Just because some of the SBOE members won by a majority vote in November does not mean indivuals were voting with any thought or awareness. Most voted straight ticket. This is why we continue to have David Bradley, one the most ignorant and arrogant SBOE members, representing Galveston, Clear Lake, Pasadena, etc. People need to wake up and know for whom they are voting. Some have simply become mindless golems.

The scary thing about the SBOE debacle is that a graduate of Regent (i.e. Pat Robertson U) University could actually carve a living out of practicing law. Why any sane individual would use Dunbar as counsel is beyond me. It really is a sad state of affairs that some of these zealots don’t give a darn about the future of kids in this state.

What’s it pay? And why are we paying her anything at all? Oh, maybe because some of the people on here vote? I mean really, I thought D had an educated reader base. Alas.

Here is his birth certificate from HAWAII, the 50th state in the union. He was born there in 1961, after it was made a state.

Get a grip on reality and learn history and geography, people.

Isn’t this thread about DUNBAR,anyway?

Every conservative on the SBOE this election cycle won by a wide majority on Nov. 4… so it appears they do represent a segment of Texas voters.

Assuming his citizenship status is not legitimate, what happens now? Is Biden president-elect? Is Cheney Dear Leader for Life? (Joking.) Does the Supreme Court weigh in? There is no precedent.

One thing’s for sure — if these allegations are proven and his presidency proceeds, the Self-Anointed Patriots Among Us will actually have a leg to stand on when they snivel, “He’s not my President!” … which of course will be just great for the future of our Republic.

Maybe we can just make Zac president, and he can peel the White House plaster by blasting Johnny Thunders. Thoughts on this matter from legal-minded FBvians?

OK, DV, my brains have just exploded. Why does everything have to be so dang complicated?

They are saying that at the time, the parent had to live for 5 years in the US after their 14th birthday and his mother was not old enough to meet that requirement when she had him (she was 18). His father was Muslim and they have a tendency to want to control that sort of thing. They are also claiming to have a certified birth certificate from a hospital in Kenya which would coincide with his grandmother’s story. The DNC should have been all over this and proved up a long time ago. The NY Times ran this story about McCain’s citizenship which was questioned. The press has been quiet about the Obama story.

And that whole “Obama wasn’t born here and it’s in the courts” story was debunked awhile ago. Any idiot can file petitions for whatever they want (Berg), but that doesn’t make it true. His was dismissed for being “frivolous and not worthy of discussion.” (Snopes)
