FLORIDA COURT SETS HEARING ON OBAMA BALLOT CHALLENGE FOR JUNE 18, 2012
Judge Terry Lewis
States "Natural Born Citizen" Definition Will Be Decided
May 31, 2012, Tallahassee, FL - Activist attorney Larry
Klayman announced today that Judge Terry Lewis of Leon County, FL has set a
hearing on June 18th, 2012 at 9:00am to hear arguments from both sides about
whether the eligibility of President Barack Hussein Obama can be determined in
open court. Judge Lewis made crucial rulings in the famous Bush v. Gore
case in 2000.
Florida's election statutes provide broad protections for
voters to ensure that the integrity of the election system is beyond reproach.
One of such laws allows voters to challenge the nomination of a candidate who
is not eligible for the office he is seeking. Plaintiff Michael Voeltz, a
registered Democrat, challenged the eligibility of President Obama because he
was not born to two citizen parents and thus not a "natural born
citizen" as required by Article II the U.S. Constitution.
During the hearing over discovery issues, which Mr. Klayman
wants to take the week of June 18, Judge Lewis noted that Mr. Klayman's
brief cited legal authority that a president, to be eligible, must have two (2)
U.S. citizen parents, but President Obama and the other defendants cited no
authority to the contrary. Mr. Klayman had cited the U.S. Supreme
Court case of Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162 (1875). Judge Lewis
ordered further briefing on this issue prior to the hearing.
Klayman stressed that the eligibility is very important
particularly with this president, Barack Hussein Obama. He added:
"The framers were not stupid. They understood that a president with
divided loyalties could present a security and other risks for our
nation. Obama's Muslim heritage, which emanates from his Kenyan father
(who had to be deported from the U.S.), frankly explains why he frequently
sides with and takes actions to further the interests of Muslim nations against
the United States; specifically his refusal to take forceful action against the
Islamic Republic of Iran and its leaders over nuclear armament and human rights
violations and atrocities."
In a CNN interview yesterday Donald Trump stated 'Obama
hates this subject' meaning the eligibility issue. This is because he
appears not to be a legitimate American president, but instead an imposter who
has fooled many. Unfortunately, the American people are the victims.
It's time that Obama, despite his protestations in proving his eligibility,
either put up or shut up by coming forward with real proof, not doctored,
computer-generated "proof" that he is eligible. The courts should
finally require this real proof as to whether he is eligible for office,"
Klayman added.
The case is entitled Voeltz v. Obama, et. al. (No.
2012 CA 467) and is being heard in the Circuit Court Of The Second Judicial
Circuit In And For Leon County, Florida. To request an interview please
