Obama's Achilles heel - Natural Born Citizenship

... What is a Natural Born Citizen? ...

“§ 212. Citizens and natives. The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights. The society is supposed to desire this, in consequence of what it owes to its own preservation; and it is presumed, as matter of course, that each citizen, on entering into society, reserves to his children the right of becoming members of it. The country of the fathers is therefore that of the children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent. We shall soon see whether, on their coming to the years of discretion, they may renounce their right, and what they owe to the society in which they were born. I say, that, in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth, and not his country. -Emer Vattel (English language version, “Law of Nations” (1797) Book I, c.19, § 212 http://www.constitution.org/vattel/vattel.htm http://home.earthlink.net/~dybel/Documents/LawOfNations,Vattel.htm#I-%C2%A7212

Who is Emer Vattel? He wrote the book "Law of Nations" which was originally published in France in 1758. ...

My point is that today’s State Department says exactly what the Founders’ intentions were. Some things have not changed.

It is curious that the obamanoids are now playing the game of ‘oh, the long form will end the controversy’. That is of course false since the issue of Barry using Indonesian or Kenayan citizenship as an adult would disqualify himself from natural born American citizen status. Also, a couple of the noids are trying to make a race baiting with the notion of Malcolm X as possible father. One of the two has been exposed as a racist, previously. [BTW, well done, m’Lady! Great piece of writing.]

Oh gosh no, I have published something like 70 articles.

I am a housewife who started back to school and found I really had a talent for writing. I wrote a paper for English 101 that I got included in American Military University’s Great student Essays section ( I posted it here as well and its at Examiner too I changed the name there slightly if I remember correctly, its on my profile page somewhere The FR one is here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2198595/posts )and after seeing an advertisement for writers at Examiner, I forwarded them the paper as part of my application process with them. I got the job and the rest is history.

Thank you good sir!

This has been a very effective smoke-screen. But its dropped now, the cat is out of the bag, the rats have jumped ship, and the truth of Obama is being revealed. If you couple this information with the article I link here it gets out of hand insanely scary... this gives me the serious heebie jeebies.

Being called a fool by the peddlers of this stuff is a compliment. Thank you.

As a window into sociological phenomena, these threads are fascinating. I love the descendant of Irish kings who has all the secret Adams’ papers. But I'm sure that will get topped before all is said and done. Again, when people have wholly invested themselves in a proposition whose appeal satisfies intense emotional, not factual, needs, the sky is the limit.

And this stuff calls itself conservative. Wow.

“His COLB does NOT match Hawaiian records.”

But what leads you to conclude this as the records have not been made public?

“In fact, they haven’t even admitted to releasing ANY BC info to him (short or long form) EVER, since 1961 !”

And while the state of Hawaii hasn’t explicitly said, at least to my knowledge, that they had issued him that particular COLB nor have they denied it. A lack of denial actually says more about the veracity of the COLB than a lack of admission. Especially if the COLB contains false information.

Yes and the founders relied upon many of his coceptions in their consruction of the constitution. That can be established at trial as part of the founding dicta upon which the founders framed the constitution.

It’s another thread. Sorry for the mixed metaphor. I just got a huge kick out of that one.

Obama is an inveterate liar, just about sociopathic in that regard, the WORST that I have ever seen in ANY (alleged)president. He has lied, in public speechs and with the written word on MULTIPLE occasions about his family history. We cant take his unverified word for ANYTHING. We MUST establish his paternity with corroborative documentary evidence. As much as I loath this lying marxist demagogue, we MUST properly establish our legal and constitutional case to rid ourselves of this presidential horror.

It’s our duty as Americans really. I am a messenger if anything. There are a lot of people doing some heavy lifting and research right now. I just want people to know what it is they are doing and finding!
