Yep. People like EW don’t seem to get that the constitution doesn’t say that a Dual Citizen can be POTUS. It says you have to be a Natural Born Citizen born under the jurisdiction of the United States. If Obama was born with his status governed by that of another Nation, then he is not born under the jurisdiction of the United States, he is born under the Jurisdiction of Great Britain. Hawaii MAY be the place of his birth, but it is not his country. His country is Britain.

"If Obama was born with his status governed by that of another Nation, then he is not born under the jurisdiction of the United States, he is born under the Jurisdiction of Great Britain."

Too bad the US Supreme Court has called BS on that interpretation.

"The real object of the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution, in qualifying the words, "All persons born in the United States" by the addition "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof," would appear to have been to exclude, by the fewest and fittest words (besides children of members of the Indian tribes, standing in a peculiar relation to the National Government, unknown to the common law), the two classes of cases -- children born of alien enemies in hostile occupation and children of diplomatic representatives of a foreign State -- both of which, as has already been shown, by the law of England and by our own law from the time of the first settlement of the English colonies in America, had been recognized exceptions to the fundamental rule of citizenship by birth within the country."
