Oh good, this again.

At the time of the drafting and ratification of the United States constitution,
the definition of natural born citizen, combined both the principles of jus soli and jus sanguinis.
“The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens.
As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights. The society is supposed to desire this, in consequence of what it owes to its own preservation; and it is presumed, as matter of course, that each citizen, on entering into society, reserves to his children the right of becoming members of it. The country of the fathers is therefore that of the children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent. We shall soon see whether, on their coming to the years of discretion, they may renounce their right, and what they owe to the society in which they were born. I say, that, in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth, and not his country.”
Emmerich De Vattel, (1714-1767,) Law of Nations, 1758, § 212, "Of the citizens and naturals."
Are we now saying that the AP has a credible fact-checking operation? Media is infallible again because of an obscure reference?

Kenyan-born Obama all set for US Senate

WOW if only there were a not for profit website that I could donate money to the Childrens ward of Kapiolani hospital in Hawaii in the Name of the Doctor that birthed Obama with said donations only made available in that doctors name as proven on the long version of Obama;s BC I am sure the White House would never deny the children such a large and generous donation that the millions interested in this subject would happily donate....
But we already knew this...
So why wasn’t Hillery Clinton on this like a bat from hell during the campaign?
3. In October of 2004, during the ABC Chicago Affiliate’s broadcast of the Obama-Keyes debates, Obama openly admitted — he conceded — that he was not a natural born citizen. (C-Span aired the uncut version of the debates, which contained this exchange, in the second half of April, 2005)
So where's the tape? - Not what they say he said, but he himself saying it ON TAPE. Poof? Gone? Erased? Scrubbed? In David Axelrod's vault?
Isn’t the AP mentioned here the African Press not the Associated Press? African Press played with the BC issue and some tape of supposedly Michelle.
All debates are videotaped. The author of this piece needs to put up or shut up.
