Doctor sues to have President Barack Obama removed from Kentucky ballot
A Louisville anesthesiologist who has filed in Kentucky to run for president has asked a Frankfort court to bar President Barack Obama from the November ballot.
Dr. Todd House filed the lawsuit Aug. 10 claiming that Obama is not a “natural born” citizen.
Such claims have been put forward by Obama opponents — often called “birthers” — since he first ran for president in 2008. They claim Obama was born in the African nation of Kenya.
State officials in Hawaii have said repeatedly that Obama was born in that state.
But some Obama opponents, including House, claim the president’s Hawaiian birth certificate is falsified.
In seeking a temporary restraining order to keep Obama off the Kentucky ballot, House claims not only that the president was born in Kenya but that he is not eligible to be president because his father was not a U.S. citizen.
He also claims Obama never re-established U.S. citizenship after moving to Indonesia as a child.
House has subpoenaed Obama to testify in the case.
He filed the suit “pro se,” meaning he did so without a lawyer.
The case has been assigned to Franklin Circuit Judge Thomas Wingate.

Todd
House, M.D. of Louisville, KY, a candidate for President of the United States,
has filed an action in Kentucky Circuit Court challenging Barack Obama's
eligibility for the office of the President and therefore the presence of his
name on the ballot in Kentucky.
In many
ballot challenge cases elsewhere, courts have ruled that ordinary citizens
cannot bring a ballot challenge, saying that such citizens have no
"standing". Kentucky, however, has a statute, KRS 118.176, that
specifically allows any voter to challenge the bona fides of a candidate.
Furthermore,
our plaintiff, Todd House, is also registered with the Kentucky Secretary of
State as a write in candidate for President, which gives him greater potential
for harm, from a candidate who is not bone fide being on the ballot, which
gives him standing beyond that of an ordinary citizen. As backup, we are also
using the other causes of action from the Do It Yourself Ballot Challenge
Kit.
Todd
is an entrepreneur, physician, libertarian and, most importantly, a
Constitutionalist. He is a business owner, father of five and a decorated
veteran. He served as a flight surgeon in both the US Navy and US Air
Force where he achieved the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
Todd
is passionate about liberty, limited government, checks and balances and the US
Constitution, especially the Tenth Amendment.
He
takes seriously both his duty as a citizen and his oath as a military officer
to protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic.
He refuses to sit idly by while his country is deconstructed and Constitution
nullified by enemies hiding in plain sight.
Todd’s
call to action is “Don't Tread on Me.”
Sam Sewell, head of the ballot challenge group reminds patriots
nationwide, “If we file enough similar cases, then we have a better chance of
finding that one courageous judge we need to be victorious.
