OK State Rep Mike Ritze to Persuade Sen. Inhofe to Challenge Obama

Posted on 12/24/2008 by

Oklahoma State Representative Mike Ritze — the same State Representative who brought forward a bill to have the State validate candidate eligibility — is now seeking to persuade OK Senator James Inhofe to challenge the Electoral College vote certification in Congress.

According to InvestigatingObama:

Related yesterday evening by FReeper, BonRad, below is an email sent by Plains Radio, early Tuesday morning (emphasis by I.O.): …

Last night, Plains Radio made history. We had for the first time one of them to join us. Them? That would be Rep. Mike Ritze of the Oklahoma State house. Dr. Mike will now take our cause to the Senators and Congressman from Oklahoma. He will try and persuade Senator Inhofe of Oklahoma to stand up and challenge Obama Election. …

The email goes on to say that on Friday, 12/26, they are scheduled to interview Obama outistcorrespondent for Pravda’s Web publication (yes, Pravda). The only journalist that I.O. knows of who is reporting about Obama’s ineligibility is Mark S. McGrew and it turns out McGrew was interviewed by Ed Hale of Plains Radio on Monday, 12/22, as well. Also, Stephen Pidgeon, attorney for Obama challengers in Washington state.

I see this as a reasonable path to take. After all, it would be significantly harder to get at least 1 US Senator to challenge the Electoral College vote certification than it would be a Representative (for the reason that Senators are significantly more powerful than any one Representative; they represent an entire State of voters as opposed to merely a district). Also, Sen. Inhofe has done a great job of sticking up for common-sense initiatives for the great State of Oklahoma.

Update: InvestigatingObama continues reporting:

In the Monday interview described [above], Dr. Mike Ritze, Oklahoma State Representative states that he is contacting OK Senators James Inhofe (R) and Tom Coburn (R), asking that they challenge the congressional certification of Barack Obama’s election, based upon his not being a natural born Citizen according to the actual definition of that criterion. Rep. Ritze also describes his proposed state legislation to reform election law in that state, including the constitutional definition of natural born Citizen. Alabama’s U.S. Senator, Jeff Sessions was also mentioned.

A current listing of eligibility lawsuits can be found here.

    Could it be that the SCOTUS wants to duck this issue and let it be handled by the legislative branch?

    If Sen. Inhofe has the balls to do this the folks in OK may nominate him for sainthood.

    OK reports one of the highest positive votes on the AOL Poll. Maybe that statistic could help persuade the Senator to stand up for he Constitution.

    Maybe we could look thru that poll and identify other states that registered 60% and higher positive response and approach them as well…

    God bless REP RITZE, Thats a great X-MAS present. At least he is concerned, and values our CONSTITUTION. It is so simple for OBAMA just to show his real BIRTH CERTIFICATE. ALL of this would then be put to rest. We must not change our CONSTITUTION that our forefathers worked so hard to protect us, just to satisfy some individuals.

    Thank you for reporting this story. You did a excellent job with the facts and I agree with you. This is the 1st of many doors that will now be opened. Also we are in the process of obtaining all of Obama’s mother records in Hawaii. As soon as we get those records, which we hope that are included, Marriage of Durham and Obama Sr, their divorce paper and also Lolo Serato and Duham marriage and divorce papers and Obama adoption paper. As soon as we get this information we will put it out to the public. Thanks for all your help Ed Hale, Plains Radio Network.

    OBAMA, HALF-SISTER & HAWAII OFFICIALS FALSIFY MADELYN DUNHAM DEATH RECORDS!

    On October 21, 2008 Barack Obama announced that he would be suspending his campaign after a rally in Indianapolis on Thursday morning, October 23, 2008 to fly to Hawaii to visit with his “gravely ill grandmother.” Barack Obama further stated that Madelyn L. Dunham had recently been hospitalized and was back at home after suffering a broken hip. Obama made it clear on October 22, 2008 that there “will be absolutely no video or photo ops during my upcoming visit with my ailing grandmother,” and “I do not expect my grandmother to make it to election day.”

    On Friday October 24, 2008 Michelle Obama during a campaign rally for her husband claimed that “I spoke with tutu last night and she is strong and in good health.”

    On Friday October 24, 2008 I placed two calls to the home of Madelyn Dunham, in one of those calls I spoke with Obama half-sister Maya Ng http://larrysinclair-0926.blogspot.com/2008/10/i-just-spoke-with-senator-obamas-sister.html where Maya claimed Mrs. Dunham could not talk.

    On November 3, 2008 both the news media and Barack Obama announced that Madelyn L. Dunham had passed away on that date. Mrs. Dunham was to have celebrated her 89th birthday on the Sunday following Barack Obama’s visit, yet no one, not even Barack Obama stopped to wish his “gravely ill” grandmother a Happy Birthday.

    After first announcing that Madelyn Dunham had passed away in her sleep on November 3, 2008 (conveniently the day before election day for the sympathy vote) it was reported by Hawaii officials and then by Obama half-sister Maya Ng that Mrs. Dunham had in fact passed away on November 2, 2008. Both reports it turns out are false and it has been reported that Maya Ng and Hawaii officials knowingly and intentionally falsified death records of Madelyn L. Dunham who had actually died prior to Barack Obama arriving on Thursday October 23, 2008 for his claimed visit.

    According to sources employed in the coroner’s office Madelyn Dunham died on October 21, 2008 and was cremated on Friday October 24, 2008. It is further claimed that the death records of Madelyn L Dunham were falsified at the direct and specific request of Barack Obama and Maya Ng.

    I have forwarded a letter to the Hawaii Attorney Generals office requesting and investigation and forwarded the information received regarding the falsifying of the death and cremation records of Madelyn L Dunham. If this information is factual Barack Obama has demonstrated his total disregard for any life, including the life of the woman who made it possible for him to be a spoiled, drug using, closet bi/gay fraud. Furthermore the fact that Michelle Obama knew and assisted in concealing this fraud along with the US Secret Service assigned to protect Barack Obama makes them conspirators to this crime.

    Today Barack Obama participated in the scattering of the ashes of Madelyn L Dunham who he used and exploited.

    I have one thing to say Barack, not everyone is willing to cover for your lies and crimes. Now lets see if the Hawaii Attorney General is willing to do their job or if that office is going to simply look the other way.

    Why is it so hard to find a Representative or a Senator to stand up on the issue of “Obama’s” Natural Born Citizen status? They all took an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution. They all should stand up! What part of the oath do they not understand? One American citizen, plus one British father, equals one British born baby. Not a Natural Born Citizen of the United States of America as the Constitution demands. All,stand up together, and do your duty or resign from office. There are no excuses on this issue ,it is as clear as it gets. British citizens are not eligible to be President of the United States of America. Neither are Indonesian citizens.

    Finally, a hero. These officials who finally stand up to the establishment and the SCOTUS and the lower courts who have been negligent in doing their jobs will be remembered in our history books as the brave ones.

    Yeah,

    The day after the election my husband and I sent a letter to Senator Inhoff pleading our case to him, since he was one of the few who did not vote for the bail out and since we live in Ok and he is a great Senator.

    He eventually did write back to us letting us know that he is aware of the natural born and BC issue and that he was very disturbed by this and would look into it.

    We moved to Broken Arrow almost 3 yrs ago from NJ to escape the political corruption and have discovered that NOT all politicians are dirty evil dirtbags–Jim Inhoff is an honest Senator that believes in govt of the people, for the people and by the people.

    So this is great news and hopefully he will jump in feet first and take the reins and lead the way to remove this fraud from ever taking public office again.

  13. On December 26th, 2008 at 3:05 pm , Arlen said...

    That is encouraging, glsmarton.

    We should all be contacting our members of Congress right now, especially U.S. Senators to demand that they uphold their consitutional duty on Obama’s glaringly obvious ineligibility to be president — and to see to it that all of our government does the same, for all candidates, from NOW onward — including the Supreme Court.

    Otherwise, it ceases to be misfeasance and becomes impeachable malfeasance and a conspiracy of criminal fraud.

    Please mention that.

    The Senate won’t help us. When they passed Senate Resolution 511, they knew that McCain AND Obama did not meet the eligibility requirements to hold the office of the president. Neither party was willing to give up their candidate. They chose personal political ambition and party over our country and our Constitution. Do you think they will admit to that? The resolution passed unanimously in the Senate, both demos and republicans voted. The law firm that did the research cited 1790 Act, they did not bother to state that it was repealed in 1795 and what was changed was the term “natural born citizen” to
    “US Citizen.” They cited Wong Kim Ark and misstated this case as the US Supreme Court never said he was a “natural born Citizen, they said he was a US Citizen. The difference between US Citizen and natural born citizen was distinguished in the Minor case and it states, “It is sufficient, for everything we have now to consider, that all children, born of citizen parents within the jurisdiction, are themselves citizens.’ Minor v. Happersett (1874) 21 Wall. 162, 166-168.” Most of the Senators are lawyers. They knew all this they made a choice. They are not going to help and challenge the election.
    Even if we can find one Senator or Congress person to issue a challenge, they won’t be supported by the others. This has been made abundently clear by the responses from the Congressmen and Senators that have been contacted.

    I hope and pray that this State bill will pass and move on to become a Senate Resolution. This is a legitimate and common sense bill that will do well for the State of Oklahoma as well as the remainding 49 States and DC. Thank You Congressman Ritze for your efforts of fairness and no nonsence.

    About a week ago I wrote Sen. Lindsey Graham of SC regarding this issue. Was hoping since he is a friend of McCain’s he would object. Haven’t heard anything back, don’t even know if he’s gotten his mail. I also called E. Dole’s office, and surprise surprise! Recording states her office in now closed, and message refers callers to other senator in NC. Thought she was still getting paid for a couple of more weeks. Wonder if she will even show up for vote on the 8th.

    Looks like Obots got to Sen. Graham of SC.

    “President-elect Obama was born on August 4, 1961, in the State of Hawaii two years after it became a state in 1959. Every child born in the United States is a natural-born United States citizen except for the children of Diplomats. As such, President-elect Obama acquired United States citizenship automatically at birth. Therefore, after turning 35 years of age. President-elect Obama was eligible to run for President of the United States.”

    I have contacted Senator Inhofe’s office to urge him to stand up and contest Obama’s certification for president until his Natural Born Citizenship is determined. I think He’s man enough to do it but is probably considering spending his political capital. Hoping he will come down on the side of the Constitution.

    Who is it that pulls the strings of these Senators,and Representatives. This Constitutional crisis is not a politics as usual issue. I wonder if they are even getting the true facts when it comes to “Obama” and his lack of citizenship.These Congressmen have a duty to educate themselves on this Constitutional issue and to do their duty and protect the Constitution from all enemies, foreign, and domestic.

    If anyone has the balls in our Goverment to stand up for the Constitution of The United States of America. And Protest for Obama to Produce his birth Certificate! That is the Man or Woman I want for PRESIDENT ( as long as the meet the constitutional qualifications).

    From a letter which now appears on Citizenwells site, Inhofe is in the tank, making some of the same or similar misstatements of facts that the other Senators are making

    Submit Petition for Redress of Grievance that Obama is ineligible to be President.

    There is growing evidence that Bary Soetoro/aka Barack Hussein Obama II is not constitutionally qualified to become President.

    US Electoral College Law provides explicit provision to for a Senator and Representative to jointly raise objections when Congress meets January 8th, 2009 to open and record electoral votes.
    See 3 U.S.C. Ch. 1, §15, §17, §19 (a) (1), and §19 (c) (1) (Search for “objection”)

    If Obama is formally “elected”, then every member of Congress has the high privilege to raise a “Point of Order” to invalidate that election as breaching the Constitution for failing to qualify as President.

    Please petition your Representative and Senators to raise objection over Obama’s qualifications.
    While phone calls and emailed petitions seek to persuade, the right to “petition for redress of grievances” is a special right preserved under the First Amendment that has constitutional force over any breach of the Constitution (or laws.) A formal Petition for Redress of Grievances requires a “Prayer” (request) for “redress” of a “grievance” and a signature. If not delivered personally, it must be signed before a notary and sent via US Post.

    Please sign, notarize and send the following to your Representative & Senators to receive by January 7th, or 19th, 2009, for legal effect. Otherwise email to persuade, and forward to friends and colleagues to do the same.

    ————————————————————
    Re: Petition for Point of order: Barack H. Obama II is not qualified to become president.
    Grievance: Barry Soetoro/a.k.a. Barack Hussein Obama II is not qualified to become president, having had primary allegiances to other nations, and not providing unambiguous evidence he is a “natural born Citizen” without other allegiance, to satisfy the Constitution Article 2 Sect. 1.
    Prayer: By your oath to uphold the Constitution, your privilege to raise a Point of Order, by the 10th Amendment powers retained by We the People, and by the right of petition for redress of grievances, I pray that you cosign/raise an Objection/Point of Order in Congress on January 8th 2009, with a member of the other House, on the reading of each State’s electoral certificates/of the total vote for Barack Hussein Obama II, per 3 U.S.C. Ch. 1, §15, §17, §19(a) (1), and §19 (c) (1), namely:
    “We/I Object/raise a Point of Order that Mr. Barack Hussein Obama II, is not qualified to become president per the Constitution Article Two, §1, having “Foreign Allegiances” by birth and adoption, by renouncing US citizenship, and by failing to provide unambiguous evidence that he is “a natural born Citizen” without other allegiance, election of a President who does qualify having precedence over other business of this House per Amend. 20 §3 and 3 USC 1. In particular:
    1 Mr. Obama having had conflicting “Foreign Allegiance”(s) cannot become Commander in Chief having sole allegiance to the USA, and thus cannot qualify as “a natural born Citizen”.
    1.1 Barry Soetoro, a.k.a. Barak Obama, has first allegiance to Indonesia, having Indonesian citizenship with renunciation of US citizenship, by adoption/legal acknowledgment by Lolo Soetoro Mangunharjo, a citizen of Indonesia, per Constitution of Indonesia, Law No. 62 of 1958, Art. 2 (1), as required to enroll in Indonesian schools, per school records and travel to Pakistan in 1981; and
    1.2 Mr. Obama had first allegiance to the British Crown and to Kenya, being born a citizen of Kenya through his Kenyan birth father Barack Obama, Sr., per Chapter VI. Sections 87 and 97 of the Constitution of Kenya; and being a bipatride under the U.K. Nationality Act of 1948.
    2. Mr. Obama failed to produce unambiguous evidence that he is a “natural born Citizen” born to US citizens “in the allegiance of the United States” and he retained that exclusive allegiance.
    2.1 Mr. Obama has failed to exhibit unambiguous original evidence that A) he was born to two US citizens “in the allegiance of the United States”, while meeting statutory citizenship requirements, and that B) he retained exclusive allegiance to the United States, including his original vault-version birth certificate and all other legal birth certificate versions and passports; and
    2.2 Mr. Obama’s Kenyan paternal step grandmother Sarah Hussein Obama states that she was present at his birth in (Mombosa) Kenya, per Affidavits of Bishop Ron McRae and of Rev. Kweli Shuhubia in Philip J. Berg v. Barack Hussein Obama et al. Fed. Cir. D.PA. Civil No: 08-cv-04083.”
