Must I really reprint everything for you??
Dual citizenship was clearly addressed ...
Note, Article 2, Section 1 of our Constitution does not allow for dual citizenship, in fact, the Framers of our Constitution went out of their way to make sure that no person serving as President of these United States would have to suffer conflicting loyalties to more than one country. It has already been suggested that Barack has demonstrated divided loyalties because of his association with Raila Odinga in Kenya.
Why this is important; according to Fact Check, Obama was both a British Citizen and U.S. citizen, thereby making him ineligible to be POTUS. Quoting directly from the site:
When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdoms dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.s children:
British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): “Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.”
In other words, at the time of his birth, Barack Obama Jr. was both a U.S. citizen (by virtue of being born in Hawaii) and a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies (or the UKC) by virtue of being born to a father who was a citizen of the UKC.
Heres the bottom line, regardless what the vault copy of Obamas birth certificate reads, when he was born he was both a British Citizen and U.S. citizen.
Now, you too, go and have a nice day! And for the last time if none of this matters, PROVE IT!
No, Article II, Section 1 says the president must be a natural-born citizen. It does not define the term, and doesn't mention dual citizenship at all.
Why this is important; according to Fact Check, Obama was both a British Citizen and U.S. citizen, thereby making him ineligible to be POTUS. Quoting directly from the site...
Obama's Kenyan citizenship lapsed when he turned 21 and did not give up his U.S. citizenship. So he is not a dual citizen of anywhere, and has not been since he was in college.
Heres the bottom line, regardless what the vault copy of Obamas birth certificate reads, when he was born he was both a British Citizen and U.S. citizen.
Without question. But that does not necessarily mean he isn't a natural-born citizen.
