CPT Connie Rhodes MD,
Plaintiff,
v.
Dr ROBERT GATES, UNITED
STATES SECRETARY OF DEFENSE,
BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA, de facto
PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES,
Defendants.
APPLICATION FOR TEMPORARY RESTRAINING ORDER
Plaintiff Captain Dr. Connie Rhodes has received what appear to be facially valid orders mobilizing her to active duty with the United States Army in Iraq on September 5th, 2009 (Exhibit A). Captain Rhodes is both a US army officer and a medical doctor, a flight surgeon. On May 15th of this year 501 brigade out of Fort Campbell, KY, currently stationed in Iraq, has requested a support of medical personal in Iraq. Two days ago, August the 23rd, an order was given through the chain of command via e-mail for Captain Rhodes to arrive in San Antonio TX, Fort Sam Houston for Tactical Combat Medical Care Course (TCMC) to be held from August 30th till September 4t and next day, on September the 5th to arrive in Fort Benning in Columbus GA for immediate deployment to Iraq for a period of one year and twelve days from September 5th, 2009 until September 17th 2010. Captain Dr. Connie Rhodes wants to serve her country and fulfill her tour of duty, however as a US army officer and a medical doctor she has severe reservations regarding legitimacy of Barack Obama as the Commander in Chief and repercussions of her service under his orders, particularly in light of mounting evidence of him having allegiance to other Nations and citizenship of Kenya, Indonesia and Great Britain.

Except the term is natural BORN citizen and not natural citizen. Doesn’t mean he could have changed citizenships throughout his life but that he was BORN with dual citizenship.
The problem isn't what was said.
The problem is that under Hawaii law the original birth certificate showing foreign birth can be on file, and Hawaii can still legally issue a birth certification showing birth on the islands.
The birth certification with that flat-out lie on it is perfectly legitimate under Hawaii law.
I have personal experience with the legal fictions allowed on birth certificates.
The judge has already denied the TRO. The order is available on PACER, which I checked after seeing it reported on Twitter this morning.
In my experience, the presiding judge can make a difference, but the military court system is given to the wild departures from convention that is seen in the civilian world. Which is why I said in an earlier post, I don't think any district judge is going to grant a TRO - but ANYTHING is possible. I would say ANYTHING isn't possible in a military courtroom - remember, the presiding officer is under the same constraint as the other jurists and defendant - they President is the Command-in-Chief, and they serve at his pleasure. That's a powerful dynamic that's not going to lend itself to evidentiary fishing trips for presidential birth records.
I tend to think this won’t happen, but I find it fascinating Obama won’t just sign a release on the Long form BC and clear this up. Sooner or later it would seem he’ll hit a judge who is a partisan, and decides to bust his balls.
Occam's razor tells me that the most likely reason he doesn't want his LF certificate in public view because there's something on it that would cause him some grief or displeasure. What that is, I have no idea. Personally, I was and continue to be in the camp that his eligibility to be president is still questionable, even if he was born in HI. But, SCOUTS disagrees with me, and has signaled that they have no appetite to entertain such challenges - disappointing.
Yes to both counts. As I said earlier, if he can provide both items, then he has set a very high hurdle for the plaintiff to walk over - assuming that the case is ever heard on the merits.
What’s a PACER? Link please.
On what terms was it denied?
She's certainly no Constitutional scholar.
See the sources the Founding Fathers used, for example, Vattel quoted long standing law of nations and asserted that natural born citizenship required BOTH being born in a country, AND being born of TWO citizens of that country.
The Founding Fathers wanted to insure that to hold that one singular office, the presidency of these United States, one had to be free of any hint of divided loyalties, allegiance, or affinity.
They specifically didn't want some Brit taking over the place.
Since Obama was born of a British Subject (I don't think anyone argues that point) he is, by birth, a British Subject, (and arguably a Kenyan as well!).
IF he was born in Honolulu, he's also an American citizen, but merely being born on US soil doesn't qualify one as a Natural Born Citizen.
If he was born elsewhere, under the laws in effect at the time, he wasn't even an American citizen at birth.
Let me be clear, I'm not a document examiner and I have no idea if what is purported on the internet to be Obama's COLB is legitimate, nor do I care - it's not germane in any way to the case.
What is germane is the multiple public statements from HI officials. I assume that they would sign affidavits repeating their public proclamations. I think that's a perfectly logical presumption. And, if they would offer such sworn testimony, it means that their is a legitimate COLB in Barack Obama's possession - or he could ask for another one from HI - irrespective of any fraudulent garbage that's already made it's way to the internet.
For me, it's the public proclamations that is so compelling - nothing more.
If you think a reasoned legal opinion is "disruption", I'm not sure what it says about your ability to evaluate facts or listen to reason. Just saying.
No idea.

The order is too long to post (three pages), but here’s the “concluding” paragraph:
If the "trash" is evidence, destroying evidence could be a crime in and of itself.
There are circumstances where "Pick up that trash." is an unlawful order.
In this case, it means "evidence on it's face". In other words, in a trial preceding, the evidentiary burden would switch to the opposing party after prima fascia evidence was admitted and accepted into the trial record. That becomes an enormous burden for the opposition to overcome.
Thanks for the encouragement. I'm afraid you're in the minority.
I agree. If there is a God in Heaven, I do not believe he will allow this fraud to remain in Office.

Good question. To begin with, this "lack of standing" grounds for dismissal, is one of - if not THE - most abused procedural grounds that courts at all levels use. It needs to be addressed, not just for this case, but for all cases.
It really became en vogue during the 1960's when there were countless challenges to the constitutionality of the Vietnam war - all but one (I think) was dismissed for "lack of standing".
Standing usually means that a party has material interest in the case and the court can provide some sort of remedy or relief for the party. I know what you're going to say - Don't we all have an interest here, and can't the court provide a relief or remedy just by ordering Obama to show his long form BC? I would think so, but I'm not a federal judge. So, my opinion is just like yours in this matter - worthless.
Your entire argument is that his citizenship was indeed controlled by the laws of Kenya and Great Britain.
Therefore, although he is a US citizen by statute he is not a Natural Born Citizen. NBC's need no law to declare them citizens.
” With that statement, and a Certification of Live Birth, Barack Obama will win any and all legal challenges, “
What expertise does Dr Fukino have to declare anyone a natural born citizen ?
She needed a year of tutoring after graduating from college to get into the local medical school,
she’s not board certified
and her niche area of practice has focused on the medical needs of native Hawaiians,
like diet, weight control, blood pressure management.
She also hopes to incorporate Huna,
the ancient Hawaiian healing techniques of chanting, herbs ,spirituality and plants into her medical practice.
I can find nothing in her published educational background to indicate she has ever taken a course on the Constitution
or authenticating documents .
Her two statements have been ambiguous , poorly worded and beyond her professional bailiwick.
And they are the linchpins of those who say she has vindicated Obama.
I imagine a half way decent plaintiff’s attorney could easily impeach her.
