The problem is, it’s like the other side was minipulating the way the issue was being addressed. Obama was, and for all we know still might be, a citizen of Indonesia. He sealed the deal when he applied for college and scholarships as an Indonesian.

First of all, no one ever produced any evidence that he ever applied for college and scholarships as an Indonesian.

The "evidence" that he did is the same "evidence" that George Zimmerman walked up and started a fight with Trayvon Martin. It doesn't exist. It's an ALLEGATION.

Secondly, if he HAD taken Indonesian citizenship, it wouldn't matter. 3 of our first 4 Presidents held French citizenship - while serving as President.

There's no provision excluding a dual citizen from being President. Never has been.

If it's really a concern (such as dual citizenship with China or Iran, for example) the Founding Fathers were relying on THE PEOPLE to have enough COMMON SENSE not to elect the guy.

I know about Jefferson, and his reasoning. Please list the other presidents, and your sources.

Thank you.
