Accusing API of colluding with American internet bloggers in an effort to bring down her husband, Mrs Obama said she decided to call API ...snip... Mrs Obama was angered and she came out loud with the following: .... There is no shame in being adopted by a step father.

There’s enough statements out there to question API’s credibility, and that means they are going to have to put up or fold (literally).
National media are going to run with this, and it will start with Talk Radio and the blogosphere, and then creep in through Fox.
I agree.
More will be revealed.
That b!tch will say anything to get her decorators in to the White House. Velvet paintings of swastikas. Fuzzy dice. Shag carpet.
Seriously, if it is proven he isn’t qualified due to where he was born, what would be the protocol for removing his name from the ticket?
I have no idea. I think its up to the DNC rules. But I really don’t know.
Color me still skeptical. Reminds me of ‘the whitey tape’. You know why so many of us at least think it is possible,is because we know in our hearts that Obama and Michelle are radical leftist/marxist racists.
3. Our recordings will be released when we are satisfied it is not intended to be misused in any way or for any gains by an group.

In other words, doesn’t exist or will be released after the election...
I can understand if he is trying to CHA (Cover his ass).
If the tape never surfaces, then thats that. Smoke but no fire. If it DOES surface.... inferno.
He was in London for awhile but I don’t know where he is. Maybe laying low or his wife is keeping him close. I’m sure she was upset when he was detained and I heard him interviewed and he said it was terrifying because for all he knew he was going to rot in some Kenyan prison forever.
The only conceivable way to go from being a natural-born citizen to a naturalized citizen would be to affirmatively give up American citizenship at some point, then later become a naturalized American. I don't see any evidence of that in Obama's case- his Indonesian citizenship was granted at birth, same as his American citizenship. In any event, my understanding is that it lapsed at age 18.
Even if an American citizen voluntarily applied for dual citizenship in another country, that would not, in of itself, lead to him losing his American citizenship. Dual citizenship is perfectly legal under American law and is no bar to a natural born citizen becoming President. My son, for example, was a citizen at birth of the US, Canada, Serbia and maybe Denmark. That is all perfectly legal and he qualifies as a natural born citizen.
If it’s true you can believe they are being strongarmed by the obamathugs as we speak. Threatened, bribed or whatever it takes to stop the recordings from coming out.
That’s my take as well.
Other countries' rules in no way effect citizenship under American law. Following your logic, North Korea could declare George Bush a citizen of that country, ban dual citienship and thereby automatically disqualify him from the Presidency.
When he turned 18, he had one opportunity to declare for American citizenship
I don't follow. Dual citizenship is legal under American law- regardless of his status under Indonesian law, Obama did not have to do anything at age 18 to maintain his American citizenship.
“Indonesia did not permit dual citizenship as has been posted many times on here. You also had to be a citizen of Indonesia to attend school in Indonesia.

Actually it does, because it would have had to go through the US State Department for Indonesia to give Obama Citizenship, his mother would have had to sign Documents to that effect. Mothers have legally binding authority over their Children.
If Obama retains his Natural Born State, why not Prove that? Because he can’t.
Not according to US law. If you renounce your citizenship, you sign Documents with the State Department. Or Obama’s mother in this case. He could get it back, but then, because he was a citizen of another Nation, he would be a NATURALIZED citizen. Its not like his mom knew that he would run for POTUS one day. It’s the only time the distinction even matters.
Pretty simple. Either they have the tape and they’ll put it up on the site for people to listen ASAP- OR they’re not telling the truth.
Obama was not born in indonesia, he was adopted by his Step-Father so that he could by that familial connection GET Indonesian Citizenship. His mother would have renounced his citizenship for him as he would have been way underage to do so. Indonesia, in NOT recognizing Dual citizenship, would have REQUIRED that rescinding before granting Ind. Citizenship.
Yep. I am just waiting to see.
Again, I'm not sure I follow- why would the State Department have anything to do with whether or no another country recognizes you as a citizen? Other countries don't have any say when the US makes someone a citizen, and the reverse is true.
If Obama retains his Natural Born State, why not Prove that? Because he cant.
Unless he affirmatively gave up his American citizenship at one point (which would be reflected in American records), he did not have to do anything to retain his citizenship.
1. They are flat out lying. Made it all up. And have no tape of Michelle. But if so, what would there motivation be? Publicity? If so, then API are a bunch of fools.
2. They are telling the truth and have the tape of Michelle Obama talking to them. But if they do have the tape, why wait to release it? Are they trying to shake Obama down for money? Or some other motive.
3. Some scammer called them and fooled API into thinking it was Michelle. This is the gray middle area. Again, whey don't they release the tape?
He can't even be a US Senator either.
