When the critera used to be 10 and 5 years, Ann Dunham would not have been old enough to automatically pass along her US citizenship to her son.

This has been well-documented all over the place.

Of course she wasn't old enough. But that only applies IF she gave birth outside the country, and IF she really was married to BHO Sr. The "not old enough", which is really "not resident in the US for long enough as a quasi adult", only applies if the birth is outside the US. That's all I was saying.

But the whole section of the law speaks to "citizenship", not "natural born citizenship, anyway. She could have been "old enough", and he be a citizen at birth, and still not be natural born. But if the opposite is true, and BO was born outside the country, then he wasn't a citizen at all, let alone natural born.

He's hiding something, and given what he's already revealed, it's hard to imagine it could be anything besides birth outside the US. Why bother to marry BHO Sr if she was going to put Frank Marshal, Malcom X, or anyone else the BC? She might not have been legally married, and known it, I suppose, but that would hardly be all that "embarrassing" given everything else already admitted by the campaign and BHO's spokeswienies. Besides it would give him something to be more like his major constituencies. It would be a source of additional "street cred" .
