MUST, -- MUST, -- READ --- FULLEST ANALYSIS SO FAR AS TO OBAMA BIRTH ELIGIBILITY STATUS

Despite the mainstream news media's silence regarding this matter, an increasing number of Americans are concerned that Barack Obama might not be eligible, under the Constitution, to serve as President.

According to the U.S. Constitution, an individual born after 1787 cannot legally or legitimately serve as U.S. President unless he or she is a "natural born citizen" of the United States.

Among members of Congress and the mainstream news media, the consensus of opinion is that anyone born in the United States is a "natural born citizen". However, when we researched this issue a bit more carefully, we found that the consensus opinion is not consistent with American history.

In Minor v. Happersett (1874), the Supreme Court said that, if you were born in the United States and both of your parents were U.S. citizens at the time of your birth, you are, without doubt, a natural born citizen. In the same case, the Supreme Court also said that, if you were born in the United States and one of your parents was not a U.S. citizen when you were born, your natural born citizenship is in doubt. So far, the Supreme Court has not resolved this doubt because, until now, there has never been any need to do so.

With only two exceptions, every American President, who was born after 1787, was born in the United States, to parents who were both U.S. citizens. The two exceptions were Chester Arthur and Barack Obama. When Chester Arthur ran for office, the public did not know about his eligibility problem. Only recently did historians learn that, when Arthur was born, his father was not a U.S. citizen.

Here it is only five days after your post and every day that goes by , more and more people are looking half-heartedly for more and more reasons to bail from the Obama Starship. As time goes by, it will get worse for him. The whole “birther” issue could then enter millions more people’s consciousness as another way they were duped by the Mocha Messiah, Obama. If this happens, he will land with a thud that will be heard THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
Do NOT underestimate the possibility of this happening.
A great many things could be coming to a head at the same time, and this “magic bullet”, as it was cynically called by The National Review, could indeed turn out to be more magical than most of us thought. He would have to quietly relinquish authority in a way I can’t quite fully conceive, but I am beginning to “see it”, as it were.
