Neil D Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 Oooooh Reeeed woood...... Wasn't it you that was hoping to get Obama of office due to his Birth Certificate? Here is your answer...from the conservative Supreme Court... Mr Obama's father was born in Kenya An appeal claiming Barack Obama is too British to become president of the United States has been rejected by the US Supreme Court. The lawsuit claimed he should be disqualified because, it claimed, he acquired the same British citizenship that his father had when he was born. This meant he was not a "natural-born" US citizen, as the US constitution requires, it alleged. Mr Obama's birth certificate shows he was born in Hawaii. The issue was addressed by Mr Obama's aides during his presidential campaign, when they posted online his birth certificate - which was verified by Hawaiian officials. This lawsuit, brought by retired New Jersey lawyer Leo Donofrio, gained a high profile because it was distributed by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to other justices for discussion. It conceded that Mr Obama was born in Hawaii - but contended that he still held foreign citizenship at birth. It read: "Since Barack Obama's father was a citizen of Kenya, and therefore subject to the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom at the time of Senator Obama's birth, then Senator Obama was a British citizen 'at birth', just like the framers of the Constitution, and therefore, even if he were to produce an original birth certificate proving he were born on US soil, he still wouldn't be eligible to be president." Kenya was part of British East Africa until it received its independence in 1963. A decision not to grant a writ of certiorari - the legal term for the declaration that the justices will hear the case - means that a lower court ruling that dismissed the lawsuit can stand.

Woody Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 I think the Obama/Biden team would have to concede due to fraud. Then they would name Sarah Palin as President. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

Moderators Bravus Posted December 8, 2008 Moderators Posted December 8, 2008 Given the belief that God sets up the world's rulers, I think he's already decided this one. Quote Truth is important
Woody Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 Good one Bravus. But according to Fox New tonight ... there is still one more case pending the issue of whether Obama was actually born in Hawaii or not. So, perhaps God did not set up Obama and he is just an imposter for Sarah Palin. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.

I think it is one thing when HE decides of His own volition.... It comes to me that REQUIRING God to play politics, is a bit presumptuous, in the least...

I am sure Sarah Palin would apprecite your staunch continued support, but I think you are still spending too much time with the poppies if you think she would be in, in place of him...... (and I hope you don't see this comment as harsh cuz I don't mean to be mean....just light hearted.) Quote
