It is obvious that the Obama campaign has been playing games, refusing to release this information until a lawsuit was entered against them.
He better watch out, Jesse Jackson is gonna gank those nuts!
Not sure what you mean - I went to http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html
and read what it said.
There’s another post with the complete article ....
Correction post #96, suite should be suit.
The important point is that an uproar over something like this will be enough to cause some of his supporters to have second thoughts and be fearful about what else might pop up about the guy.
Competence and Judgement comes in question. The whole damn party closed their eyes to make a racial highwater mark. In attempting to do so, they drop a huge brown floater in the punch bowl, and are saying, “Drink Up”.
OK - can see that he should based on his association with Rev. Wright but it seems that he is eligible for the presidency per his citizenship ... but not his experience or knowledge. I wish that were a criteria as well .....
In order for Obami to have become an INDONESIAN citizen he was either 1) born there or 2) became naturalized.
IF he became naturalized, which is the likely scenario, any previous citizenship would have been renounced since Indonesia does not recognize dual citizenship.
As such Section 349 of the Immigration and Nationality Act goes to the heart of this matter. It states "that U.S. citizens are subject to loss of citizenship if they perform certain specified acts voluntarily and with the intention to relinquish U.S. citizenship. Briefly stated, these acts include:
obtaining naturalization in a foreign state (Sec. 349 (a) (1) INA);
If Obama lost his U.S. citizenship by virtue of his birth upon being adopted by Soetoro in 1967, then all previous records pertaining to Obama being a 'natural born' citizen are now null and void. His U.S. citizenship would have been revoked and would have to be re-instated.
If re-instated he becomes 'naturalized' rather than natural-born since he revoked the natural-born status when he became a citizen of Indonesia. And that's the best scenario!
That record showing Barry as a citizen of Indonesia is a bombshell few people recognize. Kudos to the Lawyer for jumping on this one even if he is a rat. Although I wish he would have waited until AFTER the convention..........
I’ll feel better about his birth certificate, which is in question, if it was examined by independent document examiners, sworn to under oath, and is adjudicated authentic. Annenberg fact check is a liberal sycophant group of Obama.
Thanks for the references!
And? He was adopted by Lolo Soetoro. That made him an Indonesian. There’s a LOT more going on here. Oh and, I don’t want him disqualified because McCain can beat him.

He is defrauding the US voters by pretending to be a US citizen or lying about his legal name and lying about his indonesian citizenship. He is hurting the US voters by presenting himself as a candidate for office when in fact he isn't. This not only hurts the Voters it hurts the country as a whole because the rule of law, our constitution, has been sh** on. The US citizenship is still in doubt, but it is a proven fact he is a Citizen of Indonesian, or was at one time, and failed to inform the election committee of it, which makes him ineligible all by itself. If he is a US citizen and hasn't renounced his Indonesian citizenship then he is also not eligible.
Every state has a process in which any one can file against a candidate and get them removed from the ballot on grounds of eligibility, he doesn't need to prove fraud only that the candidate is not eligible, and he can do that, the proof is there. The MSM doesn't want to talk about it but they should have known the Clintons wouldn't let this just lie there unanswered.
Doesn’t matter what fact check says. The AP confirmed that Obama had Indonesian citizenship on a school record. They posted the photographic image of it. See my post above. For Obama to have Indonesian citizenship he would have had to REVOKE his U.S. citizenship and that ‘hawaii birth certificate’ became VOID.
Ouch!
But would he have been at a legal age to volunteer?
If, in fact, he traveled to Pakistan under an Indonesian passport, that might qualify as volunteering to be an Indonesian citizen, but again, how old was he at the time? 17? 18? Old enough to perform that particular act voluntarily under the law?
Good catch. Of course that’s what Bill means. They are on the cusp of highjacking the DNC’s nomination, the convention and also the White House. Many of us never doubted the HillBilly’s had no class and that they would send out their minions to do their dirty work.
