Citizenship Issue on MSNBC Hawaii Revised Statute 338-17.8 allows registration of birth in Hawaii for a child that was born outside of Hawaii to parents who, for a year preceding the childs birth, claimed Hawaii as their place of residence. The parents would be issued a Certification of Live Birth.
This is not proof of where the child was born. It only proves that the parents claimed Hawaii as their main place of residence for the prior year.
British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.
A natural born citizen, would not be a citizen of any other nation than the United States. That is what "natural born" means. By nature, the child, would be only a US citizen, because both of his parents were US citizens, and NO OTHER NATION, can by law claim him to be under their jurisdiction, at the moment of his birth. That was not the case with Obama. He was, by law, a Citizen of the United Kingdom, the moment he was born, and then, by law, he became a citizen of Kenya on Dec. 12, 1963.
For a more detailed explaination of natural born citizen, see my other related video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bp2kKN...
Au contraire !
The only way we get better at stuff is via practice and mistakes !
(and i should know re mistakes)
That distinction exists only in your mind. It is not present anywhere in the Constitution or US law.
In the Wong Kim Ark’s case in 1898, the Supreme Court used the term of “native born citizen” to described Ark’s U.S. birth instead of stating him to be a “natural born citizen”. A distinction made by the Supreme Court at the time that would only mean to be Wong Ark could not legally become President.
There was a time when minor children traveled on a parent’s passport. That is now changed, but I don’t know how recent.
Thanks, hoosiermama and BP2.

“It’s your time and effort. Waste away.”
When the day comes that the majority of people believe that it is a waste of our time and effort to defend the Constitution and the rule of law, then you can bet your sweet gecko, that you’ll be pounding sand until the day your shrivel up and die.
If you don’t care enough about our country and our military to make sure that the future President of the United States of America is eligible to hold that postion, then you’re no patriot.
Why the heck do YOU think Obama is spending $$$$$$$$$$$$$ and fighting so hard to keep his birth certificate and other pertinent records a secret?
As someone who honors and respects our military, I find your lack of concern appalling and extremely distrubing.
Correct, The precedence set in the Wong case.
Amen, couldn’t have said it any better. An interesting 2009 is ahead for the entire planet.
Well, I do understand your sentiment!
RE “I want the knowledge that justice is being done. Once before I die. “
It’s politics not justice. Congress is a political body, which is why Pelosi wont touch following Moonbat/Sheenan type posts at Democrats.com :
Stop Bush from Pardoning Himself and Cheney
PaulsonWatch: No Bailouts for Bushs Cronies
Theres No Such Thing as a post-inaugural impeachment
Prosecute George W. Bush For Murder

LOL! Sorry for laughing but this is a joke...right? We live in a fallen world and there will NEVER be any justice while satan is running loose aka the liberals! Live life to it's fullest and enjoy what ever freedoms we have left. That's my motto...there is no justice in this life...HELL the Longhorns were robbed by a freakin puter!! YUP! Live life to it's fullest!
Yes. That case is what they say will be the case that will be pertinent to Leo Donofrio’s suit.
Nope. "Natural-born" refers to a citizen at birth.
There are only two categories of US citizens, natural-born and naturalized. A citizen who has not been naturalized is by definition natural-born.
If this is inaccurate, I'd appreciate someone referencing something in statute law or court decisions showing otherwise. Somebody's opinion doesn't count.

Only six other U.S. presidents had a foreign-born parent. Mr. Obama will be the first in nearly ninety years, since President Herbert Hoover was inaugurated in 1929.
Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) is the only president born of two immigrants, both Irish. Presidents with one immigrant parent are Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809), whose mother was born in England, James Buchanan (1857-1861) and Chester Arthur (1881-1885), both of whom had Irish fathers, and Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921) and Herbert Hoover (1929-1933), whose mothers were born respectively in England and Canada.
These threads sure bring out the Obongo supporters.
Bump Dat...
You're statement that you are defending the constitution is pure fallacy. In fact you are striving to defeat the constitution. You are claiming the man is guilty with no proof and that it is he that must prove his innocence. That is in direct contradiction to U.S. Code. We have had at least 172 precedents, 43 presidents & 43 vice presidents times two (winning and losing) that have never had to demonstrate their qualifications to suit you & your over inflated ego personally.
I find the narcissism that you personally are upholding the laws of our land while the entire GOP organization with millions of dollars and a sitting President all of whom spent the better part of two years to succeed at any cost aren't, to be appalling and extremely disturbing. Go back to sucking your thumb newbie.
The Constitution grandfathers those here at time we adopted the constitution.
“No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States”
