He could not use either of those documents to obtain a passport.

Yes he could.

If you claim citizenship through birth abroad to U.S. citizen parent(s), but cannot submit a Consular Report of Birth Abroad or Certification of Birth, you must submit all of the following:

Your foreign birth certificate (translated to English),

Evidence of citizenship of your U.S. citizen parent, Your parents' marriage certificate, and

A statement of your U.S. citizen parent detailing all periods and places of residence or physical presence in the United States and abroad before your birth

"Yes he could. "

Thank you. Yes, that's correct.

And the long way around the block for sure.

And, all that information is the only documentary proof of being born a citizen of the US.

I'll not argue the obscure legal point of whether it constitutes NBC.

And, don't you think it's important that when a POTUS Candidate is born in a foreign country that the citizenry see that documentary proof? Or, should we accept on face value the assertion of the candidate?

What if Sr. sought and/or obtained Canadian citizenship before he was born?

What if mom did?

Would he then be NBC?

Is it a legitimate legal question?

The new commie PM in Canada, Obama's new buddy, may also have documents that bring up legitimate legal questions.

And all of those questions are the basis of my assertion that he needs to prove his NBC status in the Constitutionally defined means:- US Voters

- States (should they choose to ask)

- US House

- US Electoral College

ANY candidate who fails to jump through those hoops is not eligible.
