“Can you provide the evidence that it was a “bigamous” marriage...and not a “polygamous” marriage? Was there a legal difference in 1961 (?) Hawaii?”

See my comment #65 and Kezia’s affirmation that she married BHO Sr, she never divorced him and considered him a bigamist as well as the Kenya statutory references...

When the 11 AP "factcheckers" get through with Palin's book they should be free to start on "Dreams" by sending a team to a certain hospital in Kenya and to get working on FIOA request for Obama's vital records in HI!

> And if the “marriage” is legally recognized
> (or even took place) in Kenya?

In that context, you may well be right :)

However ...

Let's do some research and report back with references (if necessary) ...

What exactly is the question? Something like:

If Obama Sr’s Kenyan marriage (circa 1958) can be proven via prima facie evidence — assuming that Obama Sr IS the biological father of Obama Jr. — would Obama Sr’s British citizenship transfer to Obama Jr at birth (born circa August 1961), even if Obama Sr was married to Ann Dunham (in Hawaii, Kenya or elsewhere) in Feb 1961?

Further, what timeframe of law are we talking about?:

a) Common Law at the time of the Framing
     (in context to Article II, Section 1, Clause 5)?
b) British naturalization law at the time of Obama’s birth?
c) Current British naturalization law?

Lastly, for the purpose of granting British citizenship, would the British recognize marriages (in this context) conducted under?:

a) the Kadhi’s Courts (Islamic) [very likely in Obama Sr’s case]
b) Indigenous tribal marriage customs
c) Only under the British Protectorate Legal System
d) all of the above

Seriously, the answer may change depending on how the question is framed.

Doesn’t matter what district I’m from to know that Republican complacency re. the constant blatant disregard for our Constitution deems every one of them replaceable.

But you have to vote Republican, or else the Democrats will get in. You have no choice! At least that’s what the anti-constitution RINOs here tell us.

The first question to ask is whether he would have been granted automatic status IF there was a valid marriage...or did the immigration law require an application before his 18th birthday with a review because he was born in the US to a British father assuming the marriage was valid.

I think it would have required an application but not 100% certain.

The other question is why did Barry claim he was a UK citizen. Is it because he was born in Kenya? Because as a lawyer who flitted around the world..he should know he was not a UK citizen since his dad was already married.

It is quite possible that he had a UK passport. I firmly believe that family was involved with the Spooks...and he may have been, too. So one could have been easily obtained with a few lies and a few strings pulled.

If the constitution isnt worth defending against mob rule, than nothing is. We will deserve the tyranny that Hussein will impose upon us if we DONT defend it.

Why fight to the death a machine so clearly destined to fail on its own? Have patience and be ready with a better way once the inevitable happens.

It took the USSR 70+ years, or a LIFETIME before President Ronald Reagan helped them out of their own misery!!!

Is that what you want???

Just of curiosity: Where does Ann Stanley Dunham’s underage (18 years) to be able of confer citizenship to her son fit into this equation???

I am going to play bad boy for awhile here just to think outside the box.

There is no way Obama will ever show any documentation to any board of inquiry.

You can have two million people camped near the Whitehouse all shouting for “Papers!”

You can have all the lawsuits possible all going on at once and yet nothing will go anywhere, and why is this?

Because any and all of those aware of Obamas illegitimate ascension to becoming POTUS are just waiting for him to fall, to fall in disgrace, to absolutely prove beyond any doubt that he had not what was required in a man to be a leader of a nation, a leader of a FREE nation.

There are powers that could probably at any time introduce information of events that would be scathing enough would require Obama to step down almost immediately. They are willing to let Obama go far enough to prove that the affirmative action candidate with Muslim roots and Communist
dreams of a future for America to ride out his little fantasy.

And all of this will come crashing down soon.

It would be best to let this ride on for awhile, let Obama golf every day, let Pelosi enjoy her 300 orgasms a day rhetoric, let the liberals whoop for joy that the healthcare plan will pass, I say lets just let it happen, you cannot temper steel without getting it hot.

All this panic and I am just reading it and not saying anything, actually I am just sitting in my recliner watching Season One and Two of Star Trek The Original Series, oh and working on my motorcycle.

Oh, and try using a calculator

“What about his Indonesian citizenship???”

What proof do we have of Obama’s Indonesian citizenship?

A parent's statement to an elementary school that appeared in a register doesn't count in my book, although is raises eyebrow. Parents lie to get their kids into the “right” school or prevent embarrassing questions all the time.

I only have a suspicion that Obama might have gained and used an Indonesian passport to qualify for foreign student subsidies.

Despite ad nauseum repetition, acquiring additional citizenship after birth while still a minor does not invalidate NBC status (eligibility to be POTUS) per the Elg case. In Elg, two naturalized citizens took their NBC child back to the homeland and made her a citizen of the country and SCOTUS ruled that she was still NBC and entitled to re-entry into the US and all NBC rights without naturalization. Only by renouncing US citizenship after obtaining majority can an NBC lose NBC and citizen status.

Stanley Ann was 18 when BHO II was born. She was likely still 17 (just shy of 18) when conception occurred if the birth was full-term.

But there is no age of mother requirement for NBC status for births within the US, only to meet statutory citizenship requirements for a foreign birth.

Obama would not be NBC, unless you are Ruth Bader Ginsberg and friends, if he was born outside the US to a US citizen, so age or marriage status of Stanley Ann wouldn't matter for POTUS eligibility.

I agree. I think Murdock is playing it this way.

Would it be better to bring Obama down on a birth location and/or citizenship technicality, or alternatively to have the US public realize that they made a terrible mistake in failing to vet Obama’s Marxist, Alinsky-obsessed Chicago Apollo cabal. I say much better for the US public to realize that lying socialists intentionally destroying the US economy are not the answer!

The question is how much irreparable damage can the US economy and global strategic defense posture stand while waiting for Obama’s power to be taken from him?
