He doesn’t have an injury due to Obama’s eligibility, but due to his refusal to deploy. That does NOT create ‘standing’ to challenge Obama’s eligibility.

Since Obama is the presumed President, showing he is ineligible today would not change the legality of the orders given to Lakin, and thus Obama’s eligibility is not relevant to the case.

That has been pointed out many times over the last 4-5 months, but birthers don’t want it to be true so they keep ignoring it - just as they screamed a few months ago that the military judge would have no choice but to allow Lakin access to Obama’s birth certificate.

In other words "He won".

We are no longer a nation of laws, if your opinion holds.

As much as I hate to say it, unless an order is directly against the Constitution, one has to follow it. Obama relies heavily on the input of advisers and the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

If Obama says “Do it,” and someone says “Yes sir,” then the order they pass down is legitimate, since that originating military officer is legitimate. That is where the trail begins, and where one must not question authority when the order in and of itself is reasonable and constitutional.

Whether Obama is ineligible or not, discipline must be maintained within the ranks of the military. Otherwise, you would have yahoos from here to eternity questioning every single thing they were told to do.
