Decorating The House For Christmas

Starts out nice.

Turns into one heck of a cheesy display!  Lots of cash plunked down for this (good for economy), which can promptly make everyone else’s property values in the neighborhood spiral down, down, down (bad for the economy).

And jack up the volume if you are at work.  And if you are wearing your clown wig.

Supreme Court Conference On Natural Born Citizen Issue

December 3, 2008 · 2 Comments

Leo Donofrio from New Jersey plows heavily and forward in his quest to get someone to address the issue of who is a natural born citizen, as it relates to the constitutional requirement on the President of the United States.  Supreme Court Conference scheduled December 5, 2008. 

Curt Wrotnowski of Connecticut is pursuing along the same lines, as are others. 

U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 1.

No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

Donofrio’s web site Natural Born Citizen has been documenting the extensive and exhaustive process of challenging the New Jersey Secretary of State over her duty to ensure the integrity of the electoral process in that state.  Ultimately, it boils down to clarifying “natural born citizen” in the Constitution.  Barack Obama has admitted to having British citizenship at birth.  Can a person be a natural born citizen of the United States soley, if they are dual citizens at birth with another country?

Donofrio has met with significant stonewalling and inappropriate, possibly illegal actions on the part of the Supreme Court clerk’s office, despite Donofrio’s attempts to methodically follow all the rules and stipulations in following all stipulations for proper submission of his suit to the Court.  Donofrio, a retired attorney, has been extremely meticulous.

Video synopsis.

Of Course Barack Obama is Eligible for President!

The President must be a natural born citizen. Why are ineligible candidates permitted on the state ballots? Who is responsible for determining eligibility? Leo Donofrio wants to know and so should you!

Taking a drink from a glass with a lemon slice on it at a restaurant may seem innocuous, especially if you are ready to quench your thirst.  A microbiologist in New Jersey set out to take her work out into the local restaurants, and see what kind of microbes were flourishing on those juicy and mouth watering lemon slices.
