Obama declared ineligible for the Georgia ballot

gwb, You stand to take greater advantage of American "socialism" long before many of us will get to. Prescription meds are going to come in real handy even for seniors who have led the healthiest of lifestyles. Social security payments, check. But on the other hand, I suppose if you'd just been taxed less all those working years, then you'd have invested the money yourself, and be set up far better for retirement than Uncle Sam could ever have provided for. That could be true, I can't deny that. But it could equally be false if you'd made a bad bet. I think it was just a couple years ago I heard everyone flipping out because their 401k gambles had gone up in smoke. But not you - you'd have ridden the trends perfectly.

actually no i have not ridden the trends perfectly. my 401k became a 201k in 2002, then a 501k in 2007, back to a 201k in 2009, and is now a 401k again.
i'd gladly give up my social security benefit or have it reduced to preserve the economic freedom this country is all about for my 24yr old son and my 26yr old daughter. that is my biggest concern, like most parents, the future my children have.
i happen to believe that freedom to prosper and fail is better than servitude.

That is pretty racist. I don't get why everyone hates obama for being black so much. If he was white I bet nobody would even say anything. Stupid lower class rednecks.

Judge: Obama eligible to be Georgia candidate

President Barack Obama’s name will remain on the Georgia primary ballot after a state law judge flatly rejected legal challenges that contend he can not be a candidate.

In a 10-page order, Judge Michael Malihi dismissed one challenge that contended Obama has a computer-generated Hawaiian birth certificate, a fraudulent Social Security number and invalid U.S. identification papers. He also turned back another that claimed the president is ineligible to be a candidate because his father was not a U.S. citizen at the time of Obama's birth.

The findings by Malihi, a judge for the State Office of Administrative Hearings, go to Secretary of State Brian Kemp, who will make the final determination. Last month, at a hearing boycotted by Obama's lawyer, Malihi considered complaints brought by members of the so-called "birther" movement.

With regard to the challenge that Obama does not have legitimate birth and identification papers, Malihi said he found the evidence "unsatisfactory" and "insufficient to support plaintiffs' allegations."

A number of the witnesses who testified about the alleged fraud were never qualified as experts in birth records, forged documents and document manipulation and "none ... provided persuasive testimony," Malihi wrote.

Addressing the other claim that contends Obama cannot be a candidate because his father was never a U.S. citizen, Malihi said he was persuaded by a 2009 ruling by the Indiana Court of Appeals decision that struck down a similar challenge. In that ruling, the Indiana court found that children born within the U.S. are natural-born citizens, regardless of the citizenry of their parents.

Obama "became a citizen at birth and is a natural-born citizen," Malihi wrote. Accordingly, Obama is eligible as a candidate for the upcoming presidential primary in March, the judge said.
