the accepted definition of “natural born citizen” that took it a step further than “native born” was that both parents be US citizens.

I'd like to see Barry out of office this minute and anything that accomplishes that is fine with me.

But I like speculating on things so let's just entertain this question to see where the tangent leads. Nothing personal so don't get offended. It's just for discussion.

Hypothetical: a woman- US citizen- gives birth to a baby in a hospital in the USA. They go to fill out the birth certificate for the baby. They ask her 'who was the father?'. Now, in my hypothetical, Jane Doe was a real slut and, LOL, it turns out she had been drunk and did the football team- one of whom was a foreigner. It could be one of like 22 guys and there is a small chance the father could be a foreigner.

What nationality does the baby have? Would the baby be eligible to run for President of the USA? Would we require the baby get a DNA test to prove he/she wasn't the offspring of the foreigner? If the foreigner was the father but the baby never met him would the baby have 'loyalties' to the father's country?

There's a whole can of worms you can get into here and I think these questions are interesting and in a way these questions are relevent to the discussion here.

The issue is not nationality or even citizenship, it is whether Barack Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, aka Barry Dunham; aka Barry Obama meets the hightest standard of natural born citizen. But we understand why you would wan tot oblur the requirements for the affirmative action figure liar-in-chief.

Depends. Did she write in a the father one of the 21 US horney guys or the one foreign exchange student? If she duped the foreign kid, then Junior is up a creek because he will have dual citizenship and loyalty to another country even if he never met papa. If she named the US kid with the rich daddy then there’s going to be DNA testing out the wahzoo and most conveniently tests results will likely get rich kid out of a sticky situation and a judge will strike his name from the BC. If she named the poor kid who is the bench warmer, then no questions will ever be asked and they’ll live happily ever after and maybe see Junior in the Oval Office.
