You're just pissed off because you can't be the prez.
Seriously, we should be concerned about other allegiances our president has while he's in the office of the most powerful man in the world. Now, it's no guarantee that a natural born citizen wouldn't be a turncoat, but the prevailing thought at the time was that a natural citizen might be more likely to be loyal. That 's what the founding fathers were talking about.
I don't have a problem with those lawsuits; it's up to the Supremes to decide upon the rule of law when it comes before them. I'm glad we can still make challenges like this under the law. Isn't that what this country and the Constitution is all about? (well, it used to be, anyway). Don't you think it 's important to adhere to the Constitution?
Personally, I still don't see why the man can't just go to court, produce the document, and put it to bed.
Maybe he doesn't really have it?
