To my shame, I came late to this party. I only started looking into it when Donald Trump was making noises last spring. One search led to another, and eventually I found FR and was astonished to find that there was actually a forum where the issue was being discussed, and at length with citations of sources of info. After lurking for awhile, I finally signed up in June of 2011 and have enjoyed being a FReeper ever since.
After studying this subject pretty much every day for over a year, I can say with confidence that if you're not a "birther" you're either not paying attention or you have an agenda, and it's not one that is conducive to the health of our founding document.
Well said.
There should be absolutely NO questions or doubts about the Constitutional eligibility of ANY candidate for the highest office in the land. It is a no-brainer. The Constitution demands it. Those who slough it off as unimportant, for whatever reason, are not only fools but unworthy to call themselves Americans.
If we do not demand that a potential President (let alone someone who has already been elected to that Office with dubious credentials) meet the requirements of our Constitution, then it stands to reason that whoever occupies that Office is going to defy, rather than comply with what that Document states, and to it’s meaning.
And that is exactly what we have been witnessing since 20 January 2009.
