A little Biblical reference from Romans 8:28 "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."<br />God is doing something, most of us don't know what, but he's doing something to help us. Perhaps to stand for what we believe in, and to stand for our country. Even when we don't think that God is doing something great, have a little faith. God never fails.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05285856458532522246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-52370042259046427862010-01-09T20:52:37.720-05:002010-01-09T20:52:37.720-05:00It is not comlicated.

The key word in the sentence is "real." That word says a lot. It means that the election has to be legitimate in all respects. <br /><br />Also, an election is a tool available to the People to change their government. Why forfeit that opportunity if it is there for the taking?<br /><br />Of course, I am not suggesting that we abandon our quest to remove Obama legally through the joint effort of the U.S. Supreme Court and Congress.Mario Apuzzo, Esq. https://www.blogger.com/profile/12200858207095622181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-54546316418954566732009-11-19T15:40:00.575-05:002009-11-19T15:40:00.575-05:00Sallyven,
The issue of legal representation for ...Sallyven, <br /><br />The issue of legal representation for Obama is a complex one. It is complex because in the Kerchner action I sued him in both his personal and official capacity. His personal capacity is involved because he had to prove he was an Article II "natural born Citizen" before becoming a public official by executive power vesting in him under Article II, Section 1, clause 1. The time for him to be constitutionally compelled to make that showing would have been after he was elected by the Electoral College and before he was confirmed by Congress under the 20th Amendment. He was still a private person at that time. <br /><br />I also sued Obama in his official capacity because even though he is now the putative sitting President, he refuses to honor his oath under Article II, Section 1, clause 6 to “preserve, protect, and defend” the Constitution and his obligation under Article VI, clause 3 to be bound by oath or affirmation to “support” the Constitution, by refusing to adequately prove that he is an Article II "natural born citizen" and by insisting to continue to occupy the Office of President even though he is not eligible for that office because he is not an Article II “natural born Citizen.” <br /> <br />Surely the Justice Department can represent a President in his official capacity. I doubt they can represent him concerning actions that he took or did not take in his private capacity as an ordinary citizen before becoming President. The problem is how do we separate the two actions which are intertwined with each other so that we may know when the Justice Department is acting to defend his official capacity versus his private capacity. Maybe someone reading this comment can offer some insight into this problem.Mario Apuzzo, Esq. https://www.blogger.com/profile/12200858207095622181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-2727927160152298292009-11-19T14:52:24.954-05:002009-11-19T14:52:24.954-05:00Mario:

The fact that a large majority of the population pays no taxes at all. Add to that the growing implicit tax rate (i.e. the point where it makes no sense to work versus the free government benefits lost), and talk of amnesty for illegal aliens, and you have the potential for an even larger majority to vote themselves even more benefits. The government workforce continues to grow. Add to this the lack of civics and history education coupled with the predominantly liberal bias among academia. The popularity of the concept of "relative truth". The "hip" admiration for the likes of Chi, Castro, Mao, Communism...<br /><br />We have a lot of work ahead of us.<br /><br />It is comforting to know that patriotic citizens like Mr. Apuzzo and Mr. Kerchner are leading the charge on the eligibility issue, which I feel, as I have stated here before, is the most important issue of our time, as it is the most symbolic of the predicament we now face as a nation.Sallyvenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09907616488562792531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-26957273772716041712009-11-18T22:29:16.522-05:002009-11-18T22:29:16.522-05:00Congress and Obama need to hear this same admoniti...Congress and Obama need to hear this same admonition : Oliver Cromwell’s Speech on the Dissolution of the Long Parliament<br />Given to the House of Commons<br /><br />20 April 1653<br /><br />"It is high time for me to put an end to your sitting in this place, which you have dishonored by your contempt of all virtue, and defiled by your practice of every vice; ye are a factious crew, and enemies to all good government; ye are a pack of mercenary wretches, and would like Esau sell your country for a mess of pottage, and like Judas betray your God for a few pieces of money.<br /><br />Is there a single virtue now remaining amongst you?<br /><br />Is there one vice you do not possess?<br /><br />Ye have no more religion than my horse; gold is your God; which of you have not barter’d your conscience for bribes?<br /><br />Is there a man amongst you that has the least care for the good of the Commonwealth?<br /><br />Ye sordid prostitutes have you not defil’d this sacred place, and turn’d the Lord’s temple into a den of thieves, by your immoral principles and wicked practices?<br /><br />Ye are grown intolerably odious to the whole nation; you were deputed here by the people to get grievances redress’d, are yourselves gone!<br /><br />So!

There are supposed to be various checks and balance in our system apart from the separation of powers between the branches of government. The Framers placed, among other protections, these mechanisms in our Constitution so that the People would have protection from a government corrupted by power. In our nation, the media has also always played a critical role in protecting the People from corrupt political power and in keeping them informed so that they can make intelligent decisions regarding their Constitutional Republic. <br /><br />It does appear as though these institutions have broken down today. If the government is not willing to keep the nation together in a way that the People want it to be kept together, then it is up to the People to do so. The People must exercise their right to vote and change their government as much as possible each chance they get. The nation can be saved as long as the People have a real opportunity to change their government through the power of the vote.Mario Apuzzo, Esq. https://www.blogger.com/profile/12200858207095622181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-90843351112051505462009-11-18T17:50:13.104-05:002009-11-18T17:50:13.104-05:00Perhaps you would care to comment on this:

I figured if any activities or events strayed very far from the constitution, there were plenty of checks and balances in the system. In addition to specific oaths and duties of various officials, there were a lot of people in congress and at least a few would speak up. Then there were the courts, academia, and public opinion in concert with the MSM.<br /><br />Well I guess we have all learned that this entire arrangement does not work. In addition to the immediate and palpable current crisis (crises?), we have a much bigger looming problem. Going forward, what is the standard and workable method to seek redress? Who are the enforcers of the constitution? A law - even the broad 'law of the land' - is no law, without teeth. We may as well be British and have the government just make it up as it goes along!Carlylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07371651852897376905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-67727527212243075252009-11-17T14:29:42.127-05:002009-11-17T14:29:42.127-05:00Erica:

As a result I created a grassroots coalition of parent activists to fight back. I won't waste space here repeating all the ups and downs in that battle, but suffice to say I knew we were on the road to socialism (and was pilloried for saying so), I knew the U.S. Dept. of Education was taking the lead even though it isn't supposed to (and still is), and I realized that ultimately their methodologies would create a dumbed down population which could be easily manipulated. The behemoth won. Sadly, I have been vindicated.<br /><br />If we ever win the battle over Obama's eligibility, we need to get into the trenches again to bring education back to basics and common sense. <br /><br />A fight for another day.Ericahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519630584677986406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-26577890563274245302009-11-17T00:59:17.528-05:002009-11-17T00:59:17.528-05:00The sad and disgusting part about this is that eve...The sad and disgusting part about this is that every single member of Congress has swallowed his claims of citizenship hook, line, and sinker.<br />This I would submit, would make Congress guilty as co-conspirators.<br />Also, all of Congress has failed their oath to uphold the Constitution. AS for the electorate, the fact that boy wonder was elected by the people to be our President tells me that the voting population is a stupid, ignorant lot. If it truly is stupidity, then I submit there should be a minimum IQ level be met before a person is given their right to vote. It seems to me the population it getting increasingly stupid, as the flood of illegals and high rate of High School dropouts is dumbing down the population. This "dumbing down" could be a planned effect by the Democrats to gain followers, hence votes. It is said that within 50 years, the Hispanics will be in the majority, and I would guess most of these would be poorly educated people looking for Pelosi's handouts. This is why I feel the sooner Obama is impeached, and tried for his crimes, and all co-conspirators rounded up and hung, the the more likely it is that we can return our great nation to its Constitutional roots and prevent a revolution.JAQUEBAUERhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17379882377455382796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-38763112942043361442009-11-16T20:20:09.043-05:002009-11-16T20:20:09.043-05:00I've just posted a new article on my blog rele...I've just posted a new article on my blog relevant to NBC.<br /><br />Capitalization, The Constitution, And The Meaning Of Natural Born Citizenship<br />http://jeffersonsrebels.blogspot.com/2009/11/capitalization-constitution-and-meaning.htmlEricahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519630584677986406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-57963208634901012312009-11-16T13:45:26.393-05:002009-11-16T13:45:26.393-05:00Thank you Charles and Mario...Thank you Charles and Mario...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466841558189356289.post-80534078497471484092009-11-16T12:19:13.249-05:002009-11-16T12:19:13.249-05:00Mr. Kerchener and Mr Apuzo,
