturday paper. OHIO PUMAS: Do you have any more information about this?
Note the reason stated: possible fundraising on state computers…This is good…
Murphy: I ask you to consider a followup prowl on Monday to the Govrnor demanding this woman resign…
Pumas need to followup where we can on items we prowled…previously…This is important. This woman needs to go, simply for the Joe the Plumber scan..We cannot let this one get away..clearly the MSM thinks it minimal!

Heneri 11.08.08 at 11:08 am
For people who don’t know: Any US citizen sould be able to ask for and receive proof of citizenship or other qualifications from any public official. This is the one area where the official must show the proof, not the other way around. These officials run for public office and serve under the guidelines set forth for the office they will hold. Just like you have to show a driver’s license to a police officer who requests it at a traffic stop, anyone who challenges you on your qualifiecations has the legal right, as a citizen, to be shown proof that you are qualified.
Obama has received a challenge from a citizen. The court through Justice Souter has backed up that principle. By him ordering Obama as he did to show why Berg does not have standing to make the request, or to turn over the documents, he is recognizing the precept of proof of eligibility to serve.
In our society, we must show proof of citizenship on many levels. If you decide to practice law, medicine, teach, appraise real estate, broker real estate, sell insurance, and on, and on, and on, you must show a license that establishes your qualifications to do that job. In essence, you must be certified by some agency to do that job. Even to work as a pizza delivery person, you must show a driver’s license and proof of citizenship for most pizza joints. This is nothing extraneous in our society. We have round ups of illegal, ‘undocumented’ workers going on all over the country. If they cannot show citizenship or eligibility to work in this country, they are deported or prosecuted. Why should the office of president be any different?

Presidential candidates, it is my understanding, do not go through a “security clearance” because they are to be vetted by the people. Unfortunately, the political parties are now in charge of selecting nominees. Not sure how we gave them so much power, but now we’re scr–ed.
He got an American passport by presenting his HI bc. The question is, how and why was he issued a HI bc if not born in HI? Fraud by his parents or what?
Anybody have better info on this?

I think everyone in power knows he doesn’t qualify under the constitution, but I think no one cares.
If there wasn’t a problem with the Birth Certificate he would have released it long ago. Bill Clinton alluded to it, Richardson called him an immigrant.
Pelosi and friends will just pass a Senate Resolution making him a natural born citizen, just like they did(for no good reason) for McCain.
What I don’t understand is why the Republicans are going along with this.

Maybe it is up to the American people to demand it. Sending letters to Congress is one thing, but maybe a large group of people protesting and demanding BO show his real BC could force the media to take notice.

This woman needs to go. People at state level administrative jobs have been forced to resign for reasons less than either of these two searches. If we can find the answers to my question up there then we can do an even better prowl as followup..either protest the pathetic punishment if it is one and/or demand a resignation regardless…I want this woman out..What she has done is outrageous and now we learn something we did not know…the possible use of state computers for political fundraising…even in this state definitely not legal!

This mint is nuts! It is illegal for any coin or postage stamp to display the image of any living individual. This is because the US does not have a ruler. You will note that Queen Elizabeth II is on Canadian coins, and I assume, all United Kingdom coins and currency. That has never been the case in the USA. These coins are not legal tender. It would be illegal for the US mint to produce them. This is a private venture.

I just realized that Dear Leader wants 50 hrs. PER YEAR from the kiddos. I was thinking that it was 50 hrs. over their 8-12 grade years. As I said before, my daughter has to complete 100 hrs. over a 5 yr. period.
BUT 50 yrs. in one school year plus the normal studies, plus sports or band or clubs … there’s no way that this will happen. Dear Leader’s Obots will open their eyes way sooner than I thought. Dear Leader will be disappointed in his minions.
“Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by setting a goal that all middle school and high school students do 50 hours of community service a year…”

It’s the radio show where Andy Martin talks about this issue. What I lost and will try to remember what I said is why are we Pumas doing this? The attorneys, Berg, Martin and Viera and the Republicans need to do it. I don’t see why we have to keep beating our brains against the wall trying to get this guy ousted. Everyone knows he’s a fraud. We wrote thousands of letters to the supers and nothng. I just don’t think we have the power to do what needs to be done. I did e-mail a Republican from my state, FL, and asked him to contact me about this issue. Just listen to the show and wait f0or Andy Martin as the show goes on and on and you have to wait for when he’s on.

I can just imagine his speech now-
“I always assumed I was a natural born citizen, and had never looked at the vault copy of my birth certificate. Why would I? How many of you have done that? I believed what my Mother and Grandmother told me.
But this is just a technicality, in my heart I have always been an American. And thanks to the senate resolution, I now qualify to be President.”

Some states will re-issue birth certificates for children born outside the country and adopted by American Citizens. In the case of sealed adoptions, a new birth certificate is often issued with the names of the adoptive parents instead of the biological parent’s names. There are a variety of reasons someone might have dual birth certificates.
In this case, it is critical that we know why this birth certificate has been hidden. Did Ann Dunham adopt her son? Was he born to her than adopted by his step father, Soetoro? Was he born in Kenya, or Canada, and then when his mother arrived there some weeks later, his birth was registered in HI? Any one of these things could be the case.
Some have speculated that BO was born in Kenya sometime in June or July. Then, in early August, just before school started, his mother returned to the USA, registered him in HI, and then went on off to college three weeks later. That might make more sense than his being born in Kenya on Aug 4. We do know that an announcment of his birth was in the local HI papers on August 4.
Having given birth to two children, I am well aware that it would be difficult for many of us to go to school and sit through long classes a mere 3 weeks after having born a child. Not only would it be physically challenging to the mother, the child would be very young and in need of concentrated care at that age. Babysitting and other needs would have been very hard to deal with at that time in our history.
It would not be hard to disguise the age of a child under 3 months of age. Who is to say if a baby is 3 weeks old or 6 weeks old? Depending on the individual baby, its weight at birth, and other factors, they very in size and condition prior to 6 weeks old. A doctor’s exam could probably determine age within two weeks, but not the average person. Most times, the baby is not produced for a public official when the birth certificate is filed. In some states, the hospital or midwife gave the parents a certificate that they (the parents) took and had recorded at the appropriate local office. I know this is true, as my own brother who was born with the help of a midwife, had such a document. He was born in 1963, in KY.

NewOrleansPuma 11.08.08 at 11:39 am
Being a natural born citizen is a Constitutional requirement, not an issue of Senate resolutions. The problem here is that there are in fact no federal laws which indicate that in order to fulfil this requirement one has to present a certified vault copy of bc AS A REQUIREMENT TO QUALIFY AS A CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY. AND IT IS THAT ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE PUT ON THE LIST OF REFORMS IN LAW THAT THIS PAC SHOULD PURSUE. A federal law should be instituted mandating that as the rule of law that bodies out the Constitutional Requirement. This is why I had submitted here this point to use as a question of potential Congressional candidates before the election. This is very specific: Do you support or /will you sponsor, cosponsor or support this law? Simple…you learn a lot in an answer to that! And, such a law must be implemented not just for the Candidacy qualification requirements but also for Senators and Congresspeople…else we will have down the pike..any and every manner of person running for these two places as well.
It seems a benign question and position, but it is not!

I knew in 2004 that it was just matter of time before Bush would destroy the republican party. I just did not think he would do it to the point that people would elect an even bigger fool as POTUS. After 9/11 Bush hand a chance, once in a century chance, to put America on a solid footing to energy independence with it averting some of the economical crisis that we have witnessed. But he listened, do to his lack of any mental activity, to the fringes of the republican party and decided to go to war instead.
Now it is the democratic turn to do the same thing. Obama will manage to destroy the DNC but even more effectively. People backing Bush were not expecting anything significant out of him. They just wanted to get rid of the Clinton era and did not like Gore. However, BO promised the moon to his followers and they expect him to deliver on all the promises. Did you notice how quite the crowed were when he told them that they can’t have the things he told them they can have. I guess the new slogan should be “YES WE CAN. JUST NOT NOW”. The financial crisis that we are now in won’t be resolved for years to come. Many of his supporters will find that “YES WE CAN” was nothing more then some sick joke at which point he will take the democratic party with him.
I hope at this point an Independent will emerge for President who is not beholden to any party.

Griffin:
I think, for the mean time, this group will become a political watchdog group. There are thousands of those around,and I, personally, long for much, much, much more.
The PUMA group membership seems very divided on where we go from here. We are just one of many small groups who have played a role in the resistance to Obama movement. The movement is large enough as a whole to quickly establish a new party. But we are fragmented into more than 100 diverse groups. There is much overlap among us, with some PUMA members also being members of other pacs and blogs. This is a very good thing to a point.
I think we need to move quickly to invite and seek a coalition of all the 18 million Hillary supporters and the disheartened Palin supporters who are unhappy with the way the primary and the general election was conducted. We all started out as Democrats dissatisfied with our party. Now we know there are probably as many republicans who are just as unhappy with that party. I estimate that there are as many as 30 million of us who might be willing to start a new party. That is huge!
First we have to have people willing to work at forming the coalition. Then we have to have some kind of conference with the leaders of this coalition to work out a party philosophy and purpose. Then we would have to elect or appoint a party chair, form finance committees, state organizations complete with chairs, and local people on the ground in as many congressional districts as we can. The DNC doesn’t even have an office in every congressional district. I think we could, if someone would be willing to run it from their home or would donate space.
As you can see, this is a huge undertaking. Some are fearful that we cannot do it. I agree that we cannot if we don’t move in that direction and quickly. We need people like Murphy, Riverdaughter, Texasdarling, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, and others to put it together. We need some validation from people who might divorce their parties and move into ours. Those people who have already done so, like Joe Lieberman, would be high on my list of people we need to approach when the time is right.

Just sent the following email off to Juducial Watch. They can be a thorn in the side when they put their minds to it.
I just read where Senator Obama has set up a dot gov web site for the “Office of the President Elect” (http://change.gov/). This site and the office itself is being run through a newly formed 501c corporation (The Obama-Biden Transition Project, a 501c(4) organization) which holds the copyrights for the new website.
I can only conclude that this structure was designed for two purposes:
1. To circumvent existing campaign laws; and
2. To circumvent the sunshine laws required of all federal efforts.
Regarding the issue of campaign finance laws, it appears that the layout and structure of the new website mirrors the Obama Campaign’s website. It certainly has the appearance of serving as a vehicle in support of Obama’s 2012 Presidential run.
Regarding the issue of sunshine laws, a 501 c organization is the least transparent of any organization. Virtually nothing is required to be disclosed concerning its organization, membership or activities.
I recall that past efforts to circumvent sunshine laws such as Senator Clinton’s Health Care initiatives during the Clinton Administration were held by a federal court to be in violation of sunshine laws. Further, I also recall that any activities of such organizations was subject to FOIA requests.
I do not believe the President Elect can claim the cover of executive privilege, since he is not the President of the US at this time.
I would urge Judicial Watch to investigate this matter and pursue the appropriate legal channels to insure that the activities of Senator Obama are in full compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
Thank you

Yes, I agree with your understanding of what the word “original” implies. Bear in mind though, we are dealing with the most Machiavellian, nefarious, slippery, slimy crew to ever walk the face of the earth since the reign of the Third Reich.
In 2000, they gave us a glimpse of how clever they are with words. The SCOTUS ruling, (paraphrased) “Yes, everyone had the Right to Vote…but nowhere in the Constitution does it say that Right extends to “counting every vote.”
I’m afraid they have already crafted a similar response in preparation for Dec 1st. Berg has to throw them a curve….please God make it so!
We just have to keep on plugging away and not lose sight of our goal. Upending the SOB and the entire DNC…(quite an order for us..Davy and Goliahesque)
*Indy*- do you have a link to the info you posted in #57…
From someone who attained the US presidency from out of the Wilderness of nameless obscurity.. It seems Obama has been groomed for this position for some time (over 27 yrs if your info is correct) and as the Cloward-Piven Strategy suggests, the intention all along is to break the American way of life turning us into another 3rd world country with World Bankers and Wall St standing at the Gates.

What I’m saying if his own party back-stabbed him, what makes you think they will go along with this? They are trying to punish him, they don’t want him to be POTUS.

In ancient Rome, Every citizen was considered to be a lawyer. Each was expected to know enough about law to defend themselves and any fellow citizen. It was illegal to charge for legal serivices, and it was considered every citizen’s duty to go to court for a fellow individual who was wrongly accused, so as to promote justice. Justice was the goal that everyone was mandated to pursue.
The pursuit of Justice IS everyone’s responsibility. It is also the responsibility of each citizen to do their part to uphold the Constitution. If we feel our leaders have breached the law, especially gone against the Constitution, we need to speak up loudly. If Obama is not a citizen with the legal right to run for president or the senate, when he took his oath of office to become a senator, he purjured himself by promising to uphold the Constitution.

No one is listening to any watchdog groups in this country. If they were, that thug would never have been elected. The ones in power don’t listen, because they know they don’t have to listen. What consequences have they incurred by stomping all over us and any other group opposed to them? We have to act for ourselves. Nothing will change overnight, but we have to at least begin. I want to work on this. It’s past time for women to do this. No one is going to hand us our rights, especially when they have a vested interest in keeping us repressed. We can’t keep begging the political parties in existence to look out for us, we have to do this ourselves. We need to tag some PUMA members to begin contacting these other groups. I know I don’t have any say of an official nature here; I’m just another angry woman who walked away from the Democrats and never intends to go back. But I know, just reading your comment, that I’m not the only one who thinks we need to be daring and attempt to do what many others have tried and failed to do; form a viable third party, at the national level. I have always hated and despised politics–I’ve never been a joiner–but when I look into my daughter’s face, and see the pain and bewilderment there, I have all the courage and energy I need to work for this.

#164 Dances, I’ll have to concede. So do you think Sarah has a chance in 2012? Or will it be the same old thing?
Back to the lawsuits by Berg and Andy, let’s examine them. First, Berg files a lawsuit based on speculative internet rumors. He has no evidence, personally tells me that he is basing the suit on internet and Obama’s own words in his book. And I have called various agencies and there is nowhere on your application that you have to produce your BC. At one time, I actually saw BO’s application online but don’t know where but you didn’t have to state much.
As for Andy Martin, he’s not going to get anything either. The HI governor’s office told me that Obama would have to request it or a member of his family. Andy Martin calls himself the “Internet Powerhouse” and is trying to sell his book “Obama, the man behind the mask” which I have and it’s very good. The Supreme Court already denied Andy’s request and I doubt that on 11/18 he is going to see it. We can do whatever we want but if those Republican electors don’t care, we can write and call till the cows come home and they won’t do anything. I also got a letter from Rep. John Mica R-FL) and he told me he had no proof that Obama wasn’t a citizen and if he weren’t that it would have come up during the primaries.

Well, no where is it written we can’t do two thing at once. We just have to remember was is a nuanced issue we can’t do much about or change by force except to do the simplest thing, “TURN OFF” the TV and refuse to buy media sponsor’s products..and the “REAL” issue we can do something about.

My dream is:
1. We form a new party from all of the bloggers on both sides of the aisle who are disenchanted with the major cabals we call parties.
2. We seek out candidates for congressional midterms right now and start planning their campaigns, raising money, and laying the ground work necessary to elect at least a few of them. If we do our research right, we can find the weak districts where an independent might prevail. This is the job of the research department.
3. While the new party is forming, we need to be national. We need republicans, independents, greenies, libertarians, and democrats who hate the current situation to step outside their boxes and join us.
4. We need to invite sitting senators and representatives to divorce their affiliations and apply for membership in our new club.
5. We need to make sure the qualified and enthusiastic women among us are right in there at the top of the list of officials in our new party. We don’t need gender bias against men, but we don’t want them running it all either.
6. MOST IMPORTANT, WE NEED TO STOP PROCRASTINATING AND GET STARTED!

i was just thinking guys….is it possible that president bush and his adm will pull the mask off of That One during its last couple of weeks in power. im not a Bysh hater…at least he isnt a sexist or racist. so i can see cheney taking That One to task right in the end…but then Hillary didnt so maybe Im just dreaming.
atypical 11.08.08 at 12:45 pm
We saw that the media does know about BO but no one was/is honorable enough to speak up before the election or now. Charlie Rose interviews with Tom Brokaw and with the two Newsweek editors are not in the MSM at all. Why not?
Re Obama terms. He has said that he disagrees with the election process, that he may be in office for 10 years. I’d bet that Congress will try to rewrite the amendment limiting the presdidency to 2 terms.

it has nothing to do with mccain and not being republican enough….it comes simply down to racial and sexual politics…it worked on hillary and it worked on mccain. since tyhe gop has never been known to pull those cards it was something new they were not prepared for.

I heard on the news that the Rep. do NOT have a leader right now! I am just speculating – who knows??

Neither party appeals to me anymore. I’m with ya.
A party for middle class working Americans. No far right, no far left, no ties to corporations. Just a party for middle class working Americans who love the Constitution and common sense.

To answer the question does Sarah have a chance:
Only if we start backing her now. And I mean keeping after it.
Sarah offerd us a unique look at what can be, not what is. She is a more common and practical person than any who have come along in a long, long, long time. She has no corporate backers, she only has her common sense and inate ability to get things done. She seems to be fair and balanced in her approaches. I like the way she calls our country ‘America’ when she talks. Nobody in my living memory has used that word so effectively as has she.
We have several heroes in this election. Joe the Plumber, Sarah Palin, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, and PUMAs of all shapes and sizes. Rothschild is a little bit of an outsider to that group, as she is establishment politico. But she made a stand. Then there is Joe (I mind my own business) Lieberman. He is also unique in today’s political scene.
I celebrate these people, and us. They, and us, are the shining stars that will lead us out of this mess if we want it baddly enough.
The other two parties are too corrupt to be of any service to democracy. They are like well oiled robotic machines, devouring us all with their self serving mechanics. If we don’t disassemble them, they will continue to enslave and devour us.

where are all the Republicans…Well, for starters they are a bunch of old men… (I was as surprised as anyone to see Sarah on the ticket..) The Ass holes (those in control of the Party)are still trying to decide if Sarah was a help or hinderance!!
They would rather not rock the boat probably because they are screwing with something they don’t want the world to know about, too.
Sorry…I am really not anti men..but I hate being told that because I don’t have a penis I can’t do the job.

I heard that also. They are regrouping. They want to be a more of center party. Not left wing or right wing. I for one will never vote for another Democrat after this. I will never vote for a party that put that piece of poop in the White House, not to mention I do not want to be in the same party as the nut cases that voted for him.
SouthernGAL68 11.08.08 at 12:58 pm
What I find TYPICAL of BO is this … Over and over he said during his campaign that he was going to be NON-partison AND he was going to bring in NEW STAFF (NOT the USUAL Washington polit.) and everyone he has appointed or talked about appointing HAVE ALL WORKED IN WASHINGTON BEFORE! He is such a lier … when is everyone going to catch on???

FUNERAL
Did I miss it or didn’t Obama go to his grandmother’s funeral? This is the woman who really raised him (though didn’t teach him to respect women much, did she?). Why the heck wouldn’t he go?
WALMART WOMEN
Please make sure you haven’t eaten before reading further or you may barf. Yesterday I made the point that I thought women who love shopping at Walmart would come out in droves for Sarah/McCain, because of Sarah. But they didn’t.
Today I was at Walmart waiting in a line and two women were behind me, a grown woman and her mother, talking about Obama and how they had convinced others to vote for him. In particular they had told another family member how Obama would take care of everything and everyone get us out of two wars…I nearly laughed out loud but decided to let it go. These are typical of people, and I’m not singling out women for sure, who really believed every damned word this pretender said.
This will be the biggest disaster to America ever. And with his ego and hatred of criticism or anyone who dare to criticize him, it won’t be pretty!

All of those who want a new party to form, the one person I know of that is toying with the idea seriously is Lynn Forester de Rothschild. She has asked for input to future ventures. I have written to her a few times. She has answered once, and in a very positive way, though not completely committal.
she can be reached at lyn@together4us.com
Write to her and lay out the need for a new party, and for goodness sake, OFFER YOUR ASSISTANCE TO SET ONE UP, AND MEAN IT!

My dream is:
1. We form a new party from all of the bloggers on both sides of the aisle who are disenchanted with the major cabals we call parties.
————————————-
I realize you’re invested in forming a new party and all, but just to let you know up front, I’m not.
I lean more toward forming a formidable voting block and supporting candidates who are running for office, not running our own candidates (Murphy would be the exception) which is a daunting (and mega-expensive venture). Aside from that …
Forming a coalition of disenchanted / disenfranchised voters is fine for tackling certain broad tasks, but overall,
I don’t see how a coalition of dems, repubs, greens, inds, libertarians,etc. can work. Ones association with any party represents a mindset of personal and political positions, and thyy are often at odds with one another…
that’s the reason they exist. I just don’t see the anti-war wing of teh dem party supporting the republican cheerleaders of war, or the homphobic supporters of anti-GLBT rights working with the GLBT contigent. In a way, this board is a microcosm.

McCain was declared a natural born citizen because THAT is WHAT, HE IS, A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. McAIN WAS BORN OF AMERICAN PARENTS ON AN ARMY BSAE IN PANAMA on TERRITORY THAT BELONGED TO THE U.S.
I imagine some were questions as to his birth and so that is why Congress felt they needed to clarify the point.

GrumpyKat – I heard that! I am from and live in Louisiana. I read in our newspaper that our Gov. Bobby Jind. may be “one of the new Republican leaders”. Who knows??
I know one thing … Republicans had better find themselves some better campaign mangers that what MAC had! When did yall ever hear of fighting in the BO camp/campaign??? NEVER!
2ohiorepubs4hillary 11.08.08 at 1:03 pm
To those posters who mentioned pyschics predicting Obama will step down, exactly what would happen if he did step down before being sworn in? I’m not sure it would automatically go to Biden. I don’t see how it could be Hillary either.
It would have to go to the person getting the second-most votes for president, which would be McCain, but would he be stuck with Biden?

The repubs don’t vote for him???? “he’s not republican enough” so they allow BO to win———it’s all cockeyed,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Michelina, the Republicans stayed home. Turn out was much higher for both parties in 2004. The Republicans stayed home in disgust in 2006 as well… from what I can understand. But Carl Rove was calling plays from his corner and called this race for BO early. We on the sidelines could see the Republican leaders holding their noses for McCain. I have seen it posted around that Rove did this because of the cyclical nature of the economy. That it was in their interests to have the dems in power during a devastating downturn is believable.

#141 Heneri -
If THAT ONE was born in Kenya, I would find it very hard for him to have been ’smuggled’ out – one cannot just take a baby across borders without some kind of documentation.
My children had dual BC’s. One from the country they were born in and the second one from the US State Department (because both parents were US citizens). Each child had to be on a passport in order to travel. This seems awfully confusisng.
One thing that keeps popping in my head, is the possibility that Obama was not his biological father but Frank Marshall Davis (who was already married and could not acknowledge paternity). That might prove to be too embarrassing and there would be too much to retract, therefore the unwillingness to offer the necessary proof. MO did say that there was nothing to keep him from becoming the POTUS. Just another angle – not that I trust her words either.
I just wish this whole rotten mess could be resolved so that we can get on with the real issues at hand., i.e. how the election was stolen with dirty money. More relevant, I think, is that we should be FOLLOWING THE MONEY TRAIL!!!!
JMHO,
greta
atypical 11.08.08 at 1:18 pm
Right from the primaries it has been evident that Rove was working to help the Dems. We concluded that it was because they wanted BO as the weaker candidate, but even after BO pushed Hill out, the Repubs did little or nothing to help McCain. Hagel spoke glowingly of Obama, went with him on his world tour, and McCain refused to use the vast amount of negative information available to him in his fight against BO. There was no October surprise. McCain took public financing even after BO said he wouldn’t. Everything that has happened has seemed counter-intuitive.
I conclude, as I’ve said before, McCain was a foil, and the only candidate in this race for either party (for their own particular reasons) was BO.
An outside possibility might be that the present administration plans on using what they have known about BO’s ineligible status and it’s potential for fomenting constitutional crisis (or just rioting) as their way of declaring martial law and extending Republican tenure. Obviously it would have been simpler just to elect McCain/Palin, unless they thought they couldn’t control them.
Like I said above, there seems to be a shortage of honorable persons available to save the US from this cabal.

THE OBAMA COINS WERE PRINTED MONTHS AGO, MAYBE AROUND SEP, OR EVEN AUGUST. THEY HAD A TV ADD OUT ON THEM AND WERE TAKING ORDERS FOR THESE COINS MONTHS AGO. I LIVE IN OHIO AND SEEN IT ON TV. I THOUGHT THAT WAS RATHER ODD BUT WHAT ISN’T ODD IN THIS ELECTION.
tonkacatt 11.08.08 at 2:27 pm
Hi, just joined today. I will send in a donation like I did with other groups. I believe in trying to do something to correct the corruption that we will be living under now more worse than ever.
I am so shocked there will be no checks and balances at all now. I was hoping many people would be fired. I supported McCain during this election. I just couldn’t support the man I think is a fraud.
I had contacted the McCain campaign during the primaries about Barack’s certificate of live birth and the concerns that I felt were not being addressed concerning Obama’s eligibly. I ask if someone could ask to see his birth certificate. They only responded to say they had heard of these claims but were inclined not to discuss it any further. I brought up Berg’s lawsuit to them as well.
I contacted all of my senators and congress people in my state (Florida). Some did not answer. The few that did reply only said it was only rumors and they were in fear to bring anything up about it due to any appearance of causing race tensions.
I felt like then, it was because the officials in office are just afraid to bring it up knowing it could bring much chaos. Some think the unrest is more of the issue than protecting the US Constitution.
I called into Hannity’s show before the election to ask if they could help bring this issue up. The screen caller told me that they did not want to talk about this BC thing in fear it may cause more problems. I have to conclude to keep from losing my mind, that many in powerful places are afraid to hold onto this power keg. I read an article this morning that the news director for Fox has ask Hannity and others to go easy on Obama now he’s been elected (selected, IMO).
Thank you for making a good site for many people with opposing views while we try and work together to bring about good changes. I pray Obama doesn’t get away with this for too long. I hope he will be exposed to more people. It’s so odd, why not show the records? All I’d like to know. Thanks, take care to all.

Several viable questions were brought up in this thread. Most of the answers have been previously researched by bloggers and I’ve been desperately trying to access one of the sites that has a huge amount of information archived. (FreeRepublic.com). I’ve seen some PUMA’s posting over there too.
I’m afraid FreeRepublic has been hacked.
PUMA’s:
Be ever so careful and vigilant!!! I believe any website that is not bowing down to Obama will sooner or later be hacked.
I hope you have some very strong firewalls up.

First, Berg files a lawsuit based on speculative internet rumors. He has no evidence, personally tells me that he is basing the suit on internet and Obama’s own words in his book.
NO…ACTUALLY, he has a great deal of evidence…for one he has witness accounts of Obama being born in Kenya, including over 20 statements by Obama’s own family, he also has records from the hospital in Kenya…
he has the inconsistent statement of Obama’s sister claiming Obama was born in one hospital and Obama saying he was born in another (this was in Hawaii).
He has many public records showing Obama registered as a CITIZEN of Indonesia, which was NOT POSSIBLE if you were NOT a citizen to register that way in school…
He has records of Obama’s stating he was born in Kenya.
He is a very skilled attorney and DID not base this on rumor, but he is also going up against huge money and big interests to KEEP OBAMA where he is!
Berg CAN DO IT, if the SUPREME COURT rules according to the LAW!
Pretjene 11.08.08 at 8:35 pm
If THAT ONE was born in Kenya, I would find it very hard for him to have been ’smuggled’ out – one cannot just take a baby across borders without some kind of documentation.
He was BORN in KENYA, when his mother tried to get out at 9 months pregnant they DENIED her returning to Hawaii, she had O in Kenya and returned to Hawaii three weeks later after O was issued a medical clearance and a BC in Kenya and passport.
