What does it matter if he was born in the USA. I was told that, in order to be a “natural born US citizen”, that BOTH PARENTS had to be US citizens and the time of the child’s birth. I understand that his old man definitely never was a US citizen. But then again, he is black, and that changes the entire picture in the liberal’s view.

It should not be overlooked that Obama is just one person and that, if it was not for the Congress’ cowardice, he would not have made it to the WH. The culprit is not Obama but those that supported and protected him.

You were told incorrectly. He only needs to be born a citizen. If he's born in the US, his parent's citizenship doesn't matter.

Who told you that? George Washington?

"It thus clearly appears that, by the law of England for the last three centuries, beginning before the settlement of this country and continuing to the present day, aliens, while residing in the dominions possessed by the Crown of England, were within the allegiance, the obedience, the faith or loyalty, the protection, the power, the jurisdiction of the English Sovereign, and therefore every child born in England of alien parents was a natural-born subject unless the child of an ambassador or other diplomatic agent of a foreign State or of an alien enemy in hostile occupation of the place where the child was born."

"III. The same rule was in force in all the English Colonies upon this continent down to the time of the Declaration of Independence, and in the United States afterwards, and continued to prevail under the Constitution as originally established."

United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898)

OBAMA knows he was not born in Hawaii.

Hawaii residents know that after Hawaii Statehood residents there had a several years’ window to have Certificates of Live Birth issued for their kids not born there or in America.

a la OBAMA.
