'Constitution specifically says you have to be natural born citizen'
WASHINGTON

I hope so.
“”I know,” Matthews responded. “But Ive never asked you for yours.”
“Ask me!” DeLay responded. “Ill give it to you!” “
As far as I know it is the President of the US that has to be a natural born citizen according to the Constitution. I don’t think it is required for a Congressman. So Matthews argument is spurious as usual for the bombastic fool.
I saw that today. He pretty much just shut Chrissy down.
Hey, I have to produce all sorts of things, he said.
DeLay 10, Chrissy 0.
That’s a visual I could get behind!!!
Republicans and independents haven't drunk the Obama Kool-Aid.
Asking for proof that a president is natural born is a sensible question and **easily** resolved by obama with a mere nod of the head.
Spending millions of dollars in attorney time, fight the release of vital records all the way to the Supreme Court, rescinding an officer's orders...now that is NUTZ!
The nutty one here is Obama!
By the way, Obama **himself** claims that his father was a British and Kenyan citizen. It is rational for citizen to ask clarification of the matter from our courts.
That’s the way I feel and I hope the military support is likewise as a whole damn bunch need to go with him.
Hey hey .. ho, ho
AWESOME! Thanks for the ping. As Obama moves to destroy this country more and more everyday, we can expect to see a rise in ‘Birthers’...lol. It may be the only hope of saving our country! Obama and the democrats are completely out of control!
Even babies need passports though.
Snopes attempts to explain this away by stating that "these [parental] qualifications...are moot because they refer to someone born outside the United States." From every analysis of the Framers' documents and 14th Amendment that I have read, this is false. The qualifications apply regardless of birthplace.
Snopes further claims that since the 14th Amendment states that "all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States," then that means that since Obama was born in Hawaii, then he is a natural-born citizen. Nope. Simply being a citizen of the United States is not the same as being a natural-born citizen.
Of course, an actual birth certificate would clear all of that up in an instant. So why is Obama spending millions to avoid producing this and other personal documents? Because he has something to hide, that's why. People don't spend millions to stonewall the release of something that wouldn't hurt them at all if it were released.
Putting together all of the timelines, I’m inclined to go with the Canadian birth. Birth was too close to her enrollment in college in WA. Wish someone up in that area would do some digging.
“...even though there is ample evidence he was born in Hawaii.”
Show us your ample evidence.
Wnd had hired an investigator in Hawaii..and they didn’t bother to look in the Polk directory last year????
Now all of a sudden they find that Toots was living the good Professor’s house. Where was the Professor?
All we need is that smoking gun about newborns not being allowed to fly from Hawaii..and it should be enough to get some people thinking about this whole thing.
But I don’t trust WND..so that rule might not even be true.
Not if she has a note from the hospital that information on the birth has been sent to the AM embassy for registration. Many young children traveled on their parents passport at that time.
