Its not about being born in the US its about having two parents that were born here
Indeed, his daddy was a British national. This has been a well-known fact at least since his book was published in the 1990s. He mentioned it at the start of his 2004 speech at the Democratic National Convention. No one was ignorant of his Kenyan daddy.
And yet, curiously, even though the fact itself was well-known, and even though the Presidential campaign started in early 2007, no one suggested that the mere fact of having a Kenyan daddy made him ineligible until November 2008.
It's almost as if right as he was elected, people suddenly discovered a novel way to say he was always ineligible, but they'd simply never noticed before. How very odd...
Your comment, “And yet, curiously, even though the fact itself was well-known, and even though the Presidential campaign started in early 2007, no one suggested that the mere fact of having a Kenyan daddy made him ineligible until November 2008.” is factually incorrect. Many people raised the issue before November 2008.
World Net Daily asked in June 2008. http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=66787
Your implication that no one cared until after the election is insulting and does a great disservice to the people who were trying to warn the American people about Obama not being eligible.
