   Sounds to me like this judge took the case just to legally whip her ass.   
   He could have denied the case to begin with, but chose not to.   
      
   Taitz has yet to understand that nowhere in the Constitution does it   
   mention anything about having to prove where one was born or how that proof   
   is to be shown.   
      
   The really big question should be, under which name is he legally known?   
   US citizens do not get student foreign aid. There is documentation showing   
   Barry Soreotoro received foreign aid at occidental college. Yet, in Hawaii   
   he attended high school as Barack Obama.
