No, the Constitution requires birth to citizen parents and birth on U.S. soil. Granny’s permanent address for whom the alleged father was never known to live doesn’t do much to confirm a claim that Obama was born in Hawaii. In fact, it begs further question.


Gee, I’ve never seen that phrasing in the Constitution. Could you point me to where it discusses “citizen parents”, please.

The Governor of Hawaii, The Registrar of Records of Hawaii, the Attorney General of Hawaii and the Director of the Hawaii Department of Health have all confirmed Obama’s birth in Hawaii, plus he’s got a legal document from the state of Hawaii which says that he was born there.
As you are well aware, that’s been an awful lot to overcome.

Minor v. Happersett said the definition of natural born citizen is extraconstitutional, saying ..."all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners."

Well, no actually they haven't. The closest anyone has come was the director of the DOH, but she didn't base her claim on a birth record. Ouch!
