Law Professor Dreisdach "Admits" Obama Ineligible
(taken from: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2008/12/03/clintons-confirmation-spark-constitutional-battle/. Okay, this is a reach, but when read in context it seems this American University law professor admits that the technical aspects of the U.S. Constitution are irrelevant and, per partisan interpretation, can legally and functionally be circumvented.)
Daniel Dreisdach, a professor of law at American University, said it would be difficult for anyone to use the provision to challenge Clinton's confirmation.
"In this respect, it's a bit analogous to this question of whether Barack Obama is a natural born citizen," he said, referring to a lawsuit, dismissed last month, seeking to obtain a copy of Obama's Hawaii birth certificate.
"Then it becomes who has legal standing to challenge his credentials as president or Hillary Clinton's assumption of the office," he said.
Dreisdach said as long as Democrats control the Senate, the Obama transition team won't worry about this provision in the Constitution.
"The Obama team is well aware of it and they have dismissed it," Dreisdach said. "I find it hard to believe that a Democratic majority will take a different view."
Okay, I won't be talking about Obama much for a bit until this gets resolved. There's something really weird and amiss out there and it may culminate on or directly before the inauguration. Blago, birth certificates, Hillary Clinton obviously constitutionally ineligible, www.change.gov an illegal use of .gov domain....this whole thing is starting to sound a little fake. Merry Christmas. Oh, and to the bastard(s) that ripped off my neighbor, Rachel's dad, of their xmas presents I hope you rot in hell.
