BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- A Luverne man challenging President Obama's inclusion on Alabama election ballots asked a black judge to step down from the case due to racial bias and lack of Constitutional knowledge, while lawyers for the state Democratic Party asked the judge to dismiss the case.
The suit filed by Harold Sorenson Monday in Jefferson County Circuit Court is the second such case to come before Circuit Judge Helen Shores Lee. On the same day she dismissed a suit filed by Birmingham resident Albert E. Hendershot also seeking an injunction to keep Obama's name off Democratic ballots in the March 13 primary.
Acting as his own lawyer, Sorenson wrote his recusal motion should be granted "due to racial bias, lack of judicial discretion as well as lack of knowledge of the U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 1, Clause 5."
Sorenson also filed suit after the 2008 presidential election challenging both Obama's and Sen. John McCain's citizenship and qualification to be included on state ballots. A Montgomery County judge dismissed that suit in 2009, court records show.

(4,788 posts)If Mittens gets the GOP nod, perhaps Mr. Sorenson will file suit and challenge his citizenship as well. Mr. Sorenson seems to be easily offended no matter who is running. Or perhaps I should quote Mr. Bugs Bunny: "What a maroon."
