Just the facts:

From hearings attempting to confuse citizens and provide cover for John McCain to run for President. Sponsor of Senate Res 511, Pat Leahy. Every Senator, including Obama, agreed that being “born of American parents” was necessary to being a natural born citizen. They thought you wouldn't be smart enough to notice!

“My assumption and my understanding is that if you are born of American parents, you are naturally a natural-born American citizen,” Chertoff replied. “That is mine, too,” said Leahy.”

From 14th Amendment initiator, Congressman John Bingham, addressing the house in 1866:

I find no fault with the introductory clause [S 61 Bill], which is simply declaratory of what is written in the Constitution, that every human being born within the jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a natural born citizen….

From our greatest Chief Justice John Marshall, in his opinion for The Venus, 12 U.S. 253:

“The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives or indigenes are those born in the country of parents who are citizens. Society not being able to subsist and to perpetuate itself but by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.”

Chief Justice Morrison Waite, from his decision in Minor v. Happersett, the definition cited by Justice Gray to clarify that Wong Kim was not a natural born citizen, and by Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes to explain that Miss Elg was, because her parents were naturalized when she was born in New York:

“The Constitution does not, in words, say who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to ascertain that. At common-law, with the nomenclature of which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners.”

These are the words of our founders and framers. The mysterious background is an intended distraction. It is clear that Obama has no respect for our laws. That is why our founders and framers considered the allegiance of parents so important. Could it be any more clear that Obama's allegiance is to his bitter Muslim, Marxist, Kenyan father? He was never legitimate, and Justice Roberts knew it, as should any reasonably well read constitutional attorney. By taking the oath of a man who was violating the oath as he spoke the words, Roberts was violating his oath to report violations of our laws. Roberts had original jurisdiction from Article III Section II - the president is a "public minister." That is not "good behavior", and he can be removed by the Senate.
