Thanks for reciting the argument, but it simply does not apply.

Barack Obama only had one parent. His mother was an unmarried U.S. Citizen resident in Hawaii and travelling abroad when he was born.

The rule I cited is that a single mother bearing a child need only have been a resident of the U.S. for a year before bringing forth. The age and five-year residency requirements don't apply to her and her son because she was single and her child illegitimate.

Intimations of virgin birth aside, the Obamessiah indeed had two parents, only one of whom was a U.S. citizen. The fact that his parents were not legally married does not change this fact.

Since is father was not a citizen of the United States the Law between 1952 and 1986 states that the mother had to reside in the United States at least 10 years and Hawaii was a territory. Plus the mother married an Indonesian citizen and he adopted Barack Obama which made him a citizen of Indonesia. You can’t have duel citizenship’s in the United States. He automatically forfeited his U.S. Citizenship.

Very interesting commentary back and forth. I think either way, this truth should be made available to the American public. Could it actually generate sympathy for hussein? Quite possibly, in some circle, however with all of the untruths surrounding this man's life, the American public deserves to at least know what and where this guy is from.

If your point is correct then why not just come out with the birth certificate and all this goes away.
