Of course I’m serious. How did the presidents before 1900 PROVE they were natural born citizens? A family bible proves nothing.

Oh that's right I forgot you were an atheist.

Look, all the "We The People" that were here when the Constitution was adopted became Citizens, thus all the babies born after the adoption became natural born Citizens.

What is so hard to understand?

Seems to me that the Third Article gives the judiciary the job of resolving controversies arising from the Constitution. If somebody had reason to question the natural born citizenship of a Presidential candidate or President-elect, the courts should take up the issue, and at that point it would come down to the judiciary’s established rules of evidence.

That’s what should have happened in Obama’s case as well. It didn’t turn out that way because the courts have all said it’s nobody’s business whether or not Obama is eligible. It is just our country, after all, to which we pledge allegiance constantly, to which we pay taxes, and on which we depend to get the protection of the laws. Clearly we have no skin in the game...

That is the unkindest cut of all, and I will never forgive the judiciary for that stab in the gut. None of my business. As if the loss of my country was too insignificant for me to even care. (spit)
