Obama in a Bind Over Country of Birth
News Blaze ^ | November 25, 2009 | Alan Gray

President Obama is in a fix over his country of birth.

The President started to dig the hole as Senate candidate and now he is president, the hole is getting deeper and uglier, mainly because of his evasive actions. Many Democrat supporters are either ignoring the problem or are vehemently attacking "birthers" who question the President's eligibility.

Republicans are not the only ones concerned about his eligibility. Libertarians, independents, constitutionalists and even democrats are wondering why Obama is fighting so hard to hide his origin.

Unfortunately, Obama dug the hole himself, and like a hole created when a water main leaks and then bursts, the hole is expanding day by day and as it does, the fallout is increasing.

The President and his legal teams have done everything in their power to prevent anyone from accessing his real birth certificate, if he has one, but there are other lines of investigation they cannot block.

During his campaign for the Senate, he and his team touted his Kenyan birth, possibly because it made him more appealing to the voters they needed. Unfortunately, admitting to his birth in Kenya makes him ineligible for the Presidency.

So the question now is, was he really born in Kenya and he told the truth in the Senate campaign, or was he really born in Hawaii, and the Kenya story was a lie, used to deceive Illinois voters.

Obama can't have it both ways. The answer to this question will be interesting!

Of course, he could say the campaign and the reporters all got it wrong, but it will be interesting to follow the trail on this investigation and discover the sources for the AP story that documents the apparent fact that Obama was Kenyan born.

If it wasn't the truth back then, why didn't he stop the campaign using that information and why didn't he make the AP issue a retraction?

Obama supporters who say it is nobody's business, need to take a step back, imagine the president is George Bush and ask themselves the same question they should ask now. "Is it OK for the President to hide his origin and what are his motives for doing it?"

I want there to be a simple, truthful answer to these questions, but I have a strange feeling the answer is not what any of his supporters wants to hear.

From the Washington Times, sometime in April 2008...

“A key witness in a federal probe into passport information stolen from the State Department was fatally shot in front of a District church, the Metropolitan Police Department said yesterday.

Lt. Quarles Harris Jr., 24, who had been cooperating with a federal investigators, was found late Thursday night slumped dead inside a car, in front of the Judah House Praise Baptist Church in Northeast, said Cmdr. Michael Anzallo, head of the department’s Criminal Investigations Division.”

This has been hashed and rehashed on FR so many times. Give it a rest, Obot.

And the people claiming Obama's foreign father makes him ineligible for the presidency have been wrong every time.

It makes you wonder what was in Hillary’s passport files too.

Wikipedia isn't my favorite source, but it has a bunch of other sources linked on the topic.

Who needs Wikipedia?

ANKENY et al v. GOV. of INDIANA is only the most recent court decision that calls absurd the birther claim of Natural Born Citizen as requiring two U.S. citizen parents, --an ad hoc definition created by birthers to be a standard of eligibility that Obama could not possibly meet and one that is found nowhere in the Constitution or any established law.

Tonight is the very first time I read or heard that Obama said he was born in Kenya during his Illinois Senate run.

How about a one million dollar reward for anyone that digs it up and exposes the truth?

In fact, add the rest of Zero’s “cleansed” files to that list.

Probably $50,000 would be enough with more to spread around to others for more interesting and revealing facts.

Obama's first choice for DCI was Brennan.

Well, it didn’t bother the GOP last year—they kept it hushed up as much as BO did— McCain (and his otherwise bigmouthed daughter Princess Krispy Kreme) and the Kennebunkport Kid did an admirable job of staying above the fray—now we’re on the outside looking in as our country is in danger of destruction from within.

It wouldn’t have been a lie or smear or dirty politics (all of which BO has no problem doing to people-and has done his entire career)It was a real issue. But no, we didn’t even bring it up or allow it to be brought up-and no mention of Rev. Wright.... How’d that all work out for us? Now we have Brainless Steele, Bruvahman in Charge, running the GOP—better and better.

Remember, there are 57 states, not 50 states according to Obama.

If your great grandmother became a US Citizen ( naturalized ) then, your grand mother would have been a natural born citizen when she was born... as long as both parents were US citizens at her birth if she was born on US soil.

" That means my father, born in Manhattan in 1948, isn't one either, since he was not born to two natural-born-citizen parents. "

As long as both of his parents were US Citizens, they would have not have to be natural born for him to be a " Natural Born " US Citizen.
You see ? that's where the confusion is, if the child is a child of both foreign born non US Citizen, the child would still be a US Citizen, just not a NATURAL BORN US Citizen.

" If Obama is legit, we owe him an apology. "

One does not owe a apology for seeking the truth.

Has anyone here got any evidence of this statement?

“During his campaign for the Senate, he and his team touted his Kenyan birth...”

If so, please send it to me.

Thanks . . .

You will notice, in the blue box at the top of the page, the campaign identifies Obama as a “native citizen.”

They know, and have known all along that Obama is ineligible.

Obama sits in the Oval Office as the result of a coup d’etat.

Of course they kept it hushed.

Last year, both major party candidates were ineligible.

Obama — Kenyan father — (jus sanguinis)

McCain — born outside the US (Republic of Panama) — (jus solis)
