Question of Authority

There continues to be speculation over the location of the president-elect's birth. An actual birth certificate has not been produced, but rather a "certificate of live birth," which is quite different. It can be filed within one year of someone's birth. [link: here]

According to the U.S. Constitution, Article 2, Section 1:

No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President[...]

This isn't partisanship, this is a question of the authority of the United States Constitution. If the President-Elect already can cause the judiciary branch to turn a blind eye to the supreme law of the United States over something as simple as a birth certificate, this country is in for more trouble than the recession. There is something really wrong here, and to write it off by considering skeptics to be doomsayers is irresponsible to the preservation of our democracy. Pride in one's country is more important than unbridled pride in one's president, especially when not much is known of his motives or agenda.
