This is an excellent article about character
Bump to the top.
What was it Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr once said about dreaming of an America where “one was judged not by the color of his skin, but the content of his character”?
Before January 20 of this year, Barack Obama had a negligible public record. He burst onto the national scene what seemed like five minutes before his election to the presidency: a first-term U.S. senator who actually served less than four years in that post — after a short time as a state legislator, some shadowy years as a “community organizer,” and scholastic terms at Occidental, Columbia, and Harvard that remain shrouded in mystery. The primary qualification supporters offered for Obama’s candidacy was his compelling life story, as packaged in 850 pages’ worth of the not one but two autobiographies this seemingly unaccomplished candidate had written by the age of 45.
Yet we now know that this life story is chock full of fiction. Typical and disturbing, to take just one example, is the entirely fabricated account in Dreams from My Father of Obama’s first job after college:...
Its about the honesty of the media as well. They love to scream “Racist republican birthers” yet conveniently omit mentioning Phil Berg, Alan Keyes, and Roger Calero. They also fore go mentioning that the same demands were made of John McCain and he quickly complied.
If the media were honest enough to mention those other facts, they would have little choice but to ask some critical questions of Obama.
Why?
Yes, if it weren’t for the slimy MSM we would demand to know a few facts...
bttt
Indeed. I wonder now whether the whole big hoopla over the use of his middle name in the campaign wasn’t just a demonstration to see if his “machine” could be successful in keeping people from probing into all these other personal aspects of “The One”. They knew then, as we are learning now, that his past life is cloudy at best, and flat-out disqualifying at worst. They may have figured if they could control information until after he was elected,it wouldn’t matter anymore. Done deal.
Good article
Had Obama been born in Iolani Palace it would have no bearing on the constitutional question of his eligibility. Obama is not eligible to hold the office of President of the United States. He is not now the lawful President.
By Obama’s own admission his father was an alien. Obama’s father was a British subject at the time of his son’s birth on August 4, 1961; Obama’s father became a citizen of Kenya upon the occasion of Kenyan independence; and Obama’s father never became a citizen of the United States.
By Obama’s own admission he held dual citizenship until his twenty-first birthday. Obama held Kenyan citizenship through his father and American citizenship through his mother.
By Obama’s own admission he was required by Kenyan law to accept or reject Kenyan citizenship upon reaching the age of majority.
By Obama’s own admission, in obedience to Kenyan law, he elected to renounce his Kenyan citizenship on his twenty-first birthday, August 4, 1982. Having renounced this foreign allegiance Obama became, by default, a citizen of the United States alone.
Obama is not a citizen of the United States by nature. He did not inherit his American citizenship at birth from two citizen parents. The Constitution of the United States expressly establishes this condition as a qualification for the office of President of the United States. “No person except a natural born citizen, or a citizen of the United States at the time of the adoption of this constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President.”
Obama IS NOT a natural born citizen.
Obama is a citizen of the United States by law. He renounced a competing allegiance to a foreign state as required by the laws of that foreign state in order to become, exclusively, a citizen of the United States.
Obama IS a naturalized citizen.
The result of the election of 2008 was defective. The candidate for President who received the highest number of votes was and is constitutionally disqualified. An unlawful tenure of the Presidency, regardless of its duration, can not serve to legitimize it.
Its interesting. A liberal (berg), a black man (Keyes), and a socialist resident alien (Calero) are all “Racist republican birthers”.
Upon a second reading, this really deserves everyone’s attention and BTTT.
Probably the most succinct summary of the birth certificate issue, as well as other details of BHOs life and deceptions.
I’ve always found that a person who lies when it really doesn’t matter will tell some real whoppers when it does!
That’s a good point. It’s such an ordeal that no one wants to go into it. They are smart, evil can be smart......
“How many Americans know, for example, that as a sitting U.S. senator in 2006, Obama interfered in a Kenyan election, publicly ripping the incumbent government (a U.S. ally) for corruption while he was its guest and barnstorming with his preferred candidate: a Marxist now known to have made a secret agreement with Islamists to convert Kenya to sharia law, and whose supporters, upon losing the election, committed murder and mayhem, displacing thousands of Kenyans and plunging their country into utter chaos?”
How many FReepers knew this?
We have not even got into the Acorn stealing the election thing......IF YOU HAVE NOT WAKED UP YET...AMERICANS...WAKE UP NOW!
