We need to move beyond the pettiness and focus on rebuilding the conservative movement. Lawsuits don’t win mandates from the American people.

Presidential eligibility is not petty. Defending The Constitution is not petty.

You are calling the United States Constitution “petty” and are trying to say you are a “conservative”?? NO conservative ever thinks of the Constitution as petty.

The Citizens of this Country demanding to know if the President of their Country is Constitutionally eligible is petty??

Wow, I wonder how much more you are willing to give up without a fight.

This is not pettiness, but actually a significant Constitutional provision.

Why did the founding fathers require that a President, the highest official in the land, be naturally born here?

It is because these shrewd individuals realized that there is a higher tendency for someone who was born here to have a higher sense of duty and patriotism toward our country. Always true? No, but it is far more than just a symbol or as you say it “petty”.

Funny how libs are quick to throw a lawsuit at the GOP (seems right before an election to cause them to possibly lose) for sometimes the most ridiculous things but it is us who are petty when we talk about doing the same thing, except this is REALLY important.

If you disregard the Constitution in this case, why not do it in all cases?

That's not the point: I have some serious questions;

1. Who is this man? He did not just stand up in the senate and decide to run for president.

2. Who is behind this man? Why the meteoric rise? Who is pulling the strings?

3. Where did his money come from?

4. Why is his birth certificate so secret? I have no problem showing mine. What is he hiding?

5. ACORN: His campaign gave them 800,000 dollars for stageing? Please.

6. Why wont they release their donor list?

7. Why is his background so sketchy?

We cant just forget about these questions. Something is just not right here. I can accept Biden, Kerry, or heck even Reid as my president because they are pretty much an open book.
