I want to welcome all of you to our new website.
It took a while to get here because we had to meet two technical requirements:
We started out on the TypePad service and were put on a beta platform which was unreliable and which did not have proper moderation tools - even though their older version, which is what we evaluated did have these tools. So, we had to create our own environment which met the requirements mentione above.
We intentionally did not announce the site or work to build traffic because we wanted to test it out first. We decided that we would not transfer the small number of accounts and the comments from that site because, we didn't trust the mechanism on the TypePad platform to allow us to do this without problems.
Now, that we are here and on Movable Type, we have what we need and we can scale up, move to bigger servers, or whatever we need to do without any loss of user registrations, content, comments, or, as mentioned above, links from other websites and search engines.
For those of you who participated in testing and those of you anxious for this site to get going, thank you for your help and your patience.
It took a while to get here because we had to meet two technical requirements:
- The ability to effectively moderate comments so that we will not fall victim to the troll attacks which are plaguing other websites dealing with the issues covered here
- The ability to scale up the website capacity at a moment's notice as traffic builds without any downtime, loss of links from other websites, search engines rankings, site content, or comments.

You will see more content over the next few days and weeks as we build
our archives to provide as complete a picture as possible of Barack
Obama's constitutional eligibility to serve as President of the United
States.

We plan to tightly moderate this website because we want to provide a complete and unbiased presentation of everything available pertaining to Barack Obama's eligibility to serve.
Please do not think that we want to censor people and prevent them from expressing their opinions, but we will not allow political discussions about Mr. Obama's politics, policies, successes, or failures because those are voter issues and are irrelevant to his eligibility to serve.
One of our goals is to push the issue into the public aswareness and into the media. We will not be taken seriously unless we present complete and unbiased information.
If you believe that Mr. Obama is not constitutionally eligible, then you should welcome the presentation of complete and unbiased information. If we are correct, then we have no reason to shade the facts, present only one side of the story, or attack Mr. Obama over political issues not directly relevent to his eligibility to serve.
