When the state of Hawaii is described as “a remote, multicultural, migratory island hub way out in the Pacific ocean”, and the blog writer has no knowledge of the law (see http://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/307/325/case.html), then please spare us the blog ping.

He may know more about History than do you. From MY reading, Hawaii was only given State status as a Trade to the Democrats for agreeing to allow Republican Alaska into the Union. Were it on it's own merits, it likely wouldn't have been a state at all, but would have instead been "a remote multicultural, migratory island hub way out in the Pacific ocean" classified as a "territory."

Is Hawaii a state, and was it so in the 1960s?

Yes. Just as much a state as Iowa, Virginia or Utah.

“The law you linked is about how difficult it is to lose your citizenship and that no one can lose it for you. The author never said this happened.”

“then suddenly reappear back on the island four years later under suspicious circumstances without any evidence of repatriation”

Repatriation means to return to the land of your citizenship, so if Obama returned at age 10 without repatriating, it meant he had lost his US citizenship while in Indonesia.

“I found the blog accurate in all the things that I have knowledge of.”

Hmmm...you mean like quoting from the 1797 translation of Vattel as if it was available during the 1787 convention?

Hawaii became a state in 1959. Only two years later Obama is born there (supposedly). Hawaii is still in transition from “a remote, multicultural, migratory island hub way out in the Pacific ocean”, to a state, with goofy laws that allow anyone, no matter where they were born, to become a citizen of Hawaii, thus a citizen of the United States. Obama may have obtained his Hawaiian birth certificate (if he even has one) in this manner.
