I don't know what He thinks about the Obamanation, but He's certainly sending a "message" about global warming to Sodom on the Potomac.
That would make sense as to why all the anti-birthers like O'Reilly, Beck, Matthews and others who have all claimed to have seen the birth certificate feel that is all that is needed to vindicate Obama.
If it's so dead, why did The One bring it up at the prayer breakfast?
Do you have cross country skis? Or snowshoes?

Not a tall! If you are born in the USA (like Springsteen), or on USA territory, and both of your parental units are American citizens, voilà, you are a "Natural Born citizen."
If Obama was born in Hawaii, which is certainly a possibility, he still would not be a "Natural Born American Citizen," because his father was a foreign national, a subject of the Crown.
“there are better avenues of attack than one that isnt making any headway”
True. But you’re not talking about the Obama eligibility quesioni—it’s been steadily gaining ground all along.
Hmmm, so many issues, so little time!
Here’s the program:

She would not have been old enough at the time to convey citizenship. Having been out of the country there was a certain amount of time she would have had to spend in the states before giving birth and she wasn’t here long enough.
No, not even one's parents need be Natural Born Citizens. In PERKINS V. ELG, 307 U. S. 325 (1939), the Supreme Court agreed with the court below which declared Ms. Elg to be a Natural Born Citizen. Her parents were naturalized citizens, who later renounced that in favor of returning to Swedish citizenship. She was however born in the US, of parents who were then citizens, and so she was herself a Natural Born Citizen.
IOW, the only criteria are "born in the country" "of US Citizen parents", how the parents became citizens does not matter. And there is, according to Vattel's "Law of Nations", an exception to the "in the country" requirement for those "born in the Armies" or in "the house of a diplomat". That is because those military or diplomatic parents remain "subject to the jurisdiction" of the nation and are in it's service.
So your position is that someone not eligible to be President can *be* President?
Now that is an interesting position. Illogical, but interesting.
Scooter Libby went to prison...my guess is he would not agree with your characterization of it as merely a fishing expedition.
Libby's crime did not occur until after the "expedition" had begun. I think he would definitely agree with the characterization of it as a "fishing expedition".
It's only indirectly important. The fact that Great Britian might, or might not, have considered junior to be a subject of the queen, doesn't matter, but the fact that BHO Senior was a British Subject and *not* a US Citizen, is absolutely the heart of the matter of Natural Born Citizen.
I suspect you are correct. I think he'd take his chances against "Vattel". But *everyone* knows the difference between "native born" and "naturalized", or even "not a citizen".
Besides he said not to question his *citizenship", rather than his "natural born" status. Since he's a congenital dissembler, perhaps he doth protest too much and really is not even a citizen.
Even if he had been born in the Lincoln Bedroom in the White House, he still would NOT be a NBC!!!
Especially when the "CoLB" that the Obama campaign posted on KOS and which latter appeared on Factchek, with the seal now visible, which it was not in the original photos. has only been seen on the internet, and was no version of it was ever entered into evidence in any court. Nor has any official produced an affidavit attesting to it's authenticity or that of the information it contains.
Reading that, it is clear that the current functioning of the Electoral college, as a mere rubber stamp of the popular election, but retaining the little bit of the original "small state/big state" compromise, is wholy outside what was intended. It's become a direct election, a popularity contest, if you will, in substance if not quite in form.
And that is how we got The One, a man who never ran a company, never ran a state, never even ran a city or county, and who was a federal legislator for only 2/3 of a term, and a not especially noteworthy or active one at that.
So, why won't a court even look at the accusations and the evidence for them.
You got it. UNLESS his real birth certificate shows someone other than BHO Sr as his father, AND that person was a US citizen at the time.
Well, yes, because everyone knows the difference between naturalized and native born. But even without being born outside the US, he's not Natural Born, unless he's lying about who his daddy was.
I have followed this issue since Aug. 21, 2008 when Berg filed the first suit challenging BHO's eligibility. Berg is okay, but he's a bit of a pitchman and his case depends on BHO being born in Kenya.
Of course, it doesn't matter to me who brings Barry Soetoro to justice, as long as it happens. However, IMHO, the best legal mind, with the most sober, complete and air-tight logic in his pleadings is Mario Apuzzo and his lead plaintiff, Charles F. Kerchner, Jr. , Commander USNR (Retired).
Apuzzo's site for this case is: http://puzo1.blogspot.com/
Kerchner's site is: http://protectourliberty.org
These patriots carry the torch of liberty at the forefront of a movement to uphold the Constitution. They deserve our support and our endorsement.
