EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Dr. Herb Titus Says Most Important Question: Is Obama, Constitutionally Speaking, A “Natural Born” Citizen? Answer: No, He Is Not

In the course of maintaining The Obama Timeline I get my share of emails denouncing my efforts, most of which fall along the lines of, "You're a Nazi and a racist and your mother should have aborted you!" Occasionally the author of the email is able to complete a sentence or two without the use of vulgarity and profanity---although it seems quite difficult for Obama supporters to avoid the use of UPPERCASE FOR EMPHASIS! Here is one example: "The term [natural born citizen] is not defined in the Constitution and has never been applied in such a way that it...

It's finally happened. After three years of Americans asking one simple question, he finally answered us. "Where's the birth certificate?" had been asked by millions of Americans. The request was for information that each member of the public is asked to produce every day for various purposes. Following a USA Today poll, showing that only 38% of the American people believe he was definitely born in the US, Obama felt he had no choice. Additionally, there was a book coming out by author, Jerome Corsi, titled, "Where's the Birth Certificate?" Less than a full day after the book had risen...

Obama mocks Trump at White House Correspondents' Dinner Maybe President Obama should deliver next year's State of the Union at the Friars Club. Last night, the commander in chief unfurled a string of sharp-as-a-tack one-liners at the annual White House Correspondents' Dinner --- many of which slammed square into his potential Republican foe Donald Trump, who was sitting in the audience at the gala... ...Obama also lobbed quips at other potential GOP-challengers such as former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, and Rep. Michele Bachman. But for most of his speech at the dinner, which is known...

Time to turn to the real issue, 'Does Obama qualify as ‘natural-born'? The issue with Obama’s eligibility not only involves his place of birth but also whether he qualifies as a 'natural-born-citizen'. After Obama played his 'Trump' card his supporters are trying to divert voters away from the 'natural-born' issue and obfuscate the definition of 'natural-born'. It is generally believed the Founders considered 'natural-born' to mean born in country to parents who were citizens at the time of the person's birth. As Holmes said to Watson, "The game is afoot." Attempts have already been made to use 'native-born' interchangeably with...

I attended the court martial of LTC Terrence Lakin. Needless to say I was very disappointed as to how the court martial was conducted in that no discovery or witnesses were allowed to be presented about the underlying reason that LTC Lakin believed he had no constitutional choice to faithfully live up to his solemn oath to the Constitution but to disobey orders involving his second deployment to Afghanistan to call attention to a very serious constitutional crisis facing our nation. That reason was the very constitutional lawfulness of the putative president and commander-in-chief to issue orders to surge 30,000...

In spite of overwhelming evidence that only one of Obama's parents was an American citizen thus making him ineligible to qualify as a natural-born-citizen a conspiracy of silence has swept across the political landscape. Is it possible that an entire country was 'punked' by a Certification of Live Birth and we have a usurper in the White House? The courts refuse to hear the case on its merits and politicians avoid the issue like the plague. Not one governor, senator, congressperson or judge has investigated or even questioned the issue. Only one man, an Army doctor, went to the mat...

Late last week during a debate in Parliament, Thailand’s Prime Minister Abhisit Vejajjiva publically admitted his dual citizenship for the first time. The 46 year-old Thai/British citizen has been prime minister since December of 2008 (the youngest prime minister in nearly 60 years) after a political career that began with his election to Parliament at the youthful age of 27. Until last week Abhisit had successfully concealed his British citizenship.

Arizona Senate Bill 1308 passed out of committee yesterday by an 8-5 vote. This bill is a cleverly disguised attempt to protect President Obama from eligibility scrutiny. It does this by declaring persons born with dual citizenship as natural born citizens. But it does this in a very sneaky manner. That's right. Arizona has now passed out of committee a bill which states that persons born with dual citizenship are natural born citizens of the United States. This same bill is being considered by all states party to the compact. So infamous congratulations to the 8 votes in Arizona who...

ARMY REFUSES LAKIN'S REQUEST TO HAVE OBAMA TESTIFY AND REFUSES TO ALLOW ANY WITNESSES OR EVIDENCE FROM HAWAII OR ELSEWHERE ON ELIGIBILITY QUESTION - HEARING TO PROCEED ON JUNE 11th...

A legislative plan in Arizona that would require candidates for president to document their constitutional eligibility to occupy the Oval Office needs only an affirmative vote from the state Senate before it could be advanced to the governor, but the sponsor has told WND she's concerned the GOP leadership will end up protecting President Obama's secrets. State Rep. Judy Burges, R-Skull Valley, told WND today that her bill was approved by the House but now is being "held" by Senate President Robert Burns. She explained Burns told her that in light of the controversy over the state's immigration law -...

Is Bill O'Reilly misinformed or in the tank? Fair and balanced my a**! Why is Obama is spending over $1mil to hide a birth certificate worth less than 20 bucks? Get the real skinny at: Bill O'Reilly was spinning so fast last night (4/15/10) it made me dizzy. Bill was trying to prove Obama was born in the U.S. and purposely neglecting the 'natural born citizen' issue that is the real issue. Bill has been punked by two newspaper birth announcements that are automatically generated after a COLB is issued. Reporters don't investigate each birth---they print what they're given by...

Attorney Philip J. Berg defends Obama birth certificate lawsuits Editor's note: Philip J. Berg, former deputy attorney general of Pennsylvania and an activist attorney who brought a lawsuit challenging the eligibility of Barack Obama to become president of the United States, has written the following reply to Jamie Freeze's Dec. 22 RenewAmerica article "Facts are stubborn things: Obama is a natural-born citizen." Jamie Freeze, a law student, has called any of us who question Soetoro/Obama's citizenship status and constitutional eligibility to serve as U.S. President --- a constitutional right of ours, of course --- incompetent idiots. Ms. Freeze, however, may...

If President Barack Obama could snap his fingers and create 8 million new jobs, would you want him to do it? I would. And certainly the 15 million unemployed Americans would, as well. The good news is that the president can do just that --- implement a policy that opens up 8 million jobs. The bad news is that he won't. Four weeks ago, after the administration announced that the unemployment rate had hit 10.2 percent and 190,000 jobs were lost in October alone, 21 of my colleagues and I wrote to the president to recommend enforcing current immigration laws...

Why are Obama's sycophants losing their war against 'birthers'? Their attacks fizzle when readers/viewers question why Obama doesn't release his long form birth certificate and end the argument. Every day the question remains unanswered, the ranks of 'birthers' increases. Numerous statements, articles and blogs have appeared attacking 'birthers'. Many are meticulously written and use flawless grammar. They don’t appear to be the work of your average blogger. It’s almost impossible to find typos that have slipped by the editor and/or proof reader and one can only guess at the cost involved. When the 'unbirthers' resort to labeling and name calling...

O'Reilly hiding under his desk -- refuses 'birther' time to respond to Lis Wiehl's false statements regarding Obama's birth documentation On the Oct 27, 2009 O'Reilly Factor, Bill O'Reilly sat stupidly while Lis Wiehl made several conspicuously false statements regarding the facts related to Obama's birth documentation. Referring to the 'birthers', Ms. Wiehl stated that "It's this whole movement that says that Obama was elected from a bad, unconstitutional point of view because he was not born in the United States. That's been litigated. Congress investigated. His birth document from Hawaii was shown." First, regarding "That's been litigated" this case...

What are the odds against Obama running for a second term? Ref: http://worth-reading-blog.blogspot.com/2009/10/kenyan-born-obama-all-set-for-us-senate.html Ref: http://www.modernghana.com/news2/189461/1/americans-decide-today-go-obama.html If Obama runs for a second term his opponents will most assuredly investigate his bona fides and he will have to prove he is a 'natural born' citizen. By now, those who ran against him are aware they were punked by a 'Dan Rathered' unsigned 'Certificate of Live Birth' posted on the internet. As Obama spent over $1.5 million hiding his bona fides from the public, it's doubtful that he will willingly produce them. No matter where he was born, Obama obtained his citizenship through...
