“Birtherism” is the greatest Alinsky ever perpetrated. Those who use the term assist in the denigration of the Constitution
They have gotten the American people to reject one of the most valuable safeguards bequeathed to us by the founders.
The natural born citizen clause served us well until we allowed it to be ignored.
Barry Soetoro/Barack Hussein Obama should be proof enough of the wisdom of the founders when they tried to prevent him from being President by requiring someone who could only be a US citizen and nothing else.
Born here of citizen parents.
Naturally a US citizen because there is no other possibility.
One cannot be anything else and also be a natural born citizen.
It does not matter if he was born in Hawaii if his father was a foreign national.
Children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of their foreign national parent(s).
Natural born citizen means born here of citizen parents.
People born with divided loyalties, allegiance and citizenship are not naturally Americans.
The children of foreign nationals are precisely who the founders were excluding from the office.
Only when one cannot be anything else can one be a natural born citizen.
No foreign birth.
No foreign parent(s)
No foreign citizenship(s)
No foreign influence on the Presidency is what John Jay stated in a letter to George Washington as the reason for insisting on a natural born citizen.
Obama told us he was born a British subject.
Who believes Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Jay, Monroe, Madison, etc. would have found him to be a natural born citizen?
Who believes they would have thought the recently deceased King of Thailand was eligible to be President?
He was born in Cambridge MA.
Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009, happened with the complete cooperation of both parties.
They want the Constitution changed without the hassle of amending the Constitution.
Confuse people about the clear meaning of a three word phrase and voila, every anchor baby and Winston Churchill is eligible.
The bench was the reason the GOP went along with the fig leaf resolution for McCain that was used by the Democrats as cover for Obama.
Jindal, Rubio, Haley, George P. Bush and Cruz were all up and comers and the future of the party and ineligible.
The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because both parties cooperated in the violation of the Constitution
Glad you have outed yourself as one of those denigrating the Constitution.
I am neither impressed nor persuaded by your words. I have read Wong Kim Ark, and it is dispositive on the subject. It is a brick wall, and no matter how many times Birthers play “Angry Birds” and dive into it head first, and no matter how big the sling slot, the wall ain’t going nowhere.
You would be better advised to drop the whole two-citizen parent silliness, and just default back to a perfectly respectable Fake Birth Certificate conspiracy theory. Then. like any other conspiracy theorists like 911 Truthers, Fake Moon Landing Believers, Ancient Alien believers, Lizard-People-ists, & Flat Earthers, etc., you could have fun, and have conventions, and sell coffee mugs and even print your own magazine! You know, Crazy can be fun!
But that two-citizen-parent silliness makes you look downright stupid, not crazy, and there is a difference. One is just “out there”, while the other is “WTF??? Can’t these idiots read???” Be the former, not the latter.
