Was Obama an Indonesian citizen? [Evidence raises concerns over presidential qualification]
WND ^ | May 08, 2011 | Aaron Klein

Posted on 05/09/2011 8:35:43 PM PDT by RobinMasters

Evidence continues to mount that President Obama was adopted by his Indonesian stepfather, Lolo Soetoro, raising concerns over his presidential eligibility.

Obama's American mother, Ann Dunham, separated from her first husband, Barack Obama Sr., in 1963 when the president was 2 years old. Dunham and Obama Sr. are reported to have later divorced.

In Hawaii, Dunham married Lolo Soetoro, an Indonesian, in 1965 and moved to Indonesia in October 1967.

Divorce documents filed in Hawaii on Aug. 20, 1980, refer to Obama as the "child" of both Soetoro and Dunham, indicating a possible adoption in the U.S.

Jerome Corsi’s new book, "Where’s the Birth Certificate?", is now available for immediate shipping, autographed by the author, only from the WND Superstore

The divorce records state: "The parties have 1 child(ren) below age 18 and 1 child(ren) above 18 but still dependent on the parties for education."

The records further identify the "oldest child" as "in university."

"Mother resides with youngest child in 4-bedroom house provided by mother's employer," continues the divorce documents.

The documents identify the minor as Obama's stepsister, Maya Soetoro.

“....raising concerns over his presidential eligibility.”

.
Who is concerned? Not the SCOTUS and Congress.

The birth certificate is only a single puzzle piece, mostly interesting because he didn’t want to produce it.

For me, more important is the question of what citizenship he claimed in college, once he was of age, and what passport he traveled on in college. American, or Indonesian. That is information he will not give up willingly, I don’t believe, not for all the Trumps in the world. Because he can’t, and he dares not.

He certainly was & would have had to have been as he was adopted by Soetoro therefore he lost whatever American citizenship he might have had prior.

He could have had Bin Laden killed a hundred times over, and we will STILL be reminding him that he is NOT Constitutionally eligible to be President!

This is nothing new. The point about a potential adoption was raised over two years ago, and it was answered by pointing out the simple fact that a US citizen child does not lose his citizenship by virtue of being adopted by a foreigner. Period.

That is not true. You are repeating a bither myth that has no basis in reality.

What possible advantage would it give him to claim any citizenship other than American?

Is an 18 year old still considered a 'child'. Now IF he applied to college at 18 or older as a citizen of another country then he has got some explaining to get done.

What grounds do you have for suspicion of such an act? What possibly could he have gained from claiming foreign citizenship?

Don’t you recall he wanted to be the Head of Indonesian Govt?

I just don't understand why people keep bringing up Barry's possible Indonesian citizenship. IT DOESN'T MATTER AT ALL.

He was a child. He could not and his parents COULD NOT take away his U.S. citizenship if he was indeed born in the U.S.

IF Barrack Obama (correct spelling) really is Barry's father, then Barry isn't a “Natural Born Citizen”, PERIOD.
Soetoro doesn't even figure into this. Indonesia doesn't figure into this. The United States does not let Indonesia or any other country tell us who our citizens are, or how or when that citizenship status can be changed. Only a person past the age of majority can renounce their U.S. citizenship. They have to do so OFFICIALLY, fill out forms etc. or serve in a foreign military or similar anti U.S. action. (traitor).

So stop already with the Indonesian citizenship angle. There isn't one.

Let me repeat. Look it up, I did.

He was a CHILD. He could not give up or lose his U.S. citizenship. (if he ever had it)

His parents, COULD NOT, on his behalf, remove his U.S. citizenship. (if he ever had it)

You are absolutely correct.

But you are a voice in the wilderness.

How about the law at that time that the child’s citizenship followed that of the custodial parent, in this case, his mother?

"Mother resides with youngest child in 4-bedroom house provided by mother's employer," . .

She taught him well. Everything in Obama's life seems to be "provided by" someone else. . the fellow traveler way. . .

LOL. It's very amusing to see the various birther denominations quarreling with one another.

What makes you think that was the law at the time?
