Welcome to the American Revolution II
But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.

Until Obama conducts himself with "transparency", this will probably never go away, and it will distract him from the important work of the presidency. Its sad that a man can be elected with so many questions about his identity remaining unanswered.

Now, we find out that its entirely possible that he could have gotten an official birth certificate through the Late Birth Certificate Of Hawaiian Birth Program before 1972.

http://hawaii.gov/health/vital-records/vital-records/hawnbirth.html:

“The Certificate of Hawaiian Birth program was established in 1911, during the territorial era, to register a person born in Hawaii who was one year old or older and whose birth had not been previously registered in Hawaii. The Certificate of Hawaiian Birth Program was terminated in 1972, during the statehood era."

Through this program, Obama could have been born on Mars and still received a birth certificate in Hawaii.

And, does anyone actually believe that if its as easy for 20 million illegal aliens to forge documents, that the president of the U.S. would not be able to. Good grief. http://www.opednews.com/populum/uploaded/obama-birth-certificate-11-20090620-3.jpg

Obama Birth Certificate Story Is Still Alive

Joseph Farah Explains Why Obama Birth Certificate Story Is Still Alive

WASHINGTON, July 27 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The following was released today by Joseph Farah of WorldNetDaily.com:

How did a supposedly "bogus" story questioning Barack Obama's eligibility for the presidency get to the top of the news budgets of every major media outlet in the country?

It didn't happen by accident

Three months ago, Joseph Farah, editor and chief executive officer of WorldNetDaily.com, the largest independent news source on the Internet, hatched a plan to do just that.

Frustrated by the lack of coverage of what he considered to be an issue of extraordinary importance, Farah launched a national billboard campaign asking the question: "Where's the birth certificate?"

"The plan was to create some buzz -- to get people talking about a grave constitutional issue," he explained. "Before that campaign began, this really was a dead story, other than in WND. Now, every major media outlet is covering it -- if only in covering the tracks of their previous ineptitude and negligence."

The facts are simple, says Farah

No controlling legal authority in America ever checked to see if Obama was a "natural born citizen" as the Constitution requires. They took at face value Obama's story as told in his autobiography and accepted a document he released that could never prove his eligibility.

Farah says the release of Obama's long-form birth certificate is vitally necessary even to begin proper vetting as to his constitutional qualifications.

As WorldNetDaily.com has reported, Obama has also failed to release his school records, his Occidental College records, his Columbia University records, his Columbia thesis, his Harvard Law School records, his Harvard Law Review articles, his scholarly articles from the University of Chicago, his passport, his medical records and his files from his years as an Illinois state legislator.

McCain Investigated Obama Birth Claims

McCain Investigated Obama Birth Claims



Lawyers for former presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., investigated President Barack Obama’s citizenship during the 2008 campaign, according to a report in Political Wire.

It’s the issue that won’t go away for the President – where is his birth certificate?

Lou Dobbs, the anchor and managing editor of CNN's “Lou Dobbs Tonight,” recently revived the issue on his show, complaining to his audience that the certificate of live birth he was holding in his hand at the time referred to another document – a so-called long-form birth certificate.

Dobbs went to note that in many states, a person cannot get a driver’s license without the original long-form birth certificate.

Political Wire pointed to a recent report in the Washington Independent where Trevor Potter and other lawyers for Sen. John McCain's presidential campaign were questioned about whether the McCain camp looked into the issue.

"To the extent that we could, we looked into the substantive side of these allegations,” Potter explained. “We never saw any evidence that then-Senator Obama had been born outside of the United States. We saw rumors, but nothing that could be sourced to evidence. There were no statements and no documents that suggested he was born somewhere else.

“On the other side, there was proof that he was born in Hawaii,” Potter added. “There was a certificate issued by the state's Department of Health, and the responsible official in the state saying that he had personally seen the original certificate. There was a birth announcement in the Honolulu Advertiser, which would be very difficult to invent or plant 47 years in advance."

Potter, who served as general counsel to the 2008 and 2000 McCain Presidential campaigns, further noted to the Washington Independent that he and his staff were very much aware of the flurry of law suits filed to get the original Obama birth certificate made public.

“We monitored the progress of these lawsuits against the Obama campaign,” recounted Potter. “The McCain campaign faced a series of lawsuits like this, too, alleging that he could not be president because he was born in the Panama Canal Zone. Both campaigns took the position that these plaintiffs lacked standing.”

McCain, a member of a transient U.S. military family who was born at a U.S. military hospital in the Zone, later got a legal opinion stating that he fulfilled the Constitutional requirements of being natural born.

Obama were is your real birth certificate

Hawaii again declares Obama birth certificate real

HONOLULU — State officials in Hawaii on Monday said they have once again checked and confirmed that President Barack Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen, and therefore meets a key constitutional requirement for being president.

Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said she hoped to end lingering rumors about Obama's birthplace.

"I ... have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen," she said in a brief statement. "I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago."

So-called "birthers" — who claim Obama is ineligible to be president because, they argue, he was actually born outside the United States — have grown more vocal recently on blogs and television news shows.

Fukino issued a similar press release Oct. 31, but was prompted to speak out again because of the renewed attention on Obama's beginnings. Hawaii's Health Department has been flooded in recent weeks with questions from individuals and several national TV news networks asking for proof that Obama was indeed born in Hawaii.

"They just keep asking over and over and over again," Health Department spokeswoman Janice Okubo said.

The Constitution states that a person must be a "natural-born citizen" to be eligible for the presidency. Birthers contend that Obama's birth certificate is a fake, and many say he was actually born in Kenya, his father's homeland. They've challenged his citizenship in court.

One widely circulated YouTube clip of a town hall meeting showed a Republican congressman getting booed for saying Obama is a citizen. Talk show host Rush Limbaugh and CNN's Lou Dobbs have also raised the issue, and 10 Republican members of Congress co-sponsored a bill that would require future presidential candidates to provide a copy of their original birth certificate.

However, it appears Congress has moved on and has accepted Obama's island birthplace. The U.S. House on Monday unanimously approved a resolution recognizing and celebrating the 50th anniversary of Hawaii becoming the 50th state. A clause was included that reads: "Whereas the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961."

State law bars the release of a certified birth certificate to anyone who does not have a tangible interest.

However, Obama's birth certificate along with birth notices from the two Honolulu newspapers were brought forward even before he took office. But that's done nothing to shake the belief by many Obama critics that the president was born abroad.

Gibbs: Birth Certificate Controversy is “Made-Up Fictional Nonsense”

July 27, 2009 3:18 PM

Whether by Snopes, Politifact, or Factcheck.org, those in the business of gauging the truth have definitively stated that President Obama was born in the U.S., in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.

The campaign last year provided a copy of his certificate of live birth, as issued by the state of Hawaii.


Last October, Hawaii state health director Dr. Chiyome Fukino issued a statement: "There have been numerous requests for Sen. Barack Hussein Obama’s official birth certificate. State law prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record. Therefore I, as director of health for the state of Hawaii, along with the registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama's original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”

Both of Honolulu’s major newspapers, the Advertiser and the Star Bulletin have provided, from their archives, birth announcements from that week: “Mr. and Mrs. Barack H. Obama, 6085 Kalanianaole Highway, son, Aug. 4."

And yet, for whatever reason, some persist in believing that the President, despite all evidence to the contrary, was born outside the U.S.

Today at the White House briefing, press secretary Robert Gibbs was asked by liberal talk radio host Bill Press if there was anything he could say to make the “birthers” go away.

"No," he said. "The God’s honest truth is no."

Gibbs said he almost hesitated to even bring it up in the “august” setting of the White House press room, and then decried the "made-up fictional nonsense of whether or not the president was born in this country."

"If I had some DNA it wouldn't assuage those who don’t believe he was born here," Gibbs said, talking about how he posted the president's birth certificate on-line last year to make the story go away, to no avail. “The President was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, the 50th state of the greatest country on the face of the earth.”

Gibbs said there were 10,000 more important issues than to be debating a the president’s citizenship, “which has been proven ad nauseam.”

Why does it keep coming up? Gibbs was asked.

"Because for $15 you can get an internet address and say whatever you want," Gibbs said.

And yet this is a story that persists – aided in no small way, White House officials say, by Republican members of Congress who have introduced legislation to require future presidential candidates to present copies of their birth certificates “to establish that the candidate meets the qualifications.”

“What you’re doing is appeasing the nutcases,” Chris Matthews said to Rep. John Campbell, R-Calif., one of the legislators in question. “You’re verifying the paranoia out there.” He held up the copy of the birth certificate provided last year by the Obama campaign and told Campbell to “mail this birth certificate to the wacko wing of your party.”

Asked about the birthers, Liz Cheney on CNN last week tried to explain the sentiment, saying, “one of the reasons you see people so concerned about this is people are uncomfortable” to have a “President so reluctant to defend the nation overseas.” People are “uncomfortable with an American president who seems afraid to defend America.”

James Carville said Cheney “refuses to say this is ludicrous because she actually wants to encourage these people to believe this.”

Other Republican congressmen clearly find it a nuisance. Here’s Rep. Mike Castle, R-Del., trying to talk to Sussex County citizens about health care reform.

Conservative talk radio host Michael Medved today told NPR’s On Point that “conservatives need to speak out against it and be clear and not play games like Liz Cheney was doing. It is a fringe movement which is now poisoning and threatening the Republican Party."




…but to many in the White House it’s no joking matter.

Obama's socialism

Professor is a Genius--
GREAT LESSON IN GOVERNMENT


As the late Adrian Rogers said, "you cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/photos/uncategorized/2009/02/26/professor_0226.jpg
An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class.



That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.

The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan".

All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A.

After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.

As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little. The second test average was a D! No one was happy.

When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.

All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.

Could not be any simpler than that.
