Ex-Dem guv: Suppose Obama 'not born in U.S.'
WND ^ | May 30, 2012 | Staff

Posted on 05/30/2012 10:17:14 AM PDT by Smokeyblue

Democrat personality David Paterson, former governor of New York and now a talk-radio host on WOR in New York City, has suggested Barack Obama could be ineligible for the Oval Office and “got away” with it.

And Paterson linked Obama’s actions to treason.

On his show yesterday, he was asserting, along with NBC Chief White House Correspondent Chuck Todd, that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney should have distanced himself more from developer Donald Trump and his doubts about Obama’s eligibility.

“Even if he wasn’t born in the United States at this point,” Paterson said. “It’s kind of like he got away with it.”

Before the comments, Paterson and Todd had agreed that Romney was doing his campaign no benefit by not distancing himself from Trump, who just this week blasted CNN for not reporting on the issue more accurately.

The billionaire businessman told lead political anchor Wolf Blitzer the network would improve its dismal viewer ratings if it would only report the issue of Obama’s eligibility to be president “accurately.”

“Obama does not like the issue of where he was born,” he told Blitzer in the interview. “There’s something that bothers Obama very much. I will tell you: It’s not an issue that he likes talking about, so what he does is use reverse psychology on people like you. … He does not like that issue because it’s hitting very close to home. You know it, and he knows it – but you don’t report it accurately.”

You can only impeach a legal president. Yes, but on the long, long shot that the world uncovers this fraud before 11/6/12, it may be that he has not committed any specific crime, or has violated any specific statute. For example, most states make it illegal to practice medicine without a license. So an medical imposter may do some time. But where is the statute about illegally impersonating a President or illegally representing that you are one etc?

Yes, Pelosi who certified may have committed a fraud, but she can argue that she relied on the State of Hawaii. Hawaii officials have parsed their words most carefully and with legal counsel so they are unlikely to see a jail cell.

It is like a Woody Allen film, a Zelig-type character campaigned, won, took the oaths (there were two remember?), celebrated big time, moved into the White House and proceeded to wreck the existing USA. A few zealots on the right took him to court, but so what? They could never get into the batter's box before they were sent back to the bench for not having 'standing', the insider's uniform for admission to the rigged game.

Perhaps, one should ask our Congress to pass a law which is simple, "Should either a sitting President or a sitting Vice President, be found to have falsified his Article I, Sec. 2 requirements for office, he or she can be tried for treason.

"Ah, but if he "got away with it", then he IS President."

There is no "getting away with being an illegal president.

"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; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."

The requirements for the Presidency start out with two simple words, "No Person". This does not allow for anyone who sneaks by and is not eligible. If you are not eligible, you can NEVER be a legal President. Period.

There you have it...except for the fact the Obama FORGED documents and committed fraud which is punishable by law. And the donkey party that supported this fraud should go down in flames in November.

It’s kind of like he got away with it.

If it was proven that he was indeed not eligible
to hold the office of President, then would he
have to be satisfied with having a kind of like
security detail?

We know that. Looks like they're trying to float the idea that it's too late to do anything about it.

hhhmmmm.

Wouldn’t one have to be a citizen to commit treason?

If the Kenyan was born in Kenya, wouldn’t he be a foregin enemy combatant?

No, he is not President, merely an unindited impostor.

The dem way of thinking is they can lie to us, about us, and in our name - but we must be truthful with them. When we think of them, we need to think: sociopath. If we do that, they make sense.

Here come the trial balloons:

“It’s kind of like he got away with it.” = Awww, you tricked me, ha ha, good one. Okay, that's old news now, let's just move on to something else. How 'bout that Trayvon murder? THERE'S injustice!

The MSM is going to go full court press now stating that even if he isn't eligible it doesn't matter - any old white men who try to impeach him are racists, like the bitter white gun clinger who gunned down poor little five year old Trayvon who was holding a balloon and skittles, his bloody body laying there in the street, the balloon still tied to his chubby little innocent wrist.

If he gets inticted, then he didn't "get away with it". I think they're laying the groundwork for the argument that even if it turns out he's not an NBC, it's too late to do anything about it now.
