Remember the old Trix cereal commercial where the rabbit is always trying to get the Trix. When he finally does get his hands on it, the kids take it away from him. They tell him, “silly rabbit Trix are for kids.” That seems to be the way Obama and the liberals feel about the people and the federal government.

We have a document called the Constitution. It is a document that was well crafted and written.  You can take any section of it and read it through and get a very good grasp of what it means.  If you want to read the whole thing it doesn’t take very long.  To me, it seems quite clear in what the original intent of our Founding Fathers was when they wrote it.

Obama and the liberals though show nothing but contempt for the very document that they swore an oath to defend. They seem hell-bent on subverting it and re-defining what it means.  To them it is a living ever changing document. They believe it needs to be re-interpreted on a regular basis to fit the current situation.

They can’t stand the thought that it set up a government for the people and by the people.  How could that be when in their twisted minds only the elites are capable of governance.  In their minds the people need a keeper after all to give them what they need.  We couldn’t possibly have any idea what is best for ourselves.

Take Article II of the Constitution for example. It clearly states, “no persons except a natural born Citizen, or Citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the office of President.” Pretty simple and straight forward to you and I, right?  Not to liberals and Barack Obama obviously. To them this is again is a thing to be changed or re-interpreted to fit the situation.  After all, they would reason we now live in a global society so the original intent can’t possibly fit the needs of the world. The presidency in their minds after all is bigger than just our nation. Therefore, shouldn’t  it be open to anyone whether they are a natural born citizen or not they would argue.

In emperor Obama’s and his attorneys minds the question is not whether or not he is a natural born Citizen of the United States. The question is whether any Citizen of the United States can prove standing in a U.S. court. What is standing from a legal definition?  It is the question of whether or not a person or persons have a legal right to initiate a lawsuit.

To do so, a person must be sufficiently affected by the matter at hand, and there must be a case or controversy that can be resolved by legal action. There are three requirements for Article III standing: (1) injury in fact, which means an invasion of a legally protected interest that is (a) concrete and particularized, and (b) actual or imminent, not conjectural or hypothetical; (2) a causal relationship between the injury and the challenged conduct, which means that the injury fairly can be traced to the challenged action of the defendant, and has not resulted from the independent action of some third party not before the court; and (3) a likelihood that the injury will be redressed by a favorable decision, which means that the prospect of obtaining relief from the injury as a result of a favorable ruling is not too speculative.

In all of the cases requesting proof of Obama’s qualifications to be President, his attorneys have argued those initiating the suits lack standing.  I would argue they are looking at it from the point outlined in (3) above.  They believe the likelihood of the people obtaining relief from their injury  by a favorable ruling is too speculative.  In their minds we the people have no likelihood of the injuries to the Constitution being redressed by the courts.

Obama doesn’t think we have any right to question his eligibility to be President because he and his elitist cronies know what is best for us. In his mind, government is not for the people and by the people. It is for those “gifted few” who can see beyond our arcane Constitution and rule with a dictatorial mentality.

Silly people, government is for the elite. Not for we who in their minds are the ignorant masses. It couldn’t possibly be a government by the people, for the people in their twisted minds. We the people must demand relief of the injury to our Constitution.  We must join together to show who really holds the power to govern under the Constitution.
