Just for the record, the first FR thread about Obama's birth certificate wasn't June 10. I checked my notes, and the first one was...9 pm on June 9. That thread, the other threads, and the WND article, along with the rest of Birtherism as we know it, were all tipped by this NRO blog post of June 9.

I know, no real difference, but I wanted to be clear.

Incidentally, the other thing those old "tiger-one" posts, and the responses they received, illustrate is just how bogus the 'two-citizen-parent' claim about natural born citizenship is. Look at the responses he received, and multiple posters said he was eligible as they were simultaneously noting that only his mother was American. No one, not even tiger-one, was suggesting that his father's Kenyan citizenship made him ineligible by proxy, even as they were thinking about his eligibility and his father's citizenship.

That is such a blatant lie it's not even worth responding to.

Yep.

Again this seems like it should be a simple factual determination. Either Obama's father being a foreigner makes him ineligible or it doesn't.

What does the law say in this matter?
