This is why birthers are ridiculous. Who cares whether his parents were legally married? Illegitimate birth has nothing to do with the qualifications to be president, especially in this country.
Once again, you are missing the point. Illegitimacy is not the correct question. The correct question is whether he is a natural born citizen as required by Article I of the Constitution. That is what 'birthers' are about, not illegitimacy. There is a big difference.
I read the entire thing waiting for the zinger and all i have is an attempt to smear the child if his parents were bigamists?
Can i have the few minutes back in my life during which i read this blog or whatever it is?
Yes. If this is the real answer, then Obama should be saying it and wearing the badge proudly--nowadays there is little shame in being an "illegitimate" child, and most people do not hold children accountable for the sins of their parents.
Instead, Obama continues to obfuscate and deceive. He cannot come out with the truth; it would contradict his book "Dreams of My Father," and many former Obama voters will find out that they were deceived all along.
Perhaps there are no constitutional issues here, I don't know, but there is definitely deception on the part of the Obama team. And it's time that the American people knew the truth.
Correct.
Unknown parentage grants him automatic born in the USA of USA parents status. Wait for it....
Illegitimate birth has nothing to do with the qualifications to be president, especially in this country.
Correct. The focus should really be on the secrecy of Obama’s past, whether he declared himself a foreign student in school, whether he got any grants as a foreign student and how he managed to get into Pakistan which was off limits to Americans. Did he use a different passport and one from another country.
Why can’t we see his school records, any papers he wrote and other details while at school. Who financed him?
There is so much about his life that we don’t know and he has paid nearly a million dollars to hide. Why?
WHY??????????????????
So instead of “where is the birth certificate?” I’d be happy to see signs about releasing his records.
We are touched by your ignorance. Have you ever read the Constitutional provision or the case law at issue? Apparently not.
Article 2 of the U.S. Constitution does not say that the parents have to be married , but they MUST be U.S. citizens.
NATURAL BORN CITIZEN: CHLDREN OF CITIZENS SHALL BE CONSIDERED NATURAL BORN(U.S. Congress
CHILDREN OF PARENTS WHO ARE U.S.CITIZENS ARE NATURAL BORN
(U.S. SUPREME COURT)
As long as the parents/citizens(both) are U.S. citizens a person is qualified to be President.
obama’s father was a Kenyan national(not a U.S. citizen),and thus not the legal President of the U.S.
