Excerpt:
"Jerome Corsi, author of the best-selling “Where’s the Birth Certificate? The Case That Barack Obama is Not Eligible to be President,” will be a guest tomorrow on former New York Gov. David Paterson’s WOR New York City radio program to talk about the importance of the Constitution.
The invitation to Corsi came after Paterson stirred up a hornet’s nest by suggesting Barack Obama could be ineligible for the Oval Office and “got away” with it.
Paterson also compared Obama’s actions to those of President Richard Nixon, which he likened to treason.
On his show, he was asserting, along with NBC Chief White House Correspondent Chuck Todd, that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney should have distanced himself more from developer Donald Trump and his doubts about Obama’s eligibility.
“Even if he wasn’t born in the United States, at this point, it’s kind of like he got away with it,” Paterson said.
“A lot of people get away with a lot of things.”
Paterson compared Obama’s actions to those of President Nixon.
“We learned later that Nixon spied on Johnson’s Paris peace talks,” Paterson said. “That was actually an act of … uh … I mean it was against the interests of the U.S. government. You’ve got to say that before you would say it’s treason. But he got away with it. Decided it wasn’t a good thing to bring up at that particular time. Not only did he get away with it, he won the election.”
Corsi told WND he had agreed to be on the Paterson show to discuss the eligibility issue, which he defined succinctly as being the Constitution itself.
“The threshold question [over the Obama issue] is whether or not you’re eligible,” Corsi told WND. “The rest is irrelevant.”
The Paterson comments have been posted online by WOR.
The focal point of the dispute over Obama’s tenure in the White House has been whether he meets the Constitution’s requirement of being a “natural born citizen.” The term is not defined in the Constitution but most likely was considered by those who wrote it to mean the offspring of two U.S. citizens.
According to that interpretation, Obama is not eligible to be president, because his father, Barack Obama Sr., never was a citizen of the United States. The questions revolve around his birth location, because he has claimed his birth in Hawaii makes him a natural-born citizen.
Obama repeatedly has refused to release a long list of documents that likely would shed like on the controversy, which heated up two weeks ago when Breitbart.com released a 1990s publicity brochure from a publishing house advertising Obama as an author.
The bio plainly stated that Obama was born in Kenya."
