Let’s assume that yes, he was born in the US. Since his father was not a US citizen, there were some requirements on the mother in order for her to pass on the citizenship to her son.

If he was born in the US, he is a US citizen regardless of who his parents are or their citizenshoip[except in the case of diplomatic personnel assigned heire.] We have birthright citizenship, which is why the children of illegal alliens born here are US citizens and entitled to all the rights and priveleges thereof, including such things as food stamps.

Thanks to you as well. I’m certainly appreciative to the folks here on FR for all the well informed and accurate responses to so many questions.

Kudos to a great bunch of smart people.

[impeachedrapist]

Yep, the elite media have very selective memories concerning not only the Clintons but virtually all Democrats. I’m still waiting for some sharp reporter [cough, cough] to tell me why John Kerry’s “honorable discharge” (for service ending in the early 70s) was signed by President Jimmy Carter (Jan 77 - Jan 81).

[freepersup]

By all means... yes, please, do go on (continue). ;0)

[aruanan]

Like I said, you guys have the investigation skills of a gnat. No wonder FR believes in the grassy knoll, controlled demolitions in the Twin Towers, no plane hit the Pentagon... should I go on?

Funny that you should mention "investigation skills," considering that if you had employed them you would know that it would have been impossible for that COLB to have been printed so far out of registration on that paper.

Remember, we are talking about the laws in effect in 1961, not now! Do you remember Bill, when asked if Obama was qualified enough to be president, saying that the Constitution determines who is qualified? Why? What did he know?

Not true. These requirements apply only if the child was born outside the U.S. and to parents only one of whom was a U.S. citizen. If Obama had been born in the U.S. he could have been born to a 9-year-old Ethiopian mother and a 90 year old Afghani father both of whom died simultaneously with the birth and still be fully eligible to be POTUS.

LOL

[kabar]

Not relevant. If you make the assumption that Obama was born in the US, he is a natural born citizen and eligible to be President. Do you understand the concept of birthright citizenship?

Do I smell Hillary’s hand in this?

Eww.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I don’t want to disqualify him. I want him to stay in the race so we can beat him.

Sarah Palin changed everything.

Sixteen years! Sixteen years! Sixteen years!

[Shooter 2.5]

You’re using Bill Clinton as your source? What the hell is wrong with you?

[LadyPilgrim]

Deceased.
See post 42 also.

Welcome to FR!!! ;-)

[Former Fetus]

Remember, what matters is what was the law in 1961. And the law then said that he was not a natural born citizen. Period!

[Crawdad]

Elmer Gantry or The Great Gatsby?

[kabar]

Of course he is. Hawaii was a state. If he was born there, he is a citizen. The law in 1961 didn’t obviate birthright citizenship.

[Former Fetus]

I was suggesting that maybe Bill knew something about Obama, something like not being constitutionally qualified to be president, something that was not going to come out until later on! It goes along with a Hillary supporter filing the lawsuit.

Thanks for being a pompous ass. You, have no idea what I believe, and your assumptions shout it.

I had a heck of a time getting a state birth certificate (COLB) the first time I applied for my passport, since I was born in the Territory of Alaska. Perhaps things aren't as they appear to be?

If I were going to run for president, I'd make sure my paperwork was in order.
