OBAMA CONSTITUTIONAL CRISIS – MUST READ UPDATE – 69 DAYS & COUNTING
I said yesterday that this is not going away.
Please go directly to Natural Born Citizen and read about the law suit currently pending in front of the Supreme Court (Justice Souter) as it relates to Obama’s eligibility to have run for the office of POTUS and to hold that same position.
As discussed yesterday the suit was brought by Leo Donofrio, a retired attorney. In the suit he has sued Nina Mitchell Wells, Secretary of State of the State of New Jersey, in the Superior Court of New Jersey demanding that as the Secretary of State that she execute her statutory and Constitutional duties to police the security of ballots in New Jersey from fraudulent candidates ineligible to hold the office of President of the United States due to their not being “natural born citizens” as enumerated in Article 2, Section 1, of the US Constitution.
Mr. Donofrio’s post on his blog goes into great detail about the law suit he has filed and discusses a post on another blog by Jeff Schreiber, a legal writer and law student. If you have never visited Jeff’s blog, America’s Right, you would not know the following.
I have never met Jeff, but have found myself drawn to his blog because his writing (in my estimation) is fairly balanced as he tries to help those of us who are not attorneys make sense of this legal mess.
I cannot comment on the legal merits on either side, however, I can say thank God we have people in this country like Leo Donofrio and Jeff Schreiber who are working so hard to insure our Constitution is upheld.

Thank you!
PUMAs you need to donate as much as you can to both Donfrio and Berg. I’m sure they will win.
sportsone234, thank you for being on top of this issue, finding some of the finest links and stories related to Obama’s citizenship. Your blog has become a daily stop for me. Kudos, and keep up the good work.
Yes, thank you for the correction. I will amend the post!
Article 1 of the Constitution deals with the Legislative Branch, and Section 2 of Article 1 is the House.
I think you mean Article 2, Section 1.
Relevant passage:
“No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”
Since Barrack Obama was born in Hawaii, he is a natural born citizen. Regardless of who his father is, birth in the US makes you a citizen, even if your parents are not. And, last I checked, Hawaii was one of the states 47 years ago (since 1959, though a territory since 1898). So, the only Constitutional Crisis that these brave lawyers are fighting is one in their collective imagination.
