Army Officer Seeks Truth About Obama’s Eligibility to Serve in Oval Office, Invites Own Court-Martial
March 30th, 2010
In a news release today, Army Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin said he is willing to risk a court-martial in order if that’s what it takes to determine whether or not President Barack Obama is eligible to serve as president of the United States. Not your average officer, Colonel Lakin is the lead flight surgeon charged with caring for Army Chief of Staff General George W. Casey’s pilots and air crew.
The video above provides an overview of his argument.
“I am today compelled to make the distasteful choice to invite my own court martial, in pursuit of the truth about the president’s eligibility under the constitution to hold office”, said Colonel Lakin.
The news release cited (1) Article II, Sec. 1 of the U. S. Constitution which explicitly provides that only “natural born” citizens can serve as president and commander-in-chief and (2) Mr. Obama’s continued refusal to release his original 1961 birth certificate as reasons behind Colonel Lakin reaching the conclusion that his orders are unlawful, and thus MUST be disobeyed.
Today, according to the news release, Colonel Lakin said he had informed his superiors that he cannot understand how his oath of office to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution” does not permit him, as a military officer, to pursue proof of eligibility from his commander-in-chief. In addition, he noted that his efforts have been rebuffed with legal evasions.
Given the Obama Administration’s “transparency” initiative, the colonel believes many U.S. citizens are also demanding release of the original birth certificate.
Colonel Lakin’s numerous awards and decorations include the Army Flight Surgeon’s Badge, Combat Medical Badge, the Bronze Service Medal, the Meritorious Service Medal, the Army Commendation Medal with three Oak Leaf Clusters, the Army Achievement Medal with two Oak Leaf Clusters, the National Defense Service Medal with Bronze Service Star, the Armed Forced Expedition Medal, the Army Reserve Component Achievement Medal, the Army Service Ribbon, the Overseas Service Ribbon and the NATO service medal.

Orly, the man has 4 stars on his shoulder, that makes him a Lt. General, not a Lt. Colonel. BIG difference. Just thought you might want to correct your heading. Keep up the good work. Get that usurper soon before he destroys the US of A.

Actually, a 3 star general is a Lt. General. The person in the article is a Lt. Col. For some reason they put the picture of General Casey with the article.

This is real American Hero, where are the rest of them?
He has put everything on the line to prove what he believes in.
This is also what a real patriot looks like.

Actually, the picture is of General Casey, Obama’s joint chiefs of staff…
March 31st, 2010 @ 2:34 pm
Yes, the image is Gen George Casey, not Lt. Col. Lakin…

Is he your client? You should represent him. I bet he has standing.

Everyone who knows retired military should encourage them to support Lt. Col. Lakin.
Retired military can speak with authority, command respect, while at the same time risking less than active military.

I will disobey my orders to deploy because I – and I believe all servicemen and women and the American people – deserve the truth about President Obama’s constitutional eligibility to the office of the presidency and the commander in chief.

This man is a Hero! He is putting his country and the Constitution first. However, he needs to be clear that no matter what the birth certificate shows Obama is not qualified because his father was not an American citizen therefore at best Obama is a citizen which is ineligible to be president. I hope he will also come to this understanding and include it in his demands.
Thanks.

I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is required to get set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet smart so I’m not 100% positive. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks
