“Suppose, for example, the dad was an American citizen instead of Barack H. Obama Sr. That tosses his name, his heritage, his books, everything. It does not disqualify him from being President but it thoroughly trashes his veracity and biography.”
You mean at the least he’s a RAT liar...a RAT truthteller is an oxymoron. At the most, he’s ineligible to be the POTUS, and should be removed from office.
Basically, yes. But it isn’t illegal to be a lying President so long as the lying doesn’t go to basic requirements of the office. What I am saying is he may have more than the citizenship issue to prompt him to hide his true biography. There’s parentage, grades, associations, faith, you name it he might be trying to hide.
