Howard Dean: Scott Walker Says Obama Born In Kenya
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/23/2015 6:35:07 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

How unhinged has Howard Dean become? So bad that an MSNBC host had to gently walk him back off the ledge.

On Chris Hayes' MSNBC show tonight, Dean claimed that Scott Walker says Barack Obama was "born in Kenya." It took Hayes two attempts to break through Dean's blather, but eventually he was able to politely point out: "I should note, you mention the Kenya thing, he has not been asked that."

2008 primary candidates Hillary and Bill had pics of Obama
in Muslim dress---but Uncle Teddy warned them not to use them.

Obama's half-brother Malik, a Kenyan national, holds
photo of Obama in Muslim dress, worn on O's visit to Kenya.

” If Zero produced a REAL birth certificate, we could get this cleared up.”

You won’t get it. That would open him up to credit fraud and identity fraud, among OTHER things.

>> “Did you know that a mexican born here is a US citizen?” << Not so if his parents are not here under a visa. that requirement is a part of the 14th amendment. Must be here under the authority of the US Government for the kid to have citizenship.

I am going to say this once to all the people who would like to believe this is correct--it isn't; it is pure wishful thinking.

The possibility exists that you get a Congress which might enact legislation under the jurisdiction clause of the 14th Amendment and you might also get a Supreme Court which might uphold something like that but those are unlikely prayed fors.

Absent a change in the legislative and judicial environment, the Supreme Court at presently constituted is going to hold that any person born in the geographical territory of the United States is a citizen.

That is the 5 year after age 14 rule — well known to nobody. Where, sir, did you find that baloney? Did you know that a mexican born here is a US citizen? Doesn’t matter if he goes back to mexico. He is unfortunately a citizen of the USA and he cannot lose that by world travels. Where do you get this “5 year rule”? enlighten us.

Well first thing is you need a little help from a real lawyer who knows how to do real legal research and he needs to do it either in a real Law Library or have access to one of the more complete research engines.

You need to get back to the provisions of the United States Code in 1961 where you find that provision. You then need to see the modifications which tell you that the modifications apply only to people who are born after the effective date specified for the modifications.

To do all that you also need the footnotes in the Annotated code or you need to get to the actual enrolled legislation where you find the effective date clauses.

Not really easy to do but real lawyers can show you how to do this stuff.

My answer to your proposition about the "mexican" is above.

"Now I don't advocate that Governor Walker go around telling people Barry was born in Kenya..."

Fair enough. How about advocating that he goes around reminding people that Barry himself told people he was born in Kenya, time after time after time?

That's a very good idea. Maybe he should say something like "I have no idea where he was born; but I have heard he went around political gatherings in the 1990's telling anyone who wanted to listen that he was born in Kenya."

That is too bad. Of Course ,that makes no difference. If he was born in Kenya ,there was no way he could be President because he was not born on our soil.

The Kenyan Parliament agrees and had it documented in their minutes.

Absolutely! It amazes me how many people just don’t care where he was born, don’t care if he’s unqualified, don’t care if such a tremendous fraud might have been perpetrated on the American people. Even a lot of Republicans don’t care.

Well David, obviously you have never read the text of the 14th.

.
There is much “wishful thinking” visible in your post..

Many thanks for your concise and easy to read explanations of the citizenship rules.
I have a question on this part of your post

..”Now I don’t advocate that Governor Walker go around telling people Barry was born in Kenya but it is important as a lawyer’s issue at this point that the best evidence is that he was in fact born in Mombasa Kenya at the Coast Provincial General Hospital.”

; what evidence is there for it, was it eyewitnesses to documents, statements, or what?

Ping to this part of David’s post, and question concerning it:

Were there eyewitnesses’ testimony/affidavits to either them having seen the document itself, or having heard statements that it existed?

No. You kind of miss the point.

As to Barry, the guy presently in the White House, there is no documentary or other physical evidence.

Point is that his oral statements; and the campaign document posted above in #94 are evidence--they are what lawyers call statements against interest by a party; when the party makes a statement tending to prove facts that contradict his position (his current position being that he is eligible to hold the office of President under Article II Section 1, because he was born in the United States) those statements themselves are evidence.

In this case, those statements are the only evidence of his place of birth (the birth certificates they have published are digital fakes; there is no evidence to support the position of Hawaii Dept of Health). Thus from the lawyers perspective, those statements are the best evidence of his place of birth--Kenya.

In fact, I do not believe he was born in Kenya.

But when there is an ultimate legal contest over the issue which will happen at some point, those statements will put the burden of proving where he was in fact born on Barry (which I believe was outside the United States under circumstances in which he did not become a citizen at the time of his birth thus proving his ineligibility to hold the office of President).
