The following YouTube animation is from the transcript of Orly Taitz's presentation in Brockhausen v. Andrade.

Because it shows the level of legal 'expertise' that is wasting money and time from electing conservative candidates. I know there are many who believe that "natural born citizen" makes Obama ineligible because either A) his father wasn't a US citizen, or B) he was born in Kenya.
But you cannot win in court unless you think things thru PRIOR to getting there. Questions like standing and jurisdiction are part and parcel of a lawsuit, and going about it wrong wastes time and money - while exposing conservatives to liberal ridicule.
Hopefully folks will listen, and understand why volume of lawsuits is a poor substitute for a thoughtful lawsuit.

DC Knows that Obama is Ineligible for Office http://bit.ly/dDgP3a All 3 branches of Fed. Gov. know
The issue is real and will never go away until answered.
Obama should immediately release all of the best evidence that would prove or disprove that he is a natural born citizen:
** original long form birth certificate
** Passports
** college applications, and scholarship applications
** selective service records
** social security numbers used in his lifetime
** a record of name changes
** record of his repatriation to the U.S.
** adoption records
** school records and citizenship claimed on those records
An honest man would be **HONORED** to prove that he was a natural born citizen. He would promptly release all of the very best and certifiable evidence.
A guilty fraud ties the issue up in court, and misuses Department of Justice resources and U.S. attorney time to prevent discovery.
By the way....Obama used Department of Justice resources and U.S. attorneys at a time when plots were being laid to KILL soldiers on the base and in recruitment centers, and blow planes out of the sky. If Obama is playing a political dirty trick, the American people will not be amused.
Rush wrote today in the Wall Street Journal, “I insist that the temporary inhabitants of high political office comply with the Constitution,...”
WHAT A PHONY!!!!
I support Arizona’s new law, and wish it called for ALL birth, travel and educational records to be made public by any candidate. However, that wouldn’t float, since it would add to the Constitution.
I agree that any honorable man would release it without hesitation or qualm.
Rush is actually one of the few that have teased the issue up now and then.
We all know there is a REASON why the talk show guys and FOx treat it as radioactive.
They have been warned.
But that will shift.
The legal prowess of Orly Taitz is just ... well, unequaled.

Every birther thread summed up into an 8 minute dialogue.
Good man. Thoughtful post and correct. These fellows are barking up the wrong tree, wasting valuable energy better spent electing conservatives, and they’ve given the Left some life by protecting Obama with looney rightwing coverage.
You’re not stupid at all.
Yes, they are phonies. I include Bill O’Reily and Glenn Beck in this with Limbaugh and some others. I stopped watching them and reading their stuff when they began to ridicule folks who are asking legitimate questions.
Perhaps the phony debate between the libs and the conservatives is to keep up from seeing and hearing what is really going on.
Obama’s father was never a US Citizen, and as such, Obama II is not a Natural Born Citizen, and is not qualified. We have gone thru this...are you still saying that he is?????
Both parents must be US Citizens, and he needs to be born in the US to be Natural Born. He was not, so is not.
Everything else discussed, are curiosities. The one fact, not hidden is that his father is not a US Citizen.
Discussion over. He is a usurper, and needs to be removed, not impeached, from office.
“Both parents must be US Citizens, and he needs to be born in the US to be Natural Born.”
No, that is not the law. Nor is that what 50 states, voters and Congress believe, and it doesn’t seem to be what any court to date believes...
You cannot define your terms on your own and expect anyone else to obey your interpretation.
We have gone thru this before. The constitution states that the POTUS must be NBC. Obama is not.
The Constitution does not define NBC. Therefor, it cannot be your authority for saying Obama is not a natural born citizen.
We have gone thru this before....many, many, times.

Eric Holders Department of Justice continues to deploy taxpayer funded attorneys around the country to file dismissals on behalf of Obama, denying all American citizens access to the courts as a peaceful remedy, which only fuels the fire of discontent and the questions about Obama persist.
Michelle Obama states that Kenya is Baracks home country. She knows, after twenty years with Barack. The Ambassador or Kenya has confirmed the same His family friends all know it, and are in fact quite proud of the fact that Americans had no hesitation in electing a black man from Kenya as President of the United States.
The video is hilarious, since it humorously dramatizes, from an actual court transcript, how Taitz simply flies by the seat of her pants, ignoring all established rules, law, logic and reason — and so do these threads, since most who comment totally ignore the subject of the post but instead launch into the same tired pseudo-evidence endlessly listed on every thread, while villainizing the same justice system that uses rules, law, logic and reason to form its opinions.
It’s the childish equivalent of “nah, nah, nah — I can’t hear you” while sticking one’s fingers in ears.
Look to the writing of the founding fathers. It is clear that the definition of 'natural-born citizen' was well understood by those present at the ratification of our Constitution. Have you seen the recent discovery of writings by David Ramsey?
