Whoa....FReepers such as you need to step back and take a look at the bigger picture,and take your fingers off the "I read it on the internet" trigger.

FR is becoming an embarrassment due to posts exactly like yours. What a damn shame. Unfortunately, Jim seems to feel no need to reign this idiocy in.....sad.

We're being set up, and swallowing it hook line and sinker.....I'm surprised (and dismayed) that JR hasn't popped wise to this Red Herring yet.

It's been fascinating reading these birther threads, because you get to see how these Internet rumors start from nothing and get repeated in this echo chamber until everyone thinks it's a fact.

A recent example is the Jean Paul Ludwig story, which was incredibly stupid, but passed around as fact for a while.

I read this on the internet. It proves beyond a doubt that Barry Dunham Soettero - aka Barack Hussein Obama is NOT a natural born Citizen:

During the process of developing a new U.S. Constitution Alexander Hamilton submitted a suggested draft for a Constitution on June 18, 1787. He also submitted to the framers a proposal for the qualification requirements in Article II as to the necessary Citizenship status for the office of President and Commander in Chief of the Military.

Alexander Hamilton’s suggested presidential eligibility clause:

"No person shall be eligible to the office of President of the United States unless he be now a Citizen of one of the States, or hereafter be born a Citizen of the United States."

John Jay wrote in a letter to George Washington dated 25 Jul 1787:

"Permit me to hint, whether it would be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the Commander in Chief of the American army shall not be given to nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen. "

Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 of U.S. Constitution as adopted 17 Sep 1787:

"No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States."
