“Apparently so did McCain for some reason as his lawyer for the campsign works for this law firm”
This is certainly interesting to say the least! Which lawyer? Can you please post his name for the thread record?
Critical mass is fast approaching the usurper in chief.
This is Dr. Fukino who works for the state of Hawaii. She is in charge of the records and she said she saw the BC and he was born in HI so all is well. Just believe her.
She is the person all these “new” FR members are telling us to trust. LOL!.

Amending the Natural Born Citizen law - an attorney’s view
Excerpt:
$$$
07.13.09
This article was written in 2005 by an attorney affiliated with the law firm of Kirkland & Ellis (that has ties to Mr. Obama) promoting the idea of doing away with the “natural born citizen” requirement for serving as president.
Chicago-Kent Law Review
2006
81 Chi.-Kent L. Rev. 275
STUDENT NOTE: AMENDING THE NATURAL BORN CITIZEN REQUIREMENT: GLOBALIZATION AS THE IMPETUS AND THE OBSTACLE
NAME: Sarah P. Herlihy*
BIO: * J.D. Chicago-Kent College of Law, 2005. The author would like to thank Professor Graeme Dinwoodie, and the 2004-2005 Globalization and Its Effect on Domestic Law Seminar Class for their valuable comments and insights on this Note.
SUMMARY:
… “The natural born citizen requirement in Article II of the United States Constitution has been called the “stupidest provision” in the Constitution, “undecidedly un-American,” “blatantly discriminatory,” and the “Constitution’s worst provision. …
Additionally, considering that the Founding Fathers presumably included the natural born citizen clause in the Constitution partly out of fear of foreign subversion, the current stability of the American government and the in-tense media scrutiny of presidential candidates virtually eliminates the possibility of a “foreigner” coming to America, becoming a naturalized citizen, generating enough public support to become president, and somehow using the presidency to directly benefit his homeland. …
Even though this concern is not a legitimate reason to vote against abolishing the natural born citizen clause because many natural born Americans are Muslims, many Americans may oppose a Constitutional amendment because of the possibility that a naturalized citizen would be more likely to be a Muslim, Hindu, or some other religion besides Christian. …
Accordingly, Americans may rely on their belief that globalization is effectively eating away at “America” by lessening the strength of symbols such as the presidency to justify their decision to leave the natural born citizen requirement in place.”

Interesting that the this piece seems to be centered on religion, at least initially, EXCLUDING the Constitutional premise for the inclusion of native citizenship:
PRIMARY ALLEGIANCE TO THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND
HER CONSTITUTION.
So, is the argument being made that denying a presidential candidacy on the basis of native citizenship, even though completely anti-Constitutional, is discriminatory ??
Will the forces of Soros, media, bloggers, pundits, liberal law professors, think tanks and WH operatives be galvanized into another convergence of talking points, bombarding our eyes and ears with the sham argument of national bigotry ?

Of course they did. I do not trust McCain at all.
LOL!! Why bother to go to all the trouble to amend it, which takes years and the consent of the governed, when you can just lie and get around it? /sarcasm off
we need to run someone for Hawaii Governor who will promise to open up the file cabinets upon taking office
This is very troubling. We laugh at Hillary’s “Vast Right Wing Conspiracy” but the Left wing conspiracy is not only vast, it is global. We partied while our country rotted from within...
This article is frightening.

I can tell you why Herlihy was worried about natural born. Her boss.

I can’t believe there isn’t one state in this union that can challenge Obamas self-certification to eligibility. A state would have standing in the courts.

Yes, we all know the path to amending the constitution is to have a crony publish a paper in the super-influential Kent Law review.
Yep..thanks, just found it. I swear..McCain is such a dupe and rino. He went along with this planned obfuscation for the sole reason that he didn’t want his own eligibility challenged. Like most politicians these days..it’s all about them...not our country anymore!
Folks, my 3rd cousin knows a horse doctor in Oregon. Oregon is near Hawaii. The horse doctor says Omoslem is a “natural born citizen.”
Thus, this issue is dead. Omoslem is legit!
What a BS paper. “Some people feel....” “Most Americans fear...” Quoting CNN/Gallup Polls? This is what passes for law review work? God help us.
Tell ya what we can amend the constitution when I can go to school on a “black” scholarship or when England makes me Queen or the Russians install me as dictator ( ooops I mean President). Then we’ll talk
So true. May explain also why McCain suddenly came from out of the race to number one spot on the ticket.
“Will the forces of Soros, media, bloggers, pundits, liberal law professors, think tanks and WH operatives be galvanized into another convergence of talking points, bombarding our eyes and ears with the sham argument of national bigotry..”
Of course. It has already started anew this past week in various liberal ‘opinion’ pieces. This goes way beyond our current usurper in chief and if they are successful in doing this to our country down the road..we might as well all leave for distant shores because the United States will never be ‘united’ again.
They can; but they are being bullied. Maybe Judge Carter will really take up the reins on this.
