OBAMA AND THE US SUPREME COURT: IS THE MOMENT OF TRUTH AT HAND?

*******************
Next Friday the Supreme Court of the United States is set to consider whether or not Barack Hussein Obama is eligible to assume the office of the Presidency of the United States next January.

The question before the court is whether or not Obama is a NATURAL BORN citizen of the United States as required by the U. S. Constitution. There is evidence that he was born in Kenya, which at the time was a British Colony. There is also evidence that he had Indonesian citizenship when he attended for four years a school in that country. There is also evidence that he later traveled in Pakistan at a time when Pakistan did not allow U. S. citizens to enter that country, therefore raising the question as to whose country’s passport he used to enter Pakistan.

People who support Obama with a passion that borders on obamamania
refer to those who support a resolution of the question by the United States Supreme Court as “crackpots”, “idiots” and worse. They fail to see that it is in the best interests of EVERYONE that the SCOTUS resolve the question.

Why? Because if Obama were to assume the Presidency with the question of his eligibility still unresolved, all his acts, all his Presidential Executive Orders, all his appointments of governmental officials would be subject to challenge in the courts.

Given the hostility, or at least suspicion, with which half of the American people view Obama, it is not unreasonable to expect an unending series of lawsuits challenging his administration, leading to political and economic instability.

America’s best hope is that the SCOTUS will resolve the question once and for all; whichever way the Court decides the question, it will bring closure. Failure of the Court to resolve the question will lead to chaos.
