If Obama isn’t eligible, than neither is McCain.

He needs to be beaten on substance (he doesn’t have any) rather than a technicality. Nobody cares about the technicality anyway.

Nice catch. This newspaper announcement is not a government document. It essentially proves nothing by itself. If the Obama birth certificate is near this date, perhaps it buttresses the document in public opinion. Again, it essentially means nothing. It could have very easily been another Obama. We don’t know.

***The MSM doesn’t, but if there are lawsuits filed in individual states to remove him from the ballot due to ineligibility, it will become a big deal.

The hospital where John McCain was born was located on U.S. territory.

To be eligible one must be born within the physical boundaries of the United States or its territories.

That does not follow. Both his parents were natural born US citizens and his father was stationed in the Canal Zone pursuant to military orders - Dad was a naval officer. The citizenship laws at the time considered him to be a ‘natural born’ US citizen. The same is true today.

Neither one is eligible in my book because they both have an ego and temperament problem and are either full-blown or latent socialists.

I would urge ALL Freepers to hold your water on this one as I suspect that this is yet another "red herring" to get conservatives off on a tangent on, as was the "Michelle calls Caucasians 'whitey' on video."

That was a lie started by someone in either the DNC or Obama campaign (ever heard of "dirty tricks" anyone???)

We have far, far too many substantive issues to run against this "empty Chairman Mao suit" on without chasing down his birth certificate.

In the black community they don't care, he could have been born in Cuba, Kenya or Russia and it doesn't matter - he's black and that's all that counts!!!!!

Go after Obama on the fact that he has served a total of 143 days in the U.S. Senate, never sponsored ANY legislation, never worked on anything in Chicago and his "community organizer" job was that of a paid worker for anti-American groups in the area!!!!

He and the lovely Michelle preach one tune to their own community, i.e. "teach your children to speak...... when they don't); volunteer after college......when neither did; do without for the betterment of your community.....when neither of them ever did"; and on and on.

No, I am not behind the times. An assertion was made that you have to be born in the US (or its territories) to be a "natural born" citizen.

No you don't. All you need is a parent with US citizenship. You do that and you are a citizen by birth.

I’m continually amazed that this kind of rhetoric is still bouncing around in cyberspace.

If either candidate wasn’t eligible because of supposed citizenship questions … it would be front-page news. I’m sure that every lawyer worth his salt has investigated these questions, and if there were any true doubts about this question, lawsuits would be flying.

I agree 100%.

Nobody cares about the technicality anyway.

I totally disagree.

In the last month or so, as everyone has been discussing this and debating the relative merits of .jpegs and Photoshop, Obama raised almost twice what McCain did.

I would say that this subject has served Obama well.

Dont know if there is a birth cert or not
Could be wild goose chase
I dont like his ideas - I dont like his associates - I dont trust him - I think he is dangerous for America
He came fast, out of nowhere
He is a well funded puppet

There are plenty of facts to go after him on

***It sounds like you haven’t been following the Obama Birth Certificate Forgery thing. The document that Obama’s campaign put up on his own website is a forgery. It led to questions of whether he really was born in Hawaii and if he’s eligible to be president.

It’s probably just that he was ashamed of being an illegitimate bastard, which means this whole thing would just go away, no big deal.

Looks like the hospital released info that used to be in every paper. There would be a heading at the top - ABC General Hospital - and then a list of all births for that week, parents names, boy or girl and date. For years, hospitals did it routinely, before HIPAA. Then they used to ask if they wanted it published. The hospital I worked at stopped doing it when a local woman found a new mom, found her home and killed both parents, while kidnapping the newborn baby, back in 1986.

You would think that us winning the surge would be front page news, you would think McCain making a major campaign stop would be front page news, you would think that many of the President’s major addresses would be front page news. What else do you think?

“He needs to be beaten on substance (he doesn’t have any) rather than a technicality.”

IF it could be proven he’s ineligible, that’s much more than a “technicality.”
