This would sure help slam the door on the After-birthers that the Law of Nations written in the US Constitution refers to de Vattel’s works.

Kind of like Orly's famous Kenyan birth certificates? The Adams papers are owned by the Massachusetts Historical Society and are available for scholars. And in any case, John Adams played no part in the creation of the Constitution.

If this guy has Adam’s once private papers that elucidates the NBC and the Law of Nations clauses as he says, your guy Obama is in big trouble...which he states below.

“John says: The Adams papers I am in possession of plainly state they looked to “Vattel’s Law of Nations” for guidance in determining who might be qualified as a “natural born Citizen”.”

Oh really???

John Adams was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and member of the first and second Continental Congress. Adams was also in regular communication with James Madison (yes indeed, the "Father of the Constitution") during the Constitutional Convention period.

Adams did not attend the Constitutional Convention because he was overseas at the time serving as ambassador to Great Britain. He wrote Defence of the Constitutions of the United States published in 1787 (yes, same year as the Constitution) so to state that he had nothing to do with the Constitution is ludicrous. There were no 747's back then so travel across the Atlantic wasn't as quick as easy as it is today, but you knew that already. Right?

We Birthers have come to accept the cold, hard fact that you "after-birther" trolls don't want to be confused with the truth...
