So, lets talk about this case in Georgia.

Apparently it all started with an AP article...

ATLANTA -- A judge has ordered President Barack Obama to appear in court in Atlanta for a hearing on a complaint that says Obama isn't a natural-born citizen and can't be president.

It's one of many such lawsuits that have been filed across the country, so far without success. A Georgia resident made the complaint, which is intended to keep Obama's name off the state's ballot in the March presidential primary.

An Obama campaign aide says any attempt to involve the president personally will fail and such complaints around the country have no merit.

The hearing is set for Thursday before an administrative judge. Deputy Chief Judge Michael Malihi on Friday denied a motion by the president's lawyer to quash a subpoena that requires Obama to show up.

Looking at the web site for the GA administrative court, it speaks about resolving disputes between the public and state agencies. Since this is a case about Obama appearing on the ballot in GA, I can see their standing.

What I dont understand is why they are insisting the Judge ordered Obama to appear.

According to the WH Obama wont be at the hearing. He will be out west.

The basis for this suit is here....

Our strategy is to keep it simple. The qualifications for President are that the candidate be:

a natural born Citizen
or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution (this no longer applies because there are no citizens that were alive at the time the Constitution was adopted),
and be the Age of thirty five Years,
and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
We concede Obama fulfills the last two qualifications. However, Obama can never fulfill the first qualification because his father was never a U.S. Citizen. Interestingly, the Senate website explaining these qualifications says,

“This… requirement raises the question of whether someone born to American parents outside of the United States would be eligible to hold the office.”

The official government website explaining the qualifications for President says that both parents must be “American”. It does not say “an American parent”. That the Congress has not pursued this issue is a travesty to our Constitution. Every member of Congress is a co-conspirator to the fraud being perpetrated on the American people.

Yet, the bolded part is not what the law states.

Anyone brave enough to take up the side of those filing the suit?
