Citizenship Issue on MSNBC Hawaii Revised Statute 338-17.8 allows registration of birth in Hawaii for a child that was born outside of Hawaii to parents who, for a year preceding the childs birth, claimed Hawaii as their place of residence. The parents would be issued a Certification of Live Birth.
This is not proof of where the child was born. It only proves that the parents claimed Hawaii as their main place of residence for the prior year.
British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.
A natural born citizen, would not be a citizen of any other nation than the United States. That is what "natural born" means. By nature, the child, would be only a US citizen, because both of his parents were US citizens, and NO OTHER NATION, can by law claim him to be under their jurisdiction, at the moment of his birth. That was not the case with Obama. He was, by law, a Citizen of the United Kingdom, the moment he was born, and then, by law, he became a citizen of Kenya on Dec. 12, 1963.
For a more detailed explaination of natural born citizen, see my other related video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bp2kKN...
I don’t mean to spoil the party, it’s fun stuff. Enjoy! keep digging.
The secret to beating Obama will be strategy. Democrats tried the court route for many issues and very few of those worked(mostly terrorist rights). It was Pelosi’s carefully controlled constant ‘attack GWB on issues/news events’ strategy. ‘Carefully controlled’ meaning keeping the ‘impeach Bush’ crowd :Sheenan, Conyers, Dennis Kucinich down.
I am dying to see elected Republicans start thinking politically. Dems do everything political, but well. Our side seems clueless.
Sun Yat Sen was a full man, whose live was lived for others. Obama is an empty suit, all vanity and charm, whose actions are all for himself.
Obama, though, has a virtue -- he is honest in what motivates him. He always says "I will decide ...", "What I think is best ...", "What I will do ...", "My ideas will ..."
Obama is deceptive, but not in in speaking to his "I"-ness.
I am an American who was born overseas and that fact has presented bureaucratic problems for me throughout my life. Everything from getting into school, to being tossed in an INS holding tank to being shaken down at customs at US Airports at least 50 times.
If Obama were born in Kenya he would have had similar problems and those problems would have left a paper trail.
Yeah, well, I guess openness can’t be avoided. Hooray for that clickable link, and what it might draw here.
Has anyone seen these sites today?

The factcheck site is dated 10/23/08 but the page data shows that it was updated today at about 6:00 GMT.
I think they are starting to tapdance around the issue, as I don’t remember these two mouthpieces of Camp Obama addressing the issues of Natural Born Citizenship and renunciation/affirmation of citizenship upon returning from Indonesia...all hypothetical analysis, of course /s.
By starting to spin on these issues, I can’t help but think that this issue is starting to worry them.
Welcome to FR.
your wasting is a sad thing try to eat a little more have some leftover turkey.

I think it is important that someone who is going to be President prove he meets the requirements that constitution states must be met to be president.
Thank you, utahagen. A lot of people on this forum agree with you.
wish i could, i polished it all off yesterday.
Let this birth certificate thing go! Let’s beat him on the issues! /s
Go for the cranberry then. It’s red.
I’d take President Biden over Obama anyday.
Lester asked about it at a White House press briefing. I think it is likely he will bring it up again.
Wait a minute sick of libs!!
I remember you!
I just posted a post mocking someone would who come on the COLB threads and whine about how we should beat Obama on the issues. And it was YOU I was mocking!
And now he was elected! And YOU STILL say we should work on strategy.
Hmmmm
Oh groan.
No way. The bc issue stays.
It would.
How would Bobby Jindal be ruled out? Last I heard, Baton Rouge was part of the US.
Yeah, and the White House attempted to make the question itself out to be loony toon stuff by WH press guy rolling his eyes in a most infantile way.
