Lunacy indeed. I certainly understand the sentiment, but if BHO was in fact born in the USA then it will be nigh unto impossible to get him disqualified under some technicality. If some technicality does apply as a potential disqualifier, then it will be THAT law that will be under scrutiny for viability, NOT BHO’s compliance therewith. The Constitution uses simple and broad termiology to specify the restriction, and the legitimacy of the subordinate disqualifying law will be met with high-paid motivated lawyers arguing that the law in question is unconstitutional (and I would be inclined to agree on principle, even if that means not booting BHO).

Was BHO born in the USA? or not? That is the ONLY question which practically matters.

Whether a child, who is a US citizen, who is imputed with dual citizenship by actions of others, who does not actively rebuke that dual citizenship, who is saddled with “I didn’t ask for it, I didn’t recognize it, I didn’t renounce it because it wasn’t my choice”, must later suffer from such an issue will not be addressed in the courts. Law only goes so far as cooperation of those involved, and strings will be pulled to persuade non-cooperation regarding a technicality.

Don’t take this as me supporting BHO. It’s a matter of principle, which our opponents have a right to just as much as we do (remember, JMC’s citizenship is iffy too).

Yeah. 0bama could order that a copy of his real BC be sent to any combination of news agencies or neutral third parties for $10 each.

One wonders why he doesn't.
