Unlike you trolls, we true American patriots prefer to live in a country of laws that were written with the blood of our forefathers

You just missed the /sarc tag right?

Becaue Obama pulled old Chet’s trick out of the same playbook.

No, he never denied his father was Irish. He just lied his butt off about the where, when, and how his father naturalized.

Arthur lied about his mother’s time in Canada.  He lied about his father’s time in Canada.  He lied about his father’s age plus where and when he got off the boat from Ireland.  By obscuring his parents’ personal history he curtailed the possibility that anybody might discover he was born many years before his father had naturalized.

“You think folks should freak out over something that happened in the 1880s?

Become indignant about it? Stomp their feet?”

Considering it has been repeated in 2008, HELL YES!

prefer to live in a country of laws

So you reckon the "law" should go after some dude who has been dead a hundred years?

Yeah, that's a hell of a plan. Let me know how that works out for you.

Very constructive. I'll bet it helps us all out a lot.

This is how you debate, by calling yourself a "patriot" and those who don't agree "trolls"?

Yep, you've got my attention now! I'll surely consider anything you say as important!

LOL

The evidence is beyond argument and is like a growing mountain.

Still he’s not saying what particular denomination. If he was a member of White’s church isn’t that an independent church, not affiliated with any denomination? Just wondering.

His Father was naturalized in the 1880’s

More troll/obot spin because they just can not accept the facts that have been out there for over 2 years now:

Chester Arthur was a British citizen/subject by virtue of his father not having naturalized as a United States citizen until Chester Arthur was almost 14 years old:

HISTORICAL BREAKTHROUGH – PROOF: CHESTER ARTHUR CONCEALED HE WAS A BRITISH SUBJECT AT BIRTH
http://naturalborncitizen.wordpress.com/2008/12/06/urgent-historical-breakthrough-proof-chester-arthur-concealed-he-was-a-british-subject-at-birth/

Excerpts:

From “Gentleman Boss”, page 202 and 203:

“…Hinman was hired, apparently by democrats, to explore rumors that Arthur had been born in a foreign country, was not a natural-born citizen of the United States, and was thus, by the Constitution, ineligible for the vice-presidency. By mid-August, Hinman was claiming that Arthur was born in Ireland and had been brought to the United States by his father when he was fourteen. Arthur denied the charge and said that his mother was a New Englander who had never left her native country — a statement every member of the Arthur family knew was untrue.”

William Arthur didn’t come to the United States until sometime between March 1822 – when his first child was born in Dunham, Canada – and March 1824 – when his second child was born in Burlington, Vermont. The youngest he could have been when he came to Vermont was 26.

On August 16, 1880 Chester Arthur told the Brooklyn Eagle newspaper that at the time of his birth, his father was forty years old. Another blatant lie. His father would have been only thirty-three years old when Chester was born.

In that same article he lied that his father settled in Vermont and reiterated the lie that William came here at the age of eighteen. This age discrepancy was exposed in the August 19, 1880 edition of the Brooklyn Eagle in an article written by Hinman .

It was very convenient for Arthur that Hinman kept the focus on the extraordinary and false claim – that Arthur was born abroad – while the more subtle and true eligibility issue stayed hidden in plain site.

Ps, IOW, I don’t think that just because he didn’t go to a church to receive ashes doesn’t mean he’s not a Christian as he says he is, is all I’m saying.

In the Brooklyn Eagle newspaper, an article interviewing
http://naturalborncitizen.wordpress.com/2008/12/06/urgent-historical-breakthrough-proof-chester-arthur-concealed-he-was-a-british-subject-at-birth/

Chester Arthur about Hinman’s accusations was published on August 13, 1880. In that article, Chester Arthur defended himself as follows:

“My father, the late Rev. William Arthur, D.D., was of Scotch blood, and was a native of the North of Ireland. He came to this country when he was eighteen years of age, and resided here several years before he was married.”

His Father was naturalized in the 1880’s, but he wasn’t when Arthur was born. That was known even in that day.

William Arthur was naturalized on August 31, 1843. He died in 1875. Because Chester lied about practically everything surrounding his father's emmigration to the U.S. and William was already dead when Chester's NBC status was questioned, the public did not know when William naturalized. Modern biographers on Chester have not uncovered a single 1880's news item referencing the fact that William naturalized some 14 years after Chester's birth.

So Chester Arthur was not eligible for the Presidency

That is correct. Chester Arthur was born Oct 5, 1829. The father of Chester Alan Arthur was born in Ireland and didn't naturalize as a US Citizen until 1843.

"But they left it in the parlance of English Common Law, not in the language of Vattel."

So what your saying, then, is that:

1. Arnold Schwarzenegger is POTUS eligible?

and

2. John Bingham, and the rest of his colleagues were wrong?

Let's suppose your county sheriff is plowing up the town's tomato patch.

Birthers will piss and moan about how he's not qualified to
operate that tractor or that it's a stolen tractor and he shouldn't be on it.

Meanwhile, he continues plowing up the tomato patch.

Normal people will work on voting the sucker OUT.
This year's tomato patch is hosed, he's already plowed it up.

Crying about his tractor operator qualifications is moot.

Unfortunately, it all only matters to those of us who respect the Constitution and laws of this great country. There is a rapidly growing segment of society who could care less. We must never accede to them.

Now, what about in vitro fertilization, homosexual “parents” of children, etc.
