What Trump said at the end is what matters. He said that Hillary Clinton brought up the issue in 2008 and he settled it in 2011. He went on to say that Obama was born in the USA. Period. (end of conversation) See: Obama Birth Certificate Released By White House
Now, the only people talking about Obama (in the media) not being born in the USA will be Hitlery and the LSM.
The brilliance of his move was that he's effectively taken this issue off the table for discussion. If Hitlery or the LSM bring it up again, he can call them birthers.
Yes, yes, I know that Obama was not born in the USA and should not have been elected President, but that was then. This is now.
In the end, Trump has removed this as a talking-point from the DNC and LSM for the remainder of this election cycle. (Imagine playing chess and toppling another knight or rook, further crippling your opponent's ability to attack/counter-attack -- as has been said, Trump is playing 3D Chess and his opponents are playing tiddly-winks)
If his father is who he claims, a Kenyan national and at the time, a British subject, then Obama is not a natural born citizen, regardless of where he was born.
He could have been born in Canada and be as eligible as Ted Cruz, NOT eligible.
The Kenyanesian Usurpation was brought to you by BOTH parties.
The Constitution says natural born citizen.
That means one who is naturally an American because they couldn’t be anything else, born here of citizen parents.
Everyone in DC wanted that changed without the hassle of amending the Constitution.
The Senate passed a resolution declaring McCain a natural born citizen because he had TWO citizen parents, even though he was born in Panama.
Then Obama runs and wins based on just being born here, even though he told us on his website he was born a British subject.
So the standard went from born here of citizen parents to just TWO citizen parents to just being born here in one election cycle without amending the Constitution.
This was done intentionally because Rubio (no citizen parents), Cruz (foreign birth, one citizen parent), Jindal (no citizen parents), and Haley (no citizen parents) were all ineligible and the future of the GOP.
The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because they all cooperated in the violation of the Constitution.
Now YOUR explanation, That makes perfect sense.
Thanks for laying it out like that - I appreciate it.
