The case also raises the circumstances of Obama’s time during his youth in Indonesia, where he was listed as having Indonesian citizenship. Indonesia does not allow dual citizenship, raising the possibility of Obama’s mother having given up his U.S. citizenship.

Any subsequent U.S. citizenship then, the case claims, would be “naturalized,” not “natural-born.”

That’s assuming he went through the naturalization process. If not he is still a citizen of Indonesia.

so case (a) he’s British or Kenyan, case (b) he’s Indonesian, and case (c) there is a real full birth certificate in Hawaii stating he was born in Hawaii.

if (c) why not just release it and put an end to the rumors? that is what i don’t understand — i was a doubter until we got to the election with no release of info. i thought he was just hanging on til the last minute to make the questioners look stupid. now i’m curious too.

I’m pretty much where you are kpp_kpp. Just release it if you have it! If it were me and I’d just been elected and had this huge, very ambitious plan to “change” the U.S. I wouldn’t want anything to detract from that & I’d just release the thing.

That said I can only believe it’s his arrogance that’s causing his original birth certificate to be withheld. I think 0bama thinks he doesn’t have to answer to anyone. He thinks he’s better than everyone else and I believe, due to the lack of vetting and the fawning admiration of the 0bamamedia, he thinks he can get away with doing whatever he wants and ignoring what he doesn’t think is important.

JMHO, but it’s just one more example of how he doesn’t have to follow the same rules as everyone else.

There is a case (d) to consider:

Perhaps his birth certificate (merely) contains some embarrassing factoid. Maybe his Dad is not Barack Obama, Sr. (which makes his book and his Kenya obsession look silly---but might explain why helping close impoverished African relatives is above his pay grade). Or maybe his name is actually Wilber Alfred Dunham.

My understanding is that a parent can't to that for a minor child. The child can upon reaching their majority, but not until then.
