Supreme Court Denies Request for Injunctive Relief in One Eligibility Case

December 8th, 2008

On December 8, the U.S. Supreme Court announced that it had denied injunctive relief in Donofrio v Wells, 08A407. It had been filed by a New Jersey voter who believes that Barack Obama does not meet the “natural-born” qualification requirement. No justice made any comments. Thanks to Bill Van Allen for this news.

    The international civil and political rights organization known as AXJ asks why the Supreme Court will not review this matter. Is it up to the Electoral College and the WE THE PEOPLE Foundation? http://www.axjus.com

    What more could we expect? Now, let’s continue to tear down the Constitution until we have nothing left. This is a sad day for The United States. Our founding fathers must be rolling over in their graves about now.

    Slow Poke: Undoubtedly some of the slave-owning founding fathers are rolling over in their graves mat the idea of a black President. So what? Please get off the computer-after all, the founding fathers never imagined the internet either…

    Philip Berg’s case is still alive. Maybe its dead by the time I submit this comment but the god awful journalism we’re subjected to continues.

    Google “Operation Mockingbird”

    What a joke. They can hand the Presidency to Bushie and they can rule that your house can be taken by your town if they want your land but they refuse to look into anything involving Obama. I guess we can all demand that our college and medical records are sealed and we can travel anywhere even if its against the laws for US citizens. Now we can travel to Cuba although its against our laws just like Obama traveled to Pakistan in 1981. Great job of subverting our Constitution !!!

  6. Mr. Reality Says:

    It was NOT against the law for Americans to travel to Pakistan, in 1981, nor is it now. The State Department ADVISED against it, because Pakistan was a dangerous place then, as it can be today. Anyone was free to ignore those warnings.

    As for banning travel to Cuba, how can those who supposedly support Constitutional freedoms tolerate the government dictating where private citizens can travel? Citizens of Canada, germany, france, the UK, etc. can all visit Cuba, yet Americans can’t? Besides, the embargo has been very successful, right? After all Castro is still there, 35 years later.

    You right-wingers are so right. I’d much rather have the laws and Presidents of this country decided by some tax-evading shyster as opposed to the Supreme Court. Because, as we all know, laywers are the most honest and decent people around, they never have any exterior motives, and they truly want what is best for humanity. Yes, I think I’ll rely on these people to tell me what’s what, and let me know exactly how the world works, who I can point the finger at, and most importantly, how I can avoid paying my taxes. Something every good citizen should know. I can alos feel encouraged to talk about the Constitution, a document I have never read or looked at, as opposed to my new President Barack Obama who has a degree in Constitutional law.

    just one Obama related order (today) — the NJ case, I don’t believe the CT case was on the order list and the PA, CA, and NY (and TX??) cases have not been given conference dates yet — perhaps they will be all rolled into this coming Friday (Dec 12th) conference — the last of the year and last before the Dec 15 Electoral College date

    It’s the Congress! If the Congress will not clear up the issue of Mr. Obama’s eligibility, then what are your chances of voting them out in 2010? Not really that good unless you have 435 alternative candidates (Independents or other parties). But what are your chances of that? Not really that good either because the self-entrenched federalist aristocrats have control of ballot access. Do you see a pattern here since the early 20th Century? Suppress the people’s influence by freezing the size of the U.S. House and then monopolizing access to those seats with ballot access restrictions, gerrymandered “safe” seats and campaign finance censorship. Add in corporate control of the mainstream media and you have the people tied down like Gulliver.

  11. ETJB Says:

    Q) Is Barack Obama a citizen of the United States?

    A) Yes.

    Q) Is Barack Obama a natural born citizen of the United States?

    A) Yes.

    I have a lots of complaints about the Supreme Court when it comes to electoral issues. But, all these lawsuits have just been incredibly silly, stupid and downright embarassing to watch unfold.

  12. Deb Says:

    Sould President Bush quickly request an Amendment be written that President Elect of the United States must show proof of his/her natural born citizenship before taking office.

  13. Dee Says:

    Should the President declare a Civil Emergency until truth in be determined. Truth of birth and true interest in the County President Elect represents. His youthful learning was in Muslim schools who believe their God wants the to die for the sake of their religious beliefs. Truth is in the best interest of our entire Country. Even those suffering through hardships and wanted to hear what they were told that would save them from more hardships. Evidence shows he was not born in the United States and the he was adopted in another Country where his United States Citizenship ended.

  14. Dee Says:

    The Electoral College is only in charge of certificating that the votes are correct according to the law. They are not in charge of confirming the natural birth of the President Elect. I believe I read this in the Amendments. Is this why the United States Supreme Court turned down the hearing? If they turned down the hearing because it was not in the interest of the majority of the population in that Obama won the majority votes, that is also wrong because where there is evidence that one lied to this entire Country to gain votes is in the best interest of the majority of the population. I have lost respect for the Justice System in this Country. It is sad and very depressing.
