Former Obama Eligibility Challenger: “Undivided Political Allegiance at Birth” a Presidential Requirement

by Sharon Rondeau

From “We the Sheeple” by Lexi Fehr (Tracy Fair)

(Jul. 23, 2026) — On July 3, former Obama eligibility litigant Tracy Fair, writing as Lexi Fehr, announced she published a book addressing what she says are “the immense procedural hurdles citizens face when seeking judicial review of constitutional questions.”

The work, titled “We The Sheeple: How the Media, Congress, and the Courts Undermined Article II — and Redefined Presidential Eligibility,” arose from her 2012 lawsuit against the Maryland Board of Elections in which she maintained Barack Hussein Obama did not meet the U.S. Constitution’s Article II, Section 1, clause 5 “natural born Citizen” requirement and was therefore ineligible to serve as president of the United States.

Having met with no success within the Maryland court system, Fair eventually took her case to the U.S. Supreme Court.

In a January 20, 2015 article, The Post & Email reported, in part:

Maryland citizen and registered voter Tracy Fair plans to file an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court in a case which began nearly three years ago claiming that Barack Hussein Obama is not eligible to serve as president of the United States.

…Obama’s eligibility has been questioned since MSNBC commentator Chris Matthews stated in December 2007 that Obama was “born in Indonesia” and other printed reports related that Obama was born in Kenya.  In 1991, Obama’s literary agent said in his official biography that he was “born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii.”

CDR Charles F. Kerchner, Jr. (Ret), whose name appears in the book’s Acknowledgements released by Fair in her announcement, immediately reiterated the news while describing Fair as “another true Patriot who battled over 16 years to support, defend, protect, and enforce the true original intent, understanding, meaning, and purpose of the Presidential Eligibility Clause in Article II Section 1 Clause 5.”

The book’s Amazon introduction poses the question, “What if one of the Constitution’s most important safeguards has been quietly ignored, not through open defiance, but through misunderstanding, neglect, and the slow erosion of historical memory?” and offers as background:

For more than eighteen years, independent researcher Tracy Fair (writing under the pen name Lexi Fehr) has investigated the historical, legal, and constitutional foundations of presidential eligibility and the true meaning of the Constitution’s “natural-born Citizen” requirement. We the Sheeple takes readers back to the intellectual roots of the American Republic, exploring how the Founding Fathers relied on Emmerich de Vattel’s The Law of Nations to define citizenship, domicile, and political allegiance. Fehr argues that true constitutional citizenship requires an undivided political allegiance at birth, rather than mere physical presence or territorial geography.

In her email Fair declared:

I’M AN AUTHOR!!! And you all are acknowledged in my book!

It has been years, decades since we were all going after Obama’s ineligibility and I’m wondering how all of you are dealing with the latest SCOTUS decision regarding birthright citizenship. I myself am disgusted!

I started writing We the Sheeple a long time ago, but never finished it. When I heard the SCOTUS would be hearing arguments on the issue, I got back into writing it. I found a publisher who was willing to help get it out quickly before the SCOTUS decision… 

Anyways, my book was released on the 22nd of June and I went to DC several times trying to get it to anyone of authority. I tried to get into the 250 Fair, but they would not let me with any books…I mailed a copy to the SCOTUS and it was delivered…not sure who has it but it was addressed to Justice Thomas and WAS delivered…another book will be delivered to Solicitor General John Sauer any day now…he argued the [birthright citizenship] case in court…

Anyways, you are all mentioned in the Acknowledgements and I just wanted to let you know!!!

As for the reason she wrote the book, Fair told this writer, “I really didn’t have a choice. When I heard Trump was going to court, that’s when I started.”

Approximately two weeks later, P&E reader Jonathan David Mooers told The Post & Email:

I read the whole book pronto, and it gave me comfort in her slow, deliberate, methodical, non-emotional writing style…as she marches to the end conclusion that Obama is not a Vatell [sic, Emmerich de Vatell] nbC nor a Founding Father nbC, and that from the Founding Fathers well into the 1800s, judges and Justices referred to Vatell/law of nature/law of nations often in USA jurisprudence.

So, this 18-years-in-the-making-book puts to rest the lie(s) that Vatell had no influence on the Founding Fathers, or Vatell’s French language book was not well-distributed, or Vatell’s book did not come out until after the US Constitution was drafted, etc.

Great public service herein, Tracy Fair.

  1. Needless to say, Tracy Fair has DONE HER PART, and more, for our country. I hope those in high places (or should I say in black robes lasting a lifetime?) will find a way to do theirs. What follows and is told in the below websites is where things in America started going downhill. It began in earnest after WWll in 1947 with the National Security Act containing the official founding of the CIA and has gotten progressively worse over the years with the worst of all being the unconstitutional election and swearing in as “president” of Barack Hussein Obama in 2008-09. He wanted to “transform” America, and indeed he was successful in doing so. This is where I always say, JUST LOOK AROUND YOU.

      This, by the way, is a MUST READ! Again, I apologize for my mistake and trust that I now have a working link for everyone. Tom Arnold.

    John Bingham, the primary framer of the 14th Amendment, understood “natural born Citizen” to mean a person born in the United States to parents not owing any allegiance to a foreign Sovereign or power. To wit:

    “All from other lands, who, by the terms of your laws and in 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. Gentlemen can find no exception to this statement touching natural born citizen except what is said in the Constitution in relation to [Native American] Indians”. — John Bingham, Congressional Globe, 1862

    “I find no fault with the introductory clause, which is simply declaratory of what is written in the Constitution, that 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”. — John Bingham, Congressional Globe 1886

    And Wong Kim Ark cited, without questioning, the majority opinion of Minor v. Hapersett that a natural born citizen is a person born in the United States to parents both of whom are citizens of the United States.

    President Andrew Johnson sent a message to Congress announcing that the 14th Amendment had been sent to the states for ratification. Johnson voiced his displeasure with the amendment by stating that his actions should “be considered as purely ministerial, and in no sense whatever committing the Executive to an approval or a recommendation of the amendment to the State legislatures or to the people.”

    Secretary of State William Seward issued a proclamation certifying the ratification of the 14th Amendment by the states.

  4. “Great public service…” is very true. A well-researched and well-written book. If our education system improves, the book needs to be in our classrooms and civics courses. Many people need to be held accountable. The Truth will out, and Tracy Fair did great work to keep the wheels of justice turning.

  5. This is an important contribution to the continuing distinction between Fourteenth Amendment birthright citizenship and Article II’s separate “natural born Citizen” requirement.
    Tracy Fair’s emphasis on undivided political allegiance at birth raises the precise constitutional question that courts repeatedly avoided during the Obama eligibility litigation and that was not squarely resolved in the recent birthright-citizenship litigation.
    It is also significant that copies of her work were reportedly sent to both the Supreme Court and Solicitor General John Sauer. That adds to the developing record that SCOTUS and OSG were placed on notice that any modern reconsideration of citizenship at birth carries unavoidable implications for presidential eligibility, judicial appointments, allegiance, domicile, and the constitutional authority exercised by prior administrations.
    The central question remains:
    Does every person who is a citizen at birth automatically qualify as an Article II natural born Citizen—or did the Framers impose a narrower allegiance-based qualification for the offices of President and Vice President?
    That question deserves direct briefing, a complete historical record, and an actual judicial answer—not another procedural dismissal.

    As a professional psychiatrist, it is my opinion that ‘derangement’ can occur at anyplace, anytime.

    It is unfortunate indeed that some give credence to others who should, in all honesty, be given no voice whatsoever due to ‘derangement’ alarms going off all over the place.

    Those who believe Barry Soetoro, aka Obama, was eligible to be lawfully elected as DOG CATCHER in Cook Country, Illinois, can never accept facts as truth and will, therefore, be regulated
    as those who ‘perpetually and forevermore ‘missed the boat.’

    The word “stupid” comes to play.

    I say we’re wasting our time trying to convince idiots of anything.

    Let’s face the facts and send the ‘Cheap Suit’ – that be Obama – down to GITMO to spend the rest of his worthless life.

  7. There would never have been a “President” Barack Hussein Obama were it not for our very own CIA, US Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, Nancy Pelosi and others in the Democrat Party with a few complicit Republicans, the Deep State, and others FROM WITHIN and associated with our very own government.
    It certainly looks like a dangerous precedent was set and continues to be the “law of the land” today. Just look around you to see what has become of our American way of life and our rather bleak prospects for the future.
    I am reminded, though, that it is WE THE PEOPLE who have been named and franchised by our Founding Fathers to have the oversight and final word in this, our Democracy and Constitutional Republic. So, WHAT HAPPENED? That, my friends, is a rhetorical question with some of the sick answers contained or implied in the foregoing material. WHAT CAN WE DO NOW OR IS IT TOO LATE?

    1. Jonathan David Mooers

      Good to see you back in the nbC-fray, Tom.

      “I am reminded, though, that it is WE THE PEOPLE who have been named and franchised by our Founding Fathers to have the oversight and final word in this, “- Tom Arnold

      You are correct (again) that it will be We the People [on Main Street USA] that will be ultimately responsible for America’s state of affairs, not our three rogue branches of US Government:

      LEGISLATIVE BRANCH COUP: “Insider Traitor” US House Speaker Nancy D-Alesandro-Pelosi
      EXECUTIVE BRANCH COUP: Bidens/Clintons/Obamas
      JUDICIAL BRANCH COUP: “Thief Justice” John Glover “Grovel” Roberts, Jr.

      It will be We the 77,000,000 Trump voter-supporting People who will be ultimately responsible for enforcing the original evidentiary history-reality meaning of “natural born Citizen” (nbC) and 14th Amendment for only native-domiciled-Negro-slavery-to-full-US-citizenship.

      It has always been We the Rondeau, Taitz, Kerchner, Daniels, Volin, Laity, Lakin, Cashill, Arpaio, Zullo, Apuzzo, Tracy Fair, Mooers, et many al People on Main Street USA who have defended the Vatell-Founding-Fathers’ nbC and original 14th Amendment all along since DNC-nbC-COUP DAY 08-28-08:

       >>>

      We the Birther People must directly EDUCATE, EDUCATE, EDUCATE We the Main Street People by going around our rogue US Government, attorneys and their criminal media-mafia accomplices to convince them:

      >The nbC and 14th Amendment Coupsters are midterm candidates for the gallows in 2026
      >Trust your own NATURAL REALITY (sight-sound-smell-taste-touch) and ignore others’ contemporary narrative reality (lies) on nbC and 14th Amendment discussions
      >Fully accept evidentiary HISTORY REALITY that shows just how previous We the People originally interpreted nbC from 1824 to 08-28-08 via their selection and election of US Presidents and VP’s, and by their original actions from 1868 to 1898 to interpret and enforce the 14th Amendment without visiting foreigners’ “anchor baby chain migration birthright citizenship”
      >Demand that there be no further national elections in USA until The SAVE Act is enacted and enforced to ensure non-US-citizens are denied voting-access in US elections
