Court: No review of Obama’s eligibility to serve – Yahoo! News
The Supreme Court has turned down an emergency appeal from a New Jersey man who says President-elect Barack Obama is ineligible to be president because he was a British subject at birth. The court did not comment on its order Monday rejecting the call by Leo Donofrio of East Brunswick, N.J., to intervene in the presidential election.
….At least one other appeal over Obama’s citizenship remains at the court. Philip J. Berg of Lafayette Hill, Pa., argues that Obama was born in Kenya, not Hawaii as Obama says and Hawaii officials have confirmed.
Does anybody know of any reason why Obama doesn’t simply authorize the Hawaii authorities to release the original birth certificate for public viewing and examination? Wouldn’t it be better to just put this to rest in a completely transparent way, instead of playing the court technicality game?
