“My father had dual citizenship at birth; US and Canadian. He made a point of telling me that he couldn’t be POTUS.”

If your father was born on US soil, your father was wrong. If he was a citizen at birth, he was a natural-born citizen. Dual citizenship does not preclude eligibility to be President.

I thought this thread had died a quiet death a month ago.

My father was born in Canada to an American citizen father (born in Missouri) and a Canadian mother. As I mentioned upthread he wasn't naturalized until after I was born. That means he still had dual citizenship when I was born. Am I eligible to be POTUS? I think there is enough doubt that I'd want any questions resolved before running.

I believe this to be very similar to Oblahblah's birth situation. But Oblahblah cares only for his power and the Constitutional questions be damned. I think there are some big names in politics that knew this. See Here for a brief glimpse of the possible deception by high ranking Libs.

Father's citizenship has historically had more influence in determining a child's citizenship status than mothers. Oblahblah also had the additional complication of being adopted by an Indonesian father before adulthood.

Seeing the birth certificate would put to rest the question of whether he was born on American soil. It would then be up to our government to determine if his dual citizenship status prevents him from being a NBC. And those of us that disagree would have to decide what action to take if the government's decision viiolates the Constitutiion.

As things stand right now nobody has enough information to determine his birth situation or location. All we can do is speculate on the true meaning of NBC and how that applies to Oblahblah.

$12.00 and a phone call makes this all go away. Just do it, 0.
