A good post.
Unfortunately, the entire subject and environment is such a target rich environment that getting focused on one of the key elements is difficult.
Are either BC image or photos authentic? Almost certainly not. But unless someone is going to challenge the HDOH it is a mute point.
Was Obama born in Kenya? Not likely at all. The relationship between Stanly Ann and Obama Sr. is debunked. And the logistics are improbable.
Was he adopted by Soetoro and became an Indonesian citizen? Maybe. But that trail has been scrubbed well. But Indonesia does seem to always throw the Obots into a frenzy for some reason. It was the question of being Muslim in Indonesia that forced the Democratic blogs to release the first COLB image in June of 2008.
Did he leverage his ‘foreignness’ to attend college, thus disowning the US after age 18? Possibly. But the tell tale Oxy records have been scrubbed well.
Was his legal, acknowledged, documented father a foreigner, more specifically a British Citizen foreigner? YES. Does this disqualify him? YES. Should this be focus in state challenges? YES.
Forget Malcolm X, forget Frank Marshall Davis. There is a divorce that is on file with names and there are INS records for Senior that acknowledge the marriage and Obama II as his child. The state of Hawaii backs this scenario and it is the standing legal fact. Chasing alternative fathers is chasing ghosts and it is counter to an issue that now the absolute key focal point.
I believe all the other items above are problems or potential problems and are very like real scenarios that all create nbC or straight forward citizenship problems for Obama. But none of them will be resolved before November unless a deep insider comes out with a detailed map as too where all the bodies are buried and a detailed accounting of the facts. And the past so murky - very, very few know the entire story.
So it is time to push the scenario and issue that is winnable at the state level during the current cycle - eligibility as a natural born Citizen as defined in Minor.
For the record I believe Obama Senior is the father and he was born in Hawaii or Washington. Kenya is giant red herring that has been planted to distract IMHO. And alternate fathers will never, ever be proven without a DNA test. So why bother with this path - it is a waste of time.
nbC as defined by M v. H. Period. (for now)
“.....So it is time to push the scenario and issue that is winnable at the state level during the current cycle - eligibility as a natural born Citizen as defined in Minor....”
I agree, such a “rifle shot” approach will likely be more fruitful than a “shotgun” approach going after everything clearly bogus about Obama. I hope that ballot access challenges in battle ground states (such as Florida) will have the potential to be as productive as Georgia promises to be. And a courageous and historic decision by Judge Michael Malihi and Secretary Brian Kemp in Georgia will be extremely helpful to the cause of justice as actions proceed in other states.
And folks, in addition to supporting FreeRupublic financially, we should also consider financially supporting some of these challenges to the extent we can.
