So you're cool with a Syrian stealth terrorist elected POTUS as long as he's got an American mom? Why do you think the founders used the words "natural born citizen"? What to you think the purpose of the NBC clause in our Constitution is? Why did the "father of the Constitution" James Madison change the wording in 1795 from "natural born citizen" to "citizen". Do you think Madison did not know what he was doing? Dido Washington for signing it.

Also, one of the problems with the “birthers” and Obama is that it really didn’t matter if he was born in Hawaii or Kenya or anywhere else, as long as his mother was a U.S. citizen at the time of his birth (i.e., she had not renounced her citizenship or had it stripped).
