Everyone should handle this usurper this way. When you are not really a President why should you be treated like a POTUS. Give Parnell a big hand!

There are no smoke and mirrors required to uphold the law of the land as it has been applied for the past 220 years. Our founding fathers felt so strongly about the Natural Born clause, that they wrote the a grandfather clause that allowed themselves to be exempt. If they wanted the term “Natural Born” to exclude citizens based not only on their birthplace, but the birthplace of BOTH their parents, then they would have written it like that; which they DID NOT. Your interpretation (ie OPINION) does not make it fact. How the law has been applied is what I base my judgement upon. You, on the other hand, only have conjecture and the word “communist” in your severely-lacking arsenal. Again, no third type of citizenship exists. Only someone like you and other idiot birthers think otherwise.

President Woodrow Wilson's mother was born in England. Chester Arthur's father was born in Ireland. What about them? By your very flawed logic, they should have never been allowed into office. Mitt Romney's dad was born in Mexico. I never heard anyone question his eligibility to run. Why not? Because you are peddling a load of garbage and you know it.

If you love America as much as you type you do, why would you want this Great Capitalistic World Leader of a country to fall into Communist hands (that you say you are not one of) and destroy Capitalism and embrace Communism.

Explain what the Natural Born American Citizen requirement was to our Founding Fathers and what they intended to gain from this requirement as they founded our new and great Country. Who was this requirement supposed to exclude, and why?

Second, I don't need to lie. The quotes are there for a reason. Read these two and keep weeping…

Aetna Life Ins. Co. v. Haworth, 300 U. S. 227), declared Miss Elg “to be a natural born citizen of the United States,” and we think that the decree should include the Secretary of State as well as the other defendants.

Mandoli v. Acheson, 344 U.S. 133 (1952)
Joseph Mandoli was a dual US/Italian citizen by birth (born in the US to Italian parents). He left the US as an infant and moved to Italy with his parents. When he sought to return to the US in 1937, his claim to US citizenship was rejected because he had failed to return promptly to the US upon reaching the age of majority, and also because he had served briefly in the Italian army in 1931.

The Supreme Court ruled that the law, as it then stood, did not permit natural-born US citizens to be stripped of US citizenship for failing to return to the US upon reaching adulthood.

The court did not base its ruling in this case on any overarching constitutional arguments. Rather, it examined the legislative history of the portions of US citizenship law, and concluded that Congress had consciously chosen to make these provisions applicable only to naturalized US citizens (see Rogers v. Bellei below).

In particular, the court noted that although US law at that time required certain US citizens with childhood dual citizenship (such as those born abroad to American parents) to make a specific “election” of US citizenship (i.e., a declaration of allegiance followed by a return to the US) upon reaching adulthood, no such requirement applied to a person who had US citizenship on account of having been born in the US. Lower courts had apparently interpreted the Supreme Court's earlier decision in Perkins v. Elg as imposing such an “election” requirement quite broadly.

The court also decided that Mandoli's foreign military service did not warrant loss of his US citizenship because, under Mussolini's Fascist government, he really had had no choice but to join the Italian army.

Dean Acheson (Dean was his first name, not a title) was Secretary of State during Truman's second term as President.

My worst shot is still better than what you can throw at me any day of the week. The 14th Amendment of our Constitution states the following: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

See how there are only two types of citizenship listed and defined? Born or Naturalized. That's it. There is no third type of citizenship. Obama is not a Naturalized citizen. He was born and always has been a natural-born citizen. Get over it.

Perkins v. Elg, 307 U.S. 325 (1939): The U.S. Supreme Court concluded that Marie Elizabeth Elg, who was born in the United States of Swedish parents naturalized in the United States, had not lost her birthright U.S. citizenship because of her removal during minority to Sweden and was entitled to all the rights and privileges of that U.S. citizenship. In this case, the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed the decree that declared Elg “to be a natural born citizen of the United States.”

Now that was a nice try and might convince a Obot, but the Supreme Court never said Elg was a Natural Born Citizen of the United States. That was an opinion and never was included in the final decision. Why do “you lie”?

Now wanna play? Why did the founding fathers follow our first Supreme Court Justice's lead and add the language John Jay wrote to George Washington about, concerning a Commander in Chief should have to be Natural Born? No one was Natural Born back in 1787 and no one would be Natural Born and old enough to become POTUS for over 35 tears. So, what did the founding fathers want to keep out of power? British citizens that had British citizen parents, and allegiance to a foreign power not the United States! That is exactly what we have sleeping in our White House today. What else could the founding fathers in all their wisdom have intended? Come on. hit me with your best shot!

Minor v. Happersett, 88 U.S. 162 (1874): In this case decided after the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, the Court stated (pp. 167–68):
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. —Some authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. –As to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first. For the purposes of this case it is not necessary to solve these doubts. It is sufficient for everything we have now to consider that all children born of citizen parents within the jurisdiction are themselves citizens.—

Perkins v. Elg, 307 U.S. 325 (1939): The U.S. Supreme Court concluded that Marie Elizabeth Elg, who was born in the United States of Swedish parents naturalized in the United States, had not lost her birthright U.S. citizenship because of her removal during minority to Sweden and was entitled to all the rights and privileges of that U.S. citizenship. In this case, the U.S. Supreme Court affirmed the decree that declared Elg “to be a natural born citizen of the United States.”

Several United States District Courts have ruled that private citizens do not have standing to challenge the eligibility of candidates to appear on a presidential election ballot.[22] Alternatively, there is a statutory method by which the eligibility of the President-elect to take office may be challenged in Congress.[23]

Please try to pay attention. I'm thinking the Thorazine probably makes it hard for you to concentrate, but I'll give it another shot for those whose brains are actually open to facts. There IS a difference between a NATURALIZED citizen and a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN, but they are the only only two types. There is no third category; which is the one you and Ms. Taitz are trying to make up for President Obama to fall under. The Terminator falls into the naturalized citizen category. President Obama is a Natural Born citizen. End of story.
