Will Obama Eligibility Issue Cause Civil Unrest as Suggested by One Intelligence Analyst?

Evidently, an experienced intelligence analyst recently released a whitepaper that suggests that the issue of whether Obama is eligible to be President due to the constitutional citizenship requirement could result in problems for law enforcement and homeland security. As mentioned previously, the growing list of those requesting proof of Obama's eligibility apparently includes a Former state Supreme Court Chief Justice, a Former Presidential Candidate, a Former Attorney General, a number of legislators, and a number of active-duty U.S. Military personnel.

It has been suggested that the constitutional crisis that might result if/when one of the many cases goes to court could result in civil disobedience. I would argue that we face GREATER RISK if the issue does not go to court to finally prove or disprove Obama's eligibility. Unfortunately, the popular press has been silent on the issue but as more and more people find out about the facts of the case and how Obama's teams of lawyers are fighting from sea to shining sea to keep the cases from being heard, the breadth and depth of concerns of injustice will grow. Add to that the continually growing list of issues disappointing and offending patriotic citizens and resulting in Obama being the most polarizing President in at least 40 years. For example, many are offended (and rightly so) for his recent actions such as apologizing for what he called the arrogance of Americans, his bowing down to the Saudi King, his continuously growing list of broken promises, his praise of Europe and negativity towards America on the world stage, his potentially quadrupling the national debt and rubber stamping thousands of earmarks while completely contradicting his actions by speaking about the importance of fiscal responsibility, his relentless onslaught of socialism, and much more. All of this just adds fuel to the fire and continues to be increasingly divisive for those who stay informed.

However, the majority of those voicing concern over the unanswered question of Obama's eligibility tend to be extremely patriotic and they show strong concern that our constitution is enforced and our laws are respected and followed. Thus, one would deduce that those concerned about Obama's eligibility are the least likely profiles to cause problems for law enforcement or homeland security.

Now let us suppose that the case were to go to court and Obama were proven to be ineligible to hold the office of the President due to being born in Kenya, having been an Indonesian citizen, having been a British citizen, or any of the other POTENTIAL issues that have been raised. There would likely be many who would be overcome with emotion and cause trouble despite clear unconstitutionality. It would also be a challenge to "roll back" all of the actions that were taken by one ineligible to hold the office. In combination with other factors such as a down economy, one can easily see how there might be some resulting issues that we should be prepared for.

So why might I suggest that we face a greater risk if the issue does not go to court to finally prove or disprove Obama's eligibility if those concerned about his eligibility are the least likely to cause problems for law enforcement? OUR CONSTITUTION IS THE FOUNDATION OF THIS GREAT NATION. By refusing to hear the case, our courts are suggesting that the constitution does not matter. If we ignore one clause of the constitution (the natural born citizen clause), why not others? Whatever logic or legal arguments were used to blatently ignore one clause of the constitution could just as easily be used to justify more to be ignored.

Obama should stop fighting to keep the eligibility cases out of court. If there is no problem with his eligibility, he should be glad to simply provide the appropriate documentation.

In fact, he should have been glad to provide it long before the elections when the issue was first raised. Furthermore, our Senators and Congressmen and/or the Federal Election Commission should have speerheaded efforts to verify Obama's eligibility before he was allowed on the ballot. They verified McCain's eligibility so why not Obama's?

The eligibility debate should never have been an eligibility debate and it certainly should not have had to evolve into the plethora of lawsuits and concerned citizens that it has. It's also about time the popular press stopped ignoring the issue and instead pressed for resolution. The sooner the questions surrounding Obama's eligibility are answered, the better off we will be. But if the questions remain unanswered, it will show a sad lack of respect for the fundamental principles upon which this Great Nation was founded.

President Obama, could you please take time away from your busy schedule of praising the EU, bowing to Middle Eastern dignitaries, and speaking about America and its citizens in a derogatory manner, to simply provide the documentation necessary to prove or disprove your eligibility to be President of the United States? If so, I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated by the "arrogant" Americans you've been speaking of recently.

Obama Apologizes for Arrogance of America and Bows to Saudi King? Unbelievable!

I don't know what is more unbelievable:

1) The fact that Obama got up in front of the world and apologized for the arrogance of Americans and that he actually bowed down recently to the Saudi King...

or

2) The continued failure of popular press to present reality. They still choose to paint a rosy picture and cover their beloved Obama with a worshipful attitude while conveniently 'forgetting' to mention the facts.

In the popular media, we'll probably see little or no mentioning of his apologies to the world for the so-called arrogance of America, his bowing down to the Saudi King, his giving speeches about how we need to be frugal, 'fiscally responsible' and only 'pay-as-you-go' while racking up debt larger than all previous American Presidents combined, and the list goes on and on. It's very disappointing to see the state of journalism today.

For more on Obama bowing down to the Saudi King, (see the story at WND for pictures/video, commentary including mentioning that hand shakes are a customary greeting for such an event, and mentioning that no one else was seen bowing down in this manner).

The popular press has also failed to cover the valid questions of whether Obama is even eligible to hold the office of the President. Obama has had high-power lawyers fighting hard to ensure the challenges haven't been heard thus far -- they continue to be dismissed on technicalities and ridiculous rulings of "lack of standing" to bring the suit. More and more are wondering what Obama is trying to hide. As described at WND, lawsuits across the land are challenging Obama's eligibility according to the U.S. Constitution. Among the hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of citizens demanding proof, the list of individuals asking for proof of Obama's eligibility includes:

* A Former state Supreme Court Chief Justice
* A Former Presidential Candidate
* A Former Attorney General
* Many legislators
* Many active-duty U.S. Military personnel

The group of persons demanding proof of Obama's eligibility would undoubtedly be much larger if the popular press would cover the issue and present the true facts of the case, the unanswered questions, the the tremendous effort the Obama camp has put into ensuring that the truth is not heard. Perhaps he is eligible... no one will know for sure until the truth comes out. Every American citizen should be wondering what they're trying to hide.
