Kansas Weighs Taking Obama Off [2012 Presidential] Ballot
Fox News ^ | 22 minutes ago

Posted on 09/14/2012 11:32:36 AM PDT by drewh

The paths of President Barack Obama and Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach are crossing once again.

But this time, it is not over immigration.

It is over the enduring assertion that Obama is not eligible to be president because they doubt he was born in Hawaii.

Kobach, who is an informal adviser to the Romney campaign on immigration policy, heads the all-Republican Kansas State Objections Board, which is considering removing Obama from the state's November ballot.

The issue -- which Kobach made a part of his election campaign in 2010 -- has been reignited by a claim from a Manhattan, Kan., resident that Obama is not eligible to be president because his father was from Kenya. The resident, Joe Montgomery, also questions whether Obama has a valid birth certificate.

"We have to take our responsibilities seriously," Kobach said. "Taking it seriously means that we make a decision with all of the evidence that can be obtained before we decide it."

Kobach, the architect of some of the most hard-line state-level immigration policies in the United States, including those of Arizona and Alabama, has been critical of Obama for what he says is the current administration's failure to address illegal immigration. Kobach also was the force behind a strict immigration component in the Republican party platform that was recently adopted at the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla.

The board, which would have the final say on the ballot absent a court challenge, plans to meet again Monday and may rule then.

I agree with you. If Kansas is successful the national media will have a field day making Obama into a sympathetic victim of the horrible Racist republicans. If they can make Romney look bad for commenting on Obama's failures, imagine what they can do with this. Obama will end up being the persecuted savior of democracy and civil rights.

On what grounds can a federal court reverse a Kansas ballot eligibility ruling?

Huh...as if those terrorists in black robes (particularly the Rat appointees) need "grounds" to do anything.

Folks, wherever these articles pop up we need to contact the reporters and send them the link to Larry Klayman’s letter to Bob Bauer - a copy of which was sent to every state Attorney General, every state Secretary of State, every state democratic party chair, every member of the Commission on Presidential Debates, and every member of the DNC Executive Committee as well as Nancy Pelosi. Here’s that link: http://butterdezillion.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/complete-klayman-letter-to-bauer.pdf

HI state registrar Alvin Onaka confirmed to AZ SOS Ken Bennett that the White House BC image is NOT “a true and accurate representation of the original record on file” and that Obama’s HI BC is not legally valid. All the above people were informed of that by letters sent via certified mail from Attorney Larry Klayman. Bob Bauer received that letter by courier at 2:27pm EDT on Aug 31 - 4 days before the Convention began. He was warned that any Certification of Nomination swearing that Obama is eligible to be President would be perjurious, since HI has now confirmed that there are no legally-established birht facts for Obama.

At this point any SOS who allows Obama on the ballot based on what is known to be a perjurious Certification of Nomination is him/herself engaging in election fraud.

The whole story needs to be told, and we’re going to have to be the ones to get the real story out, with the help of Klayman.

At this point we need to inform everyone in the media of Klayman’s letter, which will remove any excuse they have for reporting false claims about Obama having released his real BC or Hawaii verifying any birth facts or the existence of a LEGALLY-VALID BC for Obama. None of those things has actually happened, and any reporter who is given Klayman’s letter and still reports those untruths is in violation of the Federal General False Statement Act.

What we need is proof that they were notified of Klayman’s letter. If, after that time, they report lies we have a reason to say that we will report them to law enforcement for violation of the Federal General False Statement Act if they fail to correct those inaccuracies.

Obeying the rule of law is never a bad move. Not in my world, anyway.

Is this Kansas SOS the real deal or a blowhard like the Georgia guy was?

Kris Kobach is the real deal.

Won’t happen, but this will drive the KS RATS crazy, especially the newspaper editors and the poly-sci profs they print editorials from. They hate Kobach (and all republicans) with a loud, hysterical, passion.

As you are assuredly correct...this will go unnoticed by the drive-by media.

If Kobach is tied to Romney’s campaign I am skeptical of his hearing the issue out.

I disagree, his life narrative has to be the most Alinsky-ized issue this country has ever faced. It has been done with a cooperating corrupt democrat media. Just look how they coordinated to try to trip up Romney at a press conference. The democrat media is NOT to be trusted with anything. They are more worried what is best for their party than what is good for the country so that makes them beyond corrupt.

That being said, what Sheriff Joe’s investigation uncovered was Hawaii was handing out authentic birth certificates to foreign citizens like candy back in the day and had over 1,000 examples. Because of that corruption,what this establishes is you CANNOT rely on Hawaiian birth certificates alone to establish citizenship,from the State of Hawaii, without other documentation to back it up. He may or may not have been born here but what’s been discovered is you can’t rely on just the Hawaiian birth certificates to establish citizenship. The corrupt media has conveniently ignored this and the Obama administration has dropped all criminal charges against Sheriff Joe so his investigation will go away. If Obama was not eligible to run in 2008, he definitely not eligible to run now.

It’s time to start a new conspiracy theory. What if the Bomb threat in Kansas city is related to the possible decision by Kansas to remove Obama from the ballot? Hmmm? ;-)

>>>Obeying the rule of law is never a bad move. Not in my world, anyway.

It's too late to obey the rule of law. That should have happened 4 years ago.

And of course...obeying the rule of law is never a bad idea...but this would backfire...and not have ANY impact other than negative on the outcome of the election. It would allow for the media to spend more time creating a sympathetic figure...and create a diversion. This is a certainty....not a guess...but a sure bet.

KNOW YOUR ENEMY. Too many of you chose to fight and fail to realize you are playing into their hands. Ask yourself...if you were dealing with a president like this...and you have an ignorant public by and large...what would you want them focused on? A failed foreign policy and an economic disaster...or the birther issue? If I'm a dim...I want all of you talking about the birther issue...

No...they don't need an excuse...but they will devote their time away from the real issues and onto this issue...which even if pursued will not sway 1% of the people. Every KNOWS it...and has made up their mind whether or not it bothers them. The sheeple NEED to be reminded of his job performance. All this does is create sympathy for swing voters. FACT.

Glad some of you aren't in charge of the national campaign...we'd lose by 20. Romney/Rove are already making it difficult enough.

Yep...and all of that...while factual...did NOTHING to move the polls. NOTHING. It did not take one % of the undecideds from the UNDEC to the Romney column. FACT. If that didn’t do it...this won’t either.

I would rather win the election...and let history be his judge. This is a loser issue and anyone who can’t see that doesn’t know how to win. If it was going to be a game-changer...Hillary’s attack in ‘08 would have done it. IT DIDN’T WORK.

If the American public would vote somebody in out of sympathy because they were caught in perjury, election fraud, and (arguably) treason, then this country is beyond saving and a fast death may be more merciful than anything.

And if that’s how stupid America is, the drug cartels and Hezbollah will burn this country to the ground for the very same reason (we don’t dare catch and stop the crooks because everybody will feel sorry for them...) regardless of who gets elected this time around. At some point a society that is too stupid to exist simply ceases to exist. If that’s where we’re at, all we have to do is continue on the same course and we’ll get there soon enough.

You act like we can’t multi-task on the issues and just need to focus on one issue or two. If a great injustice happened in 2008, the sooner it’s exposed, the better. The best thing is it exposes the corrupt media for just how corrupt they are. I WILL NOT take the focus off this injustice. No amount of your swaying will accomplish this. IT NEEDS TO BE EXPOSED! PERIOD!
