OBAMA INELIGIBILITY - THE GOVERNMENT MUST BE PURGED

The Obama issue is about complicity, negligence, avarice and cowardice

Obama’s Ineligibility: The U.S. Government Must Be Purged

-Lawrence Sellin, May 24, 2011.   Canada Free Press

The present government of the United States is largely a blend of corruption and mismanagement. It no longer responds to or is trusted by a growing number of Americans.

 

Not being a natural born citizen, Barack Hussein Obama has never been eligible for the Presidency and he may have committed felonies both before and after occupying the nation’s highest office.

 

Yet, despite mounting evidence, not one member of Congress or anyone in the executive or judicial branches dares to speak up or initiate an investigation.

Why is that?

 

Choose your noun. The Obama issue is about complicity, negligence, avarice and cowardice.

 

There are likely many who are complicit in a cover-up, many who were derelict in their duty to screen Obama and many selfish individuals who love their power and privileges more than their country.

 

Smoking out Obama will be a tough and dirty business. None of our professional politicians want to soil their hands. They will leave the hard work to others, but, when it is safe to do so, they will express their faux outrage and indignation and claim credit for saving the country.

 

Cowards, sycophants and the greedy are not the kind of people worthy to lead a great nation.

 

Republican Senator Jim DeMint defined the problem we are facing:

“Americans know real change in Washington will never happen until we end the era of permanent politicians. As long as members of Congress have the chance to spend their lives in Washington, their interests will always skew toward spending taxpayer dollars to pay off special interest supporters, covering over corruption in the bureaucracy, fund-raising, relationship-building with lobbyists, and trading favors for pork; in short, amassing their own power.”

Similar opinions have also been expressed by Democrats, such as former Congresswoman Bella Abzug:

“The inside operation of Congress - the deals, the compromises, the selling out, the co-opting, the unprincipled manipulating, the self-serving career-building - is a story of such monumental decadence, I believe that if people find out about it they will demand an end to it.”

There is no better example of corruption than the current allegations against the “Princess of San Francisco”, former House Speaker, Nancy Pelosi.

 

Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and
prosecutes government corruption, announced that it has obtained documents from the Department of Defense (DOD) detailing her multiple requests for military air travel.

According to Judicial Watch, the emails from Pelosi’s staff reek of entitlement, privilege and a lack of concern about wasting taxpayer money. The former House Speaker treated the Air Force “like her personnel airline.”

 

That may be added to recent reports of the distribution of Obamacare waivers as possible political payoffs.

 

Nowadays the main activities of Congress seem to be blundering and plundering.

Theodore Roosevelt said:

“It is the duty of all citizens, irrespective of party, to denounce, and, so far as may be, to punish crimes against the public on the part of politicians or officials.”

Professional politicians may be elected by the people, but they are owned by the fat cats. It is the wealthy special interest groups for whom the Congress works and who sustain the entire professional political class.

 

Term limits may be the only way to break a cycle of corruption, but Congress and the lobbies strongly oppose them.

 

The US will not survive unless we as citizens understand that we alone are the guardians of the law and the Congress is only a vehicle for its implementation.

 

If we do not rise up against the usurpation of power and the endemic corruption of the professional political class, our silence will be construed as a surrender of our rights.

We must not allow Obama to run for re-election without a proper investigation of his background and the truth being revealed. If there is a conspiracy to defraud the American people, the guilty must be rooted out and punished.

 

Ordinary Americans must now act because the professional political class will never do so. It may become prudent to exercise our Second Amendment rights vigorously.

“Cowardice asks the question ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question ‘Is it politic?’ But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but because conscience tells one it is right.”—Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

PRESIDENTIAL ELIGIBILITY - THE SECOND CONGRESSIONAL RESEARCH SERVICE MEMO  COVERING OBAMA'S INELIGIBILITY HAVE FINALLY BEEN RELEASED TO THE PUBLIC
 
6/1/11
 
In reality, there is no mystery. Day-by-day, week-by-week and revelation by revelation, the empirical evidence accumulates that the man now occupying the White House may very well be plainly ineligible to do so. It only remains for the truth to finally catch up to him, as the truth always does. And yet legions of his supporters and sycophants are doing all they can to delay and postpone that day of reckoning. -  Joseph Demaio
 
 
As reported by Joseph Demaio on May 30, 2011 in the Post and Email, on April 3, 2009 the first Congressional Research Service (“CRS”) Memorandum authored by Jack Maskell, a Legislative Attorney in the CRS American Law Division and entitled “Qualifications for the Office of President of the United States and Legal Challenges to the Eligibility of a Candidate” and intended for distribution to members of Congress was published.  The memo tries to coverup the fact that Obama is not elegible to be a President of the U.S. 
 
As Demaio writes, according to the CRS – again, the federal agency claiming to be possessed of “the nation’s best thinking” – as long as a person’s parents are not in the official diplomatic service of a foreign nation here, anyone born to such parents on United States soil (or soil over which it exercises jurisdiction) will qualify as a ‘natural born Citizen’ of the United States and thus be eligible to be president. This means, of course, that anyone – from the “garden variety” undocumented pregnant immigrant seeking only employment here to support a family to any fanatical pregnant terrorist intent on the destruction of the nation as we know it – who can make it here and give birth here, can produce an offspring eligible to serve as president under the “natural born Citizen” clause of the Constitution.  This is obviously incorrect.
 
Below is a summary of the article published by Demaio which are linked below and can be read in their entirety there.
 
 

1. In order for a person to be born a “natural born Citizen” under Art. 2, Sec. 1, Cl. 5 – the “eligibility clause” of the Constitution as it was understood by the Founders under The Law of Nations by E. de Vattel, a legal scholar during the years the Constitution was conceived, drafted and executed – both such person’s parents must be, at that time, United States citizens and no U.S. Supreme Court case has held otherwise;

2. An April 3, 2009 Congressional Research Service (“CRS”) Memorandum authored by one Jack Maskell, a Legislative Attorney in the CRS American Law Division and entitled “Qualifications for the Office of President of the United States and Legal Challenges to the Eligibility of a Candidate” and intended for distribution to members of Congress either (a) innocently, but substantively, misreads, misconstrues and/or misapplies federal appellate and U.S. Supreme Court precedent, or (b) intentionally, and thus improperly (and possibly illegally), alters the meaning of precedent through substantive editing by grammatical ellipsis omission of material words, and thus facts, in two federal documents, to arrive at its conclusion that Barack H. Obama is, purportedly, eligible to be president as a “natural born citizen;”

3. A June 5, 2009 Congressional Research Service “Transmittal” message to a member of Congress from one Jerry Mansfield, an “Information Research Specialist” in the CRS “Knowledge Services Group,” misinforms the congressman by stating that questions about Mr. Obama’s birth certificate have been “ultimately resolved” in favor of his eligibility based on a series of biased and badly-skewed Internet postings;

4. A second Congressional Research Service memorandum, dated March 18, 2010 and authored, again, by Mr. Jack Maskell, and entitled “Birth Certificates of Presidential Candidates and Standing to Challenge Eligibility,” but without mentioning or referencing the April 3, 2009 memo, commits the same conceptual errors of the prior April 3, 2009 memo and thus merely compounds and perpetuates the problem;

5. The issue of Barack H. Obama’s eligibility to serve as president under the “natural born citizen” clause of the Constitution thus far remains unaddressed on the merits by the U.S. Supreme Court and, accordingly, remains unresolved as well.
