Thread: What if Obama is ineligible?

What if Obama is ineligible?

I've been asked the question dozens and dozens of times recently: "What if Obama is ineligible, then what? What would it mean for the country? Could the nation withstand the shock and the upheaval of unseating the first black president?"

What the questioners are talking about is not the constitutional procedure for removing an ineligible president from office. They are talking instead about the real-world ramifications. Often, there is the suggestion that there would be race riots in major cities.

When I first encountered this question, I dismissed it as irrelevant, speculative, placing the cart before the horse.

But the more I run into it, the more I realize this nagging thought might indeed be the root of much of the resistance to a full examination of the facts.

I don't know what would happen across America if Obama were to be found ineligible.

I don't know, and, in a sense, I don't really care.

What I care about is truth and justice.

What I care about is the Constitution.

What I care about is what's right.

What I care about is preserving the integrity of American political institutions.

That's what I've always cared about, and that has been my motivation for standing virtually alone in the media in pressing the eligibility issue.

I don't even know that Barack Obama is ineligible. I simply believe it is imperative that we make him prove it to the American people.

What would be worse – some temporary social upheaval resulting from the political system correcting itself after an error or the fundamental breakdown of the political system for all time?

That's really the choice we're facing in deciding whether or not to uphold and enforce the Constitution without respect to whose interests might be hurt or how emotions might be affected.

America is the world's great experiment in self-government. We can either uphold the principles that have permitted liberty to flourish, or we can sacrifice them for what seem like pragmatic, short-term goals.

Personally, I want to see America endure – not just through my lifetime, but through the lifetimes of my children and grandchildren.

I don't want to see America fundamentally changed through fraud and deceit.

So far, those who have suggested we look the other way rather than address the question of Barack Obama's eligibility for office have won the day. How do we like the results so far? Is America winning as a result? Is America better off today than it was one year ago? Are America's political and economic and cultural institutions stronger now?

Look around you.

Watch the town hall meetings.

Americans are not happy campers.

They don't like the fact that their interests and their constitutionally guaranteed liberties are being ignored.

One U.S. senator said this week America is on the verge of revolution now.

There's definitely something in the air.

Maybe a better question might be: Can we make it through three more years of Obama? Will there be anything left worth saving? Will we recognize the country by the time 2012 rolls around?

Sometimes the truth can hurt. But I don't believe seeking the truth can ever be wrong.

That's what I'm advocating. That's what I'm doing. I believe it was the right thing to do to hold hearings on the constitutional eligibility of John McCain last year – even though he was well-known, a long-time U.S. senator and even a previous presidential candidate.

I think the same due diligence should have been applied to Obama, a little-known, recently elected U.S. senator who admits he was a subject of the United Kingdom the day he was born.

Let's see those papers.

Let's learn more about this man.

Let's see if he has told us the truth.

Let's determine why he has held back so much of his personal history.

Let's finally answer the question: "Where's the birth certificate?"

no doubt there

Our founders were genius. A potential POTUS must have total allegiance to this country. This is why one must be born on American soil to a citizen father and a citizen mother to be eligible for POTUS. There can be no dual allegiances. At the time of his birth, BO's father was a British citizen . This is established and documented, even in BO's own words. Why do you think that he has spent so much money to have his records sealed? He is a usurper and a fraud. What if Kim Jong Il bore a son who was birthed on American soil...would we not worry about the son's allegiance??

It's going to be his downfall, that or the Fed audit.
To me, if that is proved then we can cancel money projects and fill up the jails.
It kills me, he talks all lies and exact opposites and he only says I "misspoke" to clear everything up? NO!!!!
There's a lot of crooks in that Whitehouse. I bet since the weasel Richardson got his case cleared, no doubt with Whitehouse influence, that now Obama will appoint the fool Immigration Czar .... Watch.
Then there's Charlie Rangel?? He's a piece of work.
He should be penalized by fines, and losing his position AND HEALTHCARE.
