I don’t care if he was born in the middle of Vietnam, his parents are both citizens therefore he is, no matter where he was born. Obama on the other hand has a different problem. I think the news media is trying to divert attention from Obama’s fake birth certificate.

The illegitimate red-diaper offspring of a Kenyan Muslim and an American hippie leftist is leaving no stone unturned. He is waging preemptive attacks on every issue which might be used against him. His is giving slick overtures to evangelicals, suddenly feigning patriotism, nuancing his stand on abortion, and attacking McCain through surrogates. This guy is the most diabolical creep ever to run for President. That’s how he was able to beat the Clintons; he makes their feeble attempts at triangulation look amateurish. He beat them at their own game.

Since my understanding is they haven’t already done so, I suspect the courts will have to determine what constitutes “naturally born”.

By golly, I do believe we have a loose rock on the obamawall. There is something to this. His mom was NOT in the US long enough to make him eligeable for pres. Expat said this stuff is coming down in days.

No longer a rumor. That’s the only plausible explanation for Obama’s forged birth cerificate.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee was born Aug. 29, 1936 — not within the 50 United States, but in the Panama Canal Zone, where his father, a Navy officer, was stationed.

Only 48 states in 1936. Sorry about that error newspaper...

Hmmm..now there’s an interesting article, eh?

My first reaction is - muddy the waters. But there is an enormous roar on the internet now about BHO’s certificate - so perhaps the writer has seen some of that and thinks he’s doing Obama a favor, not realizing how serious the question of Obama’s actual birth certificate has become..

Not sure- because the whole McCaskill (sp) bill to say McCain IS a legal natural born citizen was odd in the first place.

Aspirin?

According to statute, he’s a natural born citizen. If we’re going to ignore the statute, then Obama should be denied that status as well.

Actually, it might be a good idea to deny both of these guys the opportunity to run for President.

By the way, since I was born and raised in the Canal Zone and continue to live in Panama, Eunice Moscoso’s article has some important factual errors.

When she wrote this piece of shi’ite, she was too lazy to do her homework. She just copied off other imaginative articles written in the past.

Don’t ever hire Johathan Turley. He has never done his homework either. And he is a law professor?
