MAKES UP:
Constitutional Quotes During State Of The Union (SOTU) Address
Consider this:
1. President Barack Obama, former editor of the Harvard Law Review, is
no longer a "lawyer" . He surrendered his license back in 2008 in order
to escape charges he lied on his bar application. NOTE: Click on
"lawyer" to see the actual documents.
2. Michelle Obama "voluntarily surrendered" her law license in 1993.
3. So, we have the first black President and First Lady - who don't
actually have licenses to practice law. Facts.

rvard-law-review-has-no-law-license/
4. A senior lecturer is one thing.. A fully ranked law professor is
another. Barack Obama was NOT a Constitutional Law professor at the
University of Chicago .
5. The University of Chicago released a statement in March, 2008 saying Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) "served as a professor" in the law school-but
that is a title Obama, who taught courses there part-time, never held, a
spokesman for the school confirmed in 2008.
6. "He did not hold the title of professor of law," said Marsha Ferziger
Nagorsky, an Assistant Dean for Communications and Lecturer in Law at the
University of Chicago School of Law.

7. The former Constitutional senior lecturer cited the US
Constitution the other night during his State of the Union Address.
Unfortunately, the quote he cited was from the Declaration of
Independence . not the Constitution.
8. The B-Cast posted the video:

ration-of-independence/
9. Free Republic: In the State of the Union Address, President Obama
said: "We find unity in our incredible diversity, drawing on the promise
enshrined in our Constitution: the notion that we are all created equal..
10. Um, wrong citing, wrong founding document there Champ, I mean Mr.
President. By the way, the promises are not a notion, our founders named
them unalienable rights. The document is our Declaration of Independence
and it reads:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,
that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
11. And this is the same guy who lectured the Supreme Court moments later
in the same speech???
When you are a phony it's hard to keep facts straight.
Pres. Barack Obama - Editor of the Harvard Law Review- Has No Law
License???

I saw a note slide across the #TCOT feed on Twitter last night that
mentioned Michelle Obama had no law license. This struck me as odd, since
(a) she went to school to be a lawyer, and (b) she just recently held a
position with the University of Chicago Hospitals as legal counsel - and> that's a pretty hard job to qualify for without a law license.
But being a licensed professional myself, I knew that every state not> only requires licenses, they make it possible to check online the status
of any licensed professional. So I did, and here's the results from the
ARDC Website:
She "voluntarily surrendered" her license in 1993. Let me explain what
that means. A "Voluntary Surrender" is not something where you decide
"Gee, a license is not really something I need anymore, is it?" and
forget to renew your license. No, a "Voluntary Surrender" is something
you do when you've been accused of something, and you 'voluntarily
surrender" you license five seconds before the state suspends you.
Here's an illustration: I'm a nurse. At various times in my 28 years of
nursing I've done other things when I got burned out; most notably a few
years as a limousine driver; even an Amway salesman at one point. I
always, always renewed my nursing license - simply because it's easier to
send the state $49.00 a month than to pay the $200, take a test, wait six
weeks, etc., etc. . . I've worked (recently) in a Nursing Home where
there was an 88 year old lawyer and a 95 year old physician. Both of
them still had current licenses as well. They would never DREAM of
letting their licenses lapse. I happen to know there is currently in the
Indiana State Prison in Michigan City Indiana an inmate who is a licensed
physician, convicted of murder when he chased the two burglars who
entered his home and terrorized his family into the street and killed
them. (And I can't say I blame him for that, either.) This physician
still has an active medical license and still sees patients, writes
prescriptions, etc all from inside the prison.
And he renews his medical license every two years, too.
I tried looking up why she would "Voluntarily surrender" her license, but
Illinois does not have its 1993 records online.
But when I searched for "Obama", I found this:
"Voluntarily retired" - what does that mean? Bill Clinton hung onto his
law license until he was convicted of making a false statement in the
Lewinsky case and had to "Voluntarily Surrender" his license too.
This is the former editor of the Harvard Law Review who doesn't seem to
give a crap about his law license.
Something else odd; while the Search feature brings up the names, any
searches for the Disciplinary actions ends quickly.
As in, Too Quickly. Less than a half-second quickly on a Search Engine
that can take five seconds to Search for anything.
As in, "there's a block on that information" kind of thing.
So we have the first Lawyer President and First Lady -who don't actually
have licenses to practice law.
There's more to this story, I'm sure. I'll let you know when I find it
