"Can we reasonably conclude that the Founding Fathers, who had just fought a war with Great Britain and who did not want a foreigner to occupy the Office of President, would have allowed a British citizen, who carries that status not only from birth but also to the time he occupies the Office, to be President of the United States and Commander in Chief of its Military?"

>>>>> Another question is how can a would-be President and Commander in Chief of the Military with current dual citizenship obtain a security clearance which he would need to access classified U.S. government information needed by him to carry out the sensitive functions of that Office? <<<<

The POTUS does not get or need a security clearance.

All classification authority flows from the Executive.

Mario Apuzzo is the attorney who represents a case against Obumer in N.J.

One cannot be both a natural born citizen and possess dual citizenship. Both parents must be American citizens. In Obama’s book, he states that his father was a Kenyan national. Obama is not eligible for the Presidency.

This would probably go to court. Does anyone have compelling evidence that this has been settled by the courts?

I first posted on the “The British Nationality Act of 1948” several months ago. You have gone to greater depth than I in researching this law. Bambi could be toast. WELL DONE!

Isn’t Obama a citizen of Indonesia also?
Didn’t his step-father relinquish Obama’s American citzenship in order for him to go to school there?

Three strikes and your out?

Were not most of the Founding Fathers born British? And to be frank, this is not really a path I would walk down in an open debate with Obama supporters...who would hardly miss this point, and would likely further suggest the Founding Fathers may have been scandalized by Obama's race more than anything else.

There are enough valid objections to Obama, we do not need to muddy the waters with invalid ones.

Concerning Obama and eligibility to be president, he is certainly hiding many of his records. Let's focus on preassuring him to release them and for the media to investigate them, rather than on idol speculations as to what he is hiding. This allows us the advantage of not be marganalized as conspiracy nuts, while at the same time still constructively pursuing the truth of the matter.

Too bad we don’t have real political leaders that will question Obama’s birth (natural born) status!

Let the people and their attorney keep this alive. Obama is a questionable (asterik) President. Just like the dopers in baseball and the Home Run record!

In so far as I can tell, it makes no difference in US Law if another country can claim you as a citizen so long as you refuse to acknowledge it. This developed out of ( I believe) War of 1812 when Britain impressed (kidnapped) Americans claiming that they were British-born. Many countries will RECOGNIZE citizenship based upon ancestry upon petition but that has no legal status here in the US where so many can POTENTIALLY be a citizen(s) of another country.

Wouldn’t the fact that he is still a British citizen disqualify him from being President of the US?

I don’t understand why he was even allowed to be a Senator, actually. He definitely shouldn’t be president.

Does it seem interesting to anyone that ‘NBC’ (natural born citizen) is also the call letters to one of his favorite channels? HA!

Here’s also what I don’t understand. If 0bama goes out because he’s ineligible, does everything he rushed through congress go away (which might be WHY he rushed everything through congress)? And would we get Biden (or would he be ineligible, too?) and/or Pelosi (heaven forbid)? Can we opt for Palin and Bachmann instead, as POTUS/VP? Would we be allowed to vote out Pelosi and Reid, just because they need to be committed so they don’t injure anyone?

For those who didn’t see this:

Michelle Bachmann might run for president in 2012. I think she’s fantastic, but they’ll really beat her up more than Palin. I’m just glad to see more conservatives finally stepping up to the plate.

Go ask this Lawyer to put up an analysis of just how he is going to get around the fact that the marriage to Ann was VOID Ab Initio. How will he prove that Sr was domiciled in Hawaii. Sr was clearly only here temporarily for his schooling.

If he can prove that Sr was domiciled in Hawaii...how is he going to get around the confusing law that talks about a SUBSEQUENT marriage after birth that legitimizes ILLEGITIMATE babies. Where’s the case law on it.

This guy hasn’t done his homework or if he has..he is ignoring it.

He can start here

Have you ever see the Leonardo DiCaprio movie, “Catch Me If You Can”? Having Obama in the White House feels like we are living that movie.

Wasn’t he at one time known as “Barry Soetero” when his mother remarried and moved him to Indonesia?
Does anyone know if he was adopted by his step-father?

If Barry runs again for President in 2012, are we going to have enough Rs to truly challenge him on round 2 since they all blew it on round 1 (first term)?

I’m no lawyer but it seems to me that the possibility that Hussein’s a dual citizen is a factor in determining if he’s a “natural born citizen” or not.
