One of the greatest lessons that I learned from the 2008 presidential elections was that Democrats would rather elect a constitutionally ineligible foreign-born enemy of this country and its constitution rather than elect a Republican. Even if that Republican was a “Republican in name only” and even if that Republican self ascribes himself as a Maverick, which is code for “I screw Republicans over all the time just like you Democrats.” from Creating Orwellian World
It started when the Senate decided to make an exception for John McCain, a Vietnam war hero who spent 5 1/2 years as a POW in the Hanoi Hilton enduring the most despicable forms of torture. McCain’s parents were both born US citizens, yet he was not constitutionally eligible to run for the office of POTUS. Circumstances he could not control, having been born outside of the United States in an unincorporated territory, disqualified his birth as a Natural Born Citizen. Citizenship occurs at birth, and the Constitution’s very specific requirement for this office are clear. How unfair! Had his birth taken place at home there wouldn’t be a question of his eligibility; but it didn’t. His ineligibility had to do with where he was born, outside the United States in a hospital in the Panama Canal Zone. It was a quirk; the Hand of Fate possibly. It was John McCain’s place of birth that did him in as it were, even though unlike Obama both of his parents were born citizens of this country. I can appreciate his colleagues in and out of the Congress seeking a way to by-pass or overlook this VERY SPECIFIC requirement for President. The solution was clear. Look the other way and bypass the Constitution, again! The bill was introduced by Senator Claire McCaskill (D-MO) and (ironically) co-sponsored by Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) and Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY)! Senate Resolution 511 was/is not a law. It is feel good legislation that is opinion without the effect of law! That didn’t stop any of these actors. Presto Chango, McCain’s eligibility problems were solved… forget the unintended consequences! Screw the Hand of Fate and Screw the Constitution, never mind that if the NBC Clause was really so pernicious that Congress could pass a Constitutional amendment to rectify the situation LEGALLY! Congress didn’t want to be bothered to follow that dusty ole document that they were sworn to uphold. Apparently we have become a Nation of Laws, but only when it suits our legislators! (the choir sang Amen and so did the legal community) Let me state the obvious.If John McCain really was a Natural Born Citizen there was no need to pass SR511; he wasn’t! McCain was ineligible to run for POTUS and he knew it, his lawyers, Theodore Olson and Laurence Tribe knew it, and so did the many Senators that voted on SR511. The Senate passed Senate Resolution 511 declaring that John McCain was a Natural Born Citizen thus making him eligible to run for the office of POTUS. McCain’s ineligibility problem was solved regardless of what it meant for the future. So how did we get from SR 511 to a Constitutional fraud sitting in the White House? Well, it should be obvious. The Senate made an exception for McCain. The problem is when one exception is made how is it possible to not grant another exception? The Senate HAD TO look the other way and remain silent. These fools were compromised! Barack Obama’s no fool.When he co-sponsored SR511 and he knew exactly what he was doing. He boxed in the Senate and he boxed in McCain. This is where the MSM became an active participant in the fraud. Can you say JournoLists? Any mention of McCain’s citizenship problems were immediately deflected. Bring up McCain’s problems and Obama’s problems are even more evident! On more than one occasion I heard Chris Matthews silence a guest when he attempted to mention this topic. No, no, no! NO discussions of what it means to be a Natural Born Citizen on his show! During the ’08 campaign the McCain team went around issuing statements that they had “investigated” the Obama Citizenshiprumors and found them to be without merit! To hear the McCain Campaign team talk, one would have thought they were reading from the same talking points as the MSM.
McCain Campaign Investigated, Dismissed Obama Citizenship Rumors While they ruled out any chance of the Birther lawsuits holding up in court, lawyers for the McCain campaign did check into the rumors about Obama’s birth and the assertions made by Berg and others. “To the extent that we could, we looked into the substantive side of these allegations,” said Potter. We never saw any evidence that then-Senator Obama had been born outside of the United States. We saw rumors, but nothing that could be sourced to evidence. There were no statements and no documents that suggested he was born somewhere else. On the other side, there was proof that he was born in Hawaii. There was a certificate issued by the state’s Department of Health, and the responsible official in the state saying that he had personally seen the original certificate. There was a birth announcement in the Honolulu Advertiser, which would be very difficult to invent or plant 47 years in advance.
Look at the statement above. There is only one word for it… shameful! What’s worse is that McCain has called his opponent in the November ’10 election, J.D. Hayworth, a Birther. This was arrogance and hypocrisy on the grandest scale. The tag line to McCain’s political ad against J.D. Hayworth … CHARACTER MATTERS! ARGH!
OBAMA’S CONSTITUTIONAL DEFIANCE
Obama had bigger problems than McCain. He was born a British citizen AND he admitted this on his website when he was running for POTUS. Obama, Citizen of World, George Soros puppet, had found a way to defy the flawed document and sit in the office of real Presidents and Patriots. Now he had the upper hand; the exception had already been made and there was no one to step in and right the wrong. This was a very clever way for Obama and all those in the legal community, Congress, and the MSM who have always hated the Natural Born Citizen clause to establish precedent! There was cowardice everywhere. No one was going to take down a man who could bring hundreds of thousands of adoring fans in here and abroad to listen to him read from his teleprompter. No one was going to take down “America’s first black President”. Bill and Hillary tried bringing this to our attention, but Team Obama and the MSM were decimating them at every turn, calling them racists! Many of the Clinton’s closest advisers became traitors and stabbed Hillary in the back. No, no one was going to take Hillary or Bill serious if they used a full frontal assault. The Journolists in the MSM would protect him no matter what. Obama knew that as we watched in horror as this fake was sworn into office. No, not even the Supreme Court could or would stop him now! There were cowards and compromised bastards everywhere! The most important aspect of Obama’s faux presidency is that if it is allowed to remain, that is if Obama is not removed from office before the 2012 election, the precedent set by having a British born subject become POTUS will change this country forever. The law breakers (Pelosi, Dean, the DNC, and their supporting actor/players) will have accomplished a bloodless coup d’etat. Which brings me to ask Senator McCain the following questions. Senator McCain:
- How much more damage does Team Obama have to do to this country before you “man up” and do the right thing?
- How do you sleep at night knowing that LT. Col. Lakin may go to prison defending the Constitution while you remain silent. He has put his career on the line for asking Obama to prove he is eligible to hold office and yet you remain silent!
- Was your run for the presidency really worth the damage inflicted on this country with faux President Obama?
- Remember when words like integrity and honor were used to describe John McCain?
"Oh, and what about that Social Security number reserved for Connecticut applicants that you are using???"
SSNs are prefixed according to the state where the app. is filed. One could have been born in a hospital in one state while his/her mother was visiting there, and been issued a SSN prefixed for that state. Has nothing to do with the legal residence of the mother or father. You can live in one state and go to a hospital in another state, or be born "at-home."

What are you talking about?
A NATURAL BORN citizen.
McCain was born to TWO US citizens. It doesn't matter that he was born to more than ONE US citizen or that he was born in, or on, a US Territory. He could have been born in Antarctica, or on the Moon, and as long as he had at least ONE US citizen parent, he is a citizen.
A citizen is not a natural born citizen. Neither McCain or Obama were eligible to run for POTUS.
