Obama Fomenting A Constitutional Crisis

Controversy continues to surround President-elect Barack Obama's eligibility to serve as president, and a case involving his birth certificate waits for its day before the U.S. Supreme Court. A constitutional lawyer said were it to be discovered that Mr. Obama is not a natural-born U.S. citizen, it would have grave consequences for the nation.

According to the Constitution, a president must be a natural born citizen of the U.S. Mr. Obama's critics have failed to force him legally to produce his original birth certificate, and Mr. Obama has resisted any attempt to make him do so.

Any appointments made by an ineligible president would have to be recalled, and their decisions would be invalidated.

Several court cases in the birth certificate controversy are waiting admission to the Supreme Court.
