This is important...
But this election both candidtes for POTUS had fathers who were born in another country...
George Romnwy in Mexico...
Barak Obama Sr in Kenya...
It will be interesting to see how this plays out...
I thought it was well determined that since Mitt’s father, George, was born to TWO US citizens while they were in Mexico that George’s birth status fulfilled the requirements for Mitt to be a full natural born citizen.
Doesn’t seem to be a point worth mentioning any more, unless I am missing something here....
It’s not going to “play out” they are just gonna have the debate.
But one father was a U.S. citizen, one was not.
As far as we know, in regard to 0’s bio dad.)
That’s a big difference, and a mighty important one.
Yes, that's what I've been saying for 5 years. The GOP wants to get an ineligible candidate elected. There are forces who want to undermine the US Constitution and the Executive Office. Sad to say, but the GOP is right in there with the RATS on this. They tried with McCain. Last election, the ticket with eligible candidates wasn't Obama/Biden, or McCain/Palin, or even Nader/Gonzalez but the fourth ticket of Barr/Root. Yes, truth be told, Barr should have been sworn in according to the Constitution requirements for POTUS. The GOP was a party to treason. They know it and that's why they are running Romney. As soon as Romney is elected, all questions about them ignoring Obama's eligibility can be swept under the rug and they all get off scot free.
“But this election both candidtes for POTUS had fathers who were born in another country...”
The difference being that Obama’s father was never a US citizen....
and Mitt’s father was born in Mexico to US citizen parents making him a US citizen, though not meeting the definition of NBC.
It is not neccessary that an NBC’s parents also be NBCs.....only that they be citizens at the time of the birth.Mitt meets the standard because his parents were US citizens.......and therefore a non-issue for Mitt, but still an issue for Obama......
However, Romney’s father became a US citizen prior to Mitt’s birth. Mitt was of course born on American soil.
Obama’s father never became a US citizen. Obama is not a Natural Born Citizen. And there still is no confirmation that Obama was born on American soil.
You are confusing the issue. Mitt’s father WAS a US citizen, and Mitt himself WAS born in the USA with BOTH parents being US citizens at the time of his birth.
