So ... Vladimir Putin visits America, knocks up a teenage American girl, fathers a male child, indoctrinates the child into his world views during the child's formative years, and 35 years later buys the U.S. Presidency for the child through the U.S. main stream media. Is that an argument for you?

Well, no, since the scenario you describe wouldn't run afoul of the "natural born citizen" requirement, unless the child was born outside the US. As to proof, unless there's a massive conspiracy which includes hospital bureaucrats, local newspapers (in 1961!) and local and state government officials in Hawaii as well as numerous judges up to and including at least 4 Supreme Court Justices, the proof has been provided to the people who need to see it. I don't have to prove a thing, and I have examined the "proof" that's being circulated by the birth-truthers. It's not just lame; it's Andrew Sullivan lame. (Or do you think Sullivan has a right to Trig's birth certificate too?) Worse, to the extent it gains any traction (which thankfully it's not) it threatens conservatism by making us all look like tin-foil-hatters.

"Well, no, ..."

That scenario doesn't trouble you at all? And you feel you are a Constitutional conservative? I confess I am surprised. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree. Keep your seat belt on regardless, FRiend; there's bumpy road ahead. Either way you look at it, there's a socialist with his eye on the POTUS chair.
