I’ll be right until the day you see Obama in court for draft dodging. I wouldn’t hold your breath if I were you.

How is this for a big deal. In 1970 the US Supreme Court set a statute of limitation (SOL) for failure to register for the draft.
U.S. Supreme Court
TOUSSIE v. UNITED STATES, 397 U.S. 112 (1970)
397 U.S. 112
TOUSSIE v. UNITED STATES
CERTIORARI TO THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SECOND CIRCUIT
No. 441.
Argued January 14, 1970
Decided March 2, 1970
In Toussie's case, the Court declared that although failing to sign up is a grave offense, the language of the draft law does not make it a continuing one. Judge Hugo Black speaking for the majority said, "We feel that the threat of criminal punishment and the five-year statute of limitations is a sufficient incentive to encourage compliance," Justice Hugo Black further suggested suggested that if Congress had intended failure to register to be a continuing crime, it should have said so explicitly.
There is nothing there for failing to register for the draft.

Debbie used the FOI to acquired an Obama SSS registration which may be a fake. Might be something here.

Kenyans need not register though right? Or should I say non-US citizens in general.

As I recall, the selective service form was received directly from the selective service, by way of a Freedom of Information Act. How could Obama have forged this document?

Judge for yourself.

How is this for a big deal. A statute of limitations on being punished criminally is not the same thing as a prohibition on those who did not register being hired by the government.
Besides, I think the no hire provision was put in *after* 1970, and thus this ruling would not apply to it.
Justice Hugo Black further suggested suggested that if Congress had intended failure to register to be a continuing crime, it should have said so explicitly.
If I'm remembering right, Congress thus did set a "continuing" penalty.

Or should I say non-US citizens in general.Federal law requires that men who are at least 18 years old, but not yet 26 years old, must be registered with Selective Service. This includes all male non-citizens within these age limits who permanently reside in the United States. Men with "green cards" (lawful permanent residents) must register. Men living in the United States without INS documentation (undocumented aliens) must also register. But men cannot register after reaching age 26.
From U.S. Department of Homeland Security, US Citizenship and Immigration Services
So, Kenyan, Indonesian, natural born or naturalized, legal or illegal, all must register for the draft.

Really. We now have case law that says you are wrong by courtesy of a Federal Judge in Boston on January 2009. I don't think you understand a precedent has been sst that has to be overturned for you to be right. This is a VERY BIG DEAL because the SCOTUS has to overturn the precedent. Not an easy thing to do.

You are not remembering right. Cite the case. You will not be able too.
