[Ha Ha Thats Very Logical]

I'm not a lawyer, but as I read this, it sounds like it's an argument for Obama's NBCship--assuming he was born in Hawaii--unless the claim is either that mothers can't transmit citizenship the way fathers can, or that the requirement is for two citizen parents. I don't think the former stands much chance in today's courts, and the latter has always seemed like a ridiculously weak argument to me. Could you clarify exactly what you think this treatise demonstrates?

Well, it says: ‘... the framers thought it wise, in view of the probable influx of European immigration, to provide that the president should at least be the child of citizens owing allegiance to the United States at the time of his birth.” From there it makes an argument that the child of citizens (plural) born overseas are natural born citizens.

I am very much on board with this article. As far as Obama, his mother was NOT single & the Kenyan father is listed on his COLB. Hawaii DOH has verified that they do in fact have the vital records of the union.

KABOOM! Blown up right in your DRONE face.
