"It’s not a matter of doing it over. Much of the information proving Obama is a fraud only surfaced after the election. The timing doesn’t relieve Obama of a positive burden to prove his eligibility."

He has no such obligation. Not a legal one anyway. The timing does matter because the election is over. The electors voted, the Congress certified it and Obama was sworn in. It's done.

And let's not forget that any positive obligation he had prior to all that, he met. He was after all listed on every ballot, and won. So I don't know what obligation is imagined that he failed to meet.

He can be investigated by a grand jury and indicted if there is evidence of a crime. He can be impeached by the House of Representatives and tried in the Senate. He can resign like Nixon did.

He presented an alleged birth document that couldn’t be verified. Posting it acknowledged there was a positive burden of proof on him, but posting one that couldn’t be verified was a matter of going through the motions. Why bother if you can’t stand behind what you present and make the effort to prove it’s genuine?? So again, it’s not a matter of doing it over, but doing it right. Why is it such a nuisance for Obamapologists that anyone would expect full disclosure??

Even if he did fail to prove his eligibility, that's something to take up with the electors (who should not have voted for him if they were not satisfied that the was eligible) and with the members of Congress (who should not have certified the vote count if they were not satisfied that he was eligible).

I thought conservatives were supposed to be against judges sticking their noses into areas that the Constitution assigns to other branches of government.
