To: Protect the Bill of Rights

The thing is that we as a nation have never had REASON for any candidate for the Presidency to HAVE to prove his/her citizenship. It was always assumed that it was just the case that someone running for the highest office in the land would just BE a natural-born American citizen.

We now have someone...and not just any someone, but a someone who is running as a “Democrat”, may in fact be a Marxist, and most certainly is a Socialist...who could be two weeks away from gaining the Presidency.

Would you NOT want to make abso-fraggin’-lutely sure that this guy is or isn’t eligible???

I certainly would.


No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.

Not much open to interpretation.

Either Obama was born in this country or not. Either he was born before September 17th 1787, or not.

I doubt he is over 200 years old (just a wild guess), so being a natural born citizen is his only hope.

And because it is the Law of the land and it has been the Law of the Land since 1787, we DESERVE to know.
