Ninth Circuit Rules that Alan Keyes Did Not Have Standing to Challenge Obama Qualifications

On December 22, the 9th circuit issued a 29-page opinion in Drake v Obama, 09-56827. The case had been filed on January 20, 2009, a few hours after President Obama had been sworn into office. Among the plaintiffs were Alan Keyes, his vice-presidential running mate Wiley S. Drake, and Markham Robinson. Keyes and Drake were on the November 2008 ballot in California as the American Independent Party nominees.

The decision says that none of the plaintiffs have standing. The decision suggests that if Keyes and Drake had filed the lawsuit while the 2008 election was proceeding, they might have had standing. But it says the election was over when the lawsuit was filed, and that they haven’t alleged they will run again in 2012 against Obama. Thanks to Bill Van Allen for this news.

Ninth Circuit Rules that Alan Keyes Did Not Have Standing to Challenge Obama Qualifications — 4 Comments

  1. Qualified or NOT qualified to hold any office.

    Gee – who DOES have standing to enforce the Fed qualifications for U.S.A. Reps, Senators and even a Prez or Vice-Prez — if not the SOVEREIGN Electors-Voters or mere candidates for such offices ???

    Some alien from another universe ???

    Hmmm. Who/What caused the Constitution to take effect ???

    See Art. VII.

    Is everybody ready for gerrymander Civil WAR II in 2012-2013 ???

    i.e. Both EVIL sides playing their EVIL games to have PERMANENT control of the U.S.A. regime.

  2. How many folks on this list are utopian delusional whatevers in this New Age of more and more constitutional law MORONS — starting with the New Age appointed robot party hack SCOTUS MORONS ???

  3. It looks like the next thing is to ask the whole court in banc to look at this matter.

    I am looking to do it again. We had John McCain III, born in the Republic of Panama out of wedlock to a mother that was not employed by the United States Government or the Panama Railroad Company at his birth and Barack Obama II born as a Subject of the Sultan of
    Zanzibar under the terms of the Zanzibar Nationality
    Decree 1919 & a British Protected Person under the terms
    of of the British Nationality Act 1948. The sad thing
    both the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, place non-U. S. Citizens on a presidential ticket in 2008.

    Background, Barack Obama II’s mom was only 18 years at his birth, therefore to young in pass along her United States Citizenship to him. The requirement at the time
    if the father was not also a U.S. Citizen was the mother had to be a resident of the United States for ten years and five of those years after the age of 14.

    John S. McCain III was born to a United States Citizen
    mother who was not wed at the time of his birth in the
    Republic of Panama (Colon Hospital, Island of Colon on
    August 29, 1936). Therefore, to be part of the collective naturalization under Section 2 of the Act of
    Congress of August 4, 1937, his mother would have to be
    employed at the time by the United States Government or the Panama Railroad Company. She was not wed and was
    employeed by neither. Therefore, John S. McCain III,
    did not have a lawful entry into the United States in
    December, 1936.

    The American Independent party plan in 2012, run for
    President several people including Dr. Wiley Drake and
    Ed Noonan. Dr. Laurie Roth of Washington State will be
    running also. We in the AIP would like to run one of the 56 persons born on Midway Atoll. Two of the islands
    within Midway Atoll were islands covered under the terms of the Guano Islands Act of 1856, and therefore,
    were not claimed by the Republic of Hawai’i. Yet the
    State of Hawaii has issued Birth Certificates to persons born on Midway Island. This is an example of
    persons born outside the United States having an Hawai’i birth record.

    Also the AIP will vent and run a Sikaiana Atoll born person. Sikaiana is a small island group about 90 miles Northeast of Malaita Island, Solomon Islands that was annexed by the Hawaiian Kingdom on February 18, 1856. Persons born in that island group after April 30, 1900 are United States Citizens. Additionally George Peabody of Hawaii will be running AIP for President. The current plan is to also run Todd Palin
    of Alaska for President of the United States.

    Sincerely, Mark Seidenberg,
    Chairman, American Independent Party of California

    run
    became United States Citizens at birth.
