In his article Geraghty wrote, "one could argue that he would not meet the legal definition of natural-born citizen under because U.S. law at the time of his birth required his natural-born parent (his mother) to have resided in the United States for “ten years, at least five of which had to be after the age of 16.” Obama's mother was 18 when he was born which means she did not meet this requirement.

That could have affected his citizenship if he were born abroad. If he were born here that wouldn't have made him not a citizen, though I suppose it's possible it could have affected his natural born status -- depending on how you want to interpret that.

If people doubted my birth, I would produce my birth certificate right away.

Politicians don't like to give up any information they don't have to. Especially not in the current political climate, and especially not if the politician is as much a product of the current political climate as Obama is. You can see that with health and tax records in the current campaign. If we somehow got to know Bush's or Kerry's or McCain's college grades, for example, that doesn't mean other politicians are going to release their own grades if they can get away with it.

Bathhouse Barry is an illegal alien.

He needs to be exposed, imprisoned, deprived of pension and Secret Service, forced to repay Senate and WH salary, etc. And hanged for his assistance to ISIS.

I’m not talking about money. I’m talking about popularity and how ugly it would make the GOP in the hands of the media who would protect the liar and burn the accuser.

But tio show you how popular Clinton is, he made a total of $13,434,000 for his 54 speeches, which works out to an average of $248,777.78 per speech last year.

And again, it isn’t worth it to get shanghaied by the media by going after him. Believe me, he did some things that he should be imprisoned for like the blood trade with Canada and the passing of the MRV missile tracking program that now has missiles on the blocks in China aimed at our left coast with multiple warheads aboard ready to go.

And the missile technology to accomplish it from Lockheed Martin.

This guy is filthy. But his “posse, the media, will never let him get nailed.

Let’s leave the Birther issue alone except to republish things found by other researchers that question what Obama has written in “his” autobiographies and showed as a Certificate of Birth from Hawaii.

Just point out the contradictions, with sources, and let them stand on their own.

You can raise questions as to why Obama hasn’t shown the American people his original birth certificate and ask the question is there something on it that he doesn’t want us to know. Let him answer the question.

Raise questions as to how close he was to Communist Party operative Frank Marshall Davis (in Hawaii), and for the ZINGER,

Ask Obama and friends about how close he was to Communist Party covert member and Soviet asset/propagandist David S. Cantor of Chicago. Cantor’s son Marc has publicly said the his father “know” Obama, and since Cantor was the key CPUSA political manager of a lot of Chicago’s politics, including the election of Marxist-oriented mayor Harold Washington, this question should raise a lot of eyebrows.

Ask questions. Don’t make definitive statements. Let the Left have hissy fits.

And as Jack Webb used to say, “The facts, mame, just the facts.”

You are making the same point I continuously make. The media is a *WEAPON* and they will use it against us because they have it and we don't.

The question is, why are we so stupid that most of us don't recognize the need to take that weapon away from them, and then turn it's power on them?

Why do we keep living in fear of their use of the weapon instead of recognizing that we should not tolerate their possession of that weapon?

This guy is filthy. But his “posse, the media, will never let him get nailed.

Which once again begs for the question, "Why do we tolerate this media weapon remaining in the hands of our enemies?"

You and I are in agreement concerning the media. And I would like to render a logical opinion, (guess), as to why.

Public opinion is what gets senators, congressmen, presidents and vice presidents elected. Conservatives play this game but not by the same rules. The cabinet members and secretaries have jobs, normally highly paid, if their guy/gal gets in. The only way to get enough stump is to talk to people in great amounts, i.e., the media. If one of these people fore mentioned spent the time to go to every place and talk, they’d never do their job. So the media helps. Outside of FOX, maybe, name another major conservative TV network or news source? Good luck.

Conservatives don’t make news because they are trying to make little changes to a working system. Liberals make news because they are always tweeking changes normally good for them and more encompassing for everyone else. Liberals need the public “dumb and don’t care.” So they put them to sleep with feel good programs to show how they care for you, while they are trapping you more and more into incarceration, either financially or taking control of your health care and virtually everything you do in life.

This is why they have been programming kids in school for 50 years to think like they do: It’s okay for us to help you. We are only thinking of you. And we have to protect you even from yourself because you’re not smart enough to do so.

So when they get the public set up as mushrooms, they have no need to tell the truth or allow anyone else to. This is how the media sells it’s papers. Libs attacking anyone stepping out of line. They mix it in with dooms day reporting like fires, terrorist attacks, and other horrible things so it doesn’t look quite as bad, and sneak it in like taxing air or making a law that only government employees don’t pay taxes and get away with it. But they care for you. And can’t have the conservatives stop them. So they clobber them with the news that conservatives are vastly outnumbered with. And afraid to fight back for fer of losing their jobs.

And when the liberals attack on radio is complete, they will control all the programming, uh, news sources. Libs make news, Conservatives make sense. (In the open)

Similar to a Nigerian 411 finance minister, but not as successful.
