Possibly interesting from a political standpoint in re how voters might view such actions.

Um, that was my original point, but I think it would be more than "possibly" interesting to know that a Presidential candidate has been less than honest about his upbringing, especially when the same candidate has based a major portion of his appeal on his biography. I think we need look no further than the media frenzy about Governor Palin to realize the significance of background.

What's becoming more fascinating though, is the vehemence of those who want to clobber the slightest of criticisms, questions or speculation about Obama's background with a the brute force of a sledgehammer.

Hint: nothing I've said on this thread questioned his standing as a citizen, and yet you felt it necessary to respond with an argument on that point.

As I said, it's fascinating.

Possibly so. However, the original article and a great many of the posts since claim he is or may be ineligible to be president. That’s generally the whole point of the discussion about his parentage, birthplace, etc.

I apologize if I lumped you in with the general context inappropriately.

I don’t object to speculation as such, but at some point something resembling proof needs to be produced.
