Birth in the Nation


So, was President Barrack Obama born in the United States? I don’t know. Was he born in Kenya? I don’t know? Was he born in Indonesia? I don’t know? Is he a “pod baby” from the Planet Nimrod? I don’t know. Was he born? Apparently he was. A number of people in our nation are feverishly attempting to prove that Barrack Obama is a natural born United States citizen. Constitutionally he would not be qualified to hold the office of president if he were not born as a citizen of the nation. That’s the rub…the bone of contention. Will the past two years be rewound if it can be proven that the president was not born in the U.S.? For the moment I don’t care.

If were proven beyond a shadow of doubt that Barrack Obama was not born in the United States, then he would illegally serving in the Office of the President. He would also be subject to some penalties including perjury and fraud.  So, if it were to be revealed tomorrow (3/8/2011), that the President was not qualified to serve, what is the remedy? Will he resign? That’s a laughable proposition. If he and his minions have worked so hard to hide the facts of his birth, it is highly unlikely that he would meekly resign and return to Chicago. Besides, his messiah complex has him convinced that only he can save the nation by destroying it and all the inequities that he believes are present. He would battle to the bitter end, issuing Executive order after Executive order in an effort to remake the country. His behavior would, in essence, be a non-military coup. I suspect that he might even consider suspending the election of 2012 or issue an Executive order changing the qualifications for president.

If the President will not resign given proof of his being a non-citizen, then the clear cut remedy is for the House of Representatives to initiate Articles of Impeachment. The process would not be lightning fast as an investigation would be required plus numerous hearings. I make be assuming too much here because I sincerely doubt that the GOP House leadership has the stomach for an impeachment effort. “Too divisive,” too close to the election,” too many difficult issues that require our attention,” will be the plaintive cries to justify House inaction. Oh yes, one more,”the Senate won’t convict, so why bother?”

That last excuse…about the Senate… may have merit. The dynamic dim bulb from Searchlight, Nevada, Harry Reid still holds the reins of control in the Senate.  In addition many of the Republican senators are less courageous than their cohorts in the House. The numbers and the reality of politics indicate that impeachment would be long shot and conviction would be extremely unlikely. The unresolved nature of the issue would divide the country even further than it is now. In addition, the impeachment process however meritorious it might be would energize the Obama defenders.

To me it seems that the best alternative if it were proven that Obama was not legally qualified to be president is to have the various state boards of elections and legislators to prevent him from getting ballot access. In the meantime, the full weight and power of the Congress could be focused on thwarting and repealing any of his orders. In essence, he would be isolated at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. I realize how risky it may be to leave the Marxist-leaning Democrat in office for the next 20 months, but given the painful lack of leadership in the Congress, it may be the least corrosive strategy.

For those who are chasing the holy grail of a missing birth certificate…forge on, work hard, get proof. For the Congress…blockade, repeal, de-fund. For the rest of us…pray, pray, pray.
