verification process to check qualifications of presidential candidates during the 2008 elections

One question still unanswered from the past election is whether or not Barrack Obama is a natural born citizen. The real question that needs to be answered is what process is followed to verify the qualification of presidential candidates before their names are placed on the ballot. According to the Electoral College website of the National Archives and Records Administration, it is the responsibility of each state's Secretary of State.

Maryland's Secretary of State is the honorable John McDonough. So, I sent him the following question to his email address: JMcDonough@sos.state.md.us.

subject: verification process to check qualifications of presidential candidates during the 2008 elections

Honorable McDonough,


How were the qualifications of the 2008 candidates for President of the United States verified by your office?

Thank You,
Hyrum

We'll see what response, if any, I receive.

Update:

I hadn't heard anything back, so I resent the email at 12/3/2008 10:56 PM, but this time to the other email address that I had found: swiedemer@sos.state.md.us, for Maryland's Secretary of State.

Thoughts on California Proposition 8

Here in Maryland, we didn't hear much about the proposition that was on the ballot in the recent election out in Califronia. However, it has been brought to light since the election with the protests by the gays in California.

Here are my brief thoughts on the issue:

I consider myself a libertarian, and it seems to me that the proposition in California was simply about redefining the legal definition of marriage to mean "between a man and a woman". This is how it had been until the California Supreme Court justices abused their power and authority from interpreting law to changing law. The people spoke back and have now corrected the mistake of the judges.

The gay community seems to be completely confused about the whole thing. They seem to have made the issue about hate and equality. This is very sad. I bet most of the gay community have not even taken the time to carefully read the proposition and taken the time and effort to understand the events that led up to the proposition. Why don't they just make up a new word like "garriage" or something for gay marriage and ask for a law to be passed that give them the same rights that heterosexual couples have with marriage.

I think this letter makes a good argument about the protests that have followed the election: Open Letter to Protesters of LDS Support of Prop 8

Communism in Japan

While researching John Birch, because I recently stumbled upon The John Birch Society, I noticed a link about related stories, Communism Is Alive and Well and Living in Japan, and followed it. Check it out if you'd like: Time article Communism Is Alive and Well and Living in Japan by Bryan Walsh Friday, Jun. 22, 2007

Oregon Senator Gordon Smith deserved to lose

From Time article For the Republicans, It Could Have Been Worse By Michael Grunwald Wednesday, Nov. 05, 2008:

Obama won double-digit victories in both states, and Coleman and Smith are both milquetoast pols who did much less than McCain ever did to distance themselves from the President until his low approval ratings began to threaten their re-elections. Smith was so desperate to distance himself from the GOP that he ran ads touting his cooperation with Obama.

To me this shows lack of conviction to your principles. As a conservative, not only would I find it hard to support him, I would oppose him. We need solid conservative political leaders in public service who stand by their laurels. He has proven not to be what we need. So, good riddance.

I'm reminded; when I was home visiting family in Oregon this past August, I saw a TV advertisement and was not impressed with Gordon Smith. I forgot what the substance or message of the ad. was, but I remember thinking that it wasn't somebody that I would support or vote for. This was before I even knew that he was a Republican. In fact, I believe that I assumed he was a democrat from what I heard and saw in the ad. It later surprised me to learn that he was a Republican; I exclaimed "must be a RHINO". You can imagine my further surprise when I learned even later that he was a member of my faith. But that shouldn't surprise me too much, as there are members of both political parties throughout The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In fact, you might want to sit down, because I can still hardly believe this is true, but it's been told to me and confirmed by several members of the church that Harry Reid himself is a member of the church. Now that is .... well, I have not the words to describe what I think about that, or him...

Hey, what about the "natural born citizen" constitutional requirement?

I still don't know if Obama is a natural born citizen or not. At first I was skeptical when I first heard the argument a few months ago. But, as of yet, we the American people, have not been shown proof that Obama is a natural born citizen. Until we do, we must assume that he is an illegitimate president.

Furthermore, he has committed a felony (see my post from 2008-09-17) and should be brought to trial. It is our duty to pursue this. I have yet to hear back from my congressmen that I wrote. I will follow up and report. I urge you to do the same.

Race and Communism - Objective Accomplished - Ready the Counter Revolution

"The Communist Party, USA, has its orders direct from the Communist International in Moscow -- fan the resentment of the American Negroes until it bursts into flame, next feed the flames until our nation is engulfed in horrible holocaust. Then the white American Communist will strike with full fury within, so that we shall be sore beset and wide open for attack from without... I can only repeat that the Communist effort in this direction is unceasing." (Julia Brown, Negro Ex-F.B.I. Undercover Agent; I Testify, p. 179; quoted by Ezra Taft Benson, An Enemy Hath Done This, p. 109)

What have we been witnessing? Eerie, isn't it? We are witnessing the unfolding of what was described in the above quote. From Ayres to Obama. They are now in striking position. This is what they have been working, conspiring, and fighting for.

My stomach churned as I was sickened by the picture of the masses thronged together awaiting Obama's victory speech; just a short while ago. I could barely stand to watch. (In fact I didn't) Children on parent's shoulders, clinging to the American flag; our great symbol of liberty and freedom; that symbol so despised by Obama, Ayres, and the Left. The poor fools have themselves ushered in the next chapter in the Fascist/Communist revolution in America. An international socialist regime is on the horizon.

We must band together and rise up against the Left. The election may be over, but our loss at hand means that we have all the more work cut out for us. There is no time to waste. We have another election in two short years. Lets start campaigning to take over as many seats in congress as possible, and as much local and state positions of political power. We may be able to yet prevent a horrible civil war and perhaps even the holocaust referred to by the communists.

Hopefully, the masses that have been against us will be awakened and see the light, the poor fools. They have placed a fascist anti-Christ in the White House. May God help us!

Perhaps I'm over reacting. Perhaps I am becoming more and more of a right wing fanatic. Could it be that listening to Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, and Sean Hannity, along with reading the Bible, the Book of Mormon, and listening to the teachings of modern day prophets in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, along with main stream Christian leaders, have clouded my reasoning and thought process? I don't think those sources of truth would betray me. No, I think that I am right. Perhaps it is a calling. I feel called. So, therefore I answer the call. I only hope that my wife will come around and be supportive of me. After all, it is for her benefit along with my children, and our posterity that we sacrifice and fight. For what else is there?

I think Captain Moroni, in the Book of Mormon, said it best when he "rent his coat; and he took a piece thereof, and wrote upon it—In memory of our God, our religion, and freedom, and our peace, our wives, and our children—and he fastened it upon the end of a pole. And he fastened on his head-plate, and his breastplate, and his shields, and girded on his armor about his loins; and he took the pole, which had on the end thereof his rent coat, (and he called it the title of liberty) and he bowed himself to the earth, and he prayed mightily unto his God for the blessings of liberty to rest upon his brethren, so long as there should a band of Christians remain to possess the land—" (The Book of Mormon, Alma 46:12-13)

May we be ever vigilant and never found complacent or negligent of our duties. Please awake, arise, and join with me, and all other American conservatives who believe in the Judaeo-Christian principles that our country was founded on. Let us hold our title of liberty, our constitution, high above our head and close to our hearts. Let us hold those accountable who have sworn to uphold it and have broken their oath. Let us seek out and support righteous leaders to serve in public office, and rise to the occasion when none other is found. Let us take back our country, in memory of our God, religion, freedom, peace, & families.

May God bless America and bless us with the strength, courage, perseverance, determination, tenacity, aptitude, and power to wage this righteous counter revolution!

My son is about to leave on a mission to California. I hope the results from this trashy attack on our religion doesn't have an adverse affect on the way people treat him.

Obama threatens to bankrupt coal industry

If only the election were delayed for a few more weeks or months; imageine how much we could still learn about Obama. I'm so amazed that there is so much dirt that continues to surface. You'd think by now that the media would have discovered and revealed all of this. However, most of the critical information seems to be coming from blogs, radio, and foreign sources. What has happened to our domestic news agencies?

Anyway, most of the dirt of late has been from Obama himself; words out of his own mouth; hard to refute or repudiate. If only the media would do their job. I'm so glad that I didn't just graduate with a degree in journalism. The "professionals" have completely discredited their profession; they themselves rely on basement bloggers; might as well buy yourself a new laptop, kick your feet up, and start blogging.

So what was I going to point out in this post again? Oh yeah, see the link below for the latest dirt; Obama blatently stating how he will kill the coal industry. Is it obvious yet, Obama and the Ayers' revolution, their attack on capitalism and the foundation of our free society?

now we're selfish?!

So, now Barrack says we're selfish, and that we wouldn't share our toys or food with classmates in kindergarten like he did because we believe in individual rights and the free market economic system; because we believe that man ought to be able and be allowed to be charitable without compulsion by a government.

Throughout his campaign we have been called an embarrassment, racist, redneck, and bitter clingers to our bibles, guns, and religion. Now he says we're selfish!

Absurd!!

"racist" keyword in "leftist/socialist" vocab for someone telling truth

We know that the left re-defines words to suit them. I've been wondering why they've been calling everyone racist. I mean, they even called Bill Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro racist. Now Michelle Obama has called the African Press International (API) racist. It has become apparent that "racist" is defined in the left's dictionary to mean "someone who tells the truth".
  1. API stunned
  2. Shocking development: Mrs Obama decides enough is enough: “My husband was born in Hawaii and adopted by his step father, does that make him unpatriotic; she asks”, on a direct telephone to API.

What is Obama hiding? Can we have some honesty?

from http://colony14.net/id41.html:

Obama continues to refuse to provide the media with school records, passports, college theses, law school records, law firm clients, medical records, Illinois State Senate files, and other documents about his record.

The quote listed in the header of this blog is an abridgment of a quote of Ezra Taft Benson. Here it is in it's entirety:

In times as serious as these, we must not permit fear of criticism to keep us from doing our duty, even at the risk of our counsel being tabbed as political, as government becomes more and more entwined in our daily lives. In the crisis through which we are now passing, we have been fully warned. There are some of us who do not want to hear the message. It embarrasses us. The things which are threatening our lives, our welfare, our freedoms are the very things some of us have been condoning. Many do not want to be disturbed as they continue to enjoy their comfortable complacency. There can be no neutrality! We are, or we are not, on the side of the Lord! (Ezra Taft Benson, 1973)
