A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging Barack Obama's qualifications to be president.
U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick on Friday night rejected the suit by attorney Philip J. Berg, who alleged that Obama was not a U.S. citizen and therefore ineligible for the presidency. Berg claimed that Obama is either a citizen of his father's native Kenya or became a citizen of Indonesia after he moved there as a boy.
Obama was born in Hawaii to an American mother and a Kenyan father. His parents divorced and his mother married an Indonesian man.
Surrick ruled that Berg lacked standing to bring the case, saying any harm from an allegedly ineligible candidate was "too vague and its effects too attenuated to confer standing on any and all voters."
What did Surrick use as untainted evidence that Obama was born in Hawaii as part of his justification for his ruling. Since that was one of the very qeustions before his court to use that in his answer in denying the suit just doesn't make any sense. I find it very offending and downright scary to hear from the bench where justice is supposed to be blind to hear that someone that could be an ineligble candidate is to vague or that having one is of so little importance that there is any harm to voters at large. What is the man thinking? We've all heard where there is smoke there could be fire. When you start adding up everything surrounding Obama-from unsavory associations over long periods of time to the near total blackout of any official background information backed by hard evidence any objective observer quite naturally could come to the conclusion that there just might be something there worth looking at deeply and ferreting out the truth. Why in this one case is there so much effort to keep information secret. I want to know. I think something smells.
Untrue?! How does anyone know. Obama at every step does everything in his power to keep from providing information that every citizen has the right to know and needs to evaluate in order to make an intelligent decision. From a one page doctor's note on his health to college transcrips-to providing something as simple as an original birth certificate. I can't believe that potentially having an illegal alien sitting in the white house as our president and the most powerful position in the world does not raise itself to the level of being harmful to the citizens of this country. What is the problem in just finding out the truth whatever it is and moving forward appropriately.
When we will not look at facts whatever they may be to make intelligent decisions that is when it truly is: TOO BAD--SO SAD
