Right, but the reason why I never say much concerning his father is because I thought the Supreme Court has already resolved this issue?

Obama has never denied his father was not a citizen, and no really said anything about it. I do agree with you about what the U.S. Constitution says, but I just think it has been updated? Honestly I really do not know concerning this issue.

“Right, but the reason why I never say much concerning his father is because I thought the Supreme Court has already resolved this issue?”

The Supreme Court has never ruled on a case concerning NBC because all presidents before Obama met the constitutional requirement of NBC.

In cases concerning citizenship, the court has commented upon the term NBC as a reference for other citizenship circumstances. The Court has always defined NBC as born in country to two citizen parents.

Updating? The only way to update the Constitutation is through an Amendment. No Amendment has ever changed the NBC requirement of the constitution for Presidential eligibility.
