Where in Article II Section 1 L Power . . . vested in a President" is the Presidentdelivered the power to fire the head of General Motors directly or indirectly!

Where in the entire Constitution is the President delivered the authority to save onebanking institution and let another fail!

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the authority to take over private orpublic businesses!

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the power or authority to take overprivate automotive companies!

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the power to own shares of stock inprivate companies and to vote those interests!

The President does not have the power to vote the public interest in those corporations.I insist the President send me and other citizens our certificates of ownership of those public orprivate companies. I did not delegate to the President my authority to vote for the directors ofthose companies. Those authorities have not been delivered to the President, the ExecutiveBranch of Government, or his personally chosen lackeys.

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the power to authorize through hisMini Czars the cancellation of automobile franchises and to breach contracts betweenautomobile companies and the franchise dealers without due process!

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the authority to appoint sometwenty-two Mini Czars and their over six hundred employees, without advice and consent ofthe Senatel

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the authority to manipulate the lawsof Bankruptcy! The President has no authority to mistreat Chrysler's Secured Creditors andBond Holders. This is an unconstitutional taking of property. Further, it is common knowledgethat the President is politically indebted to the Automotive Unions.

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the authority to deprive corporateofficers and directors from exercising their personal due process and property rights and theirduties to their shareholders, employees, Secured Creditors, and Bond Holders throughmanipulation, intimidation, threats of dismissal from employment and other strong-arm tactics!

How did the President get the Automotive Union's unsecured and unproven claims tostand in front of Bond Holders, Secured Creditors, and General Creditors without regard to theBankruptcy Laws? Were the Bankruptcy Courts and Judges intimated also?

Article I Section 8 of the Constitution authorizes the establishment of a uniformBankruptcy Law throughout the United States. The Bankruptcy Laws required by theConstitution are not to be manipulated.

The Executive Branch of Govemment is a political institution.The Legislative Branch of Government has become a political institution, regrettably.The Judicial Branch of Govemment, or Courts, is our last defense. The Constitution is

the supreme law of the land. The only recourse of the people is the Constitutional right topetition for the redress of grievances.

The President after three days in Office directed the closing of Guantanamo, in Cuba.This facility is the country club of our penal system. The President now wants eighty milliondollars ($80 Million) to close said facility. We citizens paid for that facility and own it. Inaddition the President paid two hundred million dollars ($200 Million) of my and my fellowcitizens' money to a foreign Government to take, and house, some three detainees. Further,the President in support of a political gesture paid one hundred and eighty dollars ($180) perday, plus food and medical care, for several detainees to be housed in Bermuda, a ForeignTerritory, without advice and consent of the Senate in violation of Article \I Section 2 of theConstitution.

Where in the Constitution is the President delivered the authority to use public funds inthe millions of dollars to be directed and paid to ACORN, a private group of entities presentlyresponding to some fourteen suits in our federal courts for fraud, with no accountability ortransparency of any kind! The use of public funds should be immediately terminated by theCourt and a total financial accounting be ordered. The President does not have Constitutionalauthority to expend public funds for a disguised political use. It is common knowledge thatAcorn is an appendage of the President's political supporters.

Barak Hussein Obama, our President and Chief Executive, is a graduate of HarvardLaw School and claims to have been a Professor of Law. Maybe he should read theConstitution, the supreme law of the land. Our President proposed and had passed a sevenhundred and eighty billion dollar ($780 Billion) stimulus package, which he did not write or

read. Congress passed that bill and was not allowed time, (some eighteen hours), to read andexamine a bill having over 800 pages. This is a misdemeanor at minimum. Barack HusseinObama is President of the United States of America, swom to uphold the Constitution. He isnot a monarch. Our federal revenue is not his personal bank account. It is my and othercitizens' money he is spending, in my mind not to increase employment but to insure politicalsupport.

There are only three ways to alter this Govemment:First, by revolution, which I do not endorse.Second, by assassination which is illegal, and I do not endorse.Third, by petitioning the govemment for the redress of grievances.

F. PRAYER FOR ENJOINING THE PRESIDENTS CONDUCT IN VIOLATION OF THEUNITED STATES CONSTITUTION; FOR THE DISCONTINUANCE OF SAIDINFRINGEMENTS AND UNAUTHORIZED CONDUCT.

This Court has taken an oath to support and defend the Constitution, as has thePresident. The President has violated his oath and this Court should correct those violations.

1. This Court should by order or injunction terminate the appointment of the Presidentof General Motors and the politically appointed board of directors. A new presidentand board of directors should be voted in by the shareholders of the corporationunder the supervision of the Bankruptcy Court.

2. This Court should by order terminate the ownership of shares in General Motors andChrysler by the govemment and automotive unions.

3. Trlis Court Sl10uld by order or injunction reverse all automotive franchisecancellations and let the Bankruptcy Court handle the matter as provided for by theConstitution.

4. This Court should by order or injunction let the Bankruptcy Court reorder thepriorities of the Bond Holders and other Secured Creditors. The President has noauthority to place unsecured and unproven union claims in front of superior claims.

5. This Court should by order or injunction terminate the govemment takeover of anyprivate or public companies and prevent the govemment from owning shares in

those companies including but not limited to automotive, insurance and bankingentities.

6. This Court should by order or injunction terminate all mini Czars and their over sixhundred employees, without pay, immediately.

7. This Court should by order or injunction direct the government not to pay foreigngovernments to house military prisoners. We own Guantanamo; keep the prisonersin that facility. Let the President back off his silly political statement.

8. This Court should terminate all funds to ACORN, a private company. Further,ACORN should be stopped from being involved in the national census effortbecause of their aforementioned federal lawsuits. A total ACORN financialexamination should be ordered to account for the use of public funds.

9. This Court should terminate by order or injunction the President's practice ofintroducing complicated legislation without allowing sufficient time for Congress toread, study, and inquire into such legislation.

In the final analysis, if, in the sound judgment of this Court it is too late to undo some ofthe President's overreaching, the following admonition is urged:

Mr. President, the United States of America is a Republic, all poweris in the people. Government is divided into three equal branches: theexecutive, legislative and judicial, whose powers are specifically deliveredand limited.

You have been elected President, and Chief Executive, do notpresume to be King.
