Weve always banned truthers at RedState. Increasingly, we have also banned a number of individuals who think Barack Obama is disqualified from being President because despite the Republican Governor of Hawaii confirming the legitimacy of the Democratic Presidents birth origin as a citizen of the United States.
Today I want to reaffirm and make it more definitive. If you think 9/11 was an inside job or you really want to debate whether or not Barack Obama is an American citizen eligible to be President, RedState is not a place for you.
Birfers and Truthers are not welcome here. Period. End of Story.
But I want to expand on this too.
The tea party movement is in danger of getting a bad reputation for allowing birfers and truthers to share the stage. At the National Tea Party, Joseph Farah treated the birfer issue as legitimate. In Texas, tea party activists have rallied to Debra Medina who, just yesterday, refused to definitely dismiss the 9/11 truther conspiracy as crackpot nonsense. If a candidate cannot do that, we cannot help that candidate. Its that simple.

1) I am not a birhter. I am a constitutionalist, and my constitution has been violated by an Usurper. This is not about where Obama was born. I really don’t care where the cretin was born. This is about who he was born TO - a British citizen, under the jurisdiction of Britain, who passed his British Citizenship to his son WHO HOLDS IT TO THIS DAY and can pass it onto his daughters!
2)You bring up an argument that utterly invalidates your point.
You are saying that Osama’s son could be POTUS. He could run for office. That he would have the legal authority to run for POTUS. Because it isn’t just a requirement that you be a Natural Born Citizen to BE potus, you have to be an NBC to even be ELIGIBLE to do so.
A Natural Born Citizen is a person with two parents who are citizens of the United States and born on the soil of the United States.
That is not moving any goal posts, that’s exactly what the framers intended, and matches EXACTLY with both Vattel’s definition of NBC and with the Founders understanding and USE OF the term.
I never go there anyway.
Excuse me. I never mentioned a teleprompter until responding to you. And what do you mean by “you people” noob? Obama can’t speak without a teleprompter and it’s a subject regularly discussed by freepers. Got a problem with calling an idiot an idiot?
It's "goal post". And you call others clueless?
trying to talk logically to you birfers
Retread? Been banned? Visiting from DU? 2nd posting ID which isn't allowed on FR?
Yep..that is the Hawaii my son describes too.
I see some retreads and/or trolls on here. Bucking for Barry and peeing on the Constitution. Each thread should have it’s on monitor - and ban these a##holes immediately! And I nominate you!
Uh....thanks. :-)
obumpa
I am not out to debate this just feel that some citizens are treated differently!
After living in a country where you can come and go as you please even to Canada because I lived a hope skip and jump away.
Now you need a passport or enhanced ID.
Fine
But as a born and raised American Citizen I need my birth certificate to vote, get ID, drive, etc.
Yet one can run for a US Public office and not prove they too are a citizen!
In the past two years I had to produce my BC several times in order to renew and obtain things that I had already received.
In order to get a state ID you need to produce certain document to get that Card.
Yet to renew things that they have on file all those previous documents I have to physically produce them each time but if someone wants to run for President they don’t need too produced these documents something is wrong with this picture!
The office holder is an elected servant?
