0bama’s problem is he gave up his US citizenship when he immigrated to Indonesia.
If he ever regained his US citizenship, he would have been a naturalized citizen from that point on, not a natural born citizen.

Just produce a valid, verifiable birth certificate and all this noise goes away.

During the campaign, they had a stronger incentive -- characterize Obama as "the other" and somehow "less American."

Big difference between "less American" and "un-American". Obama is actively working to reduce any advantage our country has gained in the world over the last two centuries. The problem is, there are many people born and raised in this country who are only too willing to help.

I don't believe that his mother's actions (having him adopted by Soetero) could have lost his citizenship. At worst he would have had dual citizenship until he was 18 -- then he had to choose.

Has Limbaugh said anything about this?

I don’t know, I’ve been listening to Wilkow since I got Sirius.

I was under the impression not many of them were even going to TOUCH this subject.

Except that under Indonesian law, he could not have dual citizenship.

I want to hear more aobut Dr. Orly Taitz’ claim (in the Cook case) that Obama used as many as 39 different Social Security numbers. What’s with that? Fraud? Identity theft? What did he use them for?

0bama’s problem is he gave up his US citizenship when he immigrated to Indonesia.

Even assuming Obama ever became an Indonesian citizen, taking on dual citizenship doesn't cause you to lose your U.S. citizenship, unless you formally renounce your U.S. citizenship, according to the Supreme Court's decision in Afroyim v. Rusk.

If he ever regained his US citizenship, he would have been a naturalized citizen from that point on, not a natural born citizen.

If Obama were ever naturalized, that would leave a public record in a U.S. courthouse somewhere. Why hasn't anyone found it yet?

There’s something embarrassing on it.

If, however, it was introduced to the Supreme Court, and verified by experts who were vetted to be non-partisan,

and they didn’t release it yet said he is legit,
I’d shut up.
