.... Last week I referred briefly to the birth certificate flap that right-wing yahoos refuse to lay to rest. This has to do with the idea that Obama was not born in Hawaii and that his birth certificate was forged and therefore
he is not a legal citizen and therefore was not qualified - that word again - to run for president and therefore every act passed into law that he signs will be null and void and besides that he's going to let the Muslims invade, or something or the other. I actually got an e-mail in response
to that reference, telling me I'm way off base and the matter isn't over and giving me a link to some "FAQs" about it. This guy, who I don't think is local, probably believes in Santa Claus and still thinks he's a commie. (All that red, you know.)
Here's what the U.S. Constitution website has to say is one of the ways (there actually are quite a few) a person becomes a U.S. citizen:
"Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic and diplomatic service included in this time)."
In short, any finagling with Obama's birth certificate was completely unnecessary because, like I said last week, he is a U.S. citizen no matter where he was born.
I hear some people are saying, why doesn't he release the Hawaii records and put the issue to rest?
Maybe it's because there is no issue to put to rest. He is a citizen. Period.

Those right wing yahoo founders! They knew it would come to this. Why did they write that natural born clause into the !
Caroline Kennedy is missing one major qualification as a Democrat.
Never having held elective office she has no experience with graft and corruption. How can she possibly serve as a New York Senator? While Hillary never held elective office, she had a lot of experience being the power behind the throne.
Princess Carolyn will not release personal financial info until after she is appoinyed to Senate
They can try to rewrite history all they want, but God is the ultimate Historian. He knows what has happened, and he knows what is in the hearts of these evil men and women. Their actions are recorded.
This author is profoundly stupid.

Yes, he is one of those most disgusting types who is very stupid but fancies himself smarter than almost anyone else. He rants about how Obama is a citizen but never seems to realize that is NOT the question! The question is, is he a NATURAL BORN citizen?
Surely you aren’t suggesting the Kennedy’s have ever received special treatment!
-— There are parts of New York where you can see Canada-—
Guess that will establish her qualifications in the foreign relations arena.
I mean seriously! “They” torched Sarah on every imaginable front. And Caroline couldn’t/hasn’t opened a can of soup.
Apparently the demo party isn’t even embarrased by this!
You talk about audacity!
