SO SAID THE CONSTITUTIONAL EXPERT, MARK LEVIN
by Dwight Kehoe, ©2013, Managing Editor at TPATH
(Aug. 20, 2013) — Yesterday on his radio show, Mark Levin, the “Great One” as he has been tagged by his good pal and fellow Cromwellian chameleon, Sean Hannity, finally showed himself for the buffoon he is. At a book signing, somewhere in the bowels of Red State New Jersey, the Constitutional expert, author of books and oratorical purveyor of all things conservative (well, almost all things), Mr. Levin found himself being questioned by a real American.
And he did not like it. Not one bit.
In his ire and quite unintentionally, he let out a very interesting piece of information. Its well-known to all of us who have listened to Levin during the past few years that he holds in contempt anyone who would dare to question or confront him. His dislike for Progressives and liberals appears to have taken a back seat to those scoundrels he bitterly and sarcastically calls “Birthers.” We will instruct Mr. Levin as to just what a “birther” is a bit later and we will also teach the great one a bit about our Constitution and the history of its authorship.
Getting back to that interesting slip of the tongue. After months of berating, belittling and banning callers who had the audacity to mention Obama’s ineligibility, this expert let it slip that he has “not really looked into it..
What? The guy we were all supposed to look to for law and constitutionality, the guy who has treated those that looked to him for support on this issue as pests and “one of those,” has not even taken the time to “look into it”? That, to me, says it all. It appears he does not want to know or he is too scared to find out. Either way, you, Mark Levin, this time you have done it for me. I’ll never tune you in again. You, sir, are either a hypocrite or a coward. But most likely both.
So, Mark, since you haven’t really looked into things “Birther,” here is your lesson for today. You won’t need to do research. You won’t have to take the time to read that entire old document, written by old white men. TPATH has done it for you, knowing how busy you are signing make-believe books in your world of pusillanimous conservatism. All you need to do is read these next few paragraphs.
Article II – Section 1, is written thusly:
“No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”
Note if you will, or if you have the time, the term natural born citizen. That term did not appear there from thin air. It was not planted there because the founding fathers wanted to use extra words. That term was put there, Mr. Levin, after much thought and consideration by the authors. Then, following a thorough debate, John Jay (you can look him up, Mark, he’s in the history books, at least for the time being), wrote a letter to George Washington (he’s in the books, too) demanding that the natural born citizen terminology be added to that article. He wrote about the fear of someone having allegiances to a foreign country, by virtue of having a parent who was a citizen of that country, getting control of the military and the government.
A short reading of any one of many legal terms books or ledgers of the time clearly defines what a natural born citizen was and still remains today. Its definition cannot be changed just to make some politicians and talk show hosts comfortable with their treason. If anyone, anyone is not too busy to really look into this, that is, to look at the damage this present usurper of our White House has done, it shall become crystal clear just how brilliant our founding fathers were. They feared Obama and the likes of Obama, generations before he was born.
Then one might say, “But they only meant one parent needed to be an American citizen at the time of his birth.” Even if such a ludicrous statement were proffered in an effort to make life easier for the spineless, and aside from the fact that there is no foundation in history or law which supports such a supposition, put your book-signing pen down for a second and contemplate this. What benefit of security would be derived from allowing one of the parents to have foreign allegiances? That may be too deep for consideration, so try this. If your car broke down in a, shall we say, less than safe neighborhood, packed with personal belongings and valuables and you needed to go for help, what do you suppose would be left of your property and your car if you locked just one of the two doors?
A cynic might suggest, lock two doors or one, your stuff is still gone. That’s another story. But car doors, your house, the neighborhood pharmacy, or your country, common sense says, lock both doors.
Completing your edification of today, Mr. Levin, it’s time we instructed you on just what a “Birther” is. We shall start with what he isn’t. He isn’t a spineless individual who cares more about personal wealth and being part of the elite class of people posing as caretakers of our Republic. In other words, Mark Levin, I have met some Birthers and you, my friend, are no Birther.
The term “Birther” was devised and propagated by the left and is a typical Alinsky tactic of divide, isolate, humiliate and destroy. By labeling those whom you can’t defeat with facts, you can create a form of “political leprosy” and tack it onto the foreheads of those whom you can’t debate and therefore, will never have to debate.
Several years ago, after having “really looked into” the many, many problems associated with Obama, including first his lack of any birth certificate and then the feloniously forged one, and the clearly ineligible characteristics of his so very veiled life, many people who began to speak out were labeled Birther, and I, for one, wore that label with pride and I still do today as I will till I feel felt-covered wood at my elbows.
What is a Birther?
- A Birther is a person who loves this country and will not be intimidated by those who don’t.
- A Birther knows and understands the Constitution and will not compromise or shy away from protecting it.
- A Birther will not be intimidated into silence even if he finds himself isolated or occupying a jail cell.
- A Birther believes in the rule of law and won’t look away from it for personal gain or political standing.
- A Birther will not forsake his principles, for any candidate, left, right or middle.
- A Birther will not shut up, sit down and be quiet so a pompous fraud can make money signing books.
- A Birther has investigated and compiled facts and data which are irrefutable.
- A Birther is a Constitutionalist
- A Birther is a Conservative
- A Birther is an American
It is worth noting that, on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives in 1862, Congressman John Bingham — the “father of the 14th Amendment” — stated, “All from other lands, who by the terms of [congressional] laws and a compliance with their provisions become naturalized, are adopted citizens of the United States; all other persons born within the Republic, of parents owing allegiance to no other sovereignty, are natural born citizens. Gentleman can find no exception to this statement touching natural-born citizens except what is said in the Constitution relating to Indians.”
In 1866 Bingham stated, “Every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen.” Bingham’s definition was never disputed by other Congressmen.
Obama supporters — including attorneys filing briefs with the U.S. Supreme Court — have omitted the words “of parents” when quoting Bingham’s statement, in a shameful and intentional effort to mislead.
I’ll take Bingham’s words over Levin’s.
I can surmise one reason why people are confronting Mark Levin at book signings … he won’t let anyone on his radio show, call ins or guests, to debate him on the “natural born Citizen” legal term of art in the U.S. Constitution. Levin like Beck simply ridicules, tells them to get off his phone, and hangs up on constitutionalists which disagree with his “interpretation” of the term NBC. If the main stream media and talking heads like Levin and Beck would allow constitutional attorneys such as Atty Apuzzo, Atty Herb Titus PhD, or Atty Larry Klayman to be on their shows for an hour or so of fair debate people would not have to confront him in public. Levin also says he has not studied the issue. He was personally presented with a portfolio of information about the NBC issue including the case Minor v Happersett at the CPAC convention in Washington DC two years ago by Capt Pamela Barnett. He told her he hadn’t heard of that case or studied it but he would look at it and the material Pamela gave to him. I was there and witnessed the presentment. I similarly gave copies of the same portfolio to former Atty General Ed Meese and also to Phyllis Schafly. What did Levin and the others do with the material … throw it in a waste can. They certainly have access to vast amounts of material if they wish to study the issue. No, imo, these people are being disingenuous and pleading ignorance as a way of ducking the issue. All we constitutionalists want is a fair and open debate on the NBC issue in all the major media with experts on both sides of the issue allowed to make their case without being shouted down, hung up on, or called names and using Saul Alinsky type ridicule to try and silence people on this issue. But they won’t give us the platform in the major media because they know we are correct. We have the facts and truth on our side as to the founders’ and framers’ original intent as to the purpose and meaning of why the NBC clause was put into the Constitution. Both political parties want to ignore the true meaning of the NBC clause in the Constitution rather than properly amend the Constitution because they have not been able to do that to date despite trying several times over the last 10-20 years to redefine it or amend it out. The NBC clause is a national security clause requiring the President to have sole allegiance to the USA at birth. Dual Citizens need not apply. People like Cruz, Obama, Jindal, and Rubio were dual Citizens at birth. They are NOT constitutionally eligible to be President!

Great article and comments. I read the other article first and left a comment there. Wish I could copy this.
Thank you.
Levin,See a Doctor if you are sick.
A “Natural-Born Citizen” is a 100% American Citizen who meets BOTH:
1.Jus Soli- [“Of the Soil” of the U.S.] Having been born IN the U.S.
AND
2.100% Jus Sanquinis [“of the Blood” of American Citizens]. Having been born of a Mother and Father who were BOTH Americans at the time of birth.
The absence of either part of this equation disqualifies the Candidate. One + Zero does not equal Two.
This is correct! This was how it was always taught in US High School Social Studies classes.
A Birther is one that not only respects the rule of law as expressed in Clause five of Section 1 of the Executive Articles of the COTUS, but also Honors the words, meaning and intent of the Fifth Commandment of the Ten Laws handed to Moses.
Were I born of a father who was respected by God and of a mother honored by God the chances are good I would grow to follow the Laws of God, having been taught their words, meanings and intents;
Were I born of a father who supported, protected and defended the Constitution and of a mother who did the same chances are I would follow in their example in supporting, protecting and defending the Constitution having been taught its words, meanings and intents;
We can not deny the history of the world and ignore what has happened to civilizations and nations that allowed themselves to be ruled by foreigners…..
…..we are being subjected to “colonization” in reverse, being diminished to 3rd world status ……..
Bravo! We need another EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION from Anti Constitutional Tyranny!
