Yep, there you went, right off the deep end!!! Tee Hee!!! Read the first part of the case, read the case, show the first part and the case to other people, and ask them who the suit is about. Obama and Mccain, and McCain does not have a foreign parent. Excerpts:

Second, the Plaintiffs argue that both President Barack Obama and Senator John McCain are not “natural born Citizens” as required for qualification to be President under Article II, Section 1, Clause 49 of the U.S. Constitution, and that therefore because neither person was constitutionally eligible to become President, “

The Plaintiffs in the instant case make a different legal argument based strictly on constitutional interpretation. Specifically, the crux of the Plaintiffs’ argument is that

“[c]ontrary to the thinking of most People on the subject, there’s a very clear distinction between a “citizen of the United States” and a “natural born Citizen,” and the difference involves having [two] parents of U.S. citizenship, owing no foreign allegiance.” Appellants’ Brief at 23. With regard to President Barack Obama, the Plaintiffs posit that because his father was a citizen of the United Kingdom, President Obama is constitutionally ineligible to assume the Office of the President.

Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are “natural born Citizens” for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents.

But you know, you are really on a streak here! I think you should keep going, because by now, anybody reading this will be convinced Mark Levin was right. Because Mark Levin didn’t say the Vattle Birthers were heretical, and had minority legal views. Nope. He came right out and said you Vattle Birthers were NOT rational.

You still haven’t posted anything that declares Obama to be eligible. You’re certainly showing a great example of the composition fallacy.
