This whole jihad attitude toward those who disagree is getting pretty old. I disagree with Coulter and many others on Obama’s eligibility but I never agree with anyone 100% of the time.
I don’t trust Trump for the same reason.
My rule of thumb is simple. If I agree with anyone 100% of the time, one of us is lying.
Was this in Texas? Birth certificates are asked for but not required to register a kid for school. How else are illegals enrolled.
Natural-born citizens of the United States are those who are citizens of the United States from birth without having to perform any act to acquire or perfect their American citizenship. These are those whose parents are citizens of the United States at the time of their birth.
Natural-born American citizens are those born of American citizen parents, within or without the American Republic, provided in the latter case that one of the parents had resided in the United States prior to the birth of the child.
Their American citizenship is natural, the result of parentage, and not artificial or acquired by compliance with legislative provisions.
A natural-born citizen is one not made by law or otherwise, but born. And this class is the large majority, in fact, the mass of our citizens; all others are exceptions specially provided for by law.
A natural-born citizen is defined as one whose citizenship is established by the jurisdiction which the United States already has over the parents of the child, not what is thereafter acquired by choice of residence in this country.
It is not necessary that a man should be born in this country, to be "a natural born citizen." It is only requisite he should be a citizen by birth, and that is the case with all the children of citizens who have ever resided in this country, though born in a foreign country. Natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens and naturalized citizens, are those born in the United States of parents who are citizens.
Natural-born citizens are also those born outside the United States and its outlying possessions of parents both of whom are citizens of the United States and one of whom has had a residence in the United States or one of its outlying possessions prior to the birth of the child.
Hence, a child born abroad to two US citizen parents is a natural-born citizen: Provided, That at least one citizen parent had previously resided in the United States or one of its outlying possessions. U.S. Code: Title 8, 1401.

My first!
Mr. Donald Trump is an American PATRIOT.
Coulter is a wimpering proObama RomneyBOT
who DARES insult the PROOFERS who protect the US Constitution.
Coulter is a loser by her choice, now infected
with Romney-HERPES.
She is wrong.
obama did not present a certified document that CERTIFIED place of birth.
obama presented a document ( a fake one) that certifies that he birth was recorded at the hawaiian records dept.
At no time is the doc obama is trying to pass off replaces the original (hospital generated) birth certificate.
You smell funny.
And as much as I like Annie, there is a great DEAL of difference between the short form and long form. Hospital? Doctor? Heck, I have more information on my driver’s license than is on the COLB.
And I said it before, looking at the COLB Obama put forth as his birth certifcate: Please tell me what “race” is “African”??
One provides the citizenship status of the parents, the other does not. The issue is not where O was born, but rather his "natural born citizen" status. Barry is not elegible for office.
Ann isn't up to speed on this issue.
My attitude is that the Clinton machine may have found something but realized that the disruption exposing it would cause would destroy Hilary’s chances permanently. Better to accept a loss in 08 and look for an opportunity in the future.
Hilary is many things but stupid and impatient aren’t among them.
She's absolutely correct.
Since he's been sworn in as president, he is president until the congress acts to remove him. And just who in congress is going to do that? Boehner? Reid? SCOTUS?
Trump doesn't ask questions he doesn't already know the answer to. The Clinton machine was formidable, but Obozo's team was stronger and less fraught with peril (see Arkancide).
What conspiracy? Obama on his lonesome keeps his original birth certificate under wraps. His political confederates solicitously cover for him (like you are doing even now) as that is their wont. Where is the conspiracy?
Why do you call it a conspiracy theory when it is not?
No, I lived in Virginia for a brief period and needed to enroll my son. They wouldn’t take the Texas cert., I had to send off for the hospital cert.
Obama is not a natural born citizen even if he was born in Hawaii. Why can’t people understand that simple fact? I was born in Boston, and I am just as ineligible as Obama.
Actually, among other things, mostly brought up by Democrats working for Clinton, it's based on his grandmother and aunt and other relatives stating in 2008 that they were present at his birth. In Kenya.
