"But this having one's father being a British subject at the time of birth garners no more from me than a shoulder shrug"

It's more that that though. Barry himself had British Citizenship at birth as well.

No matter where someone was born, would you then be OK with someone having been born with Chinese Citizenship at birth (i.e. dual citizenship) being the Commander in Chief? How about a dual Russian/U.S. Citizen? Or, French/U.S. Citizen? Is that what the Constitution allows? Was that the intent of the framers when they put that requirement in our Constitution?

Please, stop and take a broader view, we have a clear case of conflicting allegiance.

What if FDR’s father was German?

What if Truman’s dad was Japanese?

What if GWB’s parent was Afghani or Iraqi or Iranian?

What if BHO’s dad is Castro? or Kim-jong-Il? of Hugo Chavez?

So if Amadidahad’s kid is born was born in NYC a few decades ago, he can be president?

From what countries is it acceptable to have a dual citizenship and 1st generation lineage? There is a conflict of interest, it’s always been there for him, it’s obvious.
