Expected counterattack to defuse examination of Obama’s provenance.
Fair and balanced. Not a peep about Obama’s forged birth certificate. So it begins.
Must mean there’s more than just smoke to the story of Obama’s forged birth certificate.
I say disqualify both of them. I’m sure there are plenty of people in both parties who would love to have a do-over.
This is a non-issue. Both McCain’s parents were U.S. citizens. If the media is really concerned about natural born citizen requirements, they should look into B, Hussein Obama’s birth records and his mother’s residency requirements.
I dont know what Malarkey is but this article is a whole load of it.
Oh nuts . I guess neither of these guys is a natural born citizen . OVERS !
We went all through this when George Romney was running.
It's all been settled. Born in a military hospital or a US Mother and US Father overseas on official military orders for an overseas assignment with dependents. Registry of US Birth Born Abroad and the US Embassy for a State Department Certificate of birth of a native born citizen.
I Know! Both my Daughters were born while I was assigned overseas.
“The problem is that the framers never defined the term.”
Actually, the very first session of Congress defined the term, and McCain clearly qualifies without any doubt.
There’s plenty of doubt about Obama.
Yep, but they won’t look into (rumors of) Obama’s Kenyan birth.
Both of McCain’s parents were U.S. Citizens so therefore, he is a U.S. Citizen even if he is born in Russia.
Am I right or wrong? All military kids born overseas are U. S. Citizens.
Okay, this is pretty much a dead duck of an issue, but it looks like the Obama team wants this out there again.
So what could the strategery possibly be?
U.S. law defines the term and U.S. law addressed specifically the issue only one year after the U.S. Constitution was ratified.
The liberal news media is 218 years behind the times ...... whenever it suits their political agenda.
Might as well accept the obvious - people of the USA - someone is shoving Obama down our throats -
I thought it was a peoples’ choice - apprently not so much.
What no mention of Obama’s forged birth certificate?
Are all military personnel citizens? If not then I guess the location of the birth would come into play.
Just means they’re shaking in their boots over the recent revelations about Hussein’s Birth Certificate.
Color me amused.
