I am not a lawyer, but there is no question that the natural-born citizen issue is very important. Further, the fact that no one is vetting candidates for constitutional eligibility is equally important.
I believe there is merit in these cases. Further, Obama’s refusal to submit documents, as McCain did immediately when similar questions were raised about him, shows that he does not feel accountable to the people. More than half in a recent USA Today poll considered this a significant issue.
I think what will happen is if this becomes a problem,Obama will produce a legal Hawaii birth certificate. He was born in Hawaii. I see no evidence to believe otherwise. As for the other issue, two parents are citizens etc, it will never work.
The natural born issue has never been mentioned on this board before Obama was elected...there is no constitutional issue here, but rather a refusal to accept the election results. I believe as do most that if you are born on this soil,you are a natural born American. I can not imagine the mess with people endlessly in courts if some arbitrary standard was established...we can get through Obama’s tenure-no need to turn the constitution on it’s head in order to overturn an election...not a good idea.
