Obama Birth Certificate Rears Its Head - Again
AOL ^ | 12/1/08 | Liza Porteus Viana

The election may be over, but not the controversy.

Just when you thought the flap over the genuineness of Barack Obama's birth certificate was all said and done, in comes the We The People Foundation.

The group purchases a full-page ad in The Chicago Tribune - the newspaper of the president-elect's hometown - today and Wednesday, called "Open Letter to Mr. Obama." It's described by the foundation as a "formal Petition for a Redress (Remedy) for the alleged violation of the 'natural born citizen' clause of the Constitution of the United States of America."

"Mr. Obama is respectfully requested to direct the Hawaiian officials to provide access to his original birth certificate on December 5-7 by our team of forensic scientists, and to provide additional documentary evidence establishing his citizenship status prior to our Washington, D.C. press conference on December 8," the foundation says. PolitiFact has said it has no reason to doubt the authenticity of the document.

Among other complaints, the foundation charges:

No more, please, no more, I am about to leave FR if this stuff keeps getting posted....


There are many other sites out there to participate in if you feel that this one is getting beyond your tolerance. At times I think a subject can get to prolific on this forum but as always one can choose to ignore or find other topics to participate in. Once Obama is in office then there will be many other topics involving his actions in which to discuss.

“South Carolina accepted Andrew Jackson’s explanation.”

This shows the date of birth and place of birth for Pres. Jackson. It is well know and I have been there a number of times. North Carolina tries to claim hime but we know he is our. Please give me corresponding information for Sen. Obama. Heck, with modern records it should be a piece of cake, shouldn’t it.

“Andrew Jackson was born to Presbyterian Scots-Irish immigrants Andrew and Elizabeth Jackson, on March 15, 1767 approximately two years after they had emigrated from Carrickfergus, Northern Ireland. Three weeks after his father’s death, Andrew was born in the Waxhaws area near the border between North and South Carolina. He was the youngest of the Jacksons’ three sons. His exact birth site was the subject of conflicting lore in the area. Jackson claimed to have been born in a cabin just inside South Carolina.

Please don't deprive us of your ignorant, arrogant, anachronistic view of the constitution. /sarcasm

Well, if you leave now I will be deprived of your wisdom, and I just got here.

Ever consider that he his doing it to simply wind his opponents up? Simply laughing at all those trying to prove he is not entitled to be President? I expect the last laugh will be with Obama when someone finally gets through the legal loops to view the certificate.

I have seen this idea expressed a few times here on FR, and as far as I'm concerned, this kind of thinking is exactly the wussy-ass, navel-gazing, defeatist kind of thinking that has been plaguing the Republicans, and conservatives, for some time now. The suggestion that Obama has spent almost a million dollars to avoid showing the birth certificate that would help clear up many glaring inconsistencies in his eligibility status just to play a joke on his opponents is absolutely ludicrous. It is akin to a boy on the playground saying "I'd like to stand up for myself, but what if that other kid turns out to have superpowers, or some form of mind control? I'll look stupid! I'd better go home and hide in my room, instead."

Perhaps he is constitutionally eligible and he merely wants to avoid showing something embarrassing on his birth certificate. That is possible. However, I hope you and your whiny, hand-wringing, I-don't-want-to-make-the-hippies-angry brethren don't mind if some people who actually give a damn about the US Constitution make at least a little effort to ensure that it is followed? Is that okay with you?

If that freaks you out, by all means feel free to leave FR. In fact, feel free to join the Democrats. They are always in the market for more gutless yes-men.

There are those that claim that Andrew Jackson, the great early leader of the Democratic Party, was born at sea to Irish parents.

It won’t matter even if it’s proven he was born in Kenya. He was destined to rule!

We’ve elected too many whimps over the years who have allowed the constitution to become irrelevent.

the way i understand it is- at the time, you didn't even need to be born in Hawaii to get a Hawaiian birth certificate.

i want to know the name of the HOSPITAL he was born in, and see THEIR records!!!

“A Kentucky truck driver last week filed a demand that Obama prove he is a natural-born U.S. citizen. Daniel John Essek, 47, wants the former Illinois senator to provide a copy of his birth certificate to a federal judge in London for verification.” .....

That was reported by WSON radio in Henderson, KY this morning, Dec 1

Doesn't matter where he was born.

His father was a foreigner, and for 21 years, Barack, was a citizen of Kenya under the British Nationality Act of 1948. To have maintained his Kenyan citizenship, he would have had to sign some kind of document at age 21.

"5-1. 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 his birth."
