Alexander Hamilton was probably the only foreign born American citizen at the time of the adoption of the Constitution that the founders intended to be eligible to be president:

“No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”

Martin Van Buren was the first president actually to have been born an American citizen. All prior presidents to Van Buren were born in British colonies!

As a naturalized citizen of United States, I fully support every article in the constitution. It has served us well so far and there is absolutely no need to change anything.

Obama has already figured out how to use the internet to launder foreign campaign funds.

His ACORN group has been working on how to get foreigners to vote.

It's only natural to assume that the next goal is to get foreigners to be President.

Will Obammy put his hand on a Bible or a Quran? Or disdain the entire process?

Sarah,

It will need to be amended before the electors meet (Dec 15) or else your guy is not eligible.

Isn’t it such that the law at the TIME of an event is the prevailing law?

Maybe he'll simply swear himself in.

Would this be the same Jennifer Granholm who has done such a fantastic job of leading the state of Michigan?

“I’m beginning to very seriously think that 0bama is NOT a natural born citizen, and that the libs have known it and started preparing for an amendment to the Constitution years ago.”

BUT, he committed fraud by running in the first place. I suspect the house would have to impeach and the senate would have to convict. If not, I believe there would be a military coup or, perhaps even better and armed uprising!

Nothing he could or would say would have effect because he would NOT be legitimate in any conceivable way.

The massive fraud we are now witness to would indicate it was a wise provision.

...this may be a blueprint of exactly how Obama's lawyers intend to circumvent the Article II requirement for our nation's President to be "natural born".

Well, they'd better try to erase the "ex-post-facto" and the "bill of attainder" provisions while they're at it.

“McCain would have been no better. He was born in Colon, Panama.”

Are you serious?

He was born in a US Military Hospital on a US Military Base in a US controlled Territory. In all ways he is a citizen.

That mean, nasty old Constitution, it’s yucky.

We should have presidents like Schwarzenegger and Granholm cuz they’ve governed so well.

What we need is government by pot-smoking young airheads; that’ll keep us leaders of the world.

Ein Welt, uber alles!

Ci-cago, that wonderful town, should be the model for its governance.
