I’m an originalist, also, but I don’t think your legal argument holds water in regards to Obama being a natural born citizen. That’s why challenges to it haven’t gone anywhere, and will continue to go nowhere.
I also had no idea you were a woman, for what that’s worth.
I understand what you are saying. Hopelessness doesn’t suit me.
All of this with the challenges to Obama is new territory, untried. The best way to resolve things like that is to debate, present a case, make an argument. If they did have a hearing in court on the merits from both sides, it might be resolved. Just letting it hang there and not hearing the debate isn’t helping. Most who are working on that keep adjusting their strategy. This same thing has happened with other issues like slavery, segregation issues. It sometimes takes a long time to work things out. If we have that luxury.
Most that I’ve read who take a similar position to you don’t bother presenting information or backing it up. There isn’t anything there to change my mind.
