Settled law move on.
Precedent Obama has rendered it a moot point.
An honest study of the founders writings and contemporary works by others reveals that to them natural born citizen meant born here of citizen parents.
But both parties wanted to run ineligible candidates, so they arranged the McCain fig leaf.
If one’s mother being an American makes one eligible, then Winston Churchill could have been President.
IMHO - first, we have walked down this road once. Second, if there is any doubt it needs to be settled beofre the election; otherwise, the Democrats will claim the victory regardless how badly they lost.
No it isn't. Let the matter be heard by the Supremes, with The People as Plaintiff (try to tell us we don't have "standing"!) and everyone you please as respondent, but certainly including Obama.
Stapled to a writ of certiorari demanding immediate delivery of all Obama's records, and demanding proof of his renaturalization on his return from Indonesia.
FWIW, I think it's 50/50 that he is actually, legally, an Indonesian citizen ever since the 1970's. I think he never renaturalized, but continued to use his Indonesian passport, which constitutes an 'election' of citizenship under U.S. law. (My sister was questioned on that point when I was the subject of a Background Investigation when I was in the Navy. She was a CAN/US dual citizen at birth but had "elected" by voting in Louisiana elections after turning 18.)
I think Obama's an Indonesian and knows it, and Pelosi knows it, and a lot of other people in the 'Rat party know it -- which is why Hillary broached the BC issue back in 2008, using her favorite Philly lawyer as her legal hit man.
Nobody would hear the case, and word came down from the E-GOP (via Michael Medved for one) that the issue would not be countenanced in the GOP, either. Obama was to be given a clear glide slope to the White House so the Chamber's biggest members could get rid of employer-paid health insurance.
