Please read what Snopes says about this issue and explain to me where it is wrong. I’m not challenging you, I simply want to know. My guy says they are FOS, but don’t know what the answers are.

If you, or anyone else who wants to address, I would greatly appreciate it.

I would say snopes engages in ‘sleight of hand.’ If you read Paragraph 7 under “Origins,” it begins with the term ‘natural born citizen,’ moves on to the 14th Amendment qualifications for ‘citizen,’ dances back, and concludes that Obama is a natural born citizen. AS IF there is no difference between ‘citizen’ and ‘natural born citizen.’

Further down they refer to the Obama campaign releasing a birth ‘document’ but not a full birth certificate, only a certification of live birth, again AS IF the two are the same.

But snopes has always had a left-leaning agenda. Too many folks take snopes’s conclusions as Gospel.

Snopes states, “Since Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, they do not apply to him.”

Snopes was referring to the 14th Amendment on laws governing US residence, etc. That’s all well and good, except they state his birthplace of Hawaii as fact. No one but the usurper himself knows if that is a fact or not. Snopes bases their entire argument on this percieved “fact” which renders the argument total garbage.
