The National Newspaper Publishers Association is affiliated with the hundreds of newspapers across the country that cater to the black community or, in the words of the NNPA, “The Black Press of America”. The Northeast Publishers Association is a smaller association that best characterized as the trade association for black newspapers in the Northeast.

The NPA has prepared the advertisement below to go in black newspapers across the country. Walter Smith, a director of the NNPA, blasted out the advertisement to many on their email list with a note saying, in part, “We can educate our readership by either running this ad or making a similar statement in our newspapers.”

The advertisement embraces the idea that Barack Obama was not born in the United States — a position rejected by most Americans. It’s bad for Barack Obama when even the black newspaper publishers of America think he is foreign born.

Should the Constitution be amended for Arnold?

Should the Constitution be amended for Arnold?

By Martin Kasindorf, USA TODAY

LOS ANGELES — Abolishing slavery. Giving women the vote. Establishing the income tax. Limiting presidents to two terms.

Through more than two centuries, it usually has taken a weighty cause to survive the burdensome process of amending the U.S. Constitution. Americans hold the work of the Founding Fathers in such reverence that they've added to it only 17 times since 1791. That's when the first 10 amendments were codified as the Bill of Rights.

Now, debate over a proposed 28th Amendment is focused on the popularity and political future of one man: macho Republican Arnold Schwarzenegger, the former bodybuilder and action-movie star who has been California's governor for barely a year.

With a bit of encouragement from the Terminator himself, some of Schwarzenegger's supporters are pushing for a constitutional amendment that would allow the Austrian-born governor to run for the White House as soon as 2008. Schwarzenegger is blocked by Article 2, Section 1, Clause 5 of the Constitution. It reads, "No person except a natural born citizen ... shall be eligible to the office of president." The 12th Amendment says the vice president cannot be foreign-born.

-SNIP-

But Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., a Judiciary committee member, sees merit in the restriction. "I don't think it is unfair to say the president of the United States should be a native-born citizen," she said at the hearing. "Your allegiance is driven by your birth."

-SNIP-

Supporters of an amendment often note that the Constitution disqualifies from top offices immigrants who have shown loyalty in positions of public trust. Henry Kissinger (who was born in Germany), Madeleine Albright (Czechoslovakia) and Christian Herter (France) were secretaries of State. Retired Army general John Shalikashvili, a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, was born in Poland.

Schwarzenegger gets the attention, but others in high offices could benefit from what has become known on Capitol Hill as the "Arnold amendment."

Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, a Democrat, was born in Canada. (When online surfers reach amendforarnold.org, the Web site's message is a bipartisan "amend for Arnold and Jen.") Sen.-elect Mel Martinez, R-Fla., was born in Cuba. Labor Secretary Elaine Chao is from Taiwan. Rep. Pete Hoekstra, R-Mich., chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, was born in the Netherlands.

I’m not aware that there is such an organ as a “female testicle”. ;-)

The Oakland Post (a major black Northern California newspaper) had an article from August 2009 which focused on the Kenyan citizenship of BO's father as well as BO's alleged Hawaiian birthplace.

Defending spurious born Obama to be a natural born Citizen is no different pleading a sea horse to be a horse.

[noinfringers2]

In addition for Constitutional intent there must be the distinction between ‘natural born citizen’ as only mentioned in Article II for the POTUSA and ‘citizen’ as noted elsewhere.

LOL! This ad looks like it was prepared at the direction of the Obama White House for the 2012 campaign black outreach program! They are anticipating that Obama might be forced by a court, a state like AZ or public opinion to release the long form BC.

My dad was. in 1922.

" Looks like the BC issue is really getting some traction throughout the country. I wonder how that happened? "

Whatever Trump's investigators have found on Obama, it sure has Obama and his people afraid, this article proves that their stonewalling is not working.
Isn't this article tantamount to an admission of guilt ?

[Bikkuri]

She was referring to what was printed in the center of the ad.. ;)

[Bikkuri]

Sorry.. 2/3 way down the ad..

uncomfortable question;
Why is the “black community” so easily deceived?

“”We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the Negro is through a religious appeal. We don’t want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.” Margaret Sanger

" The ad is bogus on two counts. '

Isn't that considered false advertisement ? and can they be penalized for it under their state's law ?

[American Constitutionalist]

" Let them run the ad. Trump can hold it up and say, “Look what this group of Obama supporters has to say about this issue.”..

Yes, but, they are misleading the public and the black community in saying, yes, Obama was born over seas, but, since his mother was born here, then he is a Natural Born Citizen.... it's false advertisement.

[American Constitutionalist]

BTTT

[LibLieSlayer]

This ad proves beyond a doubt that even the demon league supporting obama does not believe he is a NBC. They just listened to the press and bought the lie. Hell... they are the lie.

[tsowellfan]

"born on foreign soil"

Sounds like the democrats are closer to conceding Obama was born outside the USA

[tsowellfan]

The BC issue may be the last thing for Obama to worry about
