Apparently coinciding with Barry's birth certificate "dance" this week, Wikipedia has scrubbed references to "Natural born citizen" and "Emerich de Vattel" in its definition of NBC.
Here's the way the page looked on 4/10/11, from the Wayback Machine:
http://replay.web.archive.org/20100410150638/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_born_citizen
If the link doesn't work go to http://web.archive.org/ put in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_born_citizen and click the Show All button. Click on the April 10 date.
And here's what it looks like now:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_born_citizen
Now that Barry and his minions feel they've made fools of us Birthers, they're doing everything in their power to prevent us from going after the REAL issue - his dual citizenship. They released a document that they intentionally had created with "problems" that a few technically savvy folks on the internet would immediately call out as a fraud. They may be evil but they are not stupid.
As for the BC itself, to the sheep whose primary goal in life is to text-in their picks to "Dancing With the Stars" (much of Barry's base) this BC looks like a duck, and therefore it IS a duck.
It looks like this part was edited out by a user named Weazie who does not have an active account. They removed it several times and posted the comment along the lines of stop this, move it to the discussion page.
With Wikipedia, there is an easy solution, add it back. It is a Wiki after all.
So go put it back.
Wikipedia can be edited by anyone.
..at that, unregistered user Weazie has been pretty active at removing it when it was added saying usually it isn’t relevant to today in the notes.

There is a reason serious scholars (and even students) don’t use Wikipedia for any reason...
If where he was born was never the real issue, why did so many birthers waste so much time on it? There was never an ounce of evidence that he was born anywhere else, and lots of evidence that he was born in Hawaii. There was just a question as to why he wasn't releasing his birth certificate. Nothing wrong with just asking that question, but anyone who put forth theories about him being born in Kenya just made all the other issues sound like crackpot stuff.
No court is going to agree with the dual citizenship argument, and people don't care. Time to focus on what Obama is doing to the country right now, not the birther dead end.
Wikipedia is to research and information what sand castles are to the art of sculpture.

Now you’re saying Obama looks like a pu$$y? I thought that was John Kerry?

Calling Monica Crowley, can you accidentally talk about this next time you’re on Fox... thanks...
Yes.
I don’t understand your comment. What you mentioned, I like looking at, but I don’t like looking at Barack Hussein Obama. Did I miss something? :)
Which is exactly why nobody should EVER cite Wiki as a source for anything political (and not for much else, either).
It is really a pile of horse pucky.
It’s just a joke between myself and the other poster. (-:
I learned a long time ago, if i think it is of interest, I take a snapshot of the page.
There is a nice firefox add on that will do this for you. called simply “screenshot”
save everything today, because tomorrow .. it may well not be there
It is not an “issue” as most voters in the country only care about the price of fuel and whether or not they can continue to watch American Idol. God forbid the common folk actually attempt to learn historical standards.
