What does that have to do with our laws and rules about who can serve as President of this country? Make a better case! Be a leader and stop being a follower! Thanks for posting...

His fight isn't against being deployed, per se, rather against being deployed under illegal orders. He wants to step up and protect himself and the soldiers under his command...furthermore, he wants to provide factual evidence of the president's ineligibility to hold office. Personally, i was deployed under the orders of the former commander in chief, so im golden....but if one deploys under Obama's orders and he is found to be ineligible for the presidency, the geneva convention would not apply to the soldiers deployed under illegal orders....and i dont want that to be me, so i definitely applaud this officer. He is doing the right thing, taking the hard right, instead of the easy wrong. There should NEVER be any questions as to weather or not our nation's leader and commander in chief is even eligible and his refusal to provide hard evidence is to say the least, a little suspicious.

He's provided plenty of evidence, and every time he does, the people obsessing over it stick their fingers in their ears and go "la la la la"

You folks are not going to overturn the results of an election you don't like by cooking up some transparently phony technical foul.

It's ridiculous

He is going to go to Afghanistan or to prison, I can promise you that. The court system doesn't take Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity as a source of information. This poor gullible fool is going to be in real trouble for believing this "Obama isn't president" crap.

As far as thinking people filing suit means anything, I can file a lawsuit over anything that doesn't mean it has any credibility. If Obama wasn't qualified to be POTUS it would have been settled a long time ago. I have never in my life seen such a bunch of sore losers. So just keep shaking your heads back and forth and telling yourself, "He can't be President, he's not qualified" until you change reality.

Did you support those that refused to go to Iraq under a similar premise of illegality?

If it comes down to simple opinion based on rumor and speculation and not on any facts, as with this case, then I suspect a lot of people will be creating scenarios that no longer obligate them to be deployed anywhere they don't wish to be in the near future.

See how this could cause a problem?

It's a free country, you can question or claim anything.

Someone sued a dry cleaner for 54 million over a pair of lost pants.
Someone sued Bush and Cheney for the Iraq war.

The federal court in Philadelphia and even the supreme court have thrown out this claim based on a lack of evidence, so not only is he challenging the President, but rejecting the rulings of the U.S. judicial system.

If he doesn't have personal proof to back up his claim, he's being very foolish and NO a newspaper clipping from Ghana won't cut it.

I find it moronic to try and deny your legal duty based on nothing but rumor and speculation. At least the Iraq war was declared illegal by some so that argument used by a few soldiers had a little more legging.

In my opinion this man is either desperate to avoid deployment while attempting to save face, is such a fool that when he received a bunch of chain emails he actually BELIEVED all the contents therein were literal facts (surprisingly it happens), or is serving a political agenda.

I wonder if he will represent himself in court to "seal the deal" on one of those possibilities?

Where is the birth certificate that records who the doctor was that delivered him, and the name of the hospital in which it took place?

Is that really too much to ask?

Imagine an enemy of the USA, manages to get himself elected, with the aid of the mainstream media, with a strategy to fool the ignorant masses by making them feel smart for supporting their agent?

I wonder what that individual might do, to render the USA into another failed socialist state?

Deliberately collapse our capitalist economy? Nationalise our industries? Tell private citizens who work in private business how much they can earn?

Forcing the population into financial ruin would make them dependent on the state for food, housing and healthcare... transforming a servant government into one where the people are now servants.

Why, such an individual could appoint the most deranged, radical moonbats to offices of power, and quickly pass crippling laws with complete impunity, thanks to the state propaganda machine we know as the press looking the other way...

Wow, I wonder what it would be like if that ever happened here?

im saying that there is too much speculation about his eligibility for it to be coincidince. this could be a good chance for obama to lay the issue to rest once and for all. you cant refuse to deploy and if you do, then you shouldnt be in the army in the first place, but deploying under illegal orders is different. im sure that if the case makes it and obama is shown to be eligible for the presidency beyone a reasonable doubt, this officer will dilligently deploy and carry out his duty. He is NOT denying his legal duty, he is upholding it by questioning an order that could be illegal.

We could ask the same of you.

The recent Afghanistan war started under George Bush, our previous President, the fact that the military STILL needs people under Obama doesn't allow soldiers a loophole out of service if they don't like the newcomer.

There is NO evidence to even back up this soldiers claims and the U.S. courts have already seen this to be a joke not worth consideration.

He is avoiding his obligations and putting other soldiers in potential danger now, and in the near future when other such nonsensical claims can help you bail out of service or tie up your deployment in a legal loophole and short change the troops already serving.

I hope he isn't thinking this move is patriotic.

BO has spent quite a bit of our money on legal teams to keep his b.c. from inquiring eyes.

The news media of course, doesnt find anything newsworthy about this...

Curious, that.
