How Long Can Supremes Avoid Eligibility?
WND ^ | 02 June 2012 | Bob Unruh

Posted on 06/02/2012 8:05:13 PM PDT by Flotsam_Jetsome

The petition was filed on behalf of Keyes and Drake, candidates on the 2008 ballot for president and vice president, and Markham Robinson, an elector for the state of California in 2008.

As candidates during 2008, Keyes and Drake “had an interest in having a fair competition for those positions. This interest is akin to the interest of an Olympic competition, where one of the competitors in an athletic competition is found to be using performance enhancing drugs, but is not removed.”

The case explains that in such cases, “all of the athletes who had trained for the event legitimately are harmed if that disqualified contestant remains, as the contestants would not be competing on a level playing field.”

“Obama entered this race without having met the eligibility requirements for the office of president of the United States, and, as a result, Keyes and Drake have been injured, because they did not have fair competition for the office.”

To the government argument that third-party candidates really aren’t hurt because they couldn’t win anyway, Kreep writes: “Does the law, therefore, provide opportunities for, and encourage, majority party presidential candidates to skirt, or ignore, election rules and laws, since, according to respondents, third party presidential challenges would never have standing to challenge?

“Such a result would never be acceptable in the jurisprudence of this court,” he says.

And, Kreep noted, third-party candidates have included H. Ross Perot and George Wallace, who had an impact on the general election.

Sure looks to me like they’re going to be able to run out the clock.

"Sure looks to me like they’re going to be able to run out the clock."

You may very well be right, at least in terms of avoiding ouster before the elections this fall. Five months is an eternity in politics, however. Literally anything can happen between now and November.

Arpio's Cold Case Posse could give their next report on their findings, said to be "shocking," any day now.

Additionally, there is a judge in Florida who has allowed discovery to go forward on the two-parent aspect of natural born citizenship.

I thought this was interesting concerning judge Terry Lewis:

Klayman told WND that during a hearing today on discovery issues in the case, Lewis noted that while Klayman’s brief cited a U.S. Supreme Court’s decision defining “natural born citizen” as the offspring of two citizens of the nation, the White House’s arguments provided no citations.

We'll see. Or not. Either way, it's been one heck of an intellectual journey researching all of this stuff. Fascinating in a horrific, outrage-inspiring way.

They’re waiting until he is defeated in the November elections, then they’ll proceed to say he was not eligible in the first place (after the fact).

I agree with your scenario. My belief is that SCOTUS knew about his eligibility problems from the get-go but wanted to avoid political disruption. Let the voters remove BO, they will do the cleanup work.

Of course, there is the little matter of two seats on the SCOTUS having to be vacated because they were filled by the usurper's appointees.

Drudge had something up yesterday about Jill Biden saying "Joe will make a great President."

Supposedly for 2016.

As well as the prosecution of forging state and federal documents...I’m wondering if the citizens of the US can file a class action civil lawsuit against the fraud to ensure he does not benefit financially from “selling his story”.

Yeah, I saw that. Since "Obama" failed to demonstrably qualify for office by the time of inauguration, under the Twentieth Amendment Section 3, Biden has technically been president since 20 January 2009 from my understanding.

Perhaps that's why the swearing-in ceremony was "flubbed" by Chief Justice Roberts. . .

Yes.

When I watched the video of Biden's swearing-in, I heard Justice Stevens address him as "Mr. President" (almost with an audible chuckle).

You will recall that Biden did NOT flub his oath.
