Then how do you explain his father's status, or his adoption to Indonesia???
Enough to link it.
S. Res.511 clearly states that Whereas the term `natural born Citizen, as that term appears in Article II, Section 1, is not defined in the Constitution of the United States
Whereas, a natural born Citizen is not defined? Hold your horses there and re-read. Natural born citizen is not defined. Hmmmmmmm? The bill states, Whereas previous presidential candidates were born outside of the United States of America and were understood to be eligible to be President This piece of legislation was introduced, written and passed clearly with intent to extend the meaning of the Constitution, and prior to SR 511 there was no presidency in Congress.
Mrs. Clintons support and co-authorship of this bill, even though they were battling in the primary election for the presidency, was so incredibly strategic and manipulative on Obamas part that it borders on absolute fraud. The bill completely attempts to redefine his citizenship and will try to keep him eligible, constitutionally as the 44th President, even after he finally shows his Official Vault Birth Certificate.
Here's one ;)
The Founders wanted the President to be a NBC to ensure that the ONE person sitting at the top of the Executive branch has UNQUESTIONABLE, UNWAVERING loyalty to the United States, first and foremost. They did NOT want someone loyal to King George (or his successors) to regain power over the independent colonies. Some even questioned George Washington, but from before 1776 and beyond, Gen. Washington had proven himself loyal to the independent colonies to all but his staunchest critics.
At one point in Constitutional discussions, the delegates in 1787 considered THREE “presidents” in the Executive for “checks and balances.” They ALSO considered a NBC clause for Senators as well. Debating those issues, they felt that a NBC clause for Senators would limit the pool of possible candidates and could cause bad feelings with immigrants needed to “jump start” the newly-formed Republic.
In the end, the Framers compromised that Senators be required to be US residents for 9 years, while striking the NBC clause for the office. The Framers understood that even though the US is a "nation of immigrants," INTERNAL Checks and Balances by sheer numbers of US citizens should prevent "foreign interests" from overwhelming the House and Senate (which, of course, had far fewer Senators and Representatives than we have today with 50 states).
The Framers also compromised on ONE Executive vs THREE. But as a type of “check and balance,” the Framers inserted a "blood loyalty" requirement in Art II, Sect. 1, Clause 5: “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...”
The NBC clause was NOT an accident, nor was it an inane rule to be restrictive to immigrants, and it certainly isn't just a "political" issue ... LOYALTY to the Republic is the reason the NBC clause was inserted into the Constitution for the POTUS.
If the Constitution is being set aside for the convenience of the Democratic Party, then I suggest we go buy some slaves and ban women from voting. These prohibitions disadvantage slave owners and men...
I do so enjoy your posts. I envy your patience, too.
The Constitutional contract is being abrogated by the federal oligarchs, so that they can sweep away the old Republic. It is happening before your eyes and the vast majority of Americans have not a clue because they have become dependents, and have been programmed to lap up the enemdia bilge and like it.
bttt
Fear not! There are plenty enough of us to keep that from happening. Just be ready... Remember the State House lawn when they wanted to adopt an income tax? That was fun!

I'll call Mr. Obama on that bluff.
The Certification of Live Birth ROOT DOCUMENT (or lack thereof) will create more questions than it will answer ... like: WHERE THE HELL was his dear mum February-August 1961? (see the timeline below):
June 1960 -- Ann moved to Hawaii with Parents (exact date unknown)
Sept 1960 -- Ann started classes at U of Hawaii (exact date: Sept. 26, 1960)
Oct 1960 -- Got pregnant by Obama SR
Feb 1961 -- Married Obama SR (Feb. 2, 1961) ANN'S EXACT AGE: 18 years, 2 months, 5 days
Aug 1961 -- Gave birth to Obama JR on Aug. 4, 1961 (reportedly in Hawaii and on that date) ANN'S EXACT AGE: 18 years, 8 months, 7 days
Aug 1961 -- Sighting by Susan Blake in late-August on Mercer Island, Seattle (Obama Jr reportedly 3 weeks old) -- SHE'S TRAVELING FROM HAWAII TO SEATTLE, in 1961, WITH A 3-WK-OLD, only to ship the baby BACK to start classes in Seattle? HUH?! ...
Fall 1961 -- Attended classes in Seattle at University of Washington (see transcripts below), but not with University of Hawaii in Spring of 1961 -- possible BREAK in Hawaiian Residency status, depending on when she left Hawaii
Fall 1961 -- a Listing for Stanley Ann Obama appears in the 1961 Polk directory at the Seattle Public Library: "Obama Anna Mrs studt h516 13th Ave. E. apt. 2"
1961-1962 -- Anna Obama phone listing, as listed in Seattle Reverse Directory, 1961-1962: "Obama Anna Mrs EA3-3346" at "516 Villa Ria Apartments"
Mar 1962 -- Mary Toutonghi babysat Obama Jr at Ann Dunham (aka Anna Obama) apartment for two months (through May 1962)
Sum 1962 -- Sighting by John W. Hunt in June-Sept 1962 "I had moved to Utah for a while after high school, and I came back to Seattle in the summer of 1962. I remember visiting the World's Fair, and then stopping by Stanley Ann's apartment on Capitol Hill. It was a small apartment, upstairs. It was after June, and could have been as late as September, 1962. I visited her for half a day or so. It was after the end of the spring quarter classes, and she wasn't in classes, and didn't have a job. I recall her being melancholy at the time. I had a sense that something wasn't right in her."
Fall 1962 -- Ann Dunman is no longer registered for classes at University of Washington
Fall 1962 -- Obama SR begins school at Harvard, in Boston, Mass.
Sept-Dec 1962 -- Ann moves back to Hawaii, with baby Obama, to live with parents
Spring 1963 -- Ann Dunham resumes school back at University of Hawaii at Manoa
Jan 1964 -- Ann Dunham files for divorce in Hawaii Court
Mar 1964 -- Divorce is granted (Obama SR does not respond to divorce notice in Boston)
If he produces the BC just before the midterm elections it just proves he had not ever before produced this simple piece of paper everyone was asking for...
So by then no matter what he produces it come with dubious believability at best (think Nixon and the tape, Hillary and the billing records)
The big question becomes why the stonewalling why the stall for time what did they need time to hide or alter...
I think Obama' safe window to produce something new on this has just about closed..
The why's of the stalling and the stonewalling are now becoming the red flag question
Remember in politics it not the little crime it the big stonewalling and cover up that kill you
Thanks!
I really don’t care about the BC. It’s merely icing on the cake. By his own admission, he is not natural born - his father was a Kenyan citizen, and his own affiliated website documents that he possessed Kenyan citizenship until 1982, when it expired at the age of 21.
This is exactly what the Founding Fathers desired to avoid - a ruler who governs not according to American ideals or the U.S Constitution, but to the other interests of a foreign land.
Which is what we have now.
BTTT
The issue is ultimately not whether Obama is a U.S. citizen, but whether he is a natural born citizen. Claiming he’s not a citizen is the trap that will backfire.
We can’t let the DNC or the media lead us into that narrative.
bkmk
Either that or it’s a clue they’re lying, or just incompetent. Which do you think? We will find out as this unravels.
With all due respect, I completely disagree. Obama has committed High Treason against this nation. According to our constitution I believe that is an execution offense.
I concur with the constitution. There is no need to waste our taxdollars keeping this evil man imprisoned for life when an example so harsh should be set that NO ONE ELSE EVER CONTEMPLATES THIS AGAIN!
The man should be executed immediately and all those who have aided and abetted him....including members of congress, the DNC, the media, et. al.........
