In those days Indonesia was at war and only Indonesian citizens were allowed to enroll in public school. If the senator's citizenship was switched to Indonesian, and later switched back, he would then be referenced as a naturalized citizen. In that case, he would not be eligible to be president.

Except that we're not talking about flipping a switch here. U.S. citizenship is a birthright per the 14th Amendment. You cannot lose your citizenship by accident or by the actions of another. Even if Obama's stepfather had him registered as an Indonesian citizen, his U.S. citizenship would remain in effect, regardless of Indonesian law, until Obama himself took steps to relinquish it once he reached adulthood. Nobody has shown any evidence that Obama deliberately took any sort of expatriating act. Garcia's scenario is wrong.

I was always under the same assumption. But have you seen the 8-9 minute video with Berg and his explaining of his case? It explains how that may not always be the case.

I am not a lawyer so what Berg is saying may be total bunk. I will try to find a link if you want to see it.

The problem is there is no credible birth certificate documenting in which country the Marxist Onada was born.

There exists an international protocol about what constitutes a legal birth certificate. As I understand it, the document must include full name. It must also include address (hospital name if born in a hospital), state and country of birth. And it must have affixed to it the appropriate legal seal. These seals are usually embossed on the paper.

To my knowledge nothing the Marxist Onada has produced to date meets all of these requirements. To wit: Birth country is not stated.

Having a son born in Germany, another in Thailand and two in the US I can say unequivacably all my boys birth certificates include the above stated info.

This should be a slam dunk for the Marxist Onada if he has a legally acceptable birth certificate. If he cannot show he is native born American then he should not be running for president. It’s really no more complicated than that.
