“The founders knew well the many instances when a foreign ruler had entered a country and, using that country’s own laws and customs, immorally proclaimed himself the ruler of a subjugated nation. The founders wanted to prevent that possibility and also wanted to make sure that there were no divided loyalties in an American president, that the welfare of the USA would be first and foremost in the mind of anyone elected to that office. What better way than to preclude the foreign born?”
This is also about a man who spent his childhood and elementary in Indonesia, getting STEEPED in Islamic culture and tradition. I doubt they taught him American history, American social values, historical perspective, european history right down to WW1, WW2 etc etc etc. His base education has nothing to do with american beliefs, traditions or values. His basal beliefs are from Indonesia!
Subsequently, this man rrives in America and aligns himself with the philosophies and likes of AYERS.....
Eduardo Arellano Felix probably knows more of the history (right down to WW1 and WW2) , culture and societal values of the US of A than BO!
Right. And the rest of his young years being steeped in communist dogma.
I agree that Obama’s ties to Odinga, his “foreignness” stemming from his time in Indonesia etc., his seeking out the “structural feminists” and paling around with Ayers etc. are all real problems. So let’s focus on that aspect of his not-a-natural-born citizen. He is a real threat to our country because he doesn’t really understand the American dream or tradition.
Granted all that. But trying to get him disqualified based on the fact that his mother was one year shy of the time of residence required by the law in force in 1961 is POLITICALLY counterproductive. It won’t succeed anyway but even if it did succeed, it would not help our cause politically. It might have worked a year ago to knock him out of the running before he gained traction, but now it would harm us politically.
Let’s focus on all that’s wrong with him apart from his birth certificate. There’s plenty there to be energized about.
