Can someone explain to me all the talk about him having another name and being adopted. I guess I have really been out of the loop. I think Obama is a dangerous choice, but can't imagine getting to the point he is without definite proof he was born an American citizen, could he?

There isn't any real evidence that Obama was born anywhere other than Hawaii. There has been some unsupported speculation that his birth certificate was forged, or that he was born in Kenya, then smuggled into the US or whatever.

This whole thing is a waste of time- Obama is a socialist empty-suit who is completely unqualified to be President. Trying the Hail-Mary approach of trying to prove he was born in Kenya or some such other nonsense just makes people look foolish.

Yes, he can. He decided to not take federal funds for campaign as the FEC would have to prove his eligibility first.

Also, he was adopted by his Indonesian stepfather or he couldn’t have been able to go to school there. As he did.

Also, he took a trip to Pakistan in 1981. No one that wasn’t muslim could enter Pakistan and certainly no one American. Before going to Pakistan, he made a stop to Indonesia. He had from the age of 18-21 to accept Indonesian citizenship. That would have also shown him as Muslim. That is the only way I know he could have gotten in.

And as I’ve said before, what does a “working through college” student have to go Pakistan? Especially during the times in 1981?

Oh yeah, and if he did accept an Indonesian citizenship, no law broken. But it would make him ineligible to be POTUS.
