“African” is a race? Does that mean we’re all one race, since the human species probably originated in Africa?
“can you be born into dual citizenship ?”
Probably. All I know is anyone born on American soil is an American citizen.
You are correct.
As far as Free Republic goes, anyway, the only thing "it's about" is whether Obama is eligible to serve as president.
Nobody here disputes that he's an American citizen. Nobody here cares about manipulating anyone into believing he's not a US citizen.
The Washington Post Debunks Smears, Confirms Baracks Citizenship
The truth: Sen. Barack Obama, born in Hawaii, is a Christian family man with a track record of public service.
FactCheck.org Clarifies Baracks Citizenship
When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdoms dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.s children.
Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.
So, why did you (what-ever-your-name-is) mess with your Certificate of Live Birth?
You are correct.
I DIDN'T SAY THAT!
that was a direct quote from the obama website.
There are NO smears! The COLB has been shown to have been tampered with. All we are asking is, WHY WOULD HE DO THAT!?
Hell, anymore isnt anybody?

This new material at “Fight the Smears” displays arrogance, hubris and bad faith, in my opinion. It is the Senators reaction to Phillip Bergs Law Suit (next item), and, basically, it amounts to an open admission of mens rea. He is flaunting his bad faith and in so doing destroys his own case.
Obama’s website also contains the bogus Certificate of Live Birth, that has been labeled, “Barack Obamas Official Birth Certificate.”
The “Certificate of Live Birth” is NOT a birth certificate.

If he can’t produce a Birth Certificate then he isn’t a natural born citizen.
His sister Maya was born in Djakarta, Indonesian. She has a Hawaiian Certificate of Live Birth (COLB) but that doesn’t mean she is eligible to be President.
SO - THIS IS REAL SIMPLE. PRODUCE THE DAMN BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
Not to do so screams that he isn’t a natural born citizen.
But, what was the practice and terms used in Hawaii at that time is important. If none of the other birth certificates of black persons show their parents' race as "African" or their country of origin other than the actual race of the ancestory, and only Obama's certificate has this word on it, that would help the claim that his certificate is a fraud. Why would Obama's father's race be defined differently from all others of similar ethnic heritage who parented a black child in Hawaii at that time.
Of course, the thing that makes this most suspicious is that referring to a black person in those days we did not use the term "black" or "African," In the early 60's Americans were still using the term "Negro," or "Negroid." Calling a person an African-American was a movement started later when it became politically incorrect to say "Negro" the term "black" was substituted and remained that way until years later when "African-American" became the term used.
The U.S. doesn’t recognize “dual” citizenship.
“The U.S. doesnt recognize ‘dual’ citizenship.”
Not so. If you are born a citizen of the U.S. and one or more other coutries, or if you assume the citizenship of another country without renouncing U.S. citizenship, our government allows you dual citizenship for your entire life.
Even if Obama wasn’t born on U.S. soil (and that’s a big “if”), wasn’t his mother a U.S. citizen? That would also make Barrack a natural-born citizen.
Um I hate to be a spoilsport here, but its my understanding that the ONLY person who will EVER have access to an Original Birth Certificate, a CERTIFIED BO, is the person himself. If you doubt this, just talk to a number of adoptees who have been FORBIDDEN access to their own OBC because a lot of states use the right to privacy stipulation of Roe v Wade to prevent unauthorized access. If adoptees have to jump through hoops and go through agony just to get their own BO, why are we paying attention to a document that could very well be forged, but not for the reasons you think. I have trouble believing this particular meme about Obamanation, not because I think he’s an American citizen but because the origins of this particular ‘proof’ itself is suspect. I think people need to drop this and find a more valid way of getting the truth about Obama out. There is more validity in claiming he is a full-fledged Muslim than there is in saying this ‘certificate’ is the real deal....

...And it comes down to this
Obama and Ayers together controlled $160 mil in cash. Unfortunately the only ultimate beneficiaries from all this cash ended up being their political friends.
Why do they continue to post that COLB wit hthe cert number blacked out ( which has been shown to be fake ). Didn’t his campaign release the COLB to Factcheck with the cert number showing ? Of course on the Factcheck site they only took pics of it with a digital camera. They claim it is the same one that they are still posting ( the one with the cert number blacked out ). Why not have a digital scan of the COLB with the number not blacked out. Is it because it would show the two are not the same and that the latest one would show more details of how it was altered ? All this still begs the question, why not post a scan of a vault certified birth certificate in the first place ? Is it because it doesn’t exist ?
