I thought we should have a link to post any and all updates.

Thank you, Starwise.

Ping. (For those on dial-up, perhaps skip page 1 of this thread, a lot of birth certificate photos posted.)

The military hospital wasn’t built until 1941. McCain was born in a Panama hospital.

This just in..... Obama rhymes with Momma

Prayers for the protesters and those who flooded the court with letters.

Prayers for those who brought the suits and their legal team

Prayers that the SC Justices do the right thing, uphold the Constitution, and make O prove he is a natural born citizen.

Thanks.

Really,

Could you imagine cornering Bill Richardson with this a copy of this and the Constitution. Wouldn’t it be amazing to watch him start twitching like OBuma. He needs to fess up to the American People. They all need to come clean..

Hearing Keith Olbermann describe this last night as a “crackpot lawsuit” helped me think it might have merit, then I immediately switched over to Fox where they were updating on the nasty e-mail from the Dutch lawyers to Natalie Holloway’s lawyers,
then I shot the TV .........TV—off, bad TV!

Joseph Farah, WND's founder and editor. "This constitutional eligibility test has become a key issue with me because if the plain language of the Constitution is no longer taken seriously by our nation's controlling legal authorities, we have become an outlaw nation – no longer under the rule of law but under the rule of men."

Sad that WND and the Canada Free Press have the best reportage.

You (and the fellow with the website you link) have latched onto a definition of natural born that isn’t defined in law anywhere.

You have asserted THREE types of citizenship: birth citizenship, natural birth citizenship, and naturalized citizenship.

This is over complicated and has no basis in law that I am aware of.

The “natural born” citizenship test is easy to understand: were you a citizen at birth? If yes, you are a natural born citizen! If not you were NOT a citizen (natural born, or any other type). If you are a citizen NOW you, therefore were naturalized.

Everyone in America fits into one of these two categories (if they are here legally).

McCain fits into the FIRST category. He as a citizen at birth. His married parents were citizens, his father was serving in the Navy. The place of his birth makes no difference whatsoever. He could have been born in Mecca and he would still have been an American from birth.

IE: Natural Born.

There are not two classes of citizens, some more equal than others at birth.

That is my take based on extensive research on this.

The real issue with Obama is not that he’s not a “natural born” citizen, it is that he is NOT A CITIZEN at all. If he did not gain his citizenship at birth, due to the nature of the law at that time, then he never got citzenship AT ALL. (Unless he has hidden his naturalization papers, which I doubt.)

He not only can not be President, if this is true, he can not be a Senator, and can not legally live in the USA.

I knew a girl who was in exactly this position. Her dad had her in the Navy with his Phillipino girlfriend. The married and moved here when she was a few months old. At the time she was admitted on her dads passport. At age 20 she discovered that she wasn’t a citizen. (Same law that is getting Barry!). She applied and was naturalized.

Man, how pathetic is that? Two constitutionally unqualified candidates?

[Blue Turtle]

GO MITT !

[Jack Black]

Please provide some citation in law for your erronious belief that citizenship of a higher type is only conferred on those born “on American soil”.

[DJ MacWoW]

Yeah. Our choices were the pits. I still don’t get how McCain got the nomination.

[Jack Black]

I completely disagree with that interpretation of “natural born”. Those putting it forward repeatedly are needlessly confusing the discussion and have failed to provide any evidence in support of their weird definition.

[Girlene]

Good roundup.

[couchpotatoxxx12]

When are we getting news on this? I assume if we don’t hear today that they accepted it, it’s going to be on the ‘deny’ list Monday.
