And when we take control the first piece of legislation brought up and passed should be that anyone running for president must fully disclose place of birth and all records pertaining to their past such as school records health records, etc. Also the constitution should be followed and only natural born citizens should be allowed to run for president.

If anybody thinks it would be easy to remove a sitting president should give this a look. (Or, for that matter, "undo" an election.)

It's a memo from the Office of Legal Counsel to the Attorney General on justice.gov It references Clinton v. Jones, Nixon v. Fitzgerald, United States v. Nixon etc.

I agree. To overlook the NBC and other Constitutional requirements will have thrashed the Constitution leaving us with God only knows what - which is their plan.

Easier and better to do that through the states, because that’s where names are put on the ballot. And some states (Arizona is out front on this) are working on it already.

Move to issues that we can control.

IMHO America made a huge mistake. One that would probably be impossible to undue without a constitutional crisis, martail law, etc. No one would have ever thought anyone would have the audacity to actually pull off what Obama and Pelosi and the democrat party pulled off. No one could have imagined this could happen. We weren’t ready for such blatant criminal behavior. We should be ready for anything the rats could try to pull off in the future. Our party needs to step up on this one. I can’t believe they are sitting on their hands. They should not be ignoring this. Boener needs to come forward.

That would be too confusing. Some states would adopt the law, some would not. It needs to be a federal law being the president holds a federal office.

It already IS a federal law. It’s the constitution.

We are a federal system. The feds can’t tell the secretaries of state how to organize or print a ballot or how to run an election. That’s one reason why we’ve got such a messed-up federal election system, hanging chads and all that.

The states run their own elections, period. So that’s where candidates can most easily be denied a place on the ballot.

Obummer is the biggest plot afoot against us, Jedidah. He needs taken down and let the chips fall where they may...or maybe the p*ss pots fly where they may, a la Parsifal’s picture.

What makes Freepers so dense? Why do you think there will be an election in 2012?

Obama is so far ahead of the Republican fools that serve as his useful idiots it's funny.....

Infiltrate, Impoverish, and Control...the agenda is succeeding spectacularly and will only accelerate regardless of 2010....

Yawl better catchup..... fast

Kind of like a tumor, which undoubtedly needs to be excized. The question is not IF but WHEN. The operation needs to be conducted to do the least possible harm to the patient.

I contend that shrinking the tumor politically before removing it is the best option, considering that the tumor is in the midst of very vital organs. We don’t want to cripple or kill the patient, just heal her.

Excuse the metaphor if it offends.

“We need to leave this alone and work on crippling ‘O’s agenda”

Wouldn’t it be just as easy to dsimiss him as President, jail him, and leave the DNC is shambles for years to come, maybe even totally destroy what’s left of the DNC?

See post #32...

The "undo the election" thinking is the most politically naive.

Like it or not, Obama was elected president. To change that requires a very drawn out political/legal impeachment process.

That’s just your opinion. Removing him due to him not being a US Citizen has never been an issue and no one knows what the requirements would be. I imagine he’d be run out on a rail.
