I’m glad you took the time to read all of that stuff. It was hard to compile the best out there because of all the “irrelevant” rabbit holes out there. I agree it was missing the pertinent dates and so much had repetitive information that may or may not be reliable. The best stuff may have been scrubbed. Sorry you found it a waste but I tried to give an indication of what’s out there.
The situation with Obama’s natural born citizen controversy has elements similar to “Ted” Cruz’s. In both cases, the mother’s citizenship gave automatic citizenship. However, in both cases, the status of “natural born citizen” have not been tested. People ask, why test “Ted” Cruz’s status of natural born citizen when Obama got a free ride and he had a strong case for illegibility. As far as I can see, we should drop it. However, the other side will not give a free ride to Mr. Cruz like they did for their guy, Obama. They may make quite a fight over the issue because they feel the other side tried to use the issue to defame their guy. They want revenge. That revenge may be an expensive fight if “Ted” does not beat them at the pass and get a judicial judgement in his favor.
Actually, in the case of Obama, it was his birth certificate, or COB to be exact, that was at issue.
This affected his claim that he was born in Hawaii.
IMO, the natural born issue was not really relevant unless one could prove he was not born in Hawaii. If the Hawaii case had born fruit, then it might have gone to a natural born issue, but that would have failed as the mother was a US citizen. But they may have argued that the father did not spend enough time in the US...but I don’t really know..
