Military officers from the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines are working with California attorney Orly Taitz and her Defend Our Freedoms Foundation, citing a legal right established in British common law nearly 800 years ago and recognized by the U.S. Founding Fathers to demand documentation that may prove – or disprove – Barack Obama's eligibility to be president.

Big Bump, Andrea!
God bless our men and women of the military! They more than anyone else knows what it is to be American! Love you guys!
Please dear Lord, let one of these lawsuits have standing so that we can rid this country of a man named Obama whose real name is Satan.
I don’t mind being called a birther. I was a skeptic at first, Zero made me a birther.
Bump
Could it be that this might be the last hope of our country?
Is there a judge out there who will agree to hear this case?
I am Old Sarge, and I am a birther.
As more people realize what he’s doing to the nation, more will demand to know who he is.
Texas Fossil is a Birther also.
Time to remove the Lying Kenyan Commie.
Pissant, you’re a great asset to this community, and I know that this is an issue that you’ve researched in great depth. By no means am I asking for or inciting a flame war here, but I don’t understand the issue.
Article 2, Section 1 Paragraph 5 of the Constitution states: “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 the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”
Now, Obama’s mother was a citizen of the United States. Does that not make him a natural born citizen, regardless of his place of birth? Do you have to pop out of the womb in US territory to be a natural born citizen?
And if we’re going into semantics, if we want to get really, really literal, can a caesarian baby hope to grow up to become president, since by definition they never traveled down the birth canal?
I’m not trying to pick a fight. I’m trying to pick my battles. This one seems hollow to me. He’s going to be president for then next four to eight years and I don’t want to spend that time screaming at a wall.
It is very simple. The Constitution did not specifically define natural born citizen (NBC). So it was left up to the congress, the states, and common law. And from nearly the beginning they have stipulated what it meant to be considered a NBC. The law, as it stood in 1961 would not have let Obama’s mother (a citizen) confer NBC status to a child if he were foreign born and the father a non-citizen. She needed to be 19 years of age for that to happen. She was not.
good
A natural born citizen or not, he is most definitely a commie/muzzie/Soros quisling.
Given what he’s doing to the nation the natural birth requirement seems tailor made to prevent this situation.
Single handedly wrecking our economy. Stirring up the entire world with his psychotic behavior. War spilling over our southern border. Begging china to buy even more of our debts.
Me too...count me in...
