Media finally paying attention to eligibility? See which major networks plan on covering Cold Case Posse results PHOENIX, Ariz. – Poll after poll in recent months has indicated that Americans have a high level of concern over Barack Obama’s eligibility to be president, with one poll showing fully half of the nation wants Congress to investigate the question. But reporters for the traditional media – networks, major newspapers, major news corporations and conglomerates – mostly have giggled when talk turns to the serious question of just what the U.S. Constitution requires of presidents.

JohnnySeeds.com Nevertheless, media organizations from all political persuasions are seeking admittance to a news conference to be held by Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Ariz. The event is tomorrow at 1 p.m. Mountain Standard Time in Phoenix, 3 p.m. Eastern, and will be live-streamed by WND. The topic of discussion will be an investigation by Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse into concerns about Obama’s eligibility. It’s the first time an official law enforcement report has addressed many of the allegations about the presumptive 2012 Democratic nominee for president. The issues include Obama’s eligibility under the U.S. Constitution’s requirements, questions about his use of a Connecticut Social Security number and the image of his purported birth certificate from Hawaii. In addition to the live-streaming, WND will make available to the public, the same day by email, the official report distributed to media by Arpaio’s investigators. Those interested in receiving the report can sign up for the free service. Top national media organizations have indicated their plans to attend, and bookings for radio and television reports are in the works. Expected are reporters from the Associated Press, Reuters, Univision, the Washington Times and NBC, CBS and ABC affiliates, as well statewide radio networks, among many others. Because of the circumstances, a decision was made to hold the press conference at the sheriff’s training center on the outskirts of Phoenix, rather than at the downtown office. The event is expected to draw protesters who object to the sheriff’s office review of allegations that Obama may attempt to use a fraudulent document to have his name placed on the 2012 presidential election ballot in Arizona. Without releasing any details, Arpaio has said the findings “could be a shock.” He constituted a special five-member law enforcement posse last year to investigate allegations brought by members of the Surprise, Ariz., Tea Party that the Obama birth certificate released to the public by the White House on April 27 might be a forgery. The posse is made up of three former law enforcement officers and two retired attorneys with law enforcement experience. Members have been examining evidence since September concerning Obama’s eligibility to be president under Article 2, Section 1 of the Constitution, which requires a president to be a natural-born citizen. Among other issues, there also have been allegations of Obama’s use of a Social Security number that corresponds to a Connecticut address, even though the president apparently had no links there. WND earlier reported a private investigation found that the Social Security number being used by Obama does not pass a check with E-Verify, the electronic system the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has created to verify whether or not someone is authorized to work legally in the country. Arpaio’s investigation is the first official law enforcement look at the allegations surrounding Obama’s eligibility. Many of the private investigators who have examined it contend there are too many questionable circumstances to believe that everything regarding Obama is above-board. Arpaio previously told WND that when he launched his Cold Case Posse it was with the possibility that he would clear Obama. He said it wasn’t an issue he could ignore, after 250 members of the tea party organization “came to me and asked their sheriff to investigate Obama and the birth certificate.” SIGN UP NOW TO GET FREE COPY OF ARPAIO REPORT AS SOON AS IT IS DISTRIBUTED TO PRESS MARCH 1. The WND TV live-streaming coverage of the news conference Thursday is possible through the support of the Western Center for Journalism. The decisions in dozens of court cases over the last few years questioning Obama’s eligibility were typified by a recent decision in Georgia in which several individuals filed challenges to Obama’s name on the 2012 ballot and provided evidence to a hearing officer. Even though Obama and his lawyer deliberately snubbed the case – the lawyer wrote the judge a letter in advance telling him Obama would not attend – the judge threw out the evidence presented by several attorneys and ruled in favor of Obama. Similar ballot challenges are being filed in a long list of other states already. The Arpaio investigators were given the case following a meeting held in the sheriff’s office Aug. 17, 2011, with tea party representatives from Surprise, Ariz., who presented a petition signed by more than 250 Maricopa County residents. The petitioners expressed concern that their voting rights could be irreparably compromised if Obama uses a forged birth certificate to be placed on the 2012 presidential ballot in Arizona or otherwise is found to be ineligible. The tea party letter formally stated the following charge: “The Surprise Tea Party is concerned that no law enforcement agency or other duly constituted government agency has conducted an investigation into the Obama birth certificate to determine if it is in fact an authentic copy of 1961 birth records on file for Barack Obama at the Hawaii Department of Health in Honolulu, or whether it, or they are forgeries.” The posse was constituted as a 501(c)3 organization, designed to cost the people of Maricopa County nothing, while enabling people from around the country to contribute to its mission. Those wishing to send a tax-deductible contribution directly to the Cold Case Posse may do so by mailing a check or money order to: MCSO Cold Case Posse, P.O. Box 74374, Phoenix, AZ 85087. WND has reported that dozens of experts with varying ranges of competency who have looked at the situation believe the birth documentation image released by Obama last year is not genuine. A flying-banner and billboard campaign to let people know about the questions regarding eligibility that was started by WND CEO and Editor Joseph Farah also has raised the public’s awareness of the situation. Farah wrote recently that the underlying question to be determined is whether the U.S. Constitution remains the law of the land, or whether it has become “an archaic old document that needs to be amended.” “At its core, it’s really quite simple: Does Article II, Section 1 of the Constitution dealing with who can serve as president of the United States simply mean that any citizen age 35 or older is eligible? If so, why did the founders use a different term altogether – ‘natural born citizen’? What is a ‘natural born citizen’? Is it anyone born in the United States? If so, why have candidates born outside the United States been deemed eligible? Do we owe it to America’s future to go back in history to determine what that term actually means? “Until now, as hard as it may be to believe, no official vetting of Obama’s credentials has been done – not by the 50 secretaries of state who oversee elections, not by the Federal Elections Commission that administers the nation’s elections laws, not by the Electoral College, not by any judge in America, not by Congress, not by anyone,” he continued. Even before the results become public, Farah said he’s confident there will be a significant impact. “I strongly believe it could be a game-changer,” he said.

Hope he at least mentions anchor baby Mitts ineligibility too.
Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Welcome to the site. The press conference should be interesting.
Yes. verrrrrry interesting, thanks.
Welcome whyofcourse. I honestly think it won't matter what evidence he has on Obama, just about everyone who has followed this story fromj 08', knows that Obama may be guilty as sin of all the accusations made against him...but The real test for Sheriff Joe, or anyone, is to find a judge in the US who has not been corrupted, and will examine all the evidence put forth to him, and make a fair judgement based on that evidence. It would be icing on the cake if a judge could actually call up the courage and do his duty and ORDER Obama and his council to show up in person and answer to the charges being made, and if they do not obey that order, then the judge should slap them, like he would any other citizen, with Contempt of Court...jmho!

One thing for sure Judge John Roll will not be on the case.
Citizen parents would make location of birth irrelevant !
If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing ! Commas - semicolons - question marks are for girlie boys !
Obongo's father was never a US citizen, he was a British subject. Did Mitt's father ever renounce his Mexican citizenship and allegiance to Aztlan? Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
The mormon cult bothers me worse !

Did Mitt's father ever renounce his Mexican citizenship and allegiance to Aztlan? Obama's father, Obama Sr. was born, 18 June 1936, in Rachuonyo District on the shores of Lake Victoria just outside Kendu Bay, Kenya Colony, at the time a colony of the British Empire. He was raised in the village of Nyang’oma Kogelo, Siaya District, Nyanza Province.

Horseshit. A natural born citizen is born on US soil of US citizen parents.
Location is irrelevant ! More like native born ! W / o the citizen parents ... 100 % INELIGIBLE --- for president ! They can serve in the congress - senate !
If you ... don't use exclamation points --- you should't be typeing ! Commas - semicolons - question marks are for girlie boys !
Oh yeah, you globalist neotard bushbot liberal traitors, love the "guest workers" !!! Obama's watch stopped on 24 May 2008, but he's been too busy smoking crack to notice.
Too little, too late. This same or similar idea has been circulating 2006 and has gone nowhere. And it shall hit another brick wall, tomorrow.
I haven't seen Matt posting anywhere in a long time,but I suspect he still has an account over on LP and at FR.

Low intelligence - sub humans are confusing natural born with anchor babies ! It goes with the territory - spear chucking - white hating - affirmative final action ! I always thought you had a welfare fatherless mama !
