LOL. Like a typical birther, when confronted with evidence that your argument is dead wrong, you baselessly dismiss it.

LoL. You can hardly call it baseless as I point out to why below. And are you still making the argument that because they didn't have jet commercial aircraft in 1961 that could be flown into Kenya, therefore, Obama could not have been born in Kenya? LoL. That's a silly and baseless argument.

No he did not. You simply cannot produce a single example of anyone making an eligibility argumetn based on the supposed two citizen parent requirement.

Actually, I did produce a single example from July 2008. This guy said it,


"So Obama isn't eligible for President as he isn't a natural born US Citizen according to the wells site. Even if he was born in Hawaii the site claims that he isn't eligible."


NBC Two citizen parents before 2008 election


So ms. Un-Curios, how can Obama be born in Hawaii and not be eligible for president? One can only conclude that the jus sanguinis argument was being presented besides the jus soli argument in July of 2008. It only takes a single instance to blow the Loren's argument apart.

As the argument at the time had to be that two parents required and/or inherited citizenship through his British/Kenyan father that disqualified Obama to be a natural born citizen. The argument in the graphic clearly disregards the mother by saying Obama was ineligible even if he was born in Hawaii.

Nope. Freedom of Speech Wins was not making the two-citizen parent argument, no matter how often you say otherwise.

He wasn't but he said it came up on Wells website.

BTW, this whole line of argument is just stupid and silly since it is an after-Birther goose chase. Obama can't even prove that he was born in Hawaii let alone argue on the merits of natural born citizenship in all the court cases presented.

Perhaps I'm missing the "gist" of the argument here, but clearly RS is correct when stating that the "two citizen parents" argument for one to be a "Natural Born Citizen" was clearly mentioned well before Barry was elected...or selected at the DNC for that matter. Perhaps not a firestorm of conversation here on FR, but doing a simple search with Google for:

two citizen parents "natural born citizen" between the dates of Jan 1, 2008–Aug 24, 2008 gives (according to Google) "About 21,900 results" with many familiar sites listed.

Granted, there are more than likely duplicates, and many/most are probably dealing with John McCain's eligibility questions...but clearly the issue was being discussed early in 2008 regardless that the state run media clammed up on the issue once it moved from McCain to Soetoro.

No you did not.

This guy said it, "So Obama isn't eligible for President as he isn't a natural born US Citizen according to the wells site. Even if he was born in Hawaii the site claims that he isn't eligible."

You'll notice that nowhere is there any mention of a requriement for a NBC to have two citizen parents.

Face it, LorenC is right, and you are wrong.

BTW, this whole line of argument is just stupid and silly since it is an after-Birther goose chase.Obama can't even prove that he was born in Hawaii

Funny. The birthers who cling to the two-citizen-parent argument say the same thing about eligibility arguments based on Bambi's place of birth.
