More on Obama's eligibility and birth certificate
Seems this Obama eligibility issue is still stewing. See the following link:

Let me say something though.
At this point, I almost wish it wasn't an issue. Yes I did say that.
Here is why...my first inclination is that it would be a huge mess for our country. Who knows the outcome? Obama's quick string of decisions and actions would be called into question. Can you imagine the stimulus package being voided because he signed it? I'm not saying this is possible or probable...maybe the government would find a easy solution to the mess that would cause, but maybe not. Then think of this: Joe Biden President. (At least I think that's the course of action the government would take, but I don't know constitutional law). Not only that, imagine the fall-out among young people, blacks, and other groups. At very least, the huge disappointment would be felt far and wide. Perhaps something worse would happen.
Yet, there are other things to think about.
Do we have a Constitution or not? Does it mean something or not? Does public opinion or law rule the land? Or, as many of us are feeling, do many of the politicians in Washington do what is best in their own eyes?
I was disappointed yet again today as Obama made known his desire to repeal some of the Bush administration's legislative actions to protect medical professionals who cannot recommend abortion with a clear conscience. His nomination of pro-abortion Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius to head the Department of Health and Human Services further shows his campaign positions were sincere regarding his support of abortion on demand rights. I vehemently disagree with the President on these issues.
Yet, they are not the reason I think his eligibility issue is important. It is because he must comply with federal law just like any other candidate. And it's just a birth certificate. Why in the world is Hawaii's government holding it back from public view? This whole issue is so strange, and could be solved so simply. Perhaps we shall see if there is more to it than talk.
