[Red Steel]

Hey, do you see the separation by comma?

The parts of that sentence that I highlighted does not modify the following clause.

The words "foreigner and "alien" stand alone.

[BP2]

The constitution requires the candidate to be quailified.

This is debatable. The courts (and I do too, to some degree) think that that political candidates, even for US President, have a Constitutionally-protected right to run for office. As the First Circuit explained in 1985, candidates' "right to run for public office touches on two fundamental freedoms: freedom of individual expression and freedom of association." (Flinn v. Gordon, 775)

In my mind, that's why Roger Calero was allowed to run for office in 2004 and 2008, despite the fact he's a naturalized US Citizen (not a NBC) born in Nicaragua.

Two observations on this, however:

1) They may have the right to RUN for office, but not HOLD an office that has restrictions in place by the US Constitution (part of the "standing" issues plaguing some of these cases).

2) Was Black Panther Eldridge Cleaver's civil rights violated in 1968 by California SOS Frank Jordan when Cleaver was REMOVED from the ballot as a POTUS candidate for being only 34 years of age? BTW, the Calif. Supreme Court & the SCOTUS refused to hear that appeal. A similar SOS "disqualification" took place with "Larry Holmes" in 2004...

[mlo]

"The founding fathers knew that in order to be president, they had to grandfather themselves in because they were British subjects."

No, that's incorrect. It wasn't because they were British subjects. It was because they couldn't have been citizens of the United States by birth (natural born) when the United States didn't exist when they were born.

"In U. S. v Wong Kim Ark, the court thoroughly discussed “natural born citizen,” and in doing so, Justice Gray quoted directly from the holding in a prior Supreme Court case, Minor v. Happersett..."

Yes they did thoroughly discuss it, and yes they quoted from that previous decision. They quoted from a lot of things, not all of which they agreed with.

But that quote from Minor V. Happersett doesn't do what you claim anyway. It doesn't create an *exclusive* definition of natural born citizen that is dependent on the parents. It just says there is no doubt about that class, and there isn't. But that doesn't mean other classes may also apply.

In fact, the Ark decision makes it plain.

United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898)

"It thus clearly appears that, by the law of England for the last three centuries, beginning before the settlement of this country and continuing to the present day, aliens, while residing in the dominions possessed by the Crown of England, were within the allegiance, the obedience, the faith or loyalty, the protection, the power, the jurisdiction of the English Sovereign, and therefore every child born in England of alien parents was a natural-born subject unless the child of an ambassador or other diplomatic agent of a foreign State or of an alien enemy in hostile occupation of the place where the child was born."

"III. The same rule was in force in all the English Colonies upon this continent down to the time of the Declaration of Independence, and in the United States afterwards, and continued to prevail under the Constitution as originally established."

[mlo]

"mlo, you are full of nonsense for all to see."

You like saying things like that. It's easier than arguing the facts.

[mlo]

Nope. The entire sentence is operative.

[Red Steel]

The words "foreigner and "alien" stand alone.

In other words, Senator Howard listed who is not a citizen.

[mlo]

"The only people claiming to be present at Hussein’s birth live in Kenya, and claim he was born there. One of them is his paternal grandmother."

You know, I listened to that tape. I never heard her say that. All I heard anyone say was "he was born in America" and "he was born in Hawaii".

[DMZFrank]

That certificate of live birth which is not a birth certificate is clearly fraudulent. If you don’t want except the word of six electronic forensic document examiners with a combined total of 120 years of forensic document examination, than acccept the word of this 58 year old black man who vividly recalls the names, appellations, and insults by which black people were referred in the year 1961.

That fake document lists Barack Hussein Obama’s race has African. It lists his mother’s race as Caucasian. Africa is not a race. I can guarantee you that no government entity in 1961, Hawaii included was referring to black people as Africans even if they were from Africa. The race would most probably be listed as Negro or maybe colored, in accordance with their existing Hawaii regulations. That fraudulent document was created by someone with modern-day politically correct sensibilities.

The only reference to the validity of the vault birth certificate made by the State of Hawaii is that they have a valid birth certificate on file in accordance with the laws and regulations of the State of Hawaii. We know that Obama’s half-sister Maya Ng Soetero has a valid Hawaii certificate on file and there is no dispute that she was born in Indonesia. Hawaii will accept the registration of foreign births under their state statutes. Obama’s forged short form certificate of live birth is no proof that he was born in Hawaii.

[Red Steel]

Nope you’re wrong.

Because Howard clarified his words later when he was asked about it again.

[Red Steel]

You like saying things like that. It's easier than arguing the facts.

I say it because you are full of gibberish.

[mlo]

"The Founders wanted the President to be a NBC to ensure that the ONE person sitting at the top of the Executive branch had UNQUESTIONABLE, UNWAVERING loyalty to the United States, first and foremost..."

It is not a question of their *motives*. We all understand the rationale. It's a question of implementation. What they did to implement that motive was to prevent anyone that was not born a citizen from being President. That is what "natural born citizen" means. That was the common law meaning, and it is the meaning the US Supreme Court has ruled on.

[DMZFrank]

She was speaking Swahili on the Berg tape. The interpeter said that she said he was born in a hospital in Mombasa, kenya.

[DMZFrank]

NO NO NO!!! They did not want anyone with divided national ALLEGIANCE!!!

[classical artist]

Thank you, I did not know about the Senate debate.
Here is a good You tube of NBC:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEnaAZrYqQI&eurl=http://www.restoretheconstitutionalrepublic.com/videos.htm

[El Gato]

I'm asking those people for the basis for their belief.

And they would give you the list I think I did above.

Richardson said he was an immigrant. There's anecdotal evidence of his being in Seattle while still a very young infant, so young that normally one would not travel from Hawaii with him. The fact that he doesn't give access to records that most Presidents and candidates do. Those are all evidence for the belief in the likelihood of his not being eligible.

Then of course there is whole issue of "natural born" verses "citizen at birth", which has never been adjudicated, and where even the dicta relating to it is both qualified and somewhat contradictory, and certainly none of it being the same situation of a foreign citizen father and minor US citizen mother. Add in the additional complication of an apparent adoption by a foreign citizen stepfather, and subsequent raising and representation by that stepfather as a national of his own country, and it does raise serious questions, which really ought to be adjudicated.

[classical artist]

Absolutely, he or it is not worth it.
mlo has been on this issue for months & still doesn’t understand. mlo needs to look up obsessive compulsive behavior & then find a remedy.

[BP2]

I don’t know what US Customs would have told her if she arrived here with a newborn baby without the proper documentation, but I can’t imagine why he would have told her to go to England. What could she have accomplished by going to England? I’ve had connecting flights before, but I’ve usually just gotten something to eat there, not applied for a passport.

She would not have been applying for a passport if flying out of the UK -- she would have been just passing through.

If Ann had baby Obama in Kenya, and flew back to the US as some believe is most likely, she most likely would have flown Mombasa, Ivory Coast, UK and then to the east coast of the US.

Think of 1961, flying on a four-engine Boeing 707 with MUCH shorter fuel legs than an aircraft of today...

... and no, IF that is true, telling a woman and infant to get back on the plane and fly nearly 3000 to get paperwork would not have been the procedure in 1961 anymore than it is now...

[Red Steel]

Nope. The entire sentence is operative.

Like I said before, no it's not.

Cyropaedia has done research what Senator Howard meant:

--------------

"Sorry, but it says born within the United States and "subject to the jurisdiction thereof". Here's what Sen. Trumball said to Sen Howard :

The provision is, that ‘all persons born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens.’ That means ‘subject to the complete jurisdiction thereof.’ What do we mean by ‘complete jurisdiction thereof?’ Not owing allegiance to anybody else. That is what it means.

Howard agreed. Trumball also said,

“It is only those persons who come completely within our jurisdiction, who are subject to our laws, that we think of making citizens…”

The "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" means only those that fell completely within the jurisdiction of the United States. Not "owing allegiance to anyone else" applies to native Americans as well foreigners from other countries.

During the debate over the Naturalization Act of 1870, there were Representatives that argued that the 14th Amendment did provide foreigners a de-facto right to obtain citizenship. This contention was not disputed."

[BonRad]

Tony Blankley may know more about the subject of present military attitudes than anyone I can think of, again me just plugging into the new media.

He IS an avid student of the military today, and I saw an interview on youtube or popmodal recently (I think it was from a year ago or even late 2007-alas B4COLB) wherein he said that he went on Atlas Shruggs website often. The subject of the interview was a potential draft.

[22cal]

Lastly, when Bill Richardson said on camera, that Obama is an immigrant, that was very telling to me. Twice. He said it in Spanish, too.

I appreciate your common sense approach. Why would the two pastors in Kenya lie about what they found out? Are people in Kenya delusional when they think Obama was born there? OTOH the logistics of getting to the US from Kenya with an infant (esp. in 1961) seem difficult; those arguing that side have a good point.

What is most disturbing to me is that common sense has taken a walk on these threads. I read them with interest a few weeks ago, but now it's just the 'same old same old' on both sides. Many posters are intelligent and well-informed. But only rarely does either side give the other any credence. Both are deeply dug into their positions and courtesy is lacking.

Obama is President now. That limits the playing field, IMO. It seems to me that only way we can affect his status is in 2012. Be SURE he is not allowed on state ballots without proof of NBC. That is a state by state fight. I for one will take it up with my state representatives.

PS I won't be reading, replying, or posting much on FR now. Last week I was ill but am now well and back at work and also doing 'grandchild taxi service'. :)
