“and yet you are not familiar with why they considered his place of birth in panama as US soil?”

If you would read the WKA decision, you would find the history behind the Senate resolution. But since that resolution applied to someone born overseas, it would only apply to Obama if it was shown Obama was born overseas - in which case Obama would NOT be a NBC.

>>> If you would read the WKA decision,...

My point about the senate resolution was simply that they KNOW the proper definition of NBC, and applied it in their probe/inquiry/examination/ whatever you want to call it with Mcain.
Therefore, any argument regarding what tests should be applied to NBC status should mirror that hearing which examined not just the birth place, but birth parents.

Really, if you think about it, birth place is secondary to citizenship of the parents... because where you were born does not have nearly the level of impact on your loyalties as who raised you does. Birth place really only comes into play because 2 foreigners could gain citizenship, move back to their original country, and then have a child raised outside of the US that is eligible to become president.

Understanding WHY NBC status was imposed by the founders is critical to this discussion. It’s not just a perk of being born here. The founders were trying to prevent EXACTLY what has happened with Obama becoming president.

Obama’s loyalties are NOT to America.
He is NOT a natural born citizen.
His upbringing in Indonesia as a citizen of that country should disqualify him regardless of where he was originally born.
