Eligibility lawyer to become election favorite?
Taitz seeking position as secretary of state to audit Obama’s credentials

A lead plaintiff in one of the early lawsuits alleging Barack Obama is not eligible to occupy the Oval Office – a case still pending at the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals – has filed another lawsuit against the sitting Democrat California Secretary of State, Debra Bowen, and a GOP challenger that could leave her attorney, Orly Taitz, as a top contender for the state office there.
Pamela Barnett was a lead plaintiff in the case Barnett v. Obama which sought a court ruling that Obama does not, in fact, qualify to be president under the Constitution’s demand for the president to be a “natural born citizen.”
Some of the plaintiffs in the case were represented by Taitz, an attorney and dentist who has spearheaded several of the high-profile cases against Obama. Other plaintiffs were represented by Gary Kreep.
There’s a new strategy to get answers to Obama’s eligibility questions. See how you can help.
The case ultimately was dismissed by Judge David Carter, who held hearings on the issue but finally concluded his court had no role to play in what then was proposed as the removal of a sitting president for ineligibility.
Later, Taitz, who has sued Bowen several times, trying to get her to take action on Obama’s alleged ineligibility, announced her plans to seek the office of secretary of state in California so that she could demand the documentation of eligibility from Obama herself.
Now comes the new case from Barnett, who told WND that it was filed pro se and seeks to remove Damon Dunn from the Republican primary election in opposition to Taitz. It also seeks to remove Bowen from the general election ballot as incompetent and untrustworthy, she told WND.
Such a scenario would, in fact, position Taitz, whose name is well-known across the state from her work on the Obama eligibility issue, as probably the highest-profile candidate to remain.
Barnett told WND that her challenge to Dunn is based on evidence that he was registered as a Democrat in Florida shortly before staking his claim to the GOP nomination for secretary of state in California, and to Bowen is based on her refusal to act on complaints about election law infraction allegations. Barnett also targets California Attorney General Jerry Brown for not responding to her documentation about Bowen and Dunn.
Brian Burch, who is with the Dunn campaign, said about Taitz, “You’re looking at someone who’s really trying to get her name in the paper.”
He noted the case was filed by “one of her supporters.”
The earlier case by Taitz where Barnett was plaintiff involved nearly four dozen people who mostly hold various military ranks who challenged Obama’s eligibility. Among the other plaintiffs was former presidential candidate Alan Keyes.
In his opinion dismissing the earlier case, Carter wrote, “Plaintiffs argue that despite the fact that President Obama has produced a birth certificate from the state of Hawaii, there is evidence to show that the president was actually born in Kenya, thus making him ineligible to be president.”
In fact, the only document released that would fit the description the judge used is a “Certification of Live Birth” that was posted on the Internet. It’s a computer-generated image and experts have said it doesn’t prove much, since such documents under Hawaii law were available to children not born in the state.
“There may very well be a legitimate role for the judiciary to interpret whether the natural born citizen requirement has been satisfied in the case of a presidential candidate who has not already won the election and taken office. However, on the day that President Obama took the presidential oath and was sworn in, he became president of the United States. Any removal of him from the presidency must be accomplished through the Constitution’s mechanisms for the removal of a president, either through impeachment or the succession process set forth in the Twenty-Fifth Amendment,” the judge found.
Barnett’s new case was filed in Superior Court of California in Sacramento, and explains that to be eligible to run for secretary of state, which is the state’s chief elections officer, “a declared and a nominated candidate shall under [Paragraph] 201 of the California Elections Code ‘be a registered voter and otherwise qualified to vote for the office at the time nomination papers are issued.'”
But the lawsuit alleges Dunn filed a registration to vote in California and to affiliate with the California Republican Party on March 13, 2009. And it explains that state law requires that a candidate not have been “registered as affiliated with a qualified political party other than that political party the nomination of which he seeks within 12 months…”
It explains that Dunn on Nov. 5, 2009, “who had been registered and enrolled/affiliated with the Florida Democratic Party within 12 months, filed the declaration for his candidate for the California Republican Party nomination…”
Further, the case accuses Dunn of trying to expunge his Florida record so it could not be traced.
“According to a letter written April 13, 2010, by Jean Marie Atkins Director of Voter Administration the Duval County Board of Election and obtained in person by Dr. Orly Taitz while in Florida … Defendant Dunn contacted the Florida Board of Elections to have any record of enrollment or affiliation with the Florida Democratic Party in the Duval County database expunged from the official record,” the lawsuit claims.
An earlier complaint to the state’s elections office generated no response, the lawsuit explains, despite the evidence of an infraction.

This is great coverage. I am wondering, though, why there is no mention of Obama’s multiple SS numbers–I think this is even more damning than the CT number, and would be even harder to explain away.
I noticed that Orly did not mention the multiple numbers on recent radio interviews either. Is there some problem with that aspect?

and add to those edifying reports on WND, more in the world of Alternative press that Obama’s Birth registration was FILED, but NEVER FULLY ACCEPTED!
Got to love it!
Brought to his knees by his own deceit…he published it online and asked America to swallow!
America spit it back up and found it contained Constitutional Botulism.
