We must keep our arguments accurate, so as not to look silly. Item No 4 is not determined by Hawaiian law, but by federal statutes.

That point, almost verbatim, is being used by Phillip Berg, et al, in their federal filings.

Yet this raises the question...can states provide for more restrictive citizenship prerequisites than the federal government? Must not a citizen of the United States first become a state citizen, unless born overseas? Probably good questions!

Now you are starting to understand why no one takes the birther movement seriously: all of your arguments are nonsense.

You also have to realize that these laws in regards to citizenship of people born in Hawaii was due to the fact that they had just recently attained statehood. Hence why the state may have had different requirements at that time than the Federal laws pertaining to people born in the other states. The fact is, the law was on the books and active at the time Obama was supposedly born, and do apply in his case.
