"If Putin declares all US citizens are automatically Russian citizens, does that make it impossible for anyone to be President? After all, by act of a foreign country, we would all have dual citizenship..."

Really? Seriously?? What if...what if...what if?

Of course such an act would not be internationally recognized.

Besides...taking your what if....what if then the U.S. Congress declared all the world's population to be U.S. citizens? Then everybody would be eligible within a generation and nobody would be able to "un-declare" that declaration. Ridiculous, in the least.

Bottom line, the United States of America can NOT prevent a child born in this country, from inheriting his/her foreign father's citizenship.

Heck, even your buddies over at fts and his very own campaign web site acknowledge this fact.

Obama was born a subject to the crown of her majesty the Queen of England....NO MATTER WHERE HE WAS BORN!

You have reversed the implication. No country can FORCE someone born in America to be the citizen of another land, or compel allegiance.

The British Nationality Act can say anything it wants, but it has no bearing on US law or Obama’s eligibility. Foreign governments cannot declare someone a citizen of their land when they are born in the USA. They can allow someone to apply to citizenship and, in the case of Kenya, require the US citizenship to be abandoned, but they cannot make someone a dual citizen by fiat.

This is why it’s important to see the evidence. This statement is only true if his father is who he says he is.
