“In the opinion of the court Ark was declared a native born citizen equal to that of natural born citizens.”

Patently false!

There exist only three types of citizenship in the statutes: native born; naturalized; and citizenship-by-statute. All three have equal rights.

Natural Born Citizenship exists ONLY in Article II of the U.S. Constitution as a requirement to be eligible for the Presidency.

A Natural Born Citizen is born in a nation of citizen parents. Chief Justice Marshal said it in 1814, and he was one of the Founders. Congressman John Bingham, who wrote the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, read the above definition into the Congressional Record in 1866.

No one has the ‘right’ to be President. So, there is no unfairness or discrimination concerned in this matter - it was written into the Constitution by our Founders to protect the United States from usurpers without allegience to our system of government.

Satin Doll, I do believe that there is actually only two types of citizenship.

1. Natural born : both parents U.S. Citizens
2. Naturalized: any citizen granted citizenship by statue( immigration law)
a. immigrants who have naturalized
b. native born to immigrants who are not yet citizens
c. native born to one parent who is a citizen and the
other a foreign national
Under the current laws obama would be a native born(assuming that he was born in Hawaii) naturalized citizen and ineligible to be President. obama knows this , that is the reason he is surpressing all his birth information.
If a person could get a CERTIFIED copy of his BIRTH CERTIFICATE into court he could be removed from office.

For your consideration, the following is from the Wong Kim Ark decision:
“[An alien parent’s] allegiance to the United States is direct and immediate, and, although but local and temporary, continuing only so long as he remains within our territory, is yet, in the words of Lord Coke in Calvin’s Case, 7 Coke, 6a, ’strong enough to make a natural subject, for, if he hath issue here, that issue is a natural-born subject’

“Subject’ and ‘citizen’ are, in a degree, convertible terms as applied to natives; and though the term ‘citizen’ seems to be appropriate to republican freemen, yet we are, equally with the inhabitants of all other
countries, ’subjects,’ for we are equally bound by allegiance and subjection to the government and law of the land.’”
