It's all explained.
Is ignorance transmittable, if it is you need to be quarantined.
OMFG dude!!! You are so right. I totally never thought about that. On the other hand, what is the relationship between natural born and naturally conceived? Could one be not naturally conceived, yet still be naturally born? You bring up an amazing intellectual issue that must be carried forward. Did you send this to Hannity and Rush!!!! You totally gotta post more here, man.
I smell ozone.
For those intentionally obtuse; it depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is.
Any other pointless word games?
I strongly urge you to do a search of NaturalBornCitizen. You will discover threads going back to early 2008 which will explain it.
We here at FR have covered this subject exhaustively. Basically, natural born citizen is a person born in a nation of citizen parents. In the United States this is not a statutory type of citizenship, but a requirement for eligibility to be President of the U.S.A.
Don’t laugh. I remember when this one really fundamentalist Christian said that babies born via C-section would not go to Heaven because they weren’t “born of water” - (John3:5)
Just who is ....
It depends on the meaning of the word “is”...ask Clinton!
Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.
Unfortuately in the very first sentances it shows it’s own BS
“Is Barack Obama constitutionally eligible for the “presidency?”
“We don’t know.”
We do know. He is not because he lacks parents who were both U.S. Citizens at the time of his birth.
Any male other than Obama Sr. who claims to be Obummer’s father will have to sue in court to establish legal paternity. But any other possible male is dead and can’t sue, so that is that.
The records that do exist will not support any other conclusion. Under the law you may be “fathered” by another and still be the son of the man who accepted you as his son.
biology doesn’t always equate legality.
thus, Obummer is not a natural born citizen
The only open question is, is he a citizen? and if so by what means?
The Big Boo
If you will forgive my immatureity, I will forgive yours.
Actually, I was somewhat serious. Article II says ‘natural,’ not ‘native.’ There is a difference.
“Natural Born citizenship” born to parents whom are U.S. Citizens
“14th amendment citizen” born with partial allegiance to the U.S. ( one parent, parents who are immigrants)
obama ,even if he was born in Hawaii( unlikely) he still would be ineligible to be the President.
obama was probably born in Kenya to a underage mother who could not convey citizenship in 1961 and thus makes obama a kenyan national.
