Orly Taitz: Dismissal of Other Birther Suits Helps Me

By
Friday, November 13, 2009 at 11:02 am

Orly Taitz, who really should be worrying about the final judgment ordering the U.S. Attorney to collect $20,000 from her, has filed a new sheaf of nonsense arguing that the long-awaited dismissal of Phil Berg’s birther lawsuit proves that her lawsuits really have legs.

The plaintiff  in Berg was seeking Declaratory and Injunctive Relief  under Article 2 Section 1 Natural Born Citizen and under 42 USC §1983, seeking determination of  eligibility for presidency of Barack Husein Obama. In his opinion judge Sloviter finds that though the election is over, the court has jurisdiction to hear it as it “fits squarely” as an issue “capable of repetition yet evading review”.Merle v US, 351, 3d 92,94 (3d Cir 2003)  Based on this argument there is Article 3 jurisdiction to hear the case as long as the plaintiff can show standing with specialized injury.

While Berg’s holding finds that a regular voter does not have standing, Presidential and vice presidential candidates such as plaintiffs Ambassador Alan Keyes and Gail Lightfoot have standing.

Judge Sloviter proceeds by arguing that both parties with actual and imminent injuries would have standing in this case. Nearly 40 plaintiffs in this case are members of the military. A number of them are either active military or in active reserves. For example plaintiff  Lita Lott is in active drilling reserves. Within only a few days of notice she will be required to leave her family behind and deploy, this can happen any day. This satisfies the imminent injury prong for the purpose of standing.

In other words, she’s sticking to the discredited and ridiculous arguments that have been laughed out of courtrooms on both coasts. The more interesting question right now is how her confrontation with the U.S. Attorney is going to go.

This came directly from Orly's website and she actually filed it in Judge Carter's court this morning according to her. It's extremely difficult to read on her website since the items she copies and pastes into her blog entries won't format properly once posted.

Orly’s argument:

The plaintiff in Berg was seeking Declaratory and Injunctive Relief under Article 2 Section 1 Natural Born Citizen and under 42 USC §1983, seeking determination of eligibility for presidency of Barack Husein Obama. In his opinion judge Sloviter finds that though the election is over, the court has jurisdiction to hear it as it “fits squarely” as an issue “capable of repetition yet evading review”.Merle v US, 351, 3d 92,94 (3d Cir 2003) Based on this argument there is Article 3 jurisdiction to hear the case as long as the plaintiff can show standing with specialized injury.

—– — — – - –

The footnote from the Berg decision referenced above:

Although the defendants argue that this point is moot because the election is over, we consider the issue because “[t]his controversy, like most election cases, fits squarely within the ‘capable of repetition yet evading review’ exception to the mootness doctrine.” Merle v. United States, 351 F.3d 92, 94 (3d Cir. 2003).

— — —

The problem is, Carter never ruled that any of the claims were moot. He dismissed them based on other considerations.

Has a case been dismissed on merits? No. Cases have been dismissed on issues of jurisdiction and standing. I think Orly Taitz, erred in her wide range of targets. Had she focused on Obama, alone then DOJ might not be in play, and other branches and agencies might have been more able to cooperate. A writ of quo warranto, filed in the DC District Court DCDC, is needed, and may be in the mill, by Strunk. Maybe a 3-judge panel and a special prosecutor, is needed. Look for the case USA v. OBAMA on the calendar at DCDC.

OPINION – FOR PUBLICATION

Read:

Note: Failed to state a claim. See Footnote 14-15
———
This is good since it means the SCOTUS will need to redefine in the USA what is a native, citizen, or NBC, and those eligible to be POTUS.

The Indiana ruling is great news for those who advocate illegal immigration, and the dismantling of the US borders, so all of the World's poor and illiterate, can come and live in the USA, drink the water, suckle tax teat, and get a free education and lighting in their airconditioned homes.

Thank you USA tax payers, now work hard, and pay more taxes, until the Middle-Class disappears. Turn the USA into a wealthy upper-class and a poverty lower caste, then watch how the wealthy fly away to run their corporations offshore, tax free.

The Declaration of Independence from the British, was canceled on January 20, 2009, — 232 years, 6 months, 17 days after it's birth. Ironically, it was surrendered to the British, to a person named Barack Hussein Obama II.

From a friend, “I just finished reading the decision–

Vattel favored the argument that Natural Born Citizens shared both the
requirements of parentage and geography.

The court put no weight on the Vattel two-parents-as-US-Citizen requirement
for Natural Born status– but only on the geographical location [thus
jurisdiction] of the parents at the time of birth, even for illegal
aliens—

[By this court's interpretation, two illegal-alien parents, or one
illegal-alien parent, can give birth on US soil and the child is a
"natural born" citizen. Dual citizenship ro foreign incumberances mean
nothing.]

Based on this decision it is even more crucial for us to know WHERE
Barack Obama was born– in Hawaii or elsewhere—

If there is no validated birth record on US soil, then this decision
will favor the interpretation that BHO is NOT Natural Born”

I am not a lawyer, but it seems to be Orly Taitz, DDS, Esquire, who is in error when she claims the dismissed appeal helps her clients, since the words would only seem to apply to challenges filed before the election. Orly's clients failed to file until after the election and after Obama was actually sworn in. Mootness because elections move faster than courts is not the same creature as mootness because the case was filed too late for any legal remedy.

From page 6:
“We consider first the District Court's holding that Berg's status as a voter did not provide him standing to challenge Obama's candidacy.* [Blah, blah, blah, voters don't get injured]

* Although the defendants argue that this point is moot because the election is over, we consider the issue because “[t]his controversy, like most election cases, fits squarely within the 'capable of repetition yet avoiding review' exception to the mootness doctrine.” [citation omitted]“

Jim,

8 USC 1401provides a formula for defining a US “citizen”. Nothing more. It does not distinguish between, citizen*, national*, native, natural born (POTUS-eligible), or dual-citizen.

What Congress needs to do, is to take from English Common Law and from the Law of Nations, all that is best for the USA, and form it into a concise set of definitions.

There is no definition of NBC, it needs to be defined as “a child born to two USA citizens on USA soil.”

Children should be the nationality of the father.
Dual-citizens should be the nationality of the father.

There needs to be an end to the “Anchor Baby” loophole, since illegal aliens, tourists and business travelers, are transient aliens. Children born to aliens (CBTA) should not be automatic USA citizens.CBTA should be the nationality of the father.

*8 USC 1101 defines alien, citizen, national, but not native.

Someone named 'naturalized citizen' enquired about how it was Orly Taitz obtained her degree from an online diploma mill.

This is how it happened:

naturalizedcitizen 45 minutes ago
Where did you get the idea about on-line diploma mill – from comrade trentino's rants?

==========

Actually, Orly, we got it from your own website.

You were too stupid and unqualified to gain admission to an accredited law school; instead, you went to an online diploma mill called The Taft School, recognized as a law school by no one.

Here's what the Taft School says at its own website:

“The Distance Education and Training Council (http://www.detc.org) is a non-profit section 501(c) (6) educational association located in Washington, D.C. It was founded in 1926 to promote sound educational standards and ethical business practices within the correspondence field. The independent nine-member Accrediting Commission of the DETC was established in 1955.”

NOTE: “within the correspondence field.”

Since then, they have gone on to award themselves meaningless 'credentials' from other trade associations for correspondence schools.

Here's what the State Bar of California says on its website: “Taft Law School is an unaccredited law school in California.” Unaccredited, Orly. Do you understand what that means?

SOURCE: http://calbar.ca.gov/state/calbar/calbar_generi

Orly, you are a quack, incompetent to enter an accredited law school in California. Just ask the State Bar.

SOURCE, AGAIN: http://calbar.ca.gov/state/calbar/calbar_generi

And that's how the world knows about Orly's on-line diploma mill.

Thanks for asking!!! We appreciate it!!!

14th Amendment (8USC1401): “1. All persons born or naturalized in the
United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the
United States…”

If, big IF, Barack H. Obama II, was “born in the United States, and subject
to the jurisdiction thereof;” he is simply a US citizen, on his mother's side.
But, it takes two persons to make a baby, and those two people are subject national “personal” jurisdictions.

Using Boolean logic as it is applied to digital electronics helps to visualize
the process.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logic_gates
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:LogicGates.svg

The first part of the 14th Amendment “All persons born or naturalized in the United States” is an “OR GATE” meaning either of the attributes “born in USA ” or “naturalized in USA” meet first qualification.

http://sub.allaboutcircuits.com/images/04108.png <<< OR GATE
http://sub.allaboutcircuits.com/images/04101.png <<< AND GATE

The second part of the 14th Amendment “and subject to the jurisdiction
thereof”, begins with an “AND GATE” meaning what follows applies to
either of the two previous qualifications.

There are three main types of judicial jurisdiction:
personal (personam),
territorial (locum), and
subject matter (subjectam).
Jurisdiction, in this sense refers to “personal” and “territorial” authority one or more nations has over the person, according to, national laws and international treaties, concerning travel, migration, extradition, etc. Jurisdiction, can be determined by what nation a person owes allegiance to. A minor cannot give consent, therefore from birth the jurisdiction of the minor, is determined by the jurisdiction of both parents. Jurisdiction, may be determined from point of discovery. For instance a child under age 5 discovered abandoned, will have a place of”birth” listed as a description of the location and circumstances surrounding discovery.

There is no definition of NBC, it needs to be defined as “a child born to two USA citizens on USA soil.”

Why does it “need” to be defined as such. There is already a definition for a natural born citizen. It is a child born within the United States regardless of parents' citizenship.

Just because birthers want does not mean birthers get.

This is the definition of accredited:

To recognize (an institution of learning) as maintaining those standards requisite for its graduates to gain admission to other reputable institutions of higher learning or to achieve credentials for professional practice

Orly went to a school that isn't ABA Accredited. That means that their reputation does not hold up to the standards of a real law school. They don't have standards for getting in either. That's why Orly chose Taft.

Bullshit. There are hundreds, perhaps thousands of cases where the Supreme Court overturned a law duly passed by Congress. The most recent example that springs to mind is the discrimination suit brought by Lily Ledbetter, where the Court imposed a standard of proof on the plaintiff that the authors of the anti-discrimination legislation (some of whom, like Ted Kennedy, were still in office) had never envisioned. It took *another* law to address the Court's decision.

“African Press International is supposed to support Africans and African-American view,” she reportedly said. “It is strange that API has chosen to support the racists against my husband. There is no shame in being adopted by a stepfather. All dirt has been thrown onto my husband’s face and yet he loves this country. My husband and I know that there is no law that will stop him from becoming the president, just because some American white racists are bringing up the issue of my husband’s adoption by his stepfather. The important thing here is where my husband’s heart is at the moment. I can tell the American people that my husband loves this country and his adoption never changed his love for this country. He was born in Hawaii, yes, and that gives him all the right to be an American citizen even though he was adopted by a foreigner .”

Your reply is absurd.

An accredited law school offers courses, labs, libraries, faculty, moot court, written assignments, articling opportunities, guest lectures from distinguished attorneys, judges, and justices, and hands-on apprenticeship with skilled and practicing lawyers.

An unaccredited, online law 'school' offers nothing of the sort. It is equivalent to attending the University of MacDonald's and taking a degree in Hamburgerology.

Consider: if you had the brains to take a law degree at Stanford Law, would you choose Taft Law? If you were smart enough to enter Boalt Hall, would you enter Taft Hall? If you were bright enough to be admitted to Hastings, would you choose Taft?

Why choose a phony, unaccredited law school when — if you have the intellect — you could choose a real law school?

The answer is obvious. Orly Taitz is not very bright, not very skilled, and not very articulate. She chose an unaccredited law school because no real law school would have her.

The only “shorter route” she took was to avoid law school altogether — because she couldn't keep up, she couldn't compete, and she'd never graduate in a million years.

Thanks for asking!

It might be added that, in a real law school with real professors, students are regularly challenged to improve their skills of writing, analysis, presentation, and intellectual rigor.

This is why they have actual classrooms, actual assignments, actual grades, and actual learning.

Orly Taitz, soon to be disbarred for her dishonesty and incompetence, managed to slither past all of that.

Raving Boarder admits that she clearly preferred NOT to be challenged; instead, she chose a kind of 'remote viewing'.

She is one of the most preposterous, ill-equipped and unsuccessful 'lawyers' of the early 21st Century. Has she ever won a court case? A traffic ticket? Jaywalking?

Given the bizarre nature of her 'causes', she never will.

Now, if Orly had gone to a REAL law school.. but that would require her to have an IQ greater than 87 on a hot day.

Clearly, she doesn't.

Why do you defend this bozo? Is she really the best you've got?

Someone named 'naturalized citizen' enquired about how it was Orly Taitz obtained her degree from an online diploma mill.

This is how it happened:

naturalizedcitizen 45 minutes ago
Where did you get the idea about on-line diploma mill – from comrade trentino's rants?

==========

Actually, Orly, we got it from your own website.

You were too stupid and unqualified to gain admission to an accredited law school; instead, you went to an online diploma mill called The Taft School, recognized as a law school by no one.

Here's what the Taft School says at its own website:

“The Distance Education and Training Council (http://www.detc.org) is a non-profit section 501(c) (6) educational association located in Washington, D.C. It was founded in 1926 to promote sound educational standards and ethical business practices within the correspondence field. The independent nine-member Accrediting Commission of the DETC was established in 1955.”

NOTE: “within the correspondence field.”

Since then, they have gone on to award themselves meaningless 'credentials' from other trade associations for correspondence schools.

Here's what the State Bar of California says on its website: “Taft Law School is an unaccredited law school in California.” Unaccredited, Orly. Do you understand what that means?

SOURCE: http://calbar.ca.gov/state/calbar/calbar_generi

Orly, you are a quack, incompetent to enter an accredited law school in California. Just ask the State Bar.

SOURCE, AGAIN: http://calbar.ca.gov/state/calbar/calbar_generi

And that's how the world knows about Orly's on-line diploma mill.

Thanks for asking!!! We appreciate it!!!

One of my neighbors thinks I'm a kook, one agrees with me and the other don't seem to give a darn. It's my yard.

The Remington pump was given to me as a Christmas gift when I was in High School, so about 34 years old. My pride and joy is the Browning. Something that I keep in its bag and clean frequently. There is no other firearm made as well. It's the only shotgun I use for pheasant and quail hunting. When I go duck hunting, I use the pump because we usually go 'pond jumping'. I don't like crawling up the back of a dam with the Browning.

The rifle is an old Remington 30-06 that I used for deer hunting many years ago and was my dad's before it became mine. I have a Glock 17 and an old Smith & Wesson .38 special.

Why do you think I'm here? I'm a member of the NRA. I'm what would be called a Reagan Republican. Probably for different reasons than you. You don't trust the government – at least I think that's why you're here and against Obama. There are certain aspects of the government I don't like. Sure, there's corruption at all levels. I'm here defending Obama because I'm tired of all of the crap that goes on after elections. I was initially a 'truther' and followed all of the conspiracy theories against Bush. I suppose I finally woke up and realized that none of it was true. I didn't like Clinton when he ran for office and voted for Perot. Perhaps had I voted for the original Bush, Clinton wouldn't have won – who knows. But then I saw how the hypocracy in Congress turned against Clinton and there were more important issues to deal with than to sacrifice Clinton. If the worst thing they could come up with was Clinton getting a BJ in the Oval Office – well it was a total waste of tax dollars.

Now, people refuse to recognize Obama as our President even though he was legally elected by a large landslide. He is being blamed for the bail out when in fact, the bill was actually signed by Bush. The debt hasn't gone up under Obama. It went up under Bush. Over time, I've learned to get my news and information from multiple sources and not just those that reflect my political views. And I get angry with my own friends that ARE racist in their dislike of Obama. Regardless, they're my friends. I respect their opinions and they have learned to respect mine.

It took me a lot of time to begin to respect Obama. Not for his passionate speeches but more so from reading about him and the FACT that he had it a lot tougher growing up than I did and he beat the odds. He's achieved more in his short lifetime than I have in my longer lifetime and he had many more obstacles to get where he did than I.

Among her many mad accusations was one that caught our attention. According to 'Attorney', 39 members of the “Federal Judiciary” were monitoring these boards, armed with search warrants for our IPs, and ready to jail us for alleged violations of the Hatch Act. Immediately.

Curious about this bizarre assertion, we asked 'Attorney' to name EVEN ONE of these 39 Federal judges. Not three. Not two. Not all 39. Just ONE.

Well, more than a day has rolled by and, guess what? Yet another insane birther has flown the coop. This lie-by-night parasite zooms in, lays lies, and flies away again. Not one name was provided. No evidence. No proof. Nothing. Just another ridiculous lie.

Anyone notice a pattern?

These cretins will say anything, lie about anything, make anything up, invent panels of fictitious Judges, forge Kenyan birth certificates, suborn perjury, purport to act on behalf of clients who have already fired them, claim to know the names of “paid DOJ bloggers”, insist on a “mysterious international brotherhood” that actually runs the world, and do anything else it takes to keep their egos stoked with self-importance.

These cretins are caught with their lies and forged documents time and again, and seem to imagine that the world takes them seriously.

The world does not.

'Attorney' has been caught telling another whopper, as was 'Ernie', 'Graham the Red', 'AXJ Rocks', 'Naturalized Citizen', 'ObamaCorn', and so many other con men before them.

Guys, face it: your track record is so horrible, so laughable, so provably false that you should really enter another line of work.

Perhaps running an online, unaccredited law school? That would be good for you. Good luck!

Uh, Gerry, old sport…given the physique suggested by the impressive number of chins in that picture on your Facebook page, I'd really really really like to see a non-Photoshopped copy of your military service record, preferably notarized by someone who is not related to you. Refusal to produce such will lead me to believe that not only are you a poorly educated bigot, you are a hypocrite and a chickenhawk as well.

As to whether you own guns or not – let's just say that I'm glad I still have my great-grandfather's old shotgun in case you and your other friends from the Wolverines decide to show up in my peaceful, all-American little town. You see, we don't like traitors up here in New England, and the way you mouth off, you'd last about five minutes in town meeting….

And oh yeah – the President is a natural born American citizen, not a subject of HM Elizabeth II. Just thought you should know that.

The Secret Eskimos are cousins to the Hidden Esquimaux of Victoria, B.C. In their secret caves they plot the overthrow of the “mysterious international brotherhood” to which that traitor Graham the Red has referred — too often for his own good.

The Secret Eskimo/Esquimaux are leading the search for the Secret Birthplace of Queen Orly Herself. Some say it was in Black Mombaville. Others say it was a CIA lab in Virginia. Still others think she that was actually born in an echo chamber operated by Bell Labs.

Don't worry, my friend — the truth will come out!! Soon the world will know where the Queen of All Birthers was really born.

It may not be entirely clear WHY she was born…

Barack Obama was born in Mombasa, Kenya. His cousin, Raila Odinga, the Prime Minister of Kenya, ORDERED the Ministry of Immigration, under which records of births and deaths are maintained, to seal the record. It should also be noted that the birth certificate proffered by Orly Taitz as evidence is not genuine. Obama's height and weight measurements are given in pounds and inches. Kenya, formerly under British rule, uses the metric system. There is, however, an authentic birth certificate for Barack Obama in Kenya but no minister will certify is out of fear of losing his job or something much more.

Uhh, sorry, Mr Snail, but HOW do you know this? What is your evidence? Where is your proof?

And, uhhh, Mr Obama was born on 4 August 1961 — according to you, in Mombasa KENYA.

Mombasa was at that time part of Zanzibar, and did not become part of Kenya until 12 December 1963.

As usual, your ridiculous lies catch up to you faster than you can imagine.

And you are nuts. As has been said many, many times, Mombasa was not a part of Kenya at the time of the presidents birth, so he wouldn't have been born there. The real birth certificate is on file in the Hawaiian Department of Health, Vital Statistics, and has been since August 8, 1961, four days after he was born there. President Obama didn't even have contact with his Kenyan relatives until he became an adult. He obviously had his birth certificate in order to have an American passport, with which he traveled not only in his youth but after reaching the age of majority. You all need to give it a rest. You are wrong and will be considered another nut job if you keep pursuing this crazy conspiracy crap. If you have any sense left, abandon this foolishness before you become one of them- A birther!

Evening, YMBJ. I really enjoy your posts. Sardonic, truthful, to the point, and immensely patient.

Orly, posing as 'Attorney' wrote, 2 days ago,

“39 currently active members of the FEDERAL JUDICIARY have been actively monitoring this blog tonight. Warrants for “I.P.” addresses were issued days ago. You DOJ paid liars are being investigated and you will soon be indicted for violating the “Hatch Act”. You have posted absolutely nothing but lies and very feeble attempts at misdirection. Indiana courts rulings have NO bearing on federal law.”

Completely nuts, of course.

It appears about p3 on the postboard, “Rare Non-Orly Taitz Birther Smackdown”, one of the more fun ones.

'Attorney' seems to have disappeared. Do you also suspect that these are ALL Orly herself, defective grammar, narcissism and sheer nuttiness prevalent in every birther posting? They certainly sound like her.

Judging by the vast turnout (was it 4 people? 7?) at her FOX protest, it seems possible. Anyway, thanks again for your relentless efforts to induce a moment of insanity into their disordered fantasies.

I missed that one. Hey, for all of you out there that know the truth of the matter- that our president is a natural born citizen and quite eligible to be our president- got a question for you. How many of you heard those various Oily interviews and comments she made where she was exhorting the military and “citizens” to take up arms against the government? I heard her say it several times but I haven't found them now that I'm looking. Hate going to her site, it screws with my computer. You never know what you might get into when you start looking at these sites. I seriously think this woman and some of her clients could be dangerous. After the tragedy last week at Ft. Hood, I think they are going to be paying closer attention to those who seem to have an ax to grind. I found her comments on Ft. Hood to be offensive, ignorant and downright stupid. She doesn't even know who the victims are- calling them all young boys- when men and women lost their life that day. Though I don't think you can no call those old enough to go to war – young boys or young girls.

I appreciate your response and I am sorry if facts or another opinion offend you.

FYI, I was asked by attorney, Philip Berg, prior to the election to see if it was possible to obtain a certified copy of Barack Obama's birth records in Kenya, assuming his birth in that country was not just grist for the “paranoid” rumor-mill. I was asked because of my business relationships with many of Kenya's ministers over the past thirty years. The information I was given was conclusive, the problem, as I indicated in my posting, was the current Prime Minister, Raila Odinga, is Barack Obama's cousin and he ordered the file sealed.

I also provided this information to Orly Taitz and was astounded when she produced a “not so genuine” birth certificate, which does not even remotely resemble a Kenyan birth certificate of the 1960's.

As far as Dr. Chiyome Fukino's statement, it is impossible for me to comment one way or the other.

No one is offended by inadvertent error. All are offended by calculated lies, deception, and mis-direction.

Without qualification or explication of any kind, you flatly declared, “Barack Obama was born in Mombasa, Kenya.” This is plainly false.

You must now admit, according to your Bergesque theory, that Mr Obama was born in Mombasa City, which is an island (like Manhattan, like Montreal), in Mombasa District. Some years AFTER Mr Obama's alleged birth there, it was ceded by Zanzibar and became part of modern Kenya's Coast Province.

But let's pretend that's what you meant.

You now have the problem of PROOF. Where is your evidence? Where is your documentation? Where are your witnesses? Do you have a single fact to support anything?

Given the notorious history of the birthers, with whom you have so foolishly allied yourself, NO ONE BELIEVES A WORD YOU SAY.

PROBLEM: Mr Odinga is an ethnic Luo, born in Maseno, Nyona Province, nowhere near Mombasa.

PROBLEM: his parents were Jaramagi O Odinga and Mary Juma. There is no relationship between these people and Mr Obama.

PROBLEM: “In a January 2008 BBC interview, Odinga asserted that he was the first cousin of U.S. president Barack Obama through Obama's father.[28] However, Barack Obama's paternal uncle denied any direct relation to Odinga, stating “Odinga's mother came from this area, so it is normal for us to talk about cousins. But he is not a blood relative.”[29] Obama's father came from the same Luo community as Odinga. [28]” [WIKIPEDIA]

Your story doesn't add up, is flatly denied by his father's brother (paternal uncle), and your version carries NO DOCUMENTATION.

PROBLEM: you claim to have been a businessman of 30 years' standing in Kenya. PROVE IT. For whom did you work? Where? When? Doing what? Why? Do you have photographs? Contracts? You are affiliated with known liars and crackpots, and thus have an additional burden of proof.

CONSIDER: I worked for 30 years with your father, Mr Sneller. I know for a fact that your biological father is actually Jerry McKenzie. To protect your family and your mother's reputation, the Registrar of Records (your paternal uncle) secretly caused your birth records to be destroyed. In their place were substituted the documents you now use today, and which provide your SSN and your passport.

Sorry to be the one to break the news, Jeffrey.

PROVE me wrong.

And remember, by your standards, all I need to do is say it.

Poor Mr Sneller: let's look at your avatar and pal, Philip Berg.

“Berg was successfully sued for legal malpractice by former clients on whose behalf Berg had neglected to file a response to a complaint in an ERISA lawsuit, resulting in a default judgment being entered against the former clients.

Berg responded by bringing into the malpractice suit the plaintiffs in the ERISA action on a claim of fraud upon the court. The ERISA plaintiffs moved for summary judgment—which was granted after Berg failed to respond to the motion—and then moved for sanctions against Berg. Berg again failed to file a response.

On June 2, 2005, U.S. District Judge J. Curtis Joyner granted the motion for sanctions, finding that the fraud claim was “was inadequately pled, not grounded in fact, time-barred, and utterly irrelevant to the pending malpractice action against him.”

Observing that an attorney's signature on a complaint constitutes, among other things, a certification that the signer has conducted a reasonable inquiry into the grounds for the claim asserted, the court further found that “even the most limited investigation would have revealed that [Berg] had no standing to raise such a claim.” The court also found that Berg's claim was motivated by a “desire to harass” and “delay litigation.” The court fined Berg $10,000 and ordered him to attend six hours of ethics training.[5][6]

“While Berg is often referred to as the former “Deputy Attorney General” of Pennsylvania, he was merely one of many such deputy attornies general; indeed at the lowest level, Deputy Attorney General I, Berg's level, there were more than forty such office holders.” [WIKIPEDIA]

Poor Mr Sneller: re your new friend, Philip Berg.

He is the crackpot who believes that Pres Bush CAUSED the destruction of the World Trade Centre at 9/11. Do you believe this?

“In 2004, Berg filed a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) lawsuit on behalf of a World Trade Center maintenance worker against President George W. Bush and others alleging that the Bush and certain government officials conspired to bring about the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center.[3] The federal district court dismissed the suit.”
[WIKIPEDIA]

Do you, Mr Sneller, actually believe that our President would (somehow) arrange to destroy three major structures in our nation's greatest city?

We understand that you guys have now dumped overboard the laughable and lying Orly Taitz. She is a narcissistic nut. She embarrasses even you guys, and that takes a lot.

I do not affiliate with anyone on this issue, and I am certainly not miffed at your response. You have every right to be skeptical. I found the assignment interesting, which is the reason I pursued it, and like you, require facts over fiction — which is the reason I called out Orly Taitz, who was negligent in her use of a bogus document to support her allegations. You are also right in your assertion that there is no proof, which was the reason Philip Berg asked if I could obtain a “certified” copy of Obama's birth records. If it cannot be certified by a ministry official, there is no way to prove its authenticity. Obviously, if I had a certified birth certificate (not a photo copy of the original) I would not be having these e-mail exchanges with you. FYI, if I had been asked to obtain the same or similar documents for John McCain during the election, and there was some doubt as to his qualifications to run as President, I would have done the same.

A general observation.

Shortly after there was some kind of hiccup here and my posts were removed in addition to my inability to post, the 'conversation' here was just a little more civil than it was prior. I was probably the worst offender when it came to bad language and insults.

I've tried to remain a bit more civil but have realized that I am starting to lean my posts to be less civil. I like the conversations that go on under these blog posts. This is probably the most active comment section for any blog there is.

I am going to try to be more civil. That's all I'm saying. People all have opinions just as they have assholes – me included.

It wasn't that long ago that I did jump on board to thinking Bush knew something about 9/11. I followed Berg like a stupid sheep. The people here that are against Obama are wrong in my opinion but they have the right to express their opinion. I hope they would realize that they're wrong. There's just no way I can lean their direction.

My main reason for posting here is because I dislike Orly. She is a certifiable nutcase and I think she really should be put in a mental hospital. Maybe a couple of months in 'Trembling Pines' is what she needs. And I will make this last observation. Charles Lincoln is no longer working with her and has posted some things on Orly's Facebook that leads me to believe that she is a really bad attorney – not that I needed to be convinced.

I'm going to continue to follow this 'saga' as it continues and I will comment when I feel justified in doing so. Do not be surprised, birthers, if I feel like beating up on you once in awhile. Especially when you make outrageous allegations against Obama.

I will use the process of elimination to come up with the definition of NBC. There are only few possibilities:

a) naturalized citizen
b) born a citizen (includes foreign born children of US citizens)
c) born in the US (includes children of illegal aliens)
d) born in US of citizen parents (most strict definition)

Option (a) was included in this list just for the sake of mentioning all types of paths to citizenship. It is obvious that it does not satisfy the requirement of citizenship at birth.

Options (b), (c) and (d) describe citizens at birth.
The option (b) is the least restrictive of those.

In 1790 US Congress passed a law (An Act to Establish An Uniform Rule of Naturalization) that extended the “natural born citizen” status to foreign born children of US citizens. Five years later, the law was repealed and replaced with the one that declared foreign born children of US citizens to be citizens.

The early Congress made a clear distinction between the terms “Natural Born Citizen (NBC)” and “citizen at birth”.

This clearly indicates that option (b) is not the definition of an NBC.

What is the meaning of the word “natural” in the NBC phrase? Could it be a restriction on place of birth, thus described by option (c)?

The problem with definition (c) is simple: it qualifies children of illegal aliens to be POTUS.
In his letter to Washington, John Jay asked for a “strong check” that a foreigner could not become a commander of US military. He suggested the use of phrase “NBC”.
The idea that a child born in the USA of illegal immigrants would qualify to be a Commander in Chief, is clearly absurd and opposite to the original intention for eligibility requirement.

By showing that options (a), (b) and (c) are not correct, only option (d) remains.

NBC = born in the USA of citizen parents.

This is also the only definition that is bulletproof in a sense that nobody has any doubts that such citizens are NBCs.

It clearly satisfies the original intention about national security since such citizens do not have dual loyalties at birth. In addition, this is the only definition that follows the law of nature – no man-made laws are needed to determine the citizenship at birth for such person.

When Bush 'stole' the 2000 election – and yes, I truly believe he stole it – I was really angry. I remember 9/11 like it was yesterday. I got up and went to my computer. On my main news page, there was a photo of one of the towers that had been hit by an airplane. To me, it looked like it had been it my a small aircraft, so I wrote it off as some pilot just had a heart attack or went to sleep on autopilot. Right before I left to go to work, I had the television on and saw the other airliner hit the second tower. And I didn't go to work that day. I sat and watched the whole drama.

Yes, when I saw the Phil Berg had brought suit against Bush, I was all excited. But over time my thinking changed. Was Bush responsible? I doubt it. At least not directly. HE WAS responsible for not doing something with the intelligence he received. Especially when Rice went on television and said there was no way they could anticipate such an attack – especially after that summit they had attended and the security had taken into consideration that attacks could be carried out by aircraft.

So, I was once nuts because I believed in Berg. I do not believe Obama is a usurper. Having served in the military, I took my oath to protect the Constitution of the United States seriously. The military personnel that are jumping on Orly's bandwagon are traitors in my opinion. The majority of the active duty are merely using this excuse to shirk their duties. I am thankful for what the military gave me. I received a good education and not once did I ever question my orders. If you can remember back in the mid 80's when we kicked Libya's ass, I was there.

1) Bush “stole” election!?
New York Times paid for the recount (according to Gore's request) to be completed and concluded that it wouldn't have made a difference.
It is also very likely that Nader had siphoned off enough votes from Gore to ensure Bush's victory.

2) Obama's eligibility?
A real leader (commander in chief) would not leave the troops wondering about his eligibility. If soldiers are asked to risk their lives, it should be a trivial request that their CiC proves the eligibility. He should be the one to voluntarily disclose necessary information, to make sure that those under his command have absolutely no doubts about legitimacy of their commander. Instead, Obama is fighting for dismissal of eligibility lawsuits.
A real leader would behave differently.

Unlike 9/11 conspiracy theories, the “birthers” could be proven wrong by showing Obama's long form birth certificate (which would indicate Kapiolani as birth hospital). What do we have instead – Kapiolani removed letter from Obama from their web site when asked about its authenticity. It does not make any sense.

Sorry, I missed that e-mail. Anyone who would wish personal injury to another is either immature or has a mental disorder. It all comes down to the ballot box, don't you agree? If a President does a good job during his first term, he will be re-elected. If not, he won't. Personally, I don't care who is President as long as the opposite party controls the House. That way, the President can shoot hoops, there are no extreme agendas one way or the other and the country can move forward in slow, deliberate baby steps.

My agenda:

Term limits;
Elimination of pork barrel spending;
Balancing the budget;
Waylon Bennett healthcare reform bill;
Enforcement of current immigration laws (i.e. card check, et al);
Payroll tax holiday;
Tax cuts across the board, including capital gains to 15%.
Re-instatement of the Glass Steigel (sp?) Act and other controls to prevent another “too big to fail” disaster.

As usual, you are focused on attacking the messenger.

How about the message: How do we verify that COLB, posted on the “factcheck.org”, proves Obama's Hawaiian birth.

1. Hawaii DoH has not released the index data for registration number 10641. What is there to hide? Repetitive requests from citizens have been ignored by DoH in violation of their state laws.

2. Why does the COLB say “Filed by Registrar” and not “Accepted by State Registrar”?

Manual describing the use of these phrases on Hawaii birth certificates is hidden from public, in violation of Hawaii state laws.

3. Simple requests from DoH to confirm the issuing of Obama's COLB on June 6, 2007 have been ignored. This information has been made public by “factcheck.org”. The DoH would not confirm it. How do we explain their behavior – after all, everything about Obama's Hawaiian birth is legitimate, right?

Definition of a natural born US citizen: clear and unambiguous according to Title 8 of the US code, Section 1401. The law says what it says.

Who is a natural-born citizen? Who, in other words, is a citizen at birth, such that that person can be a President someday?

The 14th Amendment defines citizenship this way: “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.” But even this does not get specific enough. As usual, the Constitution provides the framework for the law, but it is the law that fills in the gaps.

Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in those gaps. Section 1401 defines the following as people who are “citizens of the United States at birth:”

•Anyone born inside the United States *
•Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person's status as a citizen of the tribe
•Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
•Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
•Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
•Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
•Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
•A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.
* There is an exception in the law — the person must be “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States. This would exempt the child of a diplomat, for example, from this provision.

Anyone falling into these categories is considered natural-born, and is eligible to run for President or Vice President.

I did not. I said he was born in Kenya, according to his birth records. I have no idea whether or not that would make him ineligible to hold the office of President, given that his mother was an American citizen. It seems to me that would be up to the courts to decide, and it appears that decision has been determined by several courts.

Here's something I don't understand.
Aside from the illogic of two broke young people travelling halfway around the world while she was extremely pregnant, why Mombossa?
Barack Obama's Kenyan family lives in Western Kenya on shores of Lake Victoria. Mombossa is on the southeast coast of Kenya, over a thousand miles from the village where Obama's kin live.
And why would Obama Sr. take his young bride to give birth in a city that was not only a thousand miles away from his family, where it is unlikely he knew anyone, but was not even part of Kenya? He would likely have needed a visa just to get in. And there's no evidence that Mrs. Obama had a passport at that time, since there is no evidence she had ever left the country before. How would she have gained admittance to Zanzibar without a passport?
Also, it's well-known that Mr. Obama Sr. already had a wife and two children in Kenya, and it's certain that Stanley Ann Obama knew nothing about the first Mrs. Obama since all the couple's friends in Hawaii swear that they didn't know about his other family. Is it believable that a man would take his new bride home to meet the other wife that she didn't know about? Why would any man willingly walk into that hornet's nest?
In addition, there is a witness, Barbara Nelson, who discussed President Obama's birth on Aug.4, 1961, the day he was born in Hawaii, with the doctor who delivered him. She wrote to her father about the event, and later was one of President Obama's teachers at the Punahou School.
Considering that anyone born on American soil is a natural-born American citizen, I really don't see what all the fuss is about.

KENYA COLONY AND PROTECTORATE.

Government. The Kenya Colony and Protectorate extend, on the
Indian Ocean, from the Umba River to Dick's Head, and inland as far as Lake Victoria and Uganda. The protectorate consists of the mainland dominions of the Sultan of Zanzibar, viz., a coastal strip of territory 10 miles wide, to the northern branch of the Tana River; also Kau, Kipini and the Island of Lamu, and all adjacent islands between rivers Umba and Tana, these territories having been leased to Great Britain in 1895 for an annual rent of 10,000, since raised to 16,000. The colony and protectorate, known as the East Africa Protectorate, were, on 1 April, 1905, transferred from the authority of the Foreign Office to that of the Colonial Office, and in
November, 1906, the protectorate was placed under the control of a
Governor and Commander-in-Chief and (except the Sultan of Zanzibar's
dominions) was annexed to the Crown as from 23 July, 1920, under the
name of * The Colony of Kenya,' thus becoming a Crown Colony. The
territories on the coast rented from the Sultan of Zanzibar became the Kenya Protectorate. In 1908 foreign consular jurisdiction in the Zanzibar strip of coast was transferred to the British Crown.

“The following shall be nationals and citizens of the United
States at birth:

(g) a person born outside the geographical limits of the United States and its outlying possessions of parents one of whom is an alien, and the other a citizen of the United States who, prior to the birth of such person, was physically present in the United States or its outlying possessions for a period or periods totaling not less than ten years, at least five of which were after attaining the age of fourteen years…”

But, they got caught in third trimester, and couldn't. No problem, the birth could be registered with the consulate or on return to Hawaii.

“NBC = born in the USA of citizen parents.”

Note the plural, because a child born to a citizen (singular) parent, and an alien world-wide, is a dual national.

And the Indiana appeals court on page 17, footnote 15 “We reiterate that we do not address the question of natural born citizen status for persons who became United States citizens at birth by virtue of being born of United States citizen parents, despite the fact that they were born abroad. That question was not properly presented to this court. Without addressing the question, however, we note that nothing in our opinion today should be understood to hold that being born within the fifty United States is the only way one can receive natural born citizen status.”

An inconclusive answer, even neglecting a later decision by SCOTUS in Perkins v. Elg, 307 U.S. 325 (1939), where two naturalized citizens birthed an NBC, in the USA.

“* There is an exception in the law — the person must be “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States. This would exempt the child of a diplomat, for example, from this provision.”

If “jurisdiction” was enforced, the children born to tourists, drug cartel soldiers, illegal aliens, and persons trafficked in as sex slaves or surrogates, wouldn't be granted US nationality.

How about requiring “owing allegiance to the USA” as a requirement for NBC?

I do not need to cite more than two laws from 1790 and 1795 that clearly indicate that early Congress made a distinction between the “natural born citizen” and “citizen at birth”.

The rest of the discussion is focused on the original intent for inclusion of NBC phrase into Constitution.

There is no court case that explicitly define the NBC. It is not needed – the only definition for which no man made law is needed for interpretation is the one that says “born in the USA of citizen parents”.

Any other definition involves debate – references to court cases, man-made laws. It stops being a “natural born citizen” and becomes a “born a citizen” definition.

Did you read my post carefully?

Early Congress made clear distinction between phrases “natural born citizen” and “citizen at birth”. Therefore, you cannot simply make an assumption that two are the same and proceed to cite a law that defines who the citizen at birth is.

In addition, framers of the Constitution could have specified the phrase “citizen at birth” as part of the eligibility requirement.
Hamilton proposed to use the phrase “born a citizen”. It was not adopted. Instead, the proposal described in John Jay's letter to Washington to include the “natural born citizen” was adopted.

From the Court of Appeals in Indiana:

Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are “natural born Citizens” for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents. Just as a person “born within the British dominions [was] a natural-born British subject” at the time of the framing of the U.S. Constitution, so too were those “born in the allegiance of the United States [] natural-born citizens.”

Perkins versus Elg confirmed Elg to be a natural born citizen even though her parents were Swedish nationals.

From Perkins v. Elg:

The court below, properly recognizing the existence of an actual controversy with the defendants [307 U.S. 325, 350] (Aetna Life Ins. Co. v. Haworth, 300 U.S. 227 , 57 S.Ct. 461, 108 A.L.R. 1000), declared Miss Elg 'to be a natural born citizen of the United States' (99 F.2d 414) and we think that the decree should include the Secretary of State as well as the other defendants. The decree in that sense would in no way interfere with the exercise of the Secretary's discretion with respect to the issue of a passport but would simply preclude the denial of a passport on the sole ground that Miss Elg had lost her American citizenship.

I believe the biggest problem birthers have is their inability to understand this:

A natural born citizen is a person born in the United States or to two U. S. Citizens if born overseas. A naturalized citizen is one who has been given citizenship to the United States and not born in the United States. There is a difference, though SCOTUS has not definitively addressed the terms.

I was tempted to rebut NC (again), but he has become predictable, therefore boring, therefore not entertaining. I vow to ignore him.

The fact is Congress used the term “natural born citizen” only once, in 1790, and has never used it again in the citizenship laws. NC provides us no history (e.g., record of legislative debates) to explain why Congress dropped the term in 1795. No court is going to accept NC's assumption as to why Congress made that change, absent such legislative history — NC's opinion, surprising as it may be to NC, just isn't enough. Moreover, the use of the term “natural born citizen” in the 1790 Act was only with reference to the children of U.S. citizens born abroad. Congress never purported to provide an inclusive definition of “natural born citizen.” For example, Congress never said that a person born in the U.S. is a “natural born citizen” or that a person born in the U.S. of one or two citizen parents is a “natural born citizen.” The courts simply won't find the record of congressional enactments in 1790 and 1795 persuasive with regard to defining who is and who is not a natural born citizen.

Lincoln and Orly were running a scam. Lincoln is still running it. He gets people in foreclosure to sign over their property to him. It's not completely clear how a home owner that has a mortgage can do this without the consent of the bank but it is apparently the way the Chucky boy can then fight against the mortgage company, pro se, without being an attorney. During the time he's doing this, he can do anything he wants with the property except sell it. Live in it, rent it out… The end loser will be the people that signed their property over the Lincoln in hopes that he can stop the foreclosure. He will ultimately lose and they will lose as well.

There is also the complete lack of evidence that the Obamas ever made any such journey. No passport records, no witnesses, no evidence that Barack Obama Sr. knew anyone in that part of the country, which after all was over a thousand miles from where he was born and raised.
It's not like they were tourists. They were broke college students with no disposable income to speak of .
Also the idea that a pregnant 18 year old girl would voluntarily leave her mother at such a time is laughable to any woman.

a) naturalized citizen
b) born a citizen (includes foreign born children of US citizens)
c) born in the USA (includes children of illegal aliens)
d) born in the USA of citizen parents (most strict definition)
——————————

You do understand, don't you that b) and c) of the above are exactly the same.

If you are born in the U.S., you are a citizen, regardles of who your parents are.

Here’s an interesting point.
A few years ago some anti-immigration congressmen wanted to amend the Constitution to prevent the children of illegal immigrants born in the USA from having natural born citizen status.
This proposal proceeded from the fact that any child born in this country, with the narrow exception of the child of a diplomat, is a natural born citizen.
Now these same people are claiming that there are two classes of people born here: citizens and super duper extra American citizens.

Do the turtles have college records? I want to see their long-form birth certificates AND their college records. Then I'll be satisfied!

(Unless, that is, any of the turtles had a Kenyan father. Then the birth certificate doesn't even matter, because they can't be natural born turtles if their fathers were Kenyan).

But none of this applies to white turtles.

Where does she say that the original birth certificate confirms Hawaiian birth?

You need to put both of her press releases next to each other and read both to get the idea of language used to mislead the US public. In the first pres release ahe mentioned the original birth certificate but did not say anything about Hawaiian birth.

In the second one (quoted in your post) she mentions Hawaiian birth but she also mentions original vital records (plural) which gives her wiggle room. How many documents are there to support the Hawaiian birth. We do not know.

The second press release (July 2009) was issued just few hours after the resolution by Congress saying that Obama was born in Hawaii. Was this resolution used as a cover for Dr. Fukino's public statement?

If Obama was indeed born in Hawaii, why would DoH refuse to confirm that the COLB (image posted on factcheck.org) was issued to Obama on June 6, 2007.

Why would DoH refuse to release the index data for registration number 10641. This violates Hawaii state laws that make index data public.

Why would DoH refuse to make public the manual describing the “Filed by Registrar” vs. 'Accepted by State registrar” which would explain the meaning of the COLB?

If your interpretation of Dr. Fukino's statement is correct, there would be no need for DoH to hide tha data that is (according to Hawaii state law) in public domain.

And finally, for each of Dr. Fukino's statements I will quote you three statements by Colin Powell, George Tennet and other government officials who claimed that Iraq had WMDs and the case was “slam dunk”. Powell even went to UN and showed pictures of “storage sites”.

We do not need to invade the foreign country to verify Dr. Fukino's words. It would be sufficient if we could force the DoH to follow Hawaii state laws.

“Read the ruling.”

This you can be sure NC will not do. NC asks questions. NC does not do research, even when led by the nose to the sources he seeks. When corrected, he changes the topic or fails to admit his error. And then after a day or two, he goes back to posting the same errors. This circle of ignorance has no end because NC cannot bear for it to end. He seems to take a perverse pleasure in futility. My assumption is that he is an extremely lonely person, and he would rather we make fun of him than ignore him completely. Being denounced by us gives his life meaning, perhaps the only meaning it has.

Many of us have suggested that he take action, instead of just whining. For example, if he truly believes that President Obama has committed Social Security fraud by using a SSN that was not legally issued to him, NC could file a complaint with the Social Security Administration. I’ve provided him a link to do so, numerous times. I doubt he has done it. He is impotent. All rage, no action.

This is the proper use of the term for a native English speaker.

You might say: “the original record” but not “The original vital record.”

“Vital Records” (plural) is the common term, and in fact, depending on how their databae is set up, may infact be an accurate description of the record orginization.

The proper word is “original birth certificate”. Original vital records phrase is not as specific – it could indicate multiple records including amendments to birth certificate. It does not pinpoint the source of claim for Obama's Hawaiian birth.
As a native speaker you should know that.

I use Dr. Fukino's first press-release as a guide to deciphering her words. The October 2008 statement is clearly designed to mislead the public. That is why I am not willing to give her the benefit of the doubt on how to interpret the July 2009 statement.

We can verify her statement using legal ways – if we could force the DoH to comply with Hawaii state laws and release public domain documents.

from Wong Kim Ark:

The first section of the second article of the Constitution uses the language, “a natural-born citizen.” It thus assumes that citizenship may be acquired by birth. Undoubtedly, this language of the Constitution was used in reference to that principle of public law, well understood in this country at the time of the adoption of the Constitution, which referred citizenship to the place of birth.

There is only one citizenship. All citizens are equal in their rights and responsibilities. You are describing various paths to citizenship.

Natural Born Citizen phrase appears only in the eligibility requirement for POTUS – nowhere else in the Constitution. It is a security measure that prevents a foreigner from being elected as a commander of US military.

Early Congress made a clear distinction between phrases NBC and “citizen at birth” as I have described in my first post.

I've been looking at my birth certificate and it doesn't even say “birth certificate.”
It says “Copy of a Record of Live Birth” instead. And it lists the town I was born in, but not the hospital! It also lists my parents' birthplaces, but no racial information is provided. It gives the doctor's name, but is utterly mute on the subject of whether the “certificate” was “filed” or “accepted.” And it's really short. It doesn't look like a “long form” at all, just about half a sheet of typing paper. I mean I got a social security number, a passport, a driver's license, and several jobs using it as identification. Was that wrong?

It is far from certain that the U.S. Supreme Court will hear the case. To begin with, the Indiana Supreme Court has discretionary jurisdiction over any appeal from the Indiana Court of Appeals. In other words, the Indiana Supreme Court could decide that they don’t want to hear the case. If they agree with the decision of the Court of Appeals, the very well may decline review.

The U.S. Supreme Court also has discretion whether to review an appeal (Writ of Certiorari) from the Indiana Supreme Court. If the decision from Indiana is that Barack Obama is a “natural born citizen,” I expect the U.S. Supreme Court would decline review, for at least the following reasons:

(1) The decisions of the Indiana Supreme Court and the Indiana Court of Appeals provide binding precedent only for other lower Indiana state courts. Thus, the Indiana Court of Appeals decision does not affect anyone’s ability to raise the “natural born citizen” issue in other jurisdictions, including in any federal court.

(2) Granting review could create an extended period of uncertainty regarding the status of the President, and SCOTUS threatens its own legitimacy if it is seen as undermining a sitting President and his ability to head the Executive Branch and serve as Commander-in-Chief.

(3) The Consitution already provides a method for dealing with a sitting President: Impeachment. For the same reason other federal courts have stayed out of this issue, I think the U.S. Supreme Court will as well.

The second part that you conveniently omitted describes the grandfathered clause used by several of first presidents. They could not be natural born, that is why they had to make a privision for citizens, at the time when Constitution was adopted, to be eligible to run for POTUS.

That option has long ago expired.

“Natural born” is a security measure that restricts the pool of eligible citizens who could command the US military.

You are mad that a non-lawyer, with clear logical thinking could prove you wrong.

The example I used: the change of words used in laws from 1790 and 1795 destroys the Indiana Appelate Court opinion.

It clearly says that early Congress did not consider NBC to be the same as citizen at birth. No amount of language twisting and “lawyering” can change that simple fact.

What other cases do you need to show the simple truth?
This is an early Congress speaking. They knew better what the meaning of the NBC phrase was, when written into Constitution, than some judge 100 or 200 years after the fact.

If you used the John Jay’s letter as a guidance – there is no possibility to go astray as to what the intention of the NBC phrase is.

You rebutted nothing.

You could not provide any other source for including the phrase NBC into Constitution. As far as I know John Jay’s letter is the only one.

Your argument was that letter does not explicitly say what the phrase means.

The letter provides the MOTIVATION for inclusion of the NBC phrase into Constitution: A “strong check” that a foreigner would not be elected to be a commander of US military.
Basically, it is a national security measure.

Combine it with the early Congress’ redefinition of 1790 law (NBC is not the same as “citizen at birth”) and you get very close to what the NBC phrase means.

Include the opinion of John Bingham, the writer of the Section 1 of the 14th Amendment…

” Every citizen or subject of another country, while domiciled here, is within the allegiance and the protection, and consequently subject to the jurisdiction, of the United States. His allegiance to the United States is direct and immediate, and, although but local and temporary, continuing only so long as he remains within our territory, is yet, in the words of Lord Coke in Calvin’s Case, 7 Rep. 6a, “strong enough to make a natural subject, for if he hath issue here, that issue is a natural-born subject;” and his child, as said by Mr. Binney in his essay before quoted, “if born in the country, is as much a citizen as the natural-born child of a citizen, and by operation of the same principle.”

Wong would have held up more than Elg in a birther’s mind because his parents stayed here. In Elg, her parents moved back to Switzerland and her father renounced his naturalized citizenship. SCOTUS determined that because Elg was moved to Switzerland when she was a minor AND she had not renounced her citizenship that she was still A NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.

We do not need to guess. All we need is the lawful public information to be released by DoH; index data for number 10641 would be a good start.

“…if born in the country, is as much a citizen as the natural-born child of a citizen, and by operation of the same principle.”

The sentence does not define a “natural born citizen”.

Compare your quote with the following:

A peanut butter sandwich is as much a sandwich as a jelly sandwich.

It does not make the peanut butter sandwich equal to jelly sandwich.

Legend (for those to slow to understand the above):
sandwitch = citizenship
peanut butter = born in country
jelly = natural born

Finally, the SCOTUS in WKA explicitly mentions that the ruling is related to Wong’s citizenship.

SCOTUS cited the Wong case to establish the Elg was a US citizen from the moment of her birth. You should have known this.

NC wrote: “WKA case confirms that children born in the USA of permanent resident parents are CITIZENS. It does not define the NBC.”

It does of course, to a degree just as Bingham. Wong established that being born on the soil of a nation, as had been English common law, makes you a natural born citizen of that nation regardless of your parentage (unless they were diplomats or invading armies).

Hold your horses!

The naturalization laws in the past tied wife’s naturalization with her husband’s one. When husband became a US citizen, his wife automatically became citizen as well.

http://www.sdhistory.org/arc/naturalizationarchives/naturalization_records.htm

“…An Act in 1855 allowed alien women to acquire citizenship by marrying a United States citizen, or upon his naturalization. A woman’s citizenship was directly tied to that of her husband. Women and children automatically received naturalization upon the husband or father’s naturalization. In 1907 a law was passed that took citizenship away from women if they married alien men. In 1922 women’s citizenship was considered separate…”

NC won’t give up unless people stop responding to him. He posts 40-50 times per day, which is pretty good evidence that he is unemployed and lives alone. Apparently, arguing — and pretending that he wins every argument — gives him a sense of purpose in his sorry, stunted life.

We’ve all seen every variation on NC’s arguments — we know exactly what he is going to say, and it basically all boils down to “NC is right because NC’s opinion is based on NC’s unassailable opinion.” We aren’t going to get anything new from NC by continuing to argue with him.

They have confirmed everything. Various individuals and organizations have checked with Hawaii DoH, as stated in the articles at factcheck.org and other places. The problem is, the department has been overwhelmed by people calling. They have been unable to do their regular work. The head of the department gave her final statement on the matter, as quoted above, and I would be willing to bet she has told staff in the department to not answer anymore inquiries into the matter. They have things to do other than answer the many individual callers/drop-ins that want to ask the same question. It is like you, and many like you, refuse to believe unless you get the answer personally. You don't want to take any one's word on it. Even the director of the department. Chances are she is a republican, as the governor is a republican, and they have a tendency to appoint people in their party to department head positions, but even if she isn't, she has no reason to mislead the public. You cannot possibly believe that their is a conspiracy to hide where he was born that encompasses even the heads of departments for the state. I don't see what would be gained by it- what's in it for them. Makes no sense. Why do you refuse to take her word? Why do you refuse to understand they just can't keep taking calls about this subject? Why can't you just accept that the president is as he has always said, a natural born citizen, born in the state of Hawaii? Why do you think he would try to fool the world, just to be president? It is the most thankless job in the world. You get all the blame and little of the credit. Even a young healthy man like the president is showing the strains of the office already- and he hasn't even been in a year. The last thing he needs is for you and your cronies to continue this futile quest for something you will not ever find. Anything truthful and definitive that says the president was born anywhere other than where has always been stated- In Honolulu, Hawaii on August 4, 1961.

Basically, by “report” NC means:

(2) Anything he can cut and paste from WND, AXJ or any other wingnut website;

(3) Anything his hero Orly Taitz has written;

(4) Anything his hero Chucky Lincoln has written for his hero Orly;

(5) NC's own opinions, no matter how many judges have disagreed with NC.

It is hilarious that NC can't accept a certified Certificate of Live Birth from the State of Hawaii but has no problem with the concept that Obama could be born in three different countries.

Did you read my post?
The DoH refuses to release the PUBLIC data. Not Obama's data, not DoH's data but public one.

Why is it difficult to:
a) Release a statement confirming that DoH issued a COLB to Obama on June 6, 2007,
b) Release the index data for registration number 10641,
c) Provide a link to State Manual describing filed “Filed By Registrar” vs. 'Accepted by State registrar”?

Put these on the government web site, let us see it.

The DoH is VIOLATING Hawaii state laws by refusing to provide this information to public. If there was nothing to hide, why would they behave in such way?

Kapiolani hospital is mighty shy of publicizing the letter from the White House (sent in January 2009). Soon after journalists started asking questions about its authenticity, the letter was pulled down from their web site. Are they not proud of the fact that a US President was born there, LOL?

You didn't read my post. They have done all of that they are required to do, many times over. They have stopped doing it. I think they probably made sure they were able to set a limit at some point. They have been inundated. Evidently, there are people out there with all the information you seek. It would seem that it didn't give them what they wanted so they don't want to share it and prove the point that he was born there. As far as confirming the date they issued the Certificate of Live Birth, perhaps they don't keep track. I asked my state because I had just obtained a certified Certificate to replace my misplaced certificate. They said they don't keep track of each one they issue, but because they are stamped with the embossed seal and dated, you only have to look at the certificate. My new certificate says “filed” just like the presidents. It has basically the same info on it. I know where I was born- of that there is no doubt. Same type of certificate as his but not like the one I misplaced. Sufficient proof for drivers license, passport, social security and all other governmental uses.

What don't you get about the fact the department has been slammed with people all seeking the same kind of information and that they can't continue to meet that demand and do their real daily work? It is the Hawaii Department of Health, not the Obama Department of Health. There are other people they have to serve. When you combine that with the fact that people are asking for a lot of info they are not entitled to receive, you can't blame them for stopping. This has gotten past the point of ridiculous.

If they do not keep track whether a COLB is issued and when (which I doubt), the DoH could simply say so. Yet they are silent when asked to confirm the June 6, 2007 date shown on Obama’s COLB.

But what NC won't note is that the same Honolulu Advertiser journalist, Will Hoover, later did his research, wrote that Obama was born in Honolulu, and wrote the following:

“Fringe theorists who insist Obama was born in Kenya are left to ponder how two independent Honolulu daily newspapers and the state Department of Health could be part of conspiracy half a century ago to thwart the truth about the future president of the United States.”

The registration is automatically reported to the newspapers.

This theory can be easily verified. We need a state manual from Hawaii explaining the status field on his COLB: “Filed by Registrar”.
It could indicate that initial registration did not have enough required evidence and it was not “Accepted by State Registrar”

This is for NBC,
The COLB posted on the internet is a copy of the one produced by the DoH of the State of Hawaii upon request by a party with standing according to Hawaiian law: Barack Obama himself. This COLB is all the evidence of his birth required by state law, federal law and the Dept. of State.

The fact that you don't accept it is YOUR problem. It is NOT a constitutional crisis. It is YOUR problem. It is not a threat to your liberty, it is YOUR hang-up.

No talk of Vattel or foreign birth certificates or misleading or mistaken news reports trumps the Hawaii produced COLB. No talk of “filed” versus whatever matter at all. No newspaper articles or translated phone interviews or letters of John Jay.

This is the bare bones fact of the matter. No amount of belly-aching or arguing will change any of that.

Here is the only way you can prove what you believe. You must uncover irrefutable evidence of wrong-doing or mismanagement in the Hawaii bureaucracy that controls the vital records in question. To be precise, you must uncover direct and physical proof of the falsity of the COLB provided by the State of Hawaii.

Your repeated claims that all you need to see is the long form and this “10641″ or whatever number you harp on is a red herring. It is an excuse for you to continue unabated in your erroneous believe. The State of Hawaii will not submit the document to anyone without standing, per the laws of their state enacted prior to these nonsensical shenanigans you call defense of freedom.

You have no evidence, none. Nothing that amounts to anything more than conjecture, hearsay or outright forgery. Valid proof is what is required in logical debate and our court of laws.

The longer you continue to hold on to your believe in the face of overwhelming evidence, the more cause people have to call you ignorant. I mean that in the strictest definition of the word: you are ignoring the facts. The longer you continue this charade, the more you open yourself up to the mental damage that accompanies cognitive dissonance.

These are the facts.

Do you trust everything said by a politician?
Obama's COLB posted on “factcheck.org” can be easily verified.

Joe Miller (“verification czar” from factcheck.org) never verified whether the registration number, shown on the document they posted, indeed corresponds to Obama.
Without it – how can anyone believe that the image posted on the web is a true representation of DoH records? That is the significance of the request for index data associated with number 10641. Again I am not talking about the actual birth certificate, but the index data (name, gender and vital event) associated with the number 10641.

According to Hawaii laws, index data is public information – any citizen has standing to ask for it.

Ask yourself why is it that DoH would rather violate the State law than release it? It is a trivial request (if Obama is telling the truth).

We live in a country of laws (that is what we have been told). A lawful request for public data should not be ignored by a government agency.

It is not a claim.
It is a theory based on the practice of handling birth certificates in another state. If the original submission does not have the necessary proof, the registrar files the submitted documents and asks for additional ones.

It can be easily verified – we need the DoH to release the manual, which describes the status field shown on Obama's COLB document: “Filed by Registrar”.

What is the meaning of that phrase? My theory is that the initial documentation was not sufficient to register his birth in Hawaii, that is why the COLB status does not say “Accepted by State Registrar” as shown in other COLB documents issued by the DoH.

The manual describing these two phrases has been hidden from public. According to Hawaii state laws the manual is a public document and should be posted on a government web site.

How do you know he never verified it? Do you have proof? Did you talk to him?

It has been documented that Hawaii printed out their COLB at Obamas request. IF you want to allege that he forged or altered it before submitting it to Factcheck you have to PROVE IT.

To be taken seriously, you can't just throw accusations around. You have a brand new accusation every time someone trashes your last one because you have NO PROOF.

If you believe Miller didn't verify something before posting it, you are accusing him of fraud. When someone makes an accusation, they must have some for of evidence to back it up – some form of PROOF.

How can anyone believe it is accurate? Because we have no evidence otherwise. Until to can conjure up some PROOF, we will continue to believe it. We believe it because the overwhelming preponderance of PROOF supports it.

The validity of COLB will be proven (or not) after DoH follows the law and issues a document that is in public domain.
You rely on DoH to continue ignoring the state law.

You should start with reading the UIPA law in Hawaii. Then follow it up with statute 338-18 (13 d)

This is such a trivial situation. A state manual explaining the meaning of the status field on Hawaii COLB documents is all that is needed to understand whether my theory is correct or not.

I am not relying on anything but a public document. It is an honest way of going about COLB verification.

You have complained about fake BC's floating on the internet. Now, when a simple and legitimate verification could be done – you are attacking it as well. In the past you were quick to cite the particular court case to support your arguments. No citations of any kind regarding the COLB verification issue?

It is obvious that you are not intersted in finding the truth about Obama's COLB because you are afraid of the possibility that he was not born in Hawaii.

I do not want to engage in explanations of any politician's motivation.

Any citizen has standing to obtain public documents from Hawaii DoH.

There are three possibilities about validity of COLB document:
a) The COLB document is valid and indicates Hawaii birth
b) The COLB document is valid and indicates that not enough data was supplied to support the Hawaiian birth
c) The COLB document is fake.

Option (c) could be discarded if DoH issues index data related to number 10641. If they come back and say that it belongs to Obama – option (c) is eliminated.

To eliminate option (b) we need the state manual describing the “Filed by Registrar” field. It could disprove my theory of birth registration via affidavit.

(2) Orly's controlling husband is pissed about her affair.

(3) The guy who wrote nearly all of Orly's pleadings no longer works for her.

(4) Orly faces possible sanctions in the Florida case, if not a malpractice action as well.

(5) Orly faces multiple disciplinary complaints at the California State Bar.

(6) Orly's protest of Bill O'Reilly was an utter failure.

(7) Orly filed a dreadful Motion for Reconsideration with Judge Carter, which will also be denied and could lead to further sanctions.

In the absence of proof, why do you not trust that the COLB is not valid? A simple answer will do.

Why did you not question the citizenship of John McCain? or Joe Biden for that matter. Biden is a heartbeat away, where are your questions about his COLB?

NC alleged that a “Comment” written by Obama for the Harvard Law Review was “hidden” (apparently because there is copyright protection). I provided NC with the volume and page, information on the location of the Alameda County Law Library, and I even confirmed through the online catalog that the volume in question was available on microfiche.

Comment posted November 17, 2009 @ 10:26 pm

Read my previous post. There is no possibility to prove that the COLB is fake or valid because DoH is hiding the public data.

The reason why I do not trust the COLB is simple:
1) Obama's birth has been reported in three different countries. To avoid confusion and noise generated on both sides of the issue, a simple verification can be done that does not require good will on Obama's part.

Since he will not authorize the release of the long form birth certificate, there are legal ways to conclude whether the COLB document is valid or not.

2) An image of a document (a *.jpg) file) posted on the web is very easy to modify. No government agency will accept an image posted on a web as a proof of qualification when somebody applies for a job.

The factcheck.org has published incorrect information about the expiration of Obama's Kenyan citizenship. It is obvious that they did not put much effort to verify the COLB document.

3) Even if the COLB is valid – we still do not know the meaning of the “Filed by Registrar” phrase. Once we learn its meaning, we will be know whether the COLB is based on the original birth certificate that confirms Hawaiian birth.

To learn how this phrase is used in Hawaii COLB documents, we need to look into the state manual that describes it. According to Hawaii laws, this manual is in public domain and should be made available upon request. A more practical solution is to put it on a government web site, as is the case with numerous other Hawaii government documents.

McCain's citizenship is not in question. His “natural born status” (NBC) is. I do not believe he is eligible because he was born outside the USA. NBC = born in the USA of citizen parents.

I am not aware that there were any reports of foreign births for either Joe Biden or above mentioned former presidents.

In Obama's case, we have THREE countries and two different Hawaii hospitals reported as his place of birth.
In addition candidates from minor parties asked for verification of his eligibility to be placed on the ballot – only to be ignored by secretaries of state.

A simple COLB verification can give us the answer whether Obama was born in Hawaii.

According to the State of Hawaii, no demand has been made to keep his records sealed beyond their independent laws, so your point is moot.

2.) Factcheck.org will sure be pleased to get your endorsement as the ONLY website where official documents are challenged or verified.

You are correct, no agency will accept a photo on a website. But no one is asking them to. Obama put it up there to show it to the public, a public who has no right to it according to Hawaiian law. He has the copy printed out and submitted to him upon request in June of 2007. Hawaii has stated repeatedly that this is their official version. Your assertion that no agency would accept a copy, while accurate, is ridiculous, since that photo is not the only copy.

3.) So the only reason you can't accept the document is the filed by registrar crap? Why don't you trust Obama or the Hawaiian officials when they say it is? Did you investigate Bush or Clinton or Bush Sr.s or Reagan's place of birth? An don't give us that BS about reported places of birth… No official from any foreign land has claimed Obama was born in such a place. Claims of foreign birth have been made by AMERICANS, not foreigners and they have not been proven in over two years. By your standards of proof any of these previous presidents could have been nor outside the US – why? Because I now make the claim. Here it is: I claim george W. Bush was actually born in Canada.

there you go, I said it. Our last president was not an NBC and everything he did is now null and void.

You are getting your information is poor places and then you demand a high level of proof from others. You are inconsistent and ignorant.

Does the following statement looks like an endorsement?

———————————————————————–

2) For every statement from Dr. Fukino, I will quote you three statements by Colin Powell, George Tennet or other high ranking government officials about WMDs in Iraq.

If there is a simple way to verify claims by government officials on important issues, I prefer to see the evidence rather than blindly follow.

3) I read articles and watched videos about presidents you mentioned. I am not aware of any claims that they were born abroad.

4) How do you know where I get the information from? Is your claim based on the speculation written by “bearclaw”?

Your are a complete idiot.

(1) Quote the portion of the Indiana Court of Appeals decision holding that the plaintiffs did not have standing. Here is the case:

http://www.in.gov/judiciary/opinions/pdf/111209…

(2) The Court of Appeals did not dismiss on the basis of standing. In fact, the word “standing” does not appear anywhere in the opinion, you complete moron. Try searching the opinion.

(3) The Court of Appeals did dismiss on the basis of “failure to state a claim on which relief may be granted.” Translation: even if Plaintiffs are right on the facts, they lose on the law because a person born in the United States is a natural born citizen within the meaning of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4. That isn't an advisory opinion — it was directly presented by the plaintiffs' claims.

(4) Some state courts may be able to give advisory opinions, but under Article III, the federal courts can only address real “cases and controversies.” Do you, moron, think federal courts can give advisory opinions? You think you know more than I do about the law? Then please cite the law or case stating that federal courts are free to give advisory opinions. O.K., idiot? Let's see you support your view.

Here is my proof, moron:

http://www.answers.com/topic/advisory-opinion

Isn't ironic? The principle that the federal courts do not issue advisory opinions dates back to a letter from Chief Justice John Jay to President George Washington, refusing to answer a question Washington presented to the court.

So where is your proof that I am wrong and that the federal courts can issue advisory opinions?

(5) Look at footnote 15 of the Indiana Court of Appeals decision. The court specifically states that it will not give an opinion on whether persons born outside the U.S. to parents who are citizens are “natural born citizens” because the plaintiffs did not properly present the issue to the court. In other words, the court won't give an advisory opinion — an opinion that is not necessary to resolving the case.

NC's latest:

In fact, the Indiana Court of Appeals did not dismiss on the basis of standing. In fact, the word “standing” does not even appear anywhere in the Court's opinion. And the Court didn't issue an advisory opinion. It stated that the plaintiffs failed to state a claim on which relief could be granted because a person born in the United States (Obama) is a “natural born citizen” within the meaning of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4.

NC is far dumber than a bag of nails.

1. Language used by court may be different but the essence is the same – plaintiffs had no chance to argue their case in court.

Why did courts use this tactic – to prevent the discovery phase. They want to rule on the issue without having a debate.

2. The three stooges from the Indiana court (or the law clerk who wrote the document) do not know how to count. This speaks volumes about the “quality” of their ruling. Quote from the footnote 14:

“…For all but forty-four people in our nation?s history (the forty-four Presidents), the dichotomy between who is a natural born citizen and who is a naturalized citizen under the Fourteenth Amendment is irrelevant….”

Have they heard that the eligibility requirement for vice-president is the same?

Have they heard about the fact that several of the early presidents were not natural born citizens, but citizens at the time when the Constitution was adopted?

3. In the same footnote they quote WKA:
“We note the fact that the Court in Wong Kim Ark did not actually pronounce the plaintiff a “natural born Citizen” using the Constitution?s Article II language is immaterial.”

SCOTUS did not officially pronounce the WKA an NBC, but the three stooges from Indiana can do it in Obama's case!?

To a non-lawyer the essence is the same – no debate in court. I may not used the precise language that a lawyer would use but my thoughts on the case are as follows:

The Appellate court was supposed to decide whether the motion to dismiss was properly granted by the lower court.

I thought that the meaning of that was simple: did plaintiffs have the legal basis for suing the Governor. I thought that the lower court decision was about the procedure – not the merits of the claim. After all, this was the basis for dismissal of eligibility lawsuits in the past.

When the Appellate court proceeded to define the NBC – it clearly went beyond the discussion about the procedure. To me this looks like an advisory opinion disguised as a ruling.

See what I did there? I offered you proof that allows me to accuse Powell, Cheney and the rest with a clear sense of logical integrity. That proof can be easily obtained simply by watching FRONTLINE.

3.) You are not aware of an CREDIBLE claims that any those President's were born abroad. Guess what, you may be aware of claims that Obama was born abroad, but they aren't credible. Why are you willing to lend credence to those claims, when you fail to place those very same claims under the harsh microscope under which you place the State of Hawaii? The MOST credible claim being made by ANY official from any state province or nation is being made by Hawaii, yet you use the other claims, wholly without merit and not made by officials as somesort of basis to question the most credible – again all of this WITHOUT A SHRED OF PROOF.

4.) I am guessing where you get your info because it the same info I see spread by racist opportunists who will cling to any last desperate shred of their theory in the effort to not have to confront the ugly truth.

It's immature of you ignore the truth, that's what do. You keep talking about “easily verifiable” but that is a bullshit argument. In this country, in our courts there is a bar you must clear. As soon as you claim the suspicions that the COLB form Hawaii is potentially suspect, you must have proof to go on. You have none. The courts are an extension of a rule we extend to our entire society. Someone at work may think you a thief (probably not) and a moron (most definitely). They may say you stole something. They can say it to your face all the want, just like you can scream INDEX DATA! FILED BY REGISTRAR! all you want. But when you co-worker takes that accusation to your superior, things change. Now that co-worker needs proof. She is leveling an accusation and through that action attempting to have to painted as thief, removed from your position and even arrested.

Oh yeah, cut out the bullshit about “low ranking” you have no credible claim to being an expert in Hawaii bureaucratic hierarchy and as far as you or anyone else knows this is the proper official to perform a task as mundane as fulfilling COLB requests. See… a COLB request is actually a fairly mundane and everyday task. The fact that it is the President's COLB, a President you hate, make's it important in your mind.

There is no requirement anywhere for Obama to post anything at all. Regardless, he did and in fact he made history by being the ONLY president in US history to prove he is a natural born citizen by releasing his birth certificate. You took every other president’s word for it alone; for this black man, you reject the proven fact. Why is that?

The web dissemination of his COLB is simply a courtesy to the public; it is not the document itself. There is no practical way to hand-delivery one piece of paper to 300 million Americans. Should we put his BC on tour like King Tut’s memorabilia?

I am NOT talking about the original birth certificate or paper copy of COLB.

NC says:
“I do not care about any rumors about birth certificate from another country.

NC says earlier:
“The reason why I do not trust the COLB is simple:
1) Obama's birth has been reported in three different countries. “

So which is it? You care about the COLB because of reports of foreign birth or rumors of foreign birth don't matter to you?

I am still waiting for answers on
1.) Why you never checked into the birth records of other presidents
2.) Where you stand on foreign laws trumping American laws
3.) Confirmation that you understand that the internet COLB is a copy of a real document and that the posting of that copy was a gesture by Obama and in no way constitutes any sort of official notification you can protest.
4.) Proof of wrongdoing in Hawaii
5.) Whether or not factcheck.org is the ONLY factchecking site on the web
6.) Whether or not you have personally sought from Hawaii the public “index data” and this potentially mythic manual that will double for a dictionary in defining for the word “filed” and who a “registrar” is.

You are late to the party to understand the complete context of the conversation based only on few previous posts.

I had debates with “bearclaw” about judge Carter and the discovery process in that case.

Bearclaw argued that Carter does not have standing to remove the sitting president.

My argument was that this would not be have been necessary. The discovery process could have answered the question whether the rights of minor party candidates were violated. If that were the case, a monetary damage could have been awarded to Keyes and Co and the political questions could have been left for Congress to deal with.

Bearclaw said that Court did not work that way, Carter could not skip the standing and issue advisory oppinion. He had to dismiss the case on standing without going into the merits of the case.

Now we have a situation where Appelate court in Indiana rules on the procedure by affirming the motion for dismiss from lower court and then proceeds on arguing the merits of the case, even though the merits were not debated in the lower court.

NC does not provide answers. Don't expect them. Part of the Zen of dealing with NC is detachment from NC's responses (difficult, I admit, and I often fail in this department). NC is in this for attention. NC's emotional needs are fed when people respond to NC, either by answering NC's questions (which will be followed by more questions) or by insulting NC. NC does not get any emotional bang from answering questions. If you don't respond to several of NC's posts, NC begins to whine that s/he is being ignored.

My assumption is that NC is either unemployed or underemployed, is ashamed of his/her lack of status, blames “affirmative action” for his/her lack of success (NC went on a rant about Obama and affirmative action last week), particularly hates blacks, and finds that blogging here gives him/her a feeling of importance and interaction that NC does not get in what otherwise is probably a very lonely and unsatisfying existence.

Newspaper reports of Obama's foreign birth are only important to indicate that there was a confusion about his birthplace.

I do not care about foreign documents. Obama's birthplace can be verified using PUBLIC data (according to Hawaii laws).

1) There were no reports of foreign birth for any recent presidents.
Even if there were, I was not eligible to vote in US presidential elections until 2004 – therefore it was not an issue that intereseted me at the time.

2) No foreign laws should trump US laws.

3) COLB could be a copy of a real and valid document. That is what I am trying to verify. That is the reason for asking for the lawful release of index data for record number 10641, state manuals, etc..

COLB could be valid and still not confirm the Hawaiian birth (that is why we need to examine the meaning of “Filed By Registrar” phrase) .

4) There is no proof – unitl the lawful process of obtaining public document is executed, there is no way to prove that DoH is doing something wrong.

the DoH is violating Hawaii laws in not releasing the public data, which creates a perception of obstructionist behavior. I am entitled to have my opinion on why they behave in such manner.

5) Factcheck.org is the only place that claimed to have seen the physical COLB document provided to them by the Obama campaign.

6) I have not presonally asked the DoH for index data for a simple reason: After reading about emails between Donofrio and group of other people asking for such data, I did not want to ask the same question and “crowd the lines”, thus making it more difficult for them to deal with the DoH. I limited my role to spreading the information about it on the web.

There is no dictionary in the world that will tell you the difference between phrases “Filed by Registrar” and “Accepted by State Registrar” as used by the DoH on COLB documents. The manual describing their meaning is in public domain and it should be posted on a government web site for everyone to see as is the case with numerous other government documents.
That would reduce the number of calls to DoH.

US Constitution requires that only natural born citizens are eligible. This is the law we follow. It is the US law that disqualifies Obama, not the British one.

The intention for using the NBC phrase in the eligibility requirement was to prevent a foreigner from becoming a commander of US military. Only a person with undivided loyalty at birth is eligible to run for POTUS.

Obama is not an NBC because of his dual citizenship at birth and possibly because of the foreign birth (yet to be determined).

Great, let's go:
1.) Are they actual credible newspaper reports in 1961 about his foreign birth? Not newspaper reports from Kenya in which relatives celebrate Barack's birth in Hawaii, mind you. Or are there instead modern newspaper stories reporting on the deranged factoids of people like Corsi and Donofrio?
Also, these so called reports create confusion. Was this confusion not cleared up by the COLB and the statements of Fukino or the absolute 100% complete and total lack of statements from Kenya or Indonesia? If so, why not? What motivation do you have faced first with confusion then faced with multiple pieces of data to dismiss that data? This is what I want to hear from you.

2.) If no foreign laws should trump US law, then why do reports, not even reports, RUMORS (unsubstantiated and debunked) of foreign birth trump the State of Hawaii?

3.) So you admit, the COLB is a real and valid document until you receive proof otherwise. Not the other way around, it is not a document waiting to be verified – remember innocent until proven guilty – it is a valid document subject to review with proof of forgery. You want verification, I know I know -but you're not entitled to it, nor are we entitled to serve your insane needs.

Also, do you even know this manual even exists? I mean, did Leo tell you about it? Because here in IL, there is no manual.

4.) Sure there is proof. There can be all sorts of proof besides making sure these numbers you have match up. You could talk to people who worked in the DoH and uncover a conspiracy to forge records. Or these people could tell you about database errors or lost records that were never revealed to be lost. There are numerous scenarios where the much ballyhooed index data would not be at all instrumental in covering errors or malfeasance. So… get to work!

5.) Sure, but I guess all the other sites missed the boat then, eh? They totally missed the years of news reports. They missed Lou Dobbs and O'Reilly giving the story prime time legs. I mean, surely someone else jumped on the story and uncovered the horrible truth none of us wants to admit, right? right? wrong. Where is the expose listing all the websites who begged and pleaded for the campaign to let them see it?

6.) So you haven't. Out of courtesy to the Hawaiians, the same Hawaiians that you slander with your nonsense? You just read some blogs posts and that was enough for you. What is it about Leo D that you believe in that can't extend the same understanding to Obama or Fukino or the good people of Hawaii who have worked so hard in the DoH for decades?

7.) Where is this manual you speak of. Have you asked Hawaii for it or have you read somewhere that there simply must be one to explain this complex and varied bureaucratic terms. And where did “accepted by State Registrar” come from? I see the filed thing on the COLB, but what about the other one? Is it from some magical blog you read? For the record, a basic understanding of English and a dictionary at hand can define “Filed by Registrar” as “placed among official records prescribed by law through the agency of an official record keeper.” I know I know, they could speak a totally different kind of English in Hawaii – what a load of bull crap. Tell em this, why on earth would a state government spend the time and money to keep documents on filed that were not verified by the proper channels? In what universe do people create reams of official documents for information (held for over 30 fucking years) that is pending?

“But all i want is verification and all this will go away, why are they hiding it?”

Why are you hiding from the police in your basement. Many people hear have said they believe you are mentally unstable and live in a basement. By your standards, that is enough for me to believe that you are clearly hiding from State Mental Health officials for fear of losing your recently naturalized status. Prove to me that you're not hiding from the police to stay in my beautiful country?

You are correct. I do not trust an Obama friendly unofficial web site for any proof of his eligibility.

If the DoH were corrupt to the point that they would put a fake document on the web – there would be no reasonable chance of fighting them at this time.

I belive that they would not put a fake document on an official web site and risk being prosecuted in the future.
Dr.Fukino's statements are carefully worded to imply the meaning that is not necessarily there – enough for a lawyer to have a wiggle room.
Put her under oath to testify that she saw the original birth certificate (indicating Obama's Hawaiian birth) and I will trust her words.

Since this is not going to happen, the only legal way to verify her words and COLB document is the release of DoH documents in PUBLIC domain.

From the comment from FactCheck.org:

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.”

You need to read SCOTUS opinions in Perkins v Elg and Wong. Elg is more important than Wong because both of her parents were born in Sweden. Her parents came to the U.S. and she was born in New York City. She had dual citizenship at that point. Her parents moved her back to Sweden, and her father that became a naturalized citizen, renounced his U.S. Citizenship. However, she decided to return to the United States by her 21st birthday and never swore allegence to Sweden. SCOTUS found her to be a natural born citizen. That was in 1939. Since then, Congress has changed the law to where a person born in the U.S. and taken out of the country as a minor can return to the U.S. by the age of 25 and still be a natural born citizen.

I was born in a hospital in a state that has been part of the union for a long time. My replacement certificate for the birth certificate I misplaced, other than being from a different state, is very much like President Obama's COLB. I know my information was submitted by the hospital to the registrar, but mine also says filed, not accepted. I looked at the birth certificate I have for my older sister who was born at home on the ranch and delivered by my grandmother, and her certificate says filed, and yet her birth was registered by filling out the affidavit that was signed by my grandmother as the person who delivered her. I have two other siblings that were born at home and there certificates say filed. As do the certificates of the rest of us who were born in the hospital. Out of eight of us, whether born in a hospital or at home, we covered five different states. All of us have certificates that say the same thing- filed. So I can only conclude that filed is common among states, and it means they have the information needed to file the birth. Not part of the information, but all of it. There is no evidence to suggest the president was not born in a hospital but there is evidence via the story of another mom who was in the same hospital at the same time to have her babies, that he was born in the hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii as he, along with others, have said.

The only information that he was born somewhere other than Hawaii has come from people who do not want him in office and have tried to come up with ways to get him out. I have no doubt they have manufactured or have knowledge that it was manufactured, any supposed proof that the president was born anywhere else. Whether they don't want him office because he is a democrat or because he is black, they are manufacturing. If you look at what is there, even the 2 newspapers notice of birth, the fact that factcheck.org examined the actual piece of paper that has the embossed seal of Hawaii and the appropriate signature stamp and the security paper that it is printed on, there is much more evidence that he was born where and when stated. To try to claim otherwise, no matter the excuses you come up with, is grasping at straws to save a drowning cause. It won't work because you are wrong. I have so many more important things to do that I am not going to worry about your delusions and inability to accept those things you cannot change. I will keep looking for the Oily slapdowns that get posted here, but will not try to change your mind.

My answer to your question about international vs. US laws was related to the issue of using the International War Crimes court and international laws for prosecuting administration officials. This was your original question before movig the debate to the top of the thread.

When it comes to the citizenship laws, for people with dual citizenship, appropriate laws of both countries should be followed.

According to US law in 1961, If Obama was born outside the US, his mother was too young to automatically confer her US citizenship to him. If he was born outside the USA Obama was British citizen at birth.

If he was born in the USA he was dual citizen at birth.

It is a widely known fact that his father was a foreigner. We do not need to consult the “fightthesmears.com” to determine whether Obama jr. was dual citizen at birth. We can read applicable US laws at that time.

“Fightthesmears.com” does not show the COLB registration number. At the bottom of the COLB document it says that any alteration invalidates the document.

In Elg case, parents were naturalized USA citizens prior to her birth. She was born in the USA of citizen parents, therefore she was a natural born citizen. The fact that she was taken to Sweden as a child did not affect her status at birth.

This is quite different from Obama's case – his father was not a US citizen at the time of his birth.

The Appelate court affirmed the motion to dismiss and then proceeded to discuss the case on merits. This was exatly the opposite from bearclaw's claim about rules that judge Carter had to follow. Neither Carter nor any other eligibility case judge ruled on NBC definition.

I called the Appelate Court ruling “advisory opinion” because nobody asked them to rule on the merits of the case. Did anybody have a chance to argue the case in front of the Appelate Court?

Is the Indiana court unique when compared to other courts who dismissed the eligibility cases based on standing?

You assume that Obama was born in USA. If that is the case he was dual citizen at birth.

The same is true for Ark (citizen at birth). The Elg case is different because both parents were US citizens, therefore child was not only a citizen at birth but a natural born citizen.

The only relevant status in Elg case is at birth. The fact that her father renounced the US citizenship after her birth does not affect her status in the eyes of the US law.

A dual citizen at birth owes allegiance to another country in addition to US. The same is true for US born children of residents and illegals.

The COLB is a different issue because the independent verification is impossible if the Hawaii DoH refuses to release the public data.

“This case could now be appealed to the Indiana Supreme Court, which will only review it if it wants to do so, and is not binding on other state or federal courts. But an “Order for Publication” is not for nothing and its influence will be felt as more Birther cases reach other courts, as every single Defense filing cites it in the future. Should the Indiana Supreme Court refuse to review, the only recourse is the US Supreme Court, which can also refuse to review, and probably will.”

A minor can not owe allegiance because they're not educated enough to know what allegiance is. If they are born here, then it is common sense that their allegiance is first and foremost to the country where they were born. If they renounce their citizenship after they have become adults, then they are no longer U.S. citizens. However, at the time of their birth, they are considered natural born citizens. The only exception to this would be if the parents were citizens of another country and were ambassadors to this country. Then, US law states the allegiance of the child is to that of the country of their parents.

No need to guess about COLB status field (Filed vs. Accepted) . We can read about it in the state manual (once Hawaii DoH releases it to the public).

The story about COLB is similar – it would be very easy to verify its authenticity if DoH released the data in public domain. I do not understand why is it a big deal to Obama supporters if people want to verify the COLB? If you are 100% sure that Obama is telling the truth – there is no need for you to argue with anyone asking for verification. You could even encourage it because it will only confirm what you already know, right?

1) The newspaper birth announcements cannot confirm whether Obama's birth was registered based on an affidavit from a relative.

The unwillingness to provide the long form birth cerificate and the behavior of Kapiolani hospital and DoH indicate that something is not quite right.

Instead of speculating, we can verify the COLB validity using the DoH data in public domain. (When DoH decides to stop violating the law and release such data).

2) Rumors are not relevant – there is a legal way to confirm the validity of COLB. That is all that matters. It will either confirm or deny Obama's story.

3) Manual does exist. Several years ago Hawaii DoH converted to use the electronic database. It is highly unlikely that DoH would undergo such task without providing written description of functional requirements to programmers.

No need to guess or speculate: the DoH will explain the definition of those terms used on COLB documents.

There are COLBs posted on the web that contain both phrases. It should not be a problem for DoH to publish the explanation on their web page. It will save them lot of time from answering phone calls and emails.

US citizens have the right to see the public data maintained by the DoH. Are you advocating a denial of those rights?

What is your definition of the phrase “natural childbirth”? Are you referring to a medical term or citizenship attribute?

My view on the NBC definition:
natural born citizen means that no man-made law is needed to determine the citizenship of such person at birth. By the law of nature such child belongs to only one country.
There is only one such definition: Born in the country of citizen parents.

Only in this case there is no doubt about citizenship or possible split loyalties at birth.

It also fits perfectly into the original motive for the inclusion of this phrase into the Constitution: national security measure to prevent foreigners from obtaining command of US military.

Here is the latest lie from NC, and all the funnier because I don't think NC realizes how easy it is to pull up my past comments.

NC's lies: “I did my reasearch and this is the topic that bearclaw resents the most because he has no answer for it.

The source of NBC phrase is the letter from John Jay to George Washington.

The essence is simple: He asks for the strong check that a foreigner would not be eligible to become a commander of US military.

The phrase was included into Constitution without any debate.”

My answer to NC, posted 5 days ago:

“1) John Jay was not a delegate to the Constitutional Convention.

(2) His letter to George Washington of July 25, 1787 is very short, proposes that the commander-in-chief of the army be a “natural born citizen” but nowhere defines what that phrase means.

(3) George Washington was not a member of the Committee of Eleven that drafted the “natural born citizen” requirement. There is no evidence he discussed John Jay's letter with the Committee of Eleven.

(4) John Jay never mentions the phrase “natural born citizen” in any of his other surviving correspondence, let alone in correspondence during the Constitutional Convention. Searchable database of letters:

http://www.familytales.org/results.php?tla=joj

(5) John Jay was a co-author of the Federalist Papers. The Federalist Papers do not ever discuss the “natural born citizen” requirement or its possible meaning. Searchable Federalist Papers:”
http://www.foundingfathers.info/federalistpapers/

The phrase “natural born citizen” was proposed by the Committee of Eleven, without explanation, and approved by the Constitutional Convention without debate. NC's notion that the phrase came from John Jay's letter is speculation that assumes several things NC cannot possibly prove. Moreover, John Jay's letter does not propose a definition of “natural born citizen”. That is the funniest part. It is NC's opinion that the “Founding Fathers” must have meant “natural born citizen” to mean “born in the U.S. to two citizen parents” but ultimately the sources of that conclusion are (a) NC's own opinion of what John Jay “must have meant” by the phrase, and (b) NC's assumption that the John Jay's letter was influential on the Committee of Eleven, even though NC has no evidence that any member of the Committee of Eleven ever saw the letter.

This is what I mean when I say that NC's argument goes around in circles. Right now he is in the “Kenyan daddy” phase of the Birftard Cycle of Dementia, and as usual NC is acting as if his arguments have never been shredded. They have. Multiple times. But NC will keep lying. It is what NC does.

I've already explained that in the United States, NC, we have the “Federal Government” and 50 “States.” I would have thought you learned about this in order to become a citizen, but maybe you are lying about becoming a citizen. You lie about everything else. The federal courts are governed by Article III of the Constitution, and the requirement of a real “case or controversy.” Article III does not apply to state courts. “Standing” rules for state courts are governed by — surprise — state law, including state constitutions. There are — surprise — 50 state constitutions. Guess what? They aren't all the same. It follows that rules of “standing” can differ among the 50 states.

Now, if the Indiana case ultimately goes to the U.S. Supreme Court, that Court is governed by Article III, and might find that the plaintiffs lacked Article III standing.

Good think I can pull this comment back up in few days when you conveniently “forget” that I have already explained this to you.

Conclusion: No conspiracy here. Just different rules, which is what happens when you have a U.S. Constitution and 50 different state constitutions.

Thank you for the clarification.

I have trouble understanding the following excerpt from the Indiana court ruling (page 5):

“..Initially, we note that the Plaintiffs do not cite to any authority recognizing that the Governor has a duty to determine the eligibility of a party?s nominee for the presidency. The Plaintiffs do not cite to authority, nor do they develop a cogent legal argument stating that a certificate of ascertainment has any relation to the eligibility of the candidates. However, we note that even if the Governor does have such a duty, for the reasons below we cannot say that President Barack Obama or Senator John McCain was not eligible to become President. We will handle each of Plaintiffs? arguments in turn…”

First they made the ruling that motion to dismiss from the lower court was properly granted. So far so good. The chances are that this decision is proper.

By going further and defining the NBC they are making a pre-emptive strike against eligibility lawsuits. The last two sentences are not necessary unless you want to engage in judicial activism.

If you appeal the Indiana court ruling to a higher court, what would be a basis for the appeal, motion to dismiss or NBC definition?

If the legal option is limited to motion to dismiss, the chances are that no other court will rule differently. In that case, the court has entered the NBC definition into the US case law for other judges to follow without any debate about it.

Is it possible to appeal the Indiana Court decision based on their definition of NBC? If it is possible than I don't mind them making such decision.

If it is not possible to challenge their NBC definition – that would be an example of what my initial claim of judicial activism is all about. They issued an opinion (not using the AO phrase here :-) that cannot be debated or appealed to a higher court.

There is no other source for the inclusion of the NBC phrase into Constitution. I asked you about it and you could not provide it. There is none.

George Washington had “some” influence in political life at that time to discuss the issue with people who wrote the draft of the Constitution. You are completely dismissing this possibility but not providing an alternative source.

In the absence of any alternative proposal that includes the NBC phrase, John Jay's letter cannot be dismissed as you tried.

The letter does not explicitly say what the definition of an NBC is – however it provides a clear motivation on why the phrase is needed. You conveniently avoid to acknowledge this fact.

If you know the motivation for using this phrase, the definition is easy to understand.

1.) no no no. You don't get out of this one. point 1.) is about you having nay credible evidence that Obama or any other President was every born outside the US. Point .1) is not platform for you to circle back around for your “verification” sob story. If you hav no credible evidence of foreign birth, that leads us to .2)

2.) Again, not a platform for you to return to your verification nonsense. We all know you want verification.. I understand that 100% this is about your motivation for wanting it. Point 2.) is asking you why – if US law trumps foreign law – why things like rumor (which carry less wight that fact or law) trump the official proclamations of the State of Hawaii. This all goes back to needing proof to question the validity of the State of Hawaii.

“but I can't get proof as long as they hold the document hostage illegally!” I have addressed this and you have not responded. there are other ways for you to attain proof and until you try to obtain these alledgedly hiding documents for yourself, we cannot believe you becasue you assertions are based on allegations from blogs, which you yourself have said you cannot trust.

3.) You say “manual does exist” out of pure speculation.

Again, allow me to repeat myself ad nauseum. You have very right to think you need verification, but you have no right to demand it from us, from Hawaii or from anyone else. Your lack of faith in face of evidence is YOUR problem.

I have posted this explanation before but you did not see it:
We can use the process of elimination to come up with the definition of NBC. There are only three possibilities in the (citizen at birth category):

a) born a citizen (includes foreign born children of US citizens)
b) born in the US (includes children of illegal aliens)
c) born in US of citizen parents (most strict definition)

In 1790 US Congress passed a law (An Act to Establish An Uniform Rule of Naturalization) that extended the “natural born citizen” status to foreign born children of US citizens.
Five years later, the law was repealed and replaced with the one that declared foreign born children of US citizens to be citizens.

The early Congress made a clear distinction between the terms “Natural Born Citizen (NBC)” and “citizen at birth”.
This clearly indicates that option (a) is not the definition of an NBC.

The problem with definition (b) is simple: it qualifies children of illegal aliens to be eligible for POTUS.
In his letter to Washington, John Jay asked for a “strong check” that a foreigner could not become a commander of US military. He suggested the use of phrase “NBC”.

The idea that a child born in the USA of illegal immigrants would qualify to be a CiC, while foreign born children of US citizens (on a military deployment) would not qualify is clearly absurd and opposite to the original intention for eligibility requirement. It is a matter of national security that a CiC has only single loyalty at birth: to the USA.

By showing that options (a) and (b) are not correct, only option (c) remains.

This is also the only definition that is bulletproof in a sense that nobody has any doubts that such citizens are NBCs.

Your concept of the actual application of reason when it comes to law and research is fundamentally flawed.

The absence of alternative does not give you reason to apply John Jay's letter without an actual direct connection that you can prove.

If there is no proof Washington did not meet or communicate with the Group of 11, you cannot plug him without direct proof.

In law the motivation for a phrase that holds standing in application does not entirely include motivation, as you suggest. Especially when the source you cite for motivation does not include an actual definition.

Also, your understanding of Washington's influence on the writing of the US Constitution is incorrect. Washington was even surprised to be elected President and reluctant to assume such high office. Many of the customs we still hold today r.e. Presidential behavior stem from his unease with political power.

Lastly, using the absence of evidence to plug in evidence with no direct correlation and them sell that package as the last word is not only intellectually flawed and lazy but it ignores all the case law since that time.

“But his Dad and British Law!” US law trumps British law. His mothers status as an NBC combined with his birth in the US (as proved by the State of Hawaii held as fact by the courts regardless of your objections) fulfills all requirements.

The fact there there is no definiton that one or two parents does not prove your point. It only means there is no definiton

John Jay does not matter.

It is not accepted that Congress made a clear distinction between NBC and Citizen at Birth and, frankly, I would be interested in hearing an explanation about how those two phrases mean something different from each other. I would like to see something from an English language prof of Law scholar explaining how those two phrases are have a fundamental difference.

Plaintiffs claim essentially presented the following two part argument: (1) the Governor of Indiana has a duty to make a determination regarding the eligibility of Presidential candidates, and (2) if the Governor had fulfilled that duty, he would have found Barack Obama and John McCain ineligible.

The Indiana Court of Appeals chose to resolve the case by saying: we don't need to decide whether the Governor has to determine eligibility, because the candidates were, in any event, eligible. Personally, if I were in the shoes of the Court of Appeals judges, I would have tried to resolve the matter on the first part of the argument, because most courts try to avoid deciding federal constitutional issues if there are “non-constitutional” grounds for deciding the matter. But there is nothing I am aware of that would absolutely prohibit the Indiana Court of Appeals from proceeding as it did.

I don't know what you mean about there being no “debate” in front of the Court of Appeals about the meaning of “natural born citizen.” It is clear the plaintiffs submitted written arguments, and they may have had oral argument. But please notice that they were “pro se”: no lawyers trying to present their own case, representing themselves. The Court notes the plaintiffs did a lousy job of arguing their case — making no cogent argument about John McCain's eligibility, for example.

I think you misunderstand the meaning of “Motion to Dismiss.” Defendants can move to dismiss on many grounds, for example: Court lacks jurisdiction over the subject matter; plaintiffs lack standing to present the claim. In this case, it appears that it was dismissed because, even if the facts alleged by the plaintiffs were true, they would necessarily lose the lawsuit on the merits because Obama — under the facts alleged — was eligible.

“No other source”: This argument is only going to be persuasive if you can put John Jay's letter into the hands of the Committee of Eleven. Show some historical evidence that they saw the letter. If you can't, your argument that the letter is a “source” is just speculation.

John Jay's letter states:

“Permit me to hint, whether it would be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the Commander in Chief of the American army shall not be given to nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen.”

No definition of “natural born citizen.” Yes, John Jay expresses concern about protection of key government roles from “the admission of Foreigners.” But it is merely your opinion that they would have considered someone born in the United States, with a parent who was also a citizen (at birth), raised by that parent and by his materal grandparents (also citizens — at birth) to be such a threat to national security as not to be a “natural born citizen.” That is YOUR conclusion, based on what YOU think is necessary for national security. You are entitled to your opinion. Your opinion is not law until you can persuade a court to agree with you. Good luck with that.

I can also argue strongly that both Ark and Elg apply to Obama. Especially Ark because Ark's Chinese parents were decided to have engaged in good faith commerce. As Obama's father was as a student this can be considered good faith commerce.

The first draft of the Constitution did not include the NBC phrase. Yet shortly after John Jay's letter the phrase is in. Draw your own conclusions.

While asking for a direct link between the letter and the Committee of Eleven, you have no competing source to explain the inclusion of the NBC phrase into Constitution.

There was a proposal by Hamilton, but he wanted to use the phrase “born a citizen”. This is another indication that founding fathers did not consider the NBC to have the same meaning as “born a citizen” (BaC). If they did, the phrase BaC would have been used in the Constitution.

John Jay argues for a >>> strong <<< check that a foreigner will not be able to command the US military.

You have to have a simple rule not subject to interpretations (a natural rule). NBC is just that. Only a person with the exclusive loyalty to USA is eligible because such person will have easier time deciding about the use of military against a foreign country.

We have discussed this issue before. A hypothetical scenario from WW2. Let us assume that Harry Truman had a Japanese parent. Would he have made the same decision about using nuclear weapons to end the war, saving countless lives of US soldiers in the process?

There are other references to the definition of a “natural born citizen”, John Bingham (author of the Section 1 of the 14th Amendment) is very clear on this issue.

Eligibility requirement for POTUS is not a right. It is a national security measure. NBC is not the only restriction on who qualifies to run for POTUS (there is age and residency restriction as well).

Similarly, being a citizen does not give me the right to national security clearance. I would have to go through a screening process to obtain one.

All citizens have the same civil rights guaranteed by the Constitution. Ark case guarantees those rights to children born in the USA of premanent resident parents.

Five years later, the law was repealed and replaced with the one that declared foreign born children of US citizens to be citizens.

We have the same law and two different phrases used. It is obvious that there would have been no need to change the law if the phrases had the same meaning.

Obama does not belong to option (c) because he had dual loyalty at birth.

And of course you did not in anyway answer my question. You stated “”There is only one type of citizenship. All citizens are equal in their rights and responsibilities.” Ark and Elg are standing case law that extends citizenship to Obama.

NO, it is not clear. Synonyms not being the same word does not constitute a binding legal framework.

The 1790 law and it's repealed version are not applicable because Obama was born in Hawaii according to State and Federal Law. Also, here from a link You yourself provided is information that debunks the assertion that the 1790 act repealed:
“1790 First Congress, Act of March 26th, 1790, 1 Stat. 103.

“And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond the sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens: Provided, That the right of citizenship shall not descend to persons whose fathers have never been resident in the United States”.

1795 Act of January 29, 1795. Section 3, 1 Stat. 414, 415. (Same general provisions as above). “

He does not have dual loyalty at both because American law trumps British Law.

So what did John Bingham say? I assume you mean this: “[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…. . “

Age and residency mentioned in my previous posts are those specified in eligibility requirement for POTUS (35 years of age, 14 years residence in the USA.)

I mentioned security clearance as an example of measure that is not a right of a citizen, guaranteed by the Constitution.

A naturalized citizen gets all the rights as other citizens. The same is true for any citizen at birth including Obama (assuming he was born in the USA).

Constitution never says that NBC is a right. It cannot be – it is an attribute of citizenhip (path to a citizenship).

No SCOTUS case has specifically ruled on what the NBC phrase is. Therefore you cannot use any case to extend it to Obama.

The only definition where SCOTUS ruling is not even necessary is the one that says “born in the USA of citizen parents”. Only this definition requires no arguing whther such person is eligible. It ensures exclusive loyalty at birth. It confrms to the natural law as well.

No man-made laws are needed to determine the citizenship at birth for such person.

Amen. NC fundamentally does not trust the voters. NC views “NBC” as a national security concern: will we have a President with undivided allegiance. But what NC doesn't grasp, is that in every Presidential election, the voters have to decide that question anyway. My grandmother, for example, was convinced in 1960 that JFK (a natural born citizen even by NC's definition) was going to give control of the U.S. to the Pope. Numerous people claimed in 2008 that Barack Obama's allegiance was to the interest of blacks, not the U.S. as a whole. John Adams was accused of being a monarchist. In every election, the voters are faced with the decision of who will best serve the nation. The Supreme Court doesn't need to decide between our definition of NBC and NC's definition, because in a democracy, that difference is really a political question best addressed by each voter.

You cannot provide that proof that. I only ask you to bring the proof since you seem so attached to proof yourself.

You cannot provide any proof that a debate took place between Hamiltons suggestion and Jay suggestion. That Jay's language is in the document doesn't mean that Hamiltons concerns, or wording is invalid by comparison. Also, nothing in Jay's letter indicates that different phrases would transgress his concerns.

You are splitting verbal hairs and you have no prove, in the absence of proof – you use conjecture and pass it off as a fact that must be acknowledged – any professor would tell you your method is incorrect.

No it does not. But that does not prevent an appeal from citing the ruling and disputing it. Our legal system is very flexible.

Incidentally, the ruling doesn't actually define NBC, it outlines now current legal precedent was avoided by counsel and how that same precedent would be used against them.

I don’t know the rule for appeals to the Indiana Supreme Court (likely the next step). In most states, the State Supreme Court has discretion to refuse to review cases that it requested to review.

It is also possible that the Indiana Supreme Court, on review, could choose to affirm the Court of Appeals, but on different grounds (“right, but for the wrong reasons”). For example, the Indiana Supreme Court could hold that the Governor is not required to determine the eligibility of Presidential candidates. “Affirmed on other grounds.” End of story.

The U.S. Supreme Court reviews a very low percentage of the cases for which it receives a Petition for Writ of Certiorari. I doubt it would review this one. For one thing, from the Indiana Court of Appeals decision, I can’t tell who “Steve Ankeny” and “Bill Kruse” are. It is entirely possible that they would not meet the “injury in fact” standard for standing in federal court, and on that basis alone the U.S. Supreme Court would either deny the Petition for Writ of Certiorari, or if the Court grants the Petition, would subsequently dismiss it as improvidently granted.

It is also unlikely the U.S. Supreme Court would hear a case about the definition of “natural born citizen” that is targeted at a sitting President. Simply granting a Petition for Writ of Certiorari would create immense uncertainty regarding the ability of the President to act as the head of the Executive Branch and the Commander-in-Chief. The members of the Court are aware (and ever more aware since the uproar and criticism over Bush v. Gore) that they are appointed for life. They are not elected. Even raising the spectre that they would review the legitimacy of a sitting President (elected by the votes of over 69 million Americans) in a court proceeding (as opposed to in the impeachment process, which is politically accountable) would threaten the legitimacy of the Court itself.

One other point. These are serious issues. The Super Bowl is just a football game. Don’t confuse the two.

And there is a reason that your side of the argument is populated with pro se plaintiffs and third or fourth rate lawyers (Orly Taitz, Phil Berg and Leo Donofrio). Good luck finding a “major league” Supreme Court appellate lawyer willing to argue your side of the case. They will have to check their brains and integrity at the door.

A vote does not “overrule” anything. You admit the Supreme Court has never rules specifically on “natural born citizen” in the context of Presidential eligibility. I agree — it hasn't happened. Voters who voted for Obama weren't “overruling” anything — they just implicitly didn't agree with your definition.

There are aspects of the Constitution that are left to the political branches of our federal government to interpret and implement. The Constitution requires that every state guarantee to its citizens a “republican form of government.” The Supreme Court has held that the meaning of that phrase is for Congress and the President to interpret and implement. It is, in legal parlance, a “political question” the courts leave to the political branches of government.

Under my interpretation of “NBC” a person who was a citizen at the time of birth is eligible to be President. Under your definition, only a person born in the U.S. to two citizen parents is eligible to be President.

Why should the U.S. Supreme Court decide between those two definitions? If the concern is “national security,” then that is a realm where the Courts have relatively little to say compared with the electorate, which at every election weighs the qualifications of candidates to protect our national security. Some people thought John McCain would be great because he had military experience. Others thought he was a war monger (“bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran”). Some thought Obama was dangerously naive, others thought he was rational, calm and careful. We have to look at all of those qualities. The difference between your definition and ours can be left to the voters.

One other note: what do you do with “born in the U.S. of two citizen parents” the first time you have a candidate born of a mother who gave birth through in vitro fertilization from an anonymous sperm donor? Do we have to find out the citizenship of the sperm donor? I'd leave it to the voters. They don't always make the best decisions, but democracy is better than the alternatives.

They provided three specific eligibility requirements:
14 years residency
35 years of age
natural born citizen

I believe that NBC is as equally definitive as the other two.

To change any of these requirements you need to amend the Constitution. Simple vote is not enough. Vote in Congress is not enough.

Someone made the great comment about NC, to the effect: “He wants the placenta!”

That got me thinking.

One thing courts don't like to do is to render opinions that will lead to even more difficult issues. In that light, I would like to contrast two possible definitions of “natural born citizen”:

Definition 1 (NC's definition): “born in the United States to two parents who are citizens.” This test is “sui generis”, i.e., it does not exist anywhere else in our law. As NC has noted repeatedly, we cannot use U.S. law on who is a “citizen” to make the determination.

Definition 2 (my definition): “a citizen of the United States at the time of birth.” Under my definition, a person can be a “natural born citizen” by virtue of being born in the United States, regardless of the citizenship of parent or parents (we won't get into the issue of children born to foreign diplomats, etc.) A person can also be a natural born citizen by virtue of being born outside the United States to a U.S. citizen (there are some limits) or to two U.S. citizens. Basically, you just apply U.S. citizenship law that was in effect when the child was born.

Now let's have some fun with these definitions.

Hypothetical #1: U.S. citizen single mother gives birth in U.S. to child after in vitro fertilization from an anonymous sperm donor. Under my definition, this is easy: NBC on two separate grounds (born in U.S.; a citizen parent). Under NC's definition, the court will have to decide whether a person with only one known parent meets the “two citizen parents” formulation that NC has given us. If two citizen parents really are required, is the child ineligible to become President because he or she cannot prove the citizenship of the sperm donor?

Hypothetical #2: Same as above, except the mother knows the identity of the sperm donor, who was a citizen of Australia, but under the law of the state where the child is born, the sperm donor has no parental rights. Under my definition, this is easy: NBC. Under NC's definition, we again face the question of whether the child is eligible because the only legal parent at birth is a U.S. citizen, ineligible because it has only one legal parent at birth (can't meet “two citizen parent” test) or is ineligible because, regardless of state law, the fact that the sperm donor is known to be an Australian citizen means the child can't be a natural born citizen for purposes of the U.S. Constitution.

Hypothetical #3: U.S. Citizen single mother gives birth in U.S. after having intercourse with identical twins. You guessed it: one twin was a citizen of U.S., other a citizen of Kenya. Under my definition, easy call: NBC. Under NC's definition, you have to figure out which identical twin was the father.

Hypothetical #4: U.S. citizen impregnated by her husband, a citizen of Russia. Her husband dies before child is born in U.S. Is child eligible? Under my definition, easy: yes. Under NC's definition, we are faced with several questions: must a person have two parents at birth to meet the “two citizen parent” test (child clearly only has one parent at birth). Is the child eligible because its only parent at birth was a U.S. citizen, or ineligible because child's known father was a foreign national (uh oh, “dual allegiance”)?

Hypothetical #5: U.S. citizen gives birth to child in U.S. Father is a citizen of Italy, but he is not present at the birth as is found dead of a heart attack shortly after child is born. Is child eligible? Under my definition, easy: yes. Under NC's definition, we might have to establish the father's precise time of death. If he died before child was born, is child eligible? Maybe, maybe not: child has only one parent at birth, but that parent was a citizen. If father died after child was born, then child is not eligible.

Hypothetical #6: U.S. citizen mother gives birth to child in her house in U.S. She is alone and there are no clocks in the room. Her husband, a citizen of Peru, is at the federal courthouse being sworn in as a U.S. citizen. Is the child eligible? Under my definition, easy: yes. Under NC's definition, you have to know the precise time of the child's birth and of the father becoming a citizen.

Hypothetical #7: U.S. citizen single mother gives birth to child in U.S. Because her parents hate her foreign (Austrian) boyfriend, another friend (a U.S. citizen) agrees to let her identify him as the father. Under the law of the state in which the child is born, this creates a legal presumption that he is the father. Child grows up knowing that Austrian citizen is his real biological father, but no paternity litigation ever occurs. Under my definition, child is clearly a natural born citizen. Under NC's definition, you have to determine whether the child is eligible because his birth certificate identifies a U.S. citizen as his legal father, or ineligible (despite state law) because child knows his real father was a foreigner (dual allegiance).

Hypothetical #8: U.S. citizen woman is fertile, but has a health condition that does not allow her to carry child to term. Her egg, fertilized with sperm of her U.S. citizen husband, is implanted in her sister, a citizen of South Africa, who acts as a surrogate. Child is born in U.S., and raised by the two U.S. citizen parents, who are legally considered parents by the law of the state in which the child is born and raised. The child knows his South African aunt gave birth to him. Is child eligible? Under my definition: yes, definitely. Under NC's definition, you have to ask what John Jay meant when NC says John Jay must have thought “two citizen parents.” Surrogacy was medically impossible in the 1700s. A South African citizen gave birth to the baby. In the 1700s, there was no doubt, was there, that the person who gave birth to you was your mother, a “parent”? Won't the child feel “dual allegiance” knowing that his South African aunt gave birth to him. Hmmm . . . a puzzler.

Have fun thinking up more!

You forgot to include examples of children of illegal aliens, children of terrorists who infiltrated the USA, foreign country agents who came to USA with the specific goal to groom a future president,…

When you talk about timing, there is no difference between your examples and the requirement that a person must be 35 years old and 14 years resident of USA. Wouldn't you have to check the exact time for a person whose 35th birthday is close to the cutoff time?

Other cases you mentioned: – mother and father listed on the birth certificate is what counts. The time of birth is also listed on the birth certificate. Even if it is an approximate time – the one recorded on the official document is what counts.

Nobody is giving DNA tests today to prove who the father of a child is, there would be no need to do it in the future. If both parents listed on the birth certificate were US citizens at the time when baby was born, the child is considered an NBC.

If your definition were correct, the eligibility requirement would have been the same as the one proposed by Hamilton: “Born A Citizen”. Yet this is not what was included into Constitution.
There would be no need for early Congress to change the phrase “natural born citizen” (1790 law) to citizen (1795 law).

NBC is a simple eligibility rule to qualify candidate to be on the presidential ballot.

Form that point onward – the voters are in control.

The NBC is an additional insurance that a candidate, who owes allegiance to another country (at birth), does not have a chance to become a CiC.

If you don't like the rule – there is a process to change the Constitution.

What would the birth certificate for in-vitro baby say about the father?

If nothing is listed – than not an NBC.

Why – motivation for NBC is national security. If information about father is not listed, no need to guess – not eligible.
Otherwise, this scenario could be exploited as a loophole to circumvent the NBC eligibility rule.

That is why we need a ruling by the Supreme Court. Either NBC has a specific meaning (not susceptible to the change of citizenship laws) or it does not.

Under the Independence Constitution of Kenya, Obama became a Kenyan citizen on December 12, 1963. There is no record that he has ever renounced his Kenyan citizenship. On his senate web site, Obama tap dances around his own dual nationality when discussing his father. Obama obviously knows, because his father told him, that he also held/holds Kenyan nationality.
Once again, we find Barry O concealing fascinating information about his identity. There is nothing unusual about dual nationality. Indeed, ancient Roman Law doctrines of jus sanguini and jus soli come into play, because both Kenya and the U. S. recognize dual nationality. Once again, the issue is not “legality.” The issue is the cover-up; Obama’s concealment of his own identity. From us, and most of all from himself.
Obama was also registered in both of the Jakarta schools he attended as a citizen of Indonesia. Does he also enjoy Indonesian citizenship? Inquiring minds want to know. In August, 1985, Obama travels to Kenya for the first time. (Some reports have the year as 1986, and some as late as 1988)
Obama's 40-year-old cousin Said Hussein Obama commented, “My cousin found it difficult when he came here to learn of his six half-brothers and sisters were born to four different mothers.

Back to SCOTUS cases. I look at NBC through a national security “prism”. There is no right to run for POTUS – therefore it cannot be protected. Similarly you are either 35 years old or you are not – if NBC was a right, the age requirement would be a discrimination against younger persons.

NBC is a restriction on who is eligible to run for POTUS. It is not in the same category as citizenship rights.
Citizenship rights, extended to those born in the USA regardless of their parent' status, are same for all citizens: freedom of speech, right to bear arms,…

A young woman – let's say born and grew up in the heartland of the US – gives birth to a child out of wedlock and doesn't know who the father is because she had many sexual partners, so on the BC, father is listed as unknown. Or perhaps she was raped and doesn't know the identity of the father. Because of this, NC contends the child is not a natural born citizen and qualified to run as president.

And don't argue that the possible father was a US citizen because it could be possible the father came from Kenya. Maybe was a foreign exchange student. But for arguments sake, let's say the mother was raped by the father and didn't know who the father was. However, God knows the father was Kenyan born and owed his allegiance to Kenya. But since the mother doesn't know this and lists the child's father on the BC as unknown, this would not qualify the child as natural born because NC wouldn't believe the child is a NBC.

On the BC, the father is listed as unknown but GOD KNOWS that the child's father is a terrorist. Further more, it was the terrorists intention to rape a woman here to impregnate her so that his child would grow up to be president. Under NC's definition, this child would not be a natural born citizen.

Sure his father owes allegiance, but I don't care about that because American Law trumps British Law. A statement I've made numerous times, that you've agreed to but conveniently forget.

The change of phrase indicates nothing but a change of phrase. YOU are the one assigning meaning to the change of phrase. However, you have no documentation that any debate or concern EVER TOOK PLACE.

The meaning of the change of wording is being assigned by you and you alone. You are then using the meaning that YOU assigned to give meaning to other issues. Those issues you then try to turn into the smoking gun that proves BOs ineligibility.

I can admit that I have no evidence that the Founders considered the phase “natural born citizen” to be EXACTLY the same as “born citizen” or “citizen at birth”. Whereas, no have no evidence that they didn't.

Neither of us can make a definitive claim to the meaning of the wording of NBC as found in the Constitution.

Actually, we both agree that their motivation was to prevent foreigners from holding high office.

And I understand, you believe that since they used Jay wording, you believe they share Jay motivation. We all actually agree.

However, as we have pointed out, it is not proven that Jay himself had the influence you would like to lend him nor, as we have pointed out numerous times, does Jay DEFINE HIS TERM.

You therefore believe that the word “natural” carries some supernatural power. You've tried to argue that citizenship is somehow a component of some natural law. I strenuously disagree with that, as I have stated. Nationhood and citizenship are human philosophical concepts are not natural. However, your attempt to define the word “natural” as it applies to the phrase NBC reveals that you know there there really is no difference between “natural born citizen” and “born citizen”.

I believe all 8 of his hypotheticals could be elected to high office. Could children of illegal aliens pass the bar set by the public and the media to be elected? Could the child of a terrorist? As far as the foreign agent goes, that is ridiculous.

Governments do not and cannot legislate to prevent conspiracies. To legislate with the goal of closing every imaginable loop-hole and scenario is to force society to grind to a halt. Every possible imaginable scenario to circumvent the law can be carried out by a group of determined individuals.

P.S. As far illegals go. Illegals are probably covered under Ark. “The constitution nowhere defines the meaning of these words [citizen and natural born citizen], either by way of inclusion or of exclusion, except in so far as this is done by the affirmative declaration that 'all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States.”

“ooh ooh but see, they might not be NBC!” says you. I say give it a rest.

Exact time? Are you suggesting that a qualified candidate elected by a majority would be ineligible if sworn in on their birthday is the swearing in took place before the time of day they were actually born? Is this the lunacy you are suggesting?

In your quest to turn this circle firing squad around to the next point in your cavalcade of ignorance, you have admitted something. You just admitted that if Ann Stanley had gotten a Hawaiian friend on the BC instead of BOs actual father – that you would have no problem with his Presidency. You have just admitted that you would be ok with BO if his mother had a track record of lying on official documents. Aren't you the one screaming bloody hell over possible violations in the DoH in Hawaii (allegations you have no proof of, btw)?

“Nobody is giving DNA tests today to prove who the father of a child is” You're missing the point. Bearclaw correctly states that by your definition, DNA tests would be required.

“If your definition were correct, the eligibility requirement would have been the same as the one proposed by Hamilton: “Born A Citizen”.

“Mother and father listed on the birth certificate is what counts.”

O.K., you are really making it interesting for me now!

I'm curious what you think should happen under your “two citizen parents” test if the father is not known, and therefore there is no father listed on the birth certificate. Is the child eligible or ineligible?

And note how eligibility for the Presidency turns on State law regarding who is listed on the birth certificate.

Hypothetical: U.S. citizen woman bears the biological child of man who was a Russian citizen, but whom she never married. Before child is born, she marries a man who is a U.S. citizen. “State A” says the father listed on the birth certificate is the biological father, if known. “State B” stays the father listed on the birth certificate is the mother's husband, if she is married at the time of the birth. Under the “NC” test, child is ineligible if born in State A, eligible if born in State B.

Given your concern about national security and “dual allegiance,” would it make any difference to you whether the child is raised knowing that his or her biological father was a Russian citizen?

If mother doesn't know who the father was, and child doesn't know who the father was, how does the child grow up with a “dual allegiance”?

The child is born in the U.S. and the only parent the child knows is a U.S. citizen. Are you concerned that “foreign genes” might somehow influence the child?

I agree. That really is the point of the hypotheticals. Why leave decisions like that to a court, when (as NC demonstrates) the real question that is being asked is: do we trust this person to seek and protect the best interests of the United States? If a person was a citizen at birth, they should be considered “eligible” and if individual voters want to set a higher standard than that, they are free to do so at the ballot box.

But what if states, for reasons of tracking DNA, inherited diseases, etc., decide to start listing on the BC each individual who contributed DNA to the child? Does a child meet NC's “two citizen parents” test if the child has two citizen parents, but a third parent who was not a citizen?

Or what of the situation where two U.S. citizen women are married (to each other), one becomes pregnant (with current technology, there would have to be a sperm donor), and the sperm donor is known to be a foreign national? Does eligibility depend on who gets listed on the BC according to the law of the state in question? What if federal law doesn't recognize a marriage between two women — is a BC with two U.S. citizen women as “parents” enough to establish eligibility if federal law doesn't recognize the marriage?

It wouldn’t say anything about a father unless the mother was a married woman, than the husbands name would go on it. Or if she has a boyfriend who wanted the child to have his name and was there to sign the paperwork.
However, most clinics who accept any kind of bodily fluids, have requirements. Frequently, that includes where a donor has lived and or traveled because of the possibility of passing on certain diseases. I can’t say for sure of every IVF clinic, but I know some of them want you to be a citizen to donate. But it really doesn’t matter. If a citizen mother gives birth to a child in this country, that child is a NBC because sperm has no memory. There would be no allegiance to any country other than the one the child was raised to love. And of course, with an absent father, a child would have no opportunity to foster an allegiance to another country if that parent wasn’t there to foster it. President Obama was not raised with his Kenyan father, had no reason to foster any strong feeling for his fathers country. While, on the other hand, being with his grandparents, who were members of the “greatest generation” gave him ample opportunity to foster a love of his country of birth, enough where he is willing to serve her.

NC says:
“No man-made laws are needed to determine the citizenship at birth for such person.” is an awkward statement.

A better explanation: Only laws of a single country apply in determining the citizenship at birth. There is no allegiance to another country by either soil or blood.

Not only have you completely contradicted yourself but you have also made null, by your own statement, the concept that BOs father being Kenyan implies allegiance through birth.

In your first state you say that extra-human, divine or natural law creates NBCs when one is born in a nation of two citizen parents. Now, even though a nation-state is a completely 100% philosophical entity created out of arbitrary lines on a map, you believe citizenship, which is a type of legal being, is created by some natural process. Like predation or fight-or-flight.

but in your second statement, you do say human laws apply. And then you go on to say only one countries laws apply (US over Britian) and then you, with this statement:
“There is no allegiance to another country by either soil or blood.”
You are arguing that BO did NOT have allegiance to Kenya through his father. Which I whole-heartedly agree with.

I need help with understanding and fully describing NC's theory of the patriotism of sperm.

NC states below that if a single U.S. citizen woman gives birth to a child in the U.S., by an anonyous sperm donor, and no father is listed on the birth certificate, then the child is ineligible to be President.

Elsewhere, NC has explained that his/her definition of “natural born citizen” is necessary to guard against a President with “dual allegiance.” But if a child is born in the U.S., and the child's only known parent is a U.S. citizen, where could the “dual allegiance” possibly come from?

I can only conclude that NC has scientifically determined that “dual allegiance” is carried in sperm.

Can anyone explain how this works? O.K., the sperm of men born as U.S. citizens bear allegiance to the U.S. (and often an even greater allegiance to beer and certain sports teams, but we'll leave that aside for the moment). But what happens when a foreign male becomes a naturalized citizen? I've been to naturalization ceremonies, and I don't remember a part where the sperm of new male citizens swore allegiance to the U.S. Is there some magical incantation involved?

And if sperm can carry allegiance to foreign powers, what do we do with the following hypothetical: U.S. citizen woman marries foreign male, and becomes pregnant by him. Before child is born (in U.S.), husband becomes a naturalized citizen. Is the child eligible to be President? Both parents were citizens at the time of the child's birth. But the child is the product of sperm that, at the time of fertilization of the ovum, bore allegiance to a foreign country. Does the naturalization ceremony also affect the male genetic material that already has fertilized an ovum?

I'm puzzled. Where is “Ask Dr. Science” when you need it? I welcome your insights.

You are arguing with yourself.

The NBC phrase is there to assure exclusive loyalty to one country at birth. This includes place of birth and citizenship of both parents at the time of birth (not conception).

If there is no information on birth certificate to indicate who the father is – too bad. Not an NBC.

No need for fancy debates – a rule is a rule.
Read the original birth certificate and test it against the rule.

You could use all kinds of arguments to criticize the NBC rule based on allegiance using McCain's example. If you don't like the NBC phrase in the eligibility requirement, if you think it is obsolete – change the Constitution.

Well, how are you going to explain to the school kids how come a large percentage of them can't grow up to be president? When I was in school, it was easy. Their parents came in to teach at the University for a term and we had a class discussion on why some of us could become president and why the visitors could not. Now, we need to check the BC of every child so that we can properly explain to them why and why not they can be president. Or, do you propose we lie to them?

It is a two step process. First, eligible candidates are placed on the ballot, then voters have the final word.

NBC rule is an additional assurance that person with exclusive loyalty (at birth) to the USA is commander of the military.

Hey, NC. What if a woman's sister's husband's daughter best girlfriend has a child and the name on the BC for the father is the daughter's sister's brother's best friend's dad? But the dad was born in Saudi Arabia, migrated to Green Land, moved to Washington state and was eventually naturalized here and then moved back to Saudi Arabia but only after the child was born? Would that child be eligible for the presidency?

There is no record that Obama renounced his citizenship to Kenya because there is no 'rule' that he had to. He came back to the United States before age 25 and decided he wanted United States citizenship. And since he took an oath to uphold the Constitution when he became a Senator in addition to when he was elected President, it is clear that he is a U. S. citizen.

New Oprah and the rest of the media are full of heartwarming stories about the first women to become a US president. Stories about JFK, and the rest of the family are all over the TV, small donations from all over the globe pour into her election coffers, and finally Victoria is elected to be the president of the USA.

At the same time William (who had no other children) became a king of England.

If the eligibility for POTUS was a right, than all citizens would qualify to run.

The requirement that person be 35 years of age would violate rights of those younger than 35.

The rights of those citizens who were residents of USA for less than 14 years would have been violated.

The NBC requirement would be a violation of rights for all citizens except those born in the USA of citizen parents.

You don't understand my hypothetical. Assume that the U.S. citizen woman has an affidavit from the sperm clinic, verifying that the sperm donor is anonymous. In other words, the woman clearly is not hiding a “secret identity” of the father. (Sperm clinics routinely run this way, because sperm donors don't want their “children” to show up on the doorstep years later.)

You have based your rule on avoiding “dual allegiance.” If the father truly is not known, why is the child not eligible? Where would the “dual allegiance” come from? Do you really believe that allegiance to a foreign power can be carried in sperm?

Do you mean you didn’t know that birth certificates didn’t exist in the Eighteenth Century??? Do you think people were born in hospitals then? Jimmy Carter was the first President born in a hospital.

http://www.nps.gov/pub_aff/pres/trivia.htm

Sometimes the birth was recorded in a family Bible. Sometimes it was reflected in church records, but those typically were baptismal records, not birth records. And often the first governmental record of a child’s existence was a census, which might be years after the child was born and typically recorded the child’s age in years, not the specific date of birth.

You recognize that methods of keeping information can change, yet YOU have created an absolute constitutional requirement that a child have two citizen parents, and that the names of those parents be recorded on a birth certificate.

If you want to require that, there is a process for amending the Constitution to do so.

Please save the contributions story for uninformed. How much money got into Obama's coffers via small contributions from questionable sources:

http://voices.washingtonpost.com/44/2008/10/05/…

“…At the heart of the RNC complaint is a federal fundraising rule that lets campaigns accept donations under $200 without itemizing the names and addresses of the donors on its campaign finance reports. The rule was intended as a matter of practicality — it did not seem reasonable to ask a campaign to gather that information from every five-dollar donor.
But the Obama campaign has raised more than $200 million this way, a staggering sum for donations that will not be subjected to outside scrutiny….”

If, for ANY reason, the name of the father is not on the birth certificate – child is not an NBC. Think of it as a rule you feed to a computer and computer decides who is eligible to run. No sobbing stories of difficult life would have any impact on qualification, just the facts.

The principle of having the “exclusive loyalty to USA” (or not having a “dual loyalty at birth”) is translated into the process of verification of facts.

You cannot say you don’t need any other law to determine citizenship for something that is completely man-made, you HAVE to define who would be a citizen, or natural born Citizen, or there would be NO citizenship at all. But, even then, the natural circumstances of your birth would be WHERE you are born, parents citizenship would have nothing to do with it. The “natural” part that you cling to would be the actual birth itself, it would happen naturally whether the parent are US citizens or not. So, by your own standards that you have set up above, natural born citizen would be the process of being born in the USA…citizenship of the parents would have nothing to do with it, since citizenship is not a “natural” happening in nature but a man-made creation. You can’t have it both ways, you can’t claim it must be “natural” and then use a “man-made” or not “natural” definitions.

NC said: “Such person is a citizen “by soil” and “by blood” and not by “immigration or naturalization law”. The natural circumstances at your birth: place and parents determine citizenship of such person, not an immigration law of one or more countries.”

But, you further admit that the child of 2 naturalized citizens IS eligible for POTUS, since they are citizens at the time of birth. But, what MADE them citizens? Was is not immigration and naturalization laws of the country you’re going to become a citizen of? Doesn’t that now put your own statement at odds with YOUR definition? That PROVES you need a written law/definition for “natural born Citizen” in order to properly define what it is, since your statement is in DIRECT conflict with itself.

So, now, I have proven that your statement is incorrect in 2 ways. One, citizenship is not a “natural” occurrence so if you use the “natural” birth argument without any law to define it, you can’t use citizenship of the parents because citizenship is not “natural” it is man-made. So just being born in the country, which is a “natural” occurrence, will bestow NBC rights on the child. Second, you claim that “immigration or naturalization law” cannot be used to determine NBC status, and then agree that if the parents followed “immigration and naturalization laws” and became citizens their child would magically become eligible to run for the President. That is in direct conflict with your statement above. So, which is it, laws cover it or they don’t?

“Once you accept the concept of a country with national boundaries as man-made creation, you do not need any other law to determine citizenship of a person born in a country of parents who are citizens of that country.”
So, your saying that citizenship is a natural condition that is predicated on a human philosophical concept? Are you for real? Once you decided that a nation exists, if you want to make a distinction between those that belong and don’t you are making more laws. You are arguing that the born with two citizen parents is a given and doesn’t even need to be spelled out, in this response. But in other responses you are saying that we absolutely have to have a rule establishing a NBC status. So either it needs a law to spell out NBC or it doesn’t, which is it?

WAIT! I get it. “Such person is a citizen “by soil” and “by blood” and not by “immigration or naturalization law”. The natural circumstances at your birth: place and parents determine citizenship of such person, not an immigration law of one or more countries.”

NC is arguing that ONLY NATIVE AMERICAN INDIANS CAN BE PRESIDENT!

“Obviously, in case of children of naturalized citizens, BC would not be sufficient proof. You would need to look into the naturalization record for parent(s) to verify that parents were US citizens at the time of baby’s birth.”

Well, you don’t look Jewish. Your last name could be German or it could be Jewish. You’re a Chrisitian. However, we looked into the birth records of your Mother and found out that she was Jewish. Sure, she died at childbirth and your were raised by Veteran of the Kaiser’s War, but by blood we now have to deny you basic human rights and herd you into camps to be exterminated.

Yeah, I know – running for President isn’t a right. I am highlighting (yet again) the insanity of your need for things like loyalty and patriotism to be carried THROUGH OUR FUCKING BLOOD!

Tell me, at which point does the blood of parents from a foreign land, switch allegiance from the old country to the new country? What biological process happen that officially flip the switch? I would love to know, because nothing beats rhetorical arguments for certainty than science. (I now, at this point, would put money on you being a creationist)

Also, after explaining these biological processes, maybe you point out the part of the Constitution that tells us we need to use these processes as our yardstick.

Why are you telling ME to ask Dean Choper? You are the one who disagrees with him and has concluded that one of the leading Constitutional Law scholars in the nation is a “political hack.” You said you live near Berkeley. Why don’t YOU contact him, and arrange a public debate on the subject? You know so much, you should have him begging for mercy in under a minute, right?

But we know you won’t do that.

Your reliance on the change in statutes (1790 and 1795) is comical. Do you have any legislative history (i.e., records of congressional debate) to demonstrate why Congress dropped the term “natural born citizen”? If not, you are once again assuming that you have THE ONLY plausible explanation. You do not, and for that reason, a Court is not going to rely on the inference you are making. I will give you several other plausible explanations:

(1) Congress decided that it didn’t want to develop a comprehensive definition of “natural born citizen” and therefore feared that to define children born overseas to Americans as “natural born citizens” might, by implication, lead to the conclusion that those children are the only “natural born citizens.”

(2) Congress could have decided that use of the term “natural born citizen” in a law expressly dealing with naturalization might create the implication that naturalized citizens could become “natural born citizens” by act of Congress.

(3) Congress might have decided not to use the term “natural born citizen” because that term is relevant only to eligibility for the Presidency, and it was unnecessary in an ordinary statute addressing naturalization of citizens to create the notion that there are different “tiers” of citizenship.

What we do know for certain is that Congress never proffered a comprehensive definition of “natural born citizen”. For example, Congress never passed a statute adopting your definition of “natural born citizen.” Without that, and without legislative history, you have nothing that would be persuasive with a court.

I don't know. You'll have to ask NC. NC said that a child born of a U.S. citizen mother, who was impregnated through a certifiably anonymous sperm donor, is not eligible. NC said, “if the mother didn't care [about the "father's" identity], why should we?

But NC applies the same “rule” to a child born of U.S. citizen mother who gives birth after being raped by an unknown rapist, who is never caught.

I don't see any other conclusion than that NC truly believes that loyalty to a foreign nation is carried in sperm.

What if, a wife is raped by an illegal alien. The couple find out she's pregnant sometime later, but are not sure by whom and decide to keep the child. They are listed as parents on the all so golden birth certificate that NC's hanging onto now. Years later…around 49, let's say, their wonderful, A student, attorney, politician son wins the election for president. A couple of years into his administration, it is commented on how little the President looks like his father and how much he looks like the old attacker. DNA tests prove the president is the son of the illegal alien. Does he have to be immediately removed, or was it an honest mistake made by loving american citizens not to have, 49 years earlier, ever want to blame the child for something the child had absolutely no responsibility happening? In other words, do you immediately throw the country into total turmoil, or would congress have to decide the answer?

If you say Obama, was born in Hawaii, not Kenya, then he was born a dual national British/USA and is British/USA from birth worldwide. Had he been born in and living in Kenya during the 1963 transition, then he would be Kenyan, since the transition only affected residents. But, as you say, he was in Hawaii, he was not in Kenya, but far from Kenya, during the transition; then his personal status remains British/USA worldwide. A dual national cannot be POTUS, 230 years after the adoption of the Constitution.

NBC, should be a requirement of US Senate and the House, since the Senate is the birthplace of our laws, and the Congress, ratifies treaties. The indirect foreign influence of US laws or policy, affecting the lives and incomes of US citizens, and the conflict of interest of congress members, must be avoided. Example, in CAlifornia we have a Latino Legislative Caucus (born in Mexico, Central America,South America), who seem spend time advocating on the behalf of “immigrants”. But they lump the illegal aliens and non-citizens under that label, so illegal aliens and non-citizens get unlawful benefits at the expense of USA citizens.

NBC is not a right or a privilege. NBC is a circumstance of birth between two citizens. An alien whether resident or not cannot create an NBC, but can create a national or a “native” citizen. A native citizen, naturalized citizen and NBC have the same rights, but only NBC can be POTUS. Persons who are Nationals of the United States who are not citizens owe allegiance to the United States and are entitled to the consular protection of the United States when abroad, and to U.S. documentation, such as U.S. passports with appropriate endorsements. They are not
entitled to voting representation in Congress and, under most state laws, are not entitled to vote in Federal, state, or local elections except in their place of birth.

So, NC, even your cohort in believing Obama is not eligible admits there is absolutely no problem with dual allegiance.

Initially the law does not consider the biology of conception and only regards the presumed parentage and nationalities at the moment of childbirth. However, this does not preclude a post birth challenge to the biology of conception, if sufficient doubts are raised. But the outcome of the challenge may rest on the availability of evidence or testimony.

Dual allegiance is an uncertainty, and relies on unpredicted actions. But, dual nationality from birth is a certainty, as it relies on known circumstances. If you say Obama was born in Hawaii, not Kenya, then he was born a dual British/USA and is British/USA from birth worldwide. Had he been born in and living in Kenya during the independence, then he would be Kenyan, since the transition only affected residents. But, if he was in Hawaii, he was not in Kenya, but far from Kenya, during the transition; then his personal status remains British/USA worldwide. A dual national cannot be POTUS, 232 years after the adoption of the Constitution. Was Obama present at the time of adoption of the Constitution? Not likely. Therefore, he cannot be eligible for POTUS.

Really? So all those years we went to school and were doing it wrong in constitution class? Now, let me see, what will we need to do to let a child know that they can or can not run for president. Well, obviously we’ll need the birth certificate. Then, all those without a father listed will have to be told they’re not eligible, even though their mothers have never even been outside the USA in her life, maybe even fought to defend the constitution from froeign invaders. Kind of mean there to tell a little child the only reason he can’t be president because of some made up rule by NC. Then, of course they’ll have to bring in their parent’s proof of citizenship…can’t have any of those foreigners sneaking in. Then, if either parent is naturalized, they’ll have to bring in the naturalization papers that will have a time/date stamp to compare with the birth certificate and make sure the parent(s) were naturalized before the child was born. Maybe we should just separate the kids at birth, you know, those who are NBC and those who are just second class citizens.

And oh yes – that applies regardless of whether William has any legitimate children or not. If he does not have any children born within lawful wedlock as defined to the subject to the Royal Marriage Act*, the succession devolves to his younger brother Harry, followed by Harry's legitimate children, their uncle the Duke of York followed by his daughters Beatrice and Eugenie, their uncle the Earl of Wessex and his children, and their aunt Anne and her children, Peter and Zara Phillips. An illegitimate child would have no chance whatsoever of inheriting, making this theoretical even stupider than it seems.

*This prohibits William from marrying without the consent of his grandmother, the ruling monarch. It also prohibits him from marrying a Roman Catholic and keeping his place in the succession. Since the Kennedys are Roman Catholic, any marriage between William of Wales and a Kennedy woman would remove him from the succession, so I am assuming that this theoretical child would be illegitimate.

What about children of divorce? What difference does a few years make? What's to say the same imagined moral degradation is any different if the parents decided not to stay together during incubation or after?

The more you folks for some imagined purity of birth circumstance, the more you argue for the collapse of the American Dream. Isn't the dream of this Nation that anyone of sound-mind and ambition can achieve great things? Isn't it the philosophy of our Founders that those who through luck and determination and skill combined, inspire to lead can then be judged worthy by a majority of their peers to do so?

As with the majority of court documents filed by OilyTaters, this filing was filled with inaccurate information and claims, as well as speculation, rumors and down right lies. It doesn't matter when it was filed if it's wrong. Absolutely crazy. And by the way, the president is president beginning at noon on the 20th day of January of the year following an election in November of the preceding year. Even if the oath has not been taken.

First though, the declaration that Americans couldn't travel to Pakistan in 1981 is false and has been proven to be false.

Second, even if Barack Obama's step-parent signed him up as Barry Soroeto for school, Barack was 6 years old and cannot be held responsible for what adults did. It may have been a convenience. I, at times, used my new married name as my kids last name for various reasons, though never where the legal name was required under U.S. law. But even if he had been adopted by his step-parent, a parent cannot do anything to a child's US citizenship. That is the child's and only the holder, upon reaching a majority age, could ever remove their own citizenship. So, no matter what his step-father did, he remained a US citizen. If Oily was a REAL attorney, she would know things like that.

I could go on, but frankly, it has all been done before. I will not waste my tie with more. But the fact remains, the papers that were filed on that day are a work of fiction. Court papers require facts. Is it any wonder that these cases have been dismissed by every court they were presented to? Not at all.

You are misinterpreting my words (as usual). Here is a simple answer for your BS scenarios.

The NBC requirement (born in USA of citizen parents) is translated into verification of three facts:

1. Was child born in the USA?
2. Was mother a US citizen at the time of child's birth?
3. Was father a US citizen at the time of child's birth?

Birth certificate lists place of birth and names of parents.

If any of the required information is missing, the child is not an NBC.
Why? The intention of the NBC phrase is to limit foreigners from obtaining the command of US military. Therefore, in the interest of national security, information needed to determine candidate's NBC status must be available and transparent.

Even though you say the “index data” is free to the public and it this magic bullet, you have no basis on which to make the claim that the State of Hawaii has released a false document. It is purely a fantasy of your own making that it MIGHT be false because of some shit you read on the internet. I do not, most Americans do not and the government does not give one good rats ass of a flying fuck what you think needs verification. According to your standard of proof, our entire society would grind to a screeching halt as we would be required to verify every last motherfucking scrap of information that we did not like regardless of whether we had even a whisper of proof.

Its still kinda’ foggy about when the Obama decided to become a U.S. citizen but it appears he somehow got his citizenship magically when he swore in as a U.S. Senator. Apparently he never denounced any of his citizenships i.e. Brit, Kenyan, Indonesian or U.S.

The Constitution is not the only law of the USA.

The only laws in effect in the USA are the Organic laws of the United States?:

The organic laws of the United States of America are included in the U.S. Code.
These documents include:
* the United States Declaration of Independence,
* the Articles of Confederation,
* the Northwest Ordinance, and
* the U.S. Constitution.

“* the United States Declaration of Independence,

Do the three of these documents spell out the 3 eligibility requirements for President? I must have missed that. What's hilarious is that these three predated the U.S. Constitution and the executive branched headed by that very same President. Odd that they would spell out the eligibility requirements for an office that did not exist.

Early Congress tried to expand the definition of NBC to foreign born children of US citizens. They repealed that law after only five years and declared such children as US citizens.

I am not the one who set the rules. I am just telling you that NBC is not the same as “citizen at birth”.

Those “soldiers” were all trying to keep from being deployed overseas to a war zone. Every one of them didn't want to go to Iraq or Afghanistan. Captain Rhodes said she didn't mind serving, she just didn't want to go to Iraq. Major Cook didn't want to go to Afghanistan.

The ones who are reserves or not on active duty don't have an iron in this fire because the chance of them being recalled to active duty is very slim. And if they were recalled because of a major event and they had to stop and worry about who was in charge they are not what this country needs. We need citizens and soldiers who would answer the call and ask questions later.

I respect those in our military who serve, as many of my family have. I lose respect for those who try to get out of serving where they might be put in harms way. They should have thought of that before they signed up. What did they think the military was?

Robert C. Laity is his real name; he lives in Tonawanda, New York, and is a retired Postal Service employee.

Needless to say, they are finding a less than warm welcome in the courts. Judges understand that grand juries can only be convened with the authorization of a court or prosecutor, and that the purpose of the grand jury is to protect against baseless prosecution, not to promote baseless prosecution.

Their movement is based on a completely flawed understanding of the nature and purpose of grand juries, and they have created their “authorization” out of one word in the Fifth Amendment: “presentment.”

The logical process is to list the biological parents on the BC and go through the adoption. The NY law does not make any sense. It only serves as a tool for advancing the legalization of homosexual marriage.
It ignores the natural order of things.

It is obvious that different states will have different rules – therefore the SCOTUS will have to decide on this one.

I find it interesting that NY would threat homosexual women differently from men when it comes to issuing a BC for a child. What prevented them from being consistent?

Another strange thing is the fact that NY state does not recognize the homosexual marriage.

I wonder if states, which recognized homosexual marriage, follow the same rules as NY when issuing BCs.

Why do you need “SCOTUS” to answer the question?

Change the hypothetical: Husband and wife, both U.S. citizens. Husband had vasectomy. They decide they want children. Wife becomes pregnant through artificial insemination, bears child in U.S. Husband and wife named on birth certificate.

My understanding of your past responses is that if the parents listed on the birth certificate are U.S. citizens, the child is “eligible” regardless of who the sperm came from.

Why would it be any different for a legally married lesbian couple?

Try giving a reasoned answer based on law and the positions you have already taken, rather than one based on your obvious personal biases against same sex couples.

The marriage is not relevant at all when it comes to the NBC issue. Parents are.

The rules in New York are flawed. Listing a person’s name as a parent should not depend on marital status.

In addition, it is obvious that two women cannot have a child. “Father” figure in that relationship has to adopt the child.

In case of heterosexual couple, the presumption is that whoever is listed on the original BC is the father in the eyes of the law, unless there is a successfull legal paternity dispute (including court ordered DNA test).

You have said repeatedly that the citizenship of the parents at the time of birth is what matters, and we determine who the “parents” are by looking to the birth certificate.

Yes or no?

In my hypothetical, the man has had a vasectomy. Or let’s say he lost his testicles to cancer. He cannot father a child.

If he and the woman, married or not, are listed as parents on the birth certificate, and the child is born in the U.S., the child is eligible.

Yes or no?

You see a Constitutional difference between the child born to that couple by artificial insemination and the child born to a lesbian couple by artificial insemination?

Yes or no.

If you do, how? It is as obvious that a man without testicles cannot father a child “naturally” as it is that a woman cannot “father” a child “naturally.”

And please explain how any of this has anything to do with “dual allegiance” or “undivided loyalty” as opposed to your personal views about homosexuality.

Thanksgiving is almost here, and I have to say how thankful I am to live in a country in which we have the freedom to openly debate the qualifications of Presidential candidates, and to vote for the candidate we think will best serve our county.

I'm thankful for the over 69 million Americans who voted for Barack Obama.

I'm thankful for judges who refuse to meddle in our selection of our leaders, leaving to the voters the decision regarding who will best defend us, our nation, and our Constitution.

I'm thankful for freedom of speech, which gives intelligent people the ability to voice their opinions and gives crazy people more than enough rope to hang themselves.

And on that last note, I have to share with you the current wisdom of NC, who provides me with so much entertainment.

As those of you who have been following the debate know, NC takes the position that a “natural born citizen” is a person born in the U.S. to parents who at the time of birth are U.S. citizens. I won't rehash how NC arrived at this, other than to say NC views this as promoting Presidential candidates who are “exclusively loyal” to the U.S., or as necessary to avoid “dual allegiance.” (NC has phrased it both ways).

It seems fairly clear that if a man and woman, both U.S. citizens, have a child in the U.S., NC considers the child eligible to be President. This is true even if the man (due, for example, to a vasectomy or other infertility) is not the biological father, and the woman becomes pregnant through artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization, as long as the man and the woman are listed as the parents on the birth certificate.

The current question to NC is this: Does the same rule apply if two women have a child (one of the women becoming pregnant by artificial insemination), and the two women are listed on the birth certificate as the parents (as now can occur in a number of jurisdictions)?

NC has said, “No”: “It is obvious that two women cannot have a child. 'Father' figure in that relationship has to adopt the child.” (Never mind that the man in my hypothetical is no more capable of being a “natural” father than is woman).

With respect to a New York City policy specifically allowing married lesbian couples to both be listed as the “parents” on the birth certificate, NC had this to say: “NY law does not make any sense. It only serves as a tool for advancing the legalization of homosexual marriage. It ignores the natural order of things.”

Again, Happy Thanksgiving. And rest assured that as you celebrate the holiday, NC will be busy incorporating into the very foundation of our United States Constitution all of NC's personal opinions and prejudices.

NOT_AXJ, I agree with what you say that, in order to accept or become a citizen, we should be required upon reaching age of majority to declare our allegiance to our nation of choice, but under English Common law and USA laws a person is born to the allegiance (jurisdiction) of the country and blood, to which they are born.

I agree with you that a minor is incapable of granting consent or agreeing to a contract, making it absurd to assume a baby accepts allegiance at birth, but current laws being how they are, we are stuck with the consequences, of anchor babies and a dual national president.

Incredulous, Obama is a dual national from cradle-to-grave. He was, is and always will be dual national. By acts of fraud and deception he was put forth in an election, and by propaganda and media sensationalism he won. Your support of the fraud, and your belief in the propaganda, and your acceptance of the deception, is what concerns those of us who are aware it has occurred and is continuing. You see, I am worried about my nation, but I have to laugh at your stupidity, because only as the train goes off the bridge, and into the abyss, will you realize your failure to take control of the engine.

“Obama is a dual national from cradle-to-grave. He was, is and always will be dual national.”
This is YOUR belief and and isn't supported by any legitimate reading of any law of these United States.
“By acts of fraud and deception he was put forth in an election, and by propaganda and media sensationalism he won. “
All elections are orchestrations of fraud and deception, the electorate is always given the liberty to choose which set of planks is least offensive.
“Your support of the fraud, and your belief in the propaganda, and your acceptance of the deception, is what concerns those of us who are aware it has occurred and is continuing.”
I reject your accusation as I have yet to see ANY proof of the fraud you believe has been committed.
“You see, I am worried about my nation, but I have to laugh at your stupidity, “
Regardless, this nation will still be standing after Obama has left office 3 or 7 years from now. You may laugh at what you believe is my stupidity and perhaps you think I'd should be cowed or offended, but I'm not. To be laughed at by someone as aggressively ignorant of the law is not much concern for me as while you face me to laugh, millions turn to laugh at you.

I’m scratching my head reading my response trying to find the point where I was disconnecting current laws from the legal origins of our system of jurisprudence.

You have yet to answer the question: “Do the three of these documents spell out the 3 eligibility requirements for President?”

Also, laws as written out as statutes and argued before judges and juries are not “organic”, this may be your opinion and I’m sure it feeds into your need to feel like you’re on the side of some extra-human justice, but I don’t buy it. The documents you site are the “foundation” of our legal system, you are using the word “organic” improperly.

The definition of “natural born” in the 1700s did not include gay marriage, artificial insemination or invitro-fertilization. But, the phrase “child born of citizens” did assume a child was born to a man and woman.

The need for judges to meddle in our selection of our leaders, is necessitated by the discovery the party chair committed election frauds by submitting declarations saying a candidate's name should be on a ballot, when in fact she conveniently omitted stating such statements as he was constitutionally qualified, thus misleading the voters into assuming he was.

It is apparent by the statements of Obots, that they are not the best qualified to defend us, our nation, and our Constitution.

Unfortunately the fallacy of their assumptions will be apparent the moment following their realization the doors just closed behind them wasn't for the showers, but for the gas chamber.

Happy Thanksgiving.

You omitted the fact that I asked you about the flaw in NY policy that allows “married” lesbians to be listed on the BC as parents. The parental marital status has nothing to do with NBC status of a child.

A heterosexual couple that is not married will be listed on child's BC. This is not the case for homosexual couples. The proper policy for lesbian couples is to list the biological mother as mother and go through the adoption procedure for the other partner.

In case of an infertile male in a heterosexual releationship, the law does not know whether man had a vasectomy or is infertile. Unless you are in favor of DNA testing prior to the inclusion of father's name on the BC, the assumption is that the father 's name is listed on the BC. In vast majority of child births this is the case (name of both biological parents are listed on the BC).

This is not the case for any baby born in a homosexual relationship.

Sorry Bord, I can't wait. Obama is he was born a Brit and became a Kenyan before he became an Indonesian. He may have held dual-citizenship for awhile but he has never ever been a natural-born U.S. citizen and he was never naturalized. Hence he is holding office illegally and is probably an illegal-alien. He is also reported to be a bisexual Moslem who has used many different Social Security Numbers. Then there's the whole person-of-interest in a couple suspicious deaths. This guy makes Bill&Hellary look like saints. This issue is probably going to continue to be swept under the carpet by congress, judges, mainstream media, etc. as our nation will be turned upside-down if the truth about Obama was released. At a minimum there would be race-riots so everybody who has the power to do something about it won't. Too bad the man doesn't own up to his big lie.

The “certification of live birth” posted online and widely touted as “Obama's birth certificate” does not in any way prove he was born in Hawaii, since the same “short-form” document is easily obtainable for children not born in Hawaii. The true “long-form” birth certificate – which includes information such as the name of the birth hospital and attending physician – is the only document that can prove Obama was born in Hawaii, but to date he has not permitted its release for public or press scrutiny.
Oddly, though congressional hearings were held to determine whether Sen. John McCain was constitutionally eligible to be president as a “natural born citizen,” no controlling legal authority ever sought to verify Obama's claim to a Hawaiian birth. Under law at the time of the Obama's birth his mother being married to an alien was neither old enough or held residency long enough to confer natural-born status to her son.

If they were not born in Hawaii, it states where they were born. President Obama's says he was born in Honolulu. If he were born somewhere else it would not say that. It doesn't matter how old his mother was at the time of his birth. He was born in the U.S., so her age has no effect. He is a natural born citizen of the United States of America because he was born in the United States of America. He has lived the majority of his life in the United States- and all of his adult life. It doesn't matter that he lived out of the country from 6 years to 10 years because no parent or step parent can effect the citizenship of a child born in the United States. He is a legitimate president because a majority of us elected him and he garnered a huge majority of the electoral college votes. He will only leave office when his terms are up. You can not be happy about it but that's the way the cookie crumbles. Deal with it.

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.”
British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.

BRIEFS DUE BY JANUARY 4TH, 2010

The Federal 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, has set the due date for the filing of briefs of the appellants in the case: January 4th, 2010.
Commander Charles F. Kerchner, Jr., USNR Retired, issued a public statement regarding the announcement:
We look forward to moving ahead with this very important constitutional case along the legal pathway to the ultimate decision maker for this historic and precedence setting lawsuit, the U.S. Supreme Court. They will determine the answer to the pressing legal question of what is a “natural born Citizen” of the USA per Article II constitutional standards and did Obama and the U.S. Congress violate the Constitution and statutory laws and my constitutional rights during the 2008 election cycle. And, the Supreme Court will also be asked to refer their legal definition to Congress to determine if Obama meets that legal ruled definition. I say Obama does not meet the founders and framers intent for the Article II eligibility clause. I say Obama is a deceiver and a usurper.

Obama's grandmother NEVER said she was present. McRae, the one that interviewed her was trying to put words into her mouth. The original recording un-edited recording is available numerous places online and it shows that McRae was trying to get his grandmother to say he was born in Kenya but couldn't ever accomplish it. She kept saying he was born in Hawaii.

The three newspapers are no proof. Kenyans saying he was born in Kenya is no proof. It only shows their pride in Obama's Kenyan roots.

Here in less than 5 minutes of 'research'. Please note that Clinton was acquitted by the Senate:

Bill Clinton, President of the United States, was impeached by the House of Representatives on December 19, 1998, and acquitted by the Senate on February 12, 1999. The charges, perjury, obstruction of justice, and abuse of power, arose from the Monica Lewinsky scandal and the Paula Jones lawsuit. The trial proceedings were largely partisan, with no Democratic Senators voting for conviction and only five Democratic Representatives voting to impeach. In all, 55 senators voted not guilty, and 45 voted guilty on the perjury charge. The Senate also acquitted on the charge of obstruction, with 50 votes cast as not guilty, and 50 votes as guilty.[1] It was only the second impeachment of a President in American history, following the impeachment of Andrew Johnson in 1868.

All I have is a certificate of birth issued by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1979, after my original birth certificate could not be located. It's quite worthless – I mean, I've only used to obtain a driver's license, passport, and several jobs. Clearly I need to shred it, move back to Pittsburgh, and camp outside of the City-County Building until I get the REAL birth certificate, which I can then use to obtain a driver's license, passport, and jobs….

Who cares what he says? It's highly unlikely that the SCOTUS will hear this case on appeal. However, if they do, and I hope they do, I'm sure the government's attorneys will prevail and the Supreme Court will decide that a natural born citizen is exactly what prior SCOTUS decisions have been. As long as the child is born on US soil, he or she is a natural born citizen regardless of the parents' citizenship status.

You’ll have to ask the Arkansas Bar Association about that one…but it had absolutely nothing to do with the impeachment proceedings. Different jurisdictions, different alleged offenses, different outcomes.

As for the Secretary of State, she seems to be concentrating on her job instead of coming up with non-issues to cover the fact that she ran a poor campaign for President. Maybe you should support her today instead of crying over milk that was spilt eighteen months ago?

I once had a McDonald's franchise owner contact me about cleaning the computer equipment as his stores periodically as was recommended to him by Mickey D's corporate. I went in at midnight to one of the stores he didn't leave open every night. It was disgusting and I've never been able to eat at McDonald's since. The computers connected to the cash registers were clogged with grease. Just walking on the floors behind the counter was sickening. It felt like I was walking on ice it was so slippery. I told him to find someone else to clean them.

If Obamacorn manages a McDonald's, it explains just exactly what is wrong. Her head is full of grease.

This is SO funny. Now that Clinton is out of office and served two terms, it’s alright for him to have been impeached for having an affair. Just one of the reasons I moved away from the Republican party. They so much hated Clinton that they had to impeach him for getting a BJ and the Paula Jones claims when he was governer.

This is really what’s happening now, only not even close to the degree it happened with Clinton. A small portion of the extreme right wing in thinking – not even real Republicans or Democrats but more like little Nazis – have such distain for Obama that they’re just making sh*t up and forging all sorts of documents in their attempts to prove that he isn’t President.

Now, I'm sure if you could convince ALL of he voters that voted for Obama that he isn't eligible or what ever it is you're trying to prove today, then you might be able to get the House of Reps to bring articles of impeachment and then maybe the Senate will convict him and he'll be removed.

No, not yet, and to date no case has been dismissed on the merits, but rather over standing or subject matter jurisdiction. But, undaunted, our good attorneys are learning and adapting, and will keep pressing for a case.

In case you weren't aware, the US Supreme Court has already spoken on the definition of “natural-born citizen”.

The best place to start is Miller v. Albright, 523 U.S. 420 (1998).

While the case facts aren't exactly the same, the court does a great job explaining the history of citizenship by birth and how it is applied today. As a matter of fact, the second sentence of the opinion states, “Within the former category, the Fourteenth Amendment of the Constitution guarantees that every person 'born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, becomes at once a citizen of the United States, and needs no naturalization.'”

As long as Obama was born in the US, his parentage doesn't matter. But the opinion doesn't end there, it goes on to state that IF a person was born abroad, as long as his mother was a US citizen, the child is a citizen of the US.

If you are a birther PLEASE read the opinion. Educate yourselves. It can't hurt, right?

Thanks for posting this case shadowette. I read it in full and based on the opinion, it is certain to be used by the defense if any of these misguided attorneys were actually to be heard in regard to the Obama eligibility issue. You're right. Obama could have been born in Kenya and he is still considered to be a citizen. Their bases for determining citizenship comes from the US v Wong Kim Ark. What's even better about their opinion is that a child born on foreign soil to a US father OR US mother is considered a citizen and requires no naturalization. Just repeating what you've already written above.

I think the debate is over. Obama is no doubt the President of the US and will go down in history as the greatest President this nation has ever had.

shadowette,

Miller v. Albright, 523 U.S. 420 (1998) referenced at http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/96-1060.Z… does not mention or decide the definition of “natural-born citizen”. Neither character string “natural-born” or “natural born” occur in the decision. SCOTUS ruled “dismissal” of Miller v. Albright, 523 U.S. 420 (1998), therefore no decision on NBC happened.

If we apply 8 U.S.C. § 1409 to Barack Hussein Obama II, and agree he was born in Kenya, and out of wedlock, then he was not a citizen by birth, but a national, and he needed to go through naturalization to gain citizenship, which he did not, therefore he is an illegal alien, but at any rate he was not NBC, and is ineligible for POTUS. If you read Miller v. Albright, 523 U.S. 420 (1998), you can see:
… “Petitioner, having been born outside United States territory, can only become a citizen by naturalization under congressional authority. See, e.g., United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649, 702—703. If there is no congressional enactment granting her citizenship, she remains an alien. By its plain language, 8 U.S.C. § 1409 sets forth a precondition to the acquisition of citizenship that petitioner admittedly has not met.” …

8 U.S.C. § 1409 doesn't apply to Barack Hussein Obama II, since his father was not a US national (See 8 U.S.C. § 1409(a)(2)), therefore your mention of Miller v. Albright, 523 U.S. 420 (1998) is moot.

If we apply 8 U.S.C. § 1401, to Barack Hussein Obama II, and we agree his place of birth was in Kenya, then he is 100% British at birth, since on his birth date his mother was not yet 19 years old. Barack Hussein Obama II, would at best need to become a citizen by naturalization, but at any rate he was not NBC, and is ineligible for POTUS.

If we apply 8 U.S.C. § 1401, to Barack Hussein Obama II, and we agree his place of birth was Hawaii, a US state, we must consider the “jurisdictions” of his birth. Jurisdiction can be “subject matter, “personal (blood)” or “territorial (soil)”.

He was born in the USA, out of wedlock, to mixed-national parents, and is subject to the joint personal and territorial jurisdictions of both. He was born a dual-national, and is not NBC.


NOT_AXJ
Comment posted November 29, 2009 @ 5:56 pm

The case was an equal protection case. USC 1409 says a child born to a US mother is a US citizen and the argument was that Miller's Constitutional rights were violated because her father was a US citizen and because of that, his citizenship should pass to her. The conclusion was that her rights were not violated because “The statutory requirement that a child born out of wedlock to a citizen father obtain formal proof of paternity by age 18, either through legitimization, written acknowledgment by the father under oath, or adjudication by a competent court, is well tailored to address the difficulties of establishing a child's citizenship based only on the relation to the father.”

They did not decide what natural born was nor was it their intent. If you actually read the entire opinion, not just that which was on Cornell's website, you would see that they addressed the difference between a citizen and a naturalized citizen. It was their determination that there are two types of citizens. Those born in the US and those that are naturalized after immigrating.

Obama was born in the US and he is a citizen, not a naturalized citizen, and is qualified to hold the office of POTUS.

None of your arguments hold water.

I have posted a comment on the Orly Taitz web site that is similar to the following, and twice the moderator there (Orly herself? I don't know) has seen fit to reject my comment. It must be too painful for her to read the truth about her terrible, unprofessional writing. I wrote a comment first in response to her original Motion for Reconsideration of the Order to Dismiss filed in the Central District of California Alan Keyes v. Barack Obama case. Yesterday, I posted a comment on the Orly Taitz web site as a critique of both the original and the Amended Motion for Reconsideration filed by Orly Taitz in California. The relevance of my comments posted on this particular blog is that the same lack of appropriate legal professionalism and rude, insulting arrogance exhibited by attorney Orly Taitz toward the Court appears to obtain in both the California and the Georgia cases.

I am an attorney in active practice, although not in California or Georgia, and I also am an adjunct faculty member who teaches English at a local university, although I do not teach a class every quarter.

It is absolutely beyond my understanding that an attorney would file with the Court a pleading that contains contractions, to-wit: “should've”, which is one of the most noteworthy and glaring examples of slang in Orly Taitz's pleadings. Contractions have no legitimate place in professional legal writing. In addition, an attorney should know that the possessive “its” does not contain an apostrophe, as the meaning of “it's” or “it is” is entirely different. I was appalled to see that glaring error in the revised motion.

The above are the only two comments that I intend to enter regarding the Amended Motion, because I have no intention of reading the revised form of the motion all over for a second time. I read the first motion, and that was enough time spent by me. Because the same errors seem to appear in Orly Taitz's Amended Motion, I conclude that she did not care to read, take to heart, or implement any of the grammatical/stylistic changes that I had suggested prior to her drafting of the Amended Motion for Reconsideration filed in California.

I do recall that two of my other comments relating to the original motion were the inappropriateness of the comment about how many medical exams the attorney has taken. It is unusual and bizarre, to say the least, for anyone to think that the Court cares a whit about that, or that medical exams have any relevance to the issues before the Court. In addition, there were several examples of other slang (“as a matter of fact”), in addition to hyperbole (“clearly”, “obviously”, “everyone knows”) in the original motion that had no place in competent, professional legal writing. I wonder why no one proofread/edited the motion before it was filed with the Court, because both the original Motion for Reconsideration and the Amended Motion filed by Orly Taitz in California appear to have been written by an incompetent first-year law student who has not completed the two-semester Legal Research and Writing course.

In addition, language in the original motion insulted the Court in two ways. First, the attorney addressed the Court rudely in the second person, which is simply too direct and too familiar, and thus inappropriate when addressing the Court. It is cheeky, and therefore rude. In addition, Orly Taitz insulted the Court by assuming that judges do very little work, and that they all have their law clerks write their trial opinions and rulings on motions. I was employed for nearly two years right out of law school for a State District Court Judge, and my Judge made it a point to tell me at our interview that he writes his own opinions. I am of the opinion that all judges work hard and often stay evenings and come in on weekends to complete the mountains of legal work with which they are saddled. Orly Taitz clearly does not share my respect and high opinion of the judiciary. One does not need a law degree to understand that it is simply not smart to insult a judge from whom one hopes to receive a positive ruling. If Orly Taitz is as intelligent as she claims, then it is surprising that she does not understand this point. For all of the above reasons, I would be very surprised, not to say shocked, if the Amended Motion for Reconsideration in California is successful.

I also think that Orly Taitz will have difficulty finding any attorney to assist her in drafting pleadings, because it would embarrass most of us to have our name associated with such poor legal writing and such rude insults to the Court.

I do believe that Obama is ineligible to be U.S. President under the Constitution, but if these two forms of the Motion for Reconsideration of the Order to Dismiss in California are any indication of the sort of pleading that these several Courts, including the Goergia Court, have been reading, it is amazing that even the California case survived as long as it did.

Jim, that’s just a goofy claim you’ve made. No one is scared of a black man, and race is not the issue here. The fact that you have to try to MAKE it the issue indicates that you have no rational arguments. Hawaii does NOT say that Obama was born there, and in fact, his own family cannot figure out which story they want to run with regarding the name of the hospital in Hawaii. There are two, and they claim sometimes one, sometimes the other. They can’t come to a consensus on the hospital, because Obama was not born in Hawaii. In fact, I ran across a photo of Stanley Ann in a bikini on the beach in Waikiki in Summer, 1961. The 17-year-old girl does NOT look like she was going to have a baby at any time in the next nine months, let alone in August, 1961. Where DID this Obama character come from? It’s a mystery, and he will provide NO documents to help solve the mystery. Why, I wonder.

Orly doesn't post anything that is critical directly into her 'blog' if you can actually call that mess of a webpage a blog. There have been several times that I have commented and none of my comments have been posted. But I'm fairly sure they're read.

Recently I posted a comment that was 'tongue in cheek' that she did post to her blog along with a personal message below it. It is apparent that she doesn't read or understand English that well.

As far as what you wrote in reference to clerking for a judge, that is a part of Orly's law career that she missed. There's no absolute way to know exactly what kind of attorney is produced from a distance learning school that is not accredited with the American Bar Association.

You've made some great points. I am not sure how a person could acquire an

without the benefit of large lecture hall discussions and smaller group
discussions with classmates. Her writing is so glaringly unprofessional,
however, that I am surprised that she does not have an American attorney
proofread her pleadings for content as well as format and style.

Recently I have begun to experience the suspicious feeling that she is
enjoying the notoriety much more than the seriousness and importance of the
mission, so although I support her cause, I can no longer support her as
spokesperson. The cause had started to earn some respect even in liberal
corners, but I am concerned that her recent behavior, language, and Court

It would only be an important issue if people actually believed it. Personally, I do not believe it. It seems pretty clear that there is not a majority of people that believe Obama is not eligible. Most, if not all, don't want him to be president because they don't like him or his policies. Some objections are clearly racist.

All you would have to do is read the comments posted on Orly's Facebook page to know that some are racist and anti-semitic. When it has been pointed out to those 'friends' of Orly that are anti-semitic that Orly is Jewish, those friends have dropped off of her friends list.

I suppose it is inevitable that the racists mights think that they have
found a “home” in this argument, but I am not one of them. I oppose illegal
immigration and want the borders closed up and the American employers
heavily and punitively fined, but that also is not a racist issue. It is a
matter of desiring to have our laws adhered to.

I was president of Teen Dems in my town of 100,000 when I was a senior in
high school. Bobby Kennedy's primary campaign was my first campaign when I
was barely out of junior high, and I dated black guys in college. I do not
see Obama's race as an issue, except insofar as it will be devastating to
black children and teens when he is removed from office for the issues
discussed here, as he is their role model.

I think the absence of the long-form birth certificate is only indicative of
the concealment of so many other docs, including college transcripts and
medical and passport records and social security number application. I
believe that he is NOT a natural-born citizen, and therefore ineligible, due
to the fact that one of his parents was not a U.S. citizen.

Obama also knows that that fact makes him ineligible. When he was debating
Hillary Clinton, he acted like a smart-ass punk to the former first lady by
claiming that he had considerable world travel experience. THAT is how he
disclosed that he had traveled to Pakistan when he was 21….. and it would
not have been on an American passport, either. THAT was the reason that we
saw the look on his face indicating that he wished he could pull those words
back. Had he not been a disrespectful punk to Hillary, we never would have
heard about his Pakistan trip.

There is another troubling incident that indicates that Obama well knows
that he is not eligible to be U.S. President. When he was debating during
his run for the Senate, an opponent tossed at him the statement that he was
not eligible to be U.S. President. Obama's smart-ass response then was,
“But I'm running for the Senate, not the White House!!” Well, thereafter he
did run for the White House, and he should not have been allowed to, but who
will have the temerity to stop him? He is committing criminal fraud and

Orly had Charles Lincoln, the disbarred attorney, writing the majority of her legal pleadings up until one of Orly's witnesses wrote a deposition to Judge Carter that Orly had asked him to lie and included in that deposition lorid details of an affair Orly and Charles were having. Maybe that's why the case went as far as it did in Carter's court.

There is no doubt in my mind that Orly likes the notoriety. All you need to do is watch some of the videos of her on YouTube to see that she loves the attention she receives from the birther crowd.

There's a group of people that are against Obama and don't believe he was qualified to hold the office of POTUS that are trying to get the birther movement to move away from Orly because they believe Orly is hurting the case. You might need to look for them on Facebook and go from there.

As far as me, I believe Obama is qualified and was properly vetted.

I think that rather than to do a proper job of vetting, Nancy Pelosi played
fast and loose with the facts. Interestingly, Pelosi also refuses to
disclose just which docs she saw that “convinced” her that Obama was
eligible to run in the general election. I think that almost everyone in
the country, including probably many Republicans, was so eager to get Bush
and the Republicans OUT of the White House, that they jumped at the chance
to accept this eminently electable candidate, Barack Obama. It is a shame
that Hillary did not bring up the eligibility issue herself in the spring or
early summer of 2008, because it was largely Hillary votes that Obama was
able to grab in order to win the nomination in Denver a year ago.

The problem presented, then, is how do you remove him from office? The Constitution was designed to have the three branches of law. The Judiciary clearly does not have the power to remove him. The only way is to bring clear and compelling evidence to your representative and hope that articles of impeachment will come out of The House and the case will be tried in the Senate with Chief Justice Roberts preciding over the trial. That is the only proper way to remove him so that there is no disruption in our government. There is nothing in the Constitution that allows for undoing an election so that a special election can be held to elect a new president and vice-president. If Obama is proven in-elligible, then Biden becomes President and if Biden were to be removed, then it is the Speaker of the House. There is no doubt that Biden or Pelosi would be qualified based on citizenship.

By the way, there were no travel restrictions to Pakistan in 1981.

OK, so what law is he not adhering to?
1) It always sets off a red flag whenever someone has to say they dated, married, have friends who are black. It's an anonymous message board, no one give a sh*t about something like that which can't be verified. So, I have to assume that you say that as a false truth so we won't hold you to the bigotry argument.
2) Long-form is BS and you know it. The legal BC is the one Hawaii sent to him. But, most important, is Hawaii says he was born there. No other country's official claim he was born there, just americans who want him out.
3) He went to Pakistan on an American passport…as many americans did at that time. Check with the state department, there was NO travel restriction.
4) Quite frankly, if you had listened to the BS Keyes was putting out there during the race, you'd have been appalled. I know, I voted for Obama for the senate. So, for you to take that one statement makes me wonder how much of the rest of the debates you heard. Keyes was not here to run for office, he was here to trash our state.
5) You have to prove fraud…and you can't.

As has been pointed out again and again, you are wrong. Your last paragraph alone has the following errors:

1. There is no requirement in any legal code for a candidate for office to be born in wedlock.

2. Obama is not subject to the laws of any “personal and territorial jurisdiction” (whatever the hell that means) of any country except the United States.

3. Being born with dual citizenship does not disqualify one from being a natural born citizen as long as one is born in the United States.

FAIL.

My dear woman, if you are indeed an attorney then hie ye to the old law library and do some digging.

You state President Obama could not have traveled to Pakistan in 1981 because he couldn't have done it on an American passport. That is a false assertion that anyone with a few skills can quickly check. According to our own State Department, the claim that Americans couldn't travel to Pakistan in 1981 is nothing more than a false rumor that has been floating around on the Internet. Americans could and did travel to that country on their own passports.

Even if he made the comment you have attributed to him during a debate for his senatorial campaign, was that not the truth? Why debate his eligibility to be president if he is trying to focus on a senate race?

His Certificate of Live Birth, which is what Hawaii gives out these days, clearly states he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. If he were born elsewhere, it would have said where he was born, not made up a birth place. His half sister could easily be wrong as to the hospital, as she is younger than him and did not live with him the majority of her life. Remember, he lived in Hawaii with his grandparents while she was in Indonesia.

The other relatives he has from Kenya, whether they be half siblings or other types of relatives, had limited contact with President Obama, with that brief contact being after he reached adulthood. His father has been dead for a long time and he was the connector to President Obama’s Kenyan relatives. Is it any wonder they may not have all the information correct or have it at all? There are cultural and language barriers to understanding all the aspects of his life for them. There are language barriers for those seeking to obtain information from these Kenyan folks, as demonstrated by the false claims made from the one Obama hater that is trying to claim his grandmother said he was born there. When the entire interview was listened to, it was clear she said he was born in Hawaii.

You claim that because he only has one US citizen parent, he is not eligible to be president. Yet the facts of his birth and parentage are well known. A large majority of people, including the Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court, who participated in the inauguration of this president, had ample opportunity to protest President Obama candidacy, nomination and subsequent election long before now if they truly believed he was ineligible. Since the US Supreme Court is the final arbiter of things constitutional, don't you think the Chief Justice would have found it his duty to uphold the Constitution of the United States of America if he didn't believe Barack H. Obama II to be a natural born citizen of these United States? Do you believe the Chief Justice would have participated by administering the oath of office if he were concerned about the legitimacy of the President Elect? Wouldn't that have violated the Chief Justice's own oath of office? In addition to the fact that some of the Supreme Court cases seem to be pretty clear that they have settled the natural born part. However, since you are the attorney, you have ready access to those decisions. I am not going to quote them to you. You can do that on your own.

When I read your first post I was in complete agreement with you in regard to the language of the legal documents, the accusations made by Oily and the rest concerning the legal battle. It wasn't until we got to the end that I realized you are one of them. Your subsequent posts have convinced me you are really no different. You are taking false claims posted by other people and running with them as if they are truth. These have been debunked long before you came along here. I have yet to see the proof of the video clip that shows the president saying what you are quoting him as saying during the debate with Hillary or the senate debate. I am not one to attribute someone interpreting a facial expression as truth. Just like I am always suspicious of law enforcement saying someone didn't behave in a manner they think they should have behaved and therefore they must be the guilty one, I am suspicious of people attributing a feeling or thought to another just because of the expression they had on their face. As you well know, that would not be accepted as proof in court and I cannot accept it as proof here. Maybe he had gas. I mean really!

I also find your attributing his reply to be “smart assed” telling. Did he not make a true statement at that time? And what is smart assed about truth? You call him a disrespectful punk to Hillary, again exposing your true feelings. It wouldn't have mattered what he said, you were determined to find fault with him. I supported Hillary and I found many things to disrespectful to her but that wasn't one of them.

The fact is, everything you have mentioned in these posts against Obama here are all things that have been gone through and debunked where appropriate. The rest boils done to the fact that you don't want the man as president. You don't have to want it or like it. But you need to accept truth. The man is the president, is eligible to be the president and will stay the president. I have heard no credible liberals or even most republicans saying that they believe he is not eligible. The republicans have even talked about running Bobby Jindal for president. He wasn't even conceived here, but was born here to two (legal) immigrants (not citizens at time of birth). I guess they think the born here is sufficient?????

You mentioned a picture purported to be President Obama’s mother in a bikini at 17 on a beach so she couldn't have been pregnant(?). How do you know the picture is of her and that it was taken then? People can lie. Is she holding a newspaper with the date? How do you know it is her? How do you know when it was taken? When I was pregnant at seventeen and gave birth at eighteen, thanks to my young flesh, you couldn't even tell I was pregnant until the last couple months and I wore my pre-pregnant clothes home from the hospital. And gave birth to a healthy 7 1/2 lb boy. I could have easily worn a bikini within a couple of weeks of giving birth without anyone knowing that I had just had a child. Hawaii has some really long summers. How do you know when a picture was taken? Just because someone says so? The newspapers in Hawaii announced a birth to Obama’s parents in August 1961. His birth date. One woman found the clipping in her daughters baby book because her daughter's birth was announced at the same time.

As I stated, I agree with you about the legal filings by Orly Taitz. She is truly a disgrace to the legal system. She reveals her lack of proper law education. If I, as a layman, can see that, how can there be any doubt as to her ineffectiveness? I have spent many hours following her trail online. I won't do it again because of the havoc it reeked on my computer. She has viruses that infect if you dare to go there. I have watched video's of her where she is encouraging sedition- telling military members and citizens to take up arms against our official government, to in effect hold a military coup. She travels to Israel and other places and has a radio show talking crap about our government and how President Obama is going to stop supporting the Israeli's and allow Palestinians to inhabit Jewish land and other nonsense. I believe she could be called a traitor and committing treason for her actions against the best interests of the United States. She who is a immigrant- allowed to come here because she married a citizen I think the woman should be deported or at the very least, charged with sedition.

The people who came here before you with the same debunked claims you have made refuse to believe the truth too, so I have no reason to believe you will be any different. It would be refreshing to have someone at least say OK, he is eligible to be president but I still don't like him. I can accept that. I have a huge problem with the lies, distortions and half truths. Honesty goes a lot farther.

NOT_AXJ,

8 USC 1409 does not say “a child born to a US mother is a US citizen”, since 8 USC 1409 only bestows nationality, not citizenship. Had you read 8 USC 1408, you would know it only bestows nationality, not citizenship, to persons born in outlying possessions of the USA. In such cases US citizenship would have to be acquired through naturalization, therefore the person would not be eligible for POTUS.

8 USC 1401 does bestow both US nationality and citizenship, if a person is born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.

However, Barack Hussein Obama II, was not born to two US citizens, therefore he was born dual nationality. Since Barack Hussein Obama II, is not a natural born citizen, and he was not a citizen of the United States, at the time of the adoption of the US Constitution, he is not eligible to be POTUS.

Yes, you are so right. Removal is in an area of entirely untested waters,
huh? I also have read that impeachment is not considered to be the correct
procedure here, because that is a procedure for a sitting, duly elected
official. I have no clue. It will require a legal mind, several minds
working together probably, far superior to mine to figure this one out.
Interesting, though, yes?

I agree with you….. Biden is the next one in line and then the Speaker.
If she vetted Obama despite the fact that he did not produce adequate
documentation, however, she may have her own removal problems and criminal
charges to face. There is some sort of issue regarding alternative forms of
an otherwise identical document, with Pelosi's signature notarized at the
same time by the same person, that arguably indicates that Pelosi knew there
was an Obama-eligibility issueand was trying to cover her tracks with the
TWO docs….. the notary lives in Denver, and this allegedly was done right
after the Dem Convention, but I have heard nothing about it recently.

Yes, I am in fact a member of the bar in my state. You are correct
regarding the passport issue in 1981, although some argue that travel to
Pakistan at that time on an American passport was not forbidden, but rather
simply discouraged. Others believe that this is a sound basis for believing
that Obama likely used an Indonesian passport, and that the guy was an
Indonesian citizen. Until he stops playing hide-'n'-seek with his records,
who knows?

Yes, it was a Senate race, but his answer was so glib and smug that he
arguably knew that a run for the White House was forbidden. In other words,
his response was not something along the order of, “That's irrelevant, since
I am a natural-born citizen of the U.S.” Of course, he could not have said
that anyway, since Dad was Kenyan and therefore a subject of the British
Crown.

I'm afraid you are incorrect regarding the COLB from Hawaii. That does NOT
prove that he was born in Hawaii (and it still does not solve the problem of
the non-American father). Obama's sister admittedly was born in Indonesia,
and she also has an Hawaiian COLB. That is exactly why demands have been
made for months now to see the Long-Form Birth Certificate, which Hawaiian
law does not allow officials to release unless they get permission from
Obama or his legal counsel. Obviously, Obama is NOT giving permission for
its release, is he? By the way, Obama DID live in Indonesia for several
years….. he attended a private Muslim school that allowed admission only
to citizens, AND his former classmates who are alive today still remember
him only as “Barry Soetoro”.

I disagree with your interpretation of the taped recording of the interview
with Step-grandmother, Sarah Obama. When you listen, it is clear that she
insists he was born in Mombassa, AND that she was present at the birth. The
questioner tries several times to get her to change her story, but she
sticks with “Mombassa”.

I have no answer for you regarding the reason that Obama has not been
stopped. In fact, it is a U.S. Supreme Court opinion from which the
definition comes that he must have TWO AMERICAN citizen parents in order to
be a “natural-born U.S. citizen”. In addition, the law at the time dictated
that Mom at age 17 was too young (as she was not yet 18) to confer
citizenship upon her child. The child, Obama, therefore became a subject of
the British Crown, just like Dad.

No, I am not “one of them”. I am myself. I am doing my best to muddle
through this legal problem and apply my own reasoning regarding this mess.
Please don't toss me in the basket with Orly Taitz. I find her very
strange. Further, it has become increasingly clear to me that she is in
love with the spotlight. I dare say that at this point, she likely has LESS
interest in resolving the legal issues than I do. As long as her name is
bandied about, no matter how ridiculous she makes herself with her badly
written pleadings and her rude, inappropriate, utter lack of decorum
regarding the Court, she seems happy enough. I will not contribute a single
red nickel to her $20-K sanction levied by the Georgia Court. Her bad
Courtroom behavior is HER problem, although her web site is asking for
donations. Yeah, RIGHT.

Obama was a smart, smug punk to Hillary. He was blowing off about how he
was such a world traveler when it is clear how much traveling the former
First Lady had done, and THAT is how he got caught providing info about his
1981 trip to Pakistan…. and THAT is how he got caught by people asking
just HOW he traveled there, since it was NOT on an American passport.

All I can say is that if the Republicans ever run anyone with eligibility
problems, then they will have the same problem that Obama and his minions
now have. Hopefully we will NEVER have to go through all this crap again!

As far as a hidden pregnancy goes until the last month or two, I know
nothing about that, having never had a child. I will just accept your word
that a 17-year-old may not show until the very end.

As far as Orly's computer viruses go, that does scare the hell out of me. I
do occasionally look at her site, and I had no clue that was picking
anything up there. I agree with you that she does sound like a raving
lunatic. There is some new nonsense on her site today suggesting that
everyone should write to representatives in the Senate and the House to
threaten impeachment if they don't do such and such….. whatever it is, I
don't even recall. By raving about virtually EVERYone, Orly Taitz has
caused people to stop listening to ANYthing that she says. She wants some
petition signed on her site, but I have no intention of placing my name on
one of her petitions. Who needs that sort of connection to her, anyway? I
am curious about the husband, however. With a name like Yosef, I guess I
assumed that he also was from the Old Country. Just today, I googled him to
find out what the deal is with him, what is profession is, etc. I could not
find much….. not even that he was American-born.

You write a great post. I hope I responded to everything…. and in order,
so my comment is easier to follow.

fraud (legal definition)

… “A false representation of a matter of fact—whether by words
or by conduct, by false or misleading allegations,
or by concealment of what should have been disclosed—that deceives and is intended to deceive another so that the individual will act upon it to her or his legal injury.

Fraud is commonly understood as dishonesty calculated for advantage. A person who is dishonest may be called a fraud. In the U.S. legal system, fraud is a specific offense with certain features.

Fraud is most common in the buying or selling of property, including real estate, Personal Property, and intangible property, such as stocks, bonds, and copyrights. State and federal statutes criminalize fraud, but not all cases rise to the level of criminality. Prosecutors have discretion in determining which cases to pursue. Victims may also seek redress in civil court.

Fraud must be proved by showing that the defendant's actions involved five separate elements:
(1) a false statement of a material fact,
(2) knowledge on the part of the defendant that the statement is untrue,
(3) intent on the part of the defendant to deceive the alleged victim,
(4) justifiable reliance by the alleged victim on the statement, and
(5) injury to the alleged victim as a result.” …

Barack Hussein Obama II committed fraud:
1. He conceals his history, his long form birth certificate, …
2. He claims eligibility to be POTUS, but a dual national, illegitimate child, not a natural born citizen, …
3. He has constructive knowledge of his fraud and deceit, …
4. He continues his fraud, deceit and conspires with others, …
5. 65 million people believed his lies, fraud, and the conspiracy that made him a candidate for POTUS, usurped the POTUS, ….
6. He has injured the American people, raped the US treasury of Trillions, directed the firing of corporate CEOs, closed car dealerships and bought used cars with tax money, …

RE: Travel to Pakistan. The only restriction was on their end- you were limited to a 30 day stay, the Visa could be obtained at the airport. There were no travel restrictions or advisories during that period. They welcomed American tourists. His mother and step-father may have registered him under the name of his step-father in school. It would certainly make things easier and may have been done for him to feel included. My own children, while legally one name, sometimes wanted to use my new married name. They could do so except on legal documents where their legal name was required. There has been no evidence of adoption, but even if that were the case, a parent cannot do anything to take away a child’s US citizenship. However, President Obama would have had to have an American passport to go to Indonesia in the first place. Why would they have changed that? And there is no proof that he traveled to Pakistan on anything other than an American passport. He had to have an American passport in order for contract employees at the passport office to have snooped in his, Hillary and John McCain's passport files. As to showing his passport records, I do not recall any president ever doing such a thing and I don't think we have a right to ask. He has an American passport, a social security card and he obviously registered for selective service when he was 18. To do all that, you have to show your birth certificate. As too the attending school in Indonesia- I have seen where some claim he couldn't have attended a school there without being a citizen and a Muslim, but I have also read posts of Indonesians that said those claims are not true. The school he attended was not a strictly Muslim school nor would he have had to be Indonesian. He was there from 6 years to 10 years. Not exactly long term.

RE: Senate campaign. The fact he wanted to stay focused on the immediate campaign in no way suggests he -1. knew he was ineligible, or 2. that he was doing anything other than trying to keep the focus on the task at hand. At the time he was running for the Senate he was not considering a run for even higher office. It is your interpretation that makes it “glib and smug”. That indicates your personal feelings/opinion are involved.

RE: Tape of grandma. When it was clear they were talking about Barack H. Obama II, she said he was born in America. Perhaps you were listening to the tape that only had part of the conversation on it.

RE: Hawaiian Certificate of Live Birth. His sisters birth certificate says where she was born. Being eligible to hold an American birth certificate doesn't mean they make up a birth place that isn't true. If you were born elsewhere but are eligible to be an American citizen and obtain an American birth certificate, it will still say you were born in Timbuktu if that is where you were born. That doesn't change. His says Hawaii so that is where he was born.

RE: Debate with Hillary. He was up against a former first lady and a sitting Senator. He had to prove he had experience too. Again, it is your opinion as to his demeanor. Others may feel he was demonstrating his own abilities and strengths- expounding on his own experience. Words like smug are subjective.

RE: His mothers age at his birth. The age thing was for someone giving birth outside the US. Since he was born in the United States, it doesn't matter how old she was at the time. As to the pregnancy itself, it depends on the young woman, her body type, her activity level and so many other things. The one good thing is the elasticity of 17-18 year old skin returns to normal much faster. As an active young person (with no car) I walked everywhere. I would think someone living in Hawaii and being a college student would be pretty active. I know there are pictures purported to be her out there but I don't think that proves anything. She is not here, nor is anyone else who we can be assured would know when the pictures were taken for sure or to even be convinced they are of his mother. Without any proof of the
time/date/subject, they don't mean much. Nor do the nude pictures some a++h+le is circulating claiming they are Ann Dunham proving she couldn't have been pregnant that summer when the pictures appear to have been taken around Christmas, according to those who have looked at them. I won't and I will tell anyone who passes them around they are absolute sacks of you know what for passing them around. I don't know if they are her or not, but if they are I am sure they were not intended for public consumption and the woman is dead from breast cancer and unable to confirm/deny or defend herself. If they are her, she has grandchildren that will be subjected to finding such things online. That shouldn't have to happen and anyone who participates in the distribution should be ashamed of themselves.

As far as Orly- she is an absolute idiot, but I believe she is a dangerous idiot. She is manipulating members of the military to suit her purpose. Some of those are people who are no longer serving and may not be the most stable of individuals (think Timothy McVeigh). When you have someone egging them on as she is doing, I fear we could have an incident where people will be hurt or killed. I would lay the blame squarely in her lap.

As far as her husband, it is my understanding he is a citizen and had traveled to Israel where he met her. She had immigrated to Israel from Moldavia. They married and he brought her here. I wish he would give her back. It is in the court documents in a Florida case (non-birther) that she told her former client/aide/lover/disbarred attorney she could no longer have anything to do with him or his cases because her husband evidently found out about the alleged affair and told her she would have to sign away her rights to the family wealth if she was going to continue in that vein. She evidently wasn't willing to lose her half of the wealth so she cut Charles off and left him hanging in the court case. The avadavat are entertaining reading if nothing else. She is crazy. I thought she wasn't going to pay the sanction- she was going to fight it to the end. She is asking for donations? Too funny. I guess her husband isn't going to bail her out!!

I totally disagree with you and any of the others who insist that a president has to have two citizen parents. I know we have had several that were born to a citizen and a non-citizen. I will have to try to find that list. And yes, it was well past the time of the adoption of the constitution. I believe there were seven on the list. My brain is not at full functionality right now, I cannot think who they were.
PS- I'm not sure Orly's husband was a Taitz. The info is out there somewhere. I think he was in software or something.

I have no doubt that President Obama is a natural born citizen who was duly elected to the office he now holds. He has made available a birth certificate that is sufficient for all governmental agencies as proof of his citizen birth. As to the rest of the records that people keep asking to see, they are private records that he is not required to show to anyone to hold his office. I wouldn't show mine. They are no one’s business. I show the birth certificate (like the presidents- different state) when needed and social security and marriage certificate when appropriate. That's about it.

I hope this post wasn't too disjointed. I am writing after a long day of working on our house that has left my brain feeling like it is filled with the sawdust I was breathing in.

Can we agree on this? Until it is proven that Obama has done what you all claim he has done then nothing can be done. I know a lot of people. Out of those people, one person is of the birther mind and that's my nephew's wife. She's pretty simple minded so if that's the norm for a birther then I would have to assume that is the norm for all birthers. Most of my work is done for law firms. There is not one attorney I know that buys into this Obama conspiracy and they're all Republicans. They don't like Obama but they're not trying to get him out either.

If you're looking for a way to circumvent the process of removing an elected president from office that is written in the Constitution, then good luck. The majority of America believes Obama was properly vetted regardless of the claims of the birthers that claim their numbers are in the millions.

You have only read that impeachment is the incorrect way to remove Obama because you read it based on 'birther speak'. Every federal judge has written in their opinion that impeachment is the only legal way to remove a sitting president. An overwhelming majority of voters voted for Obama and had no problems with rumors that he wasn't qualified based on birther arguments. And yes, this topic came up during his election. Had it not, the COLB from Hawaii wouldn't have been posted nor would a representative from the State of Hawaii made a statement that they checked into the issue and found that Obama had been born in Hawaii based on their records. Of course, there are those birthtards that claim the statement did not specify Hawaiian birth. Welcome to the grand illusion of the birthtard mind.

The list of presidential candidates that had their eligibility questioned based on their parents' citizenship and all pertinent information:

Chester A. Arthur (1829–1886), 21st president of the United States, was rumored to have been born in Canada. This was never demonstrated by his Democratic opponents, although Arthur Hinman, the attorney in charge of the investigation, raised the objection during his vice-presidential campaign and after the end of his Presidency. Arthur was born in Vermont to a U.S. citizen mother and a father from Ireland, who was eventually naturalized as a U.S. citizen. Despite the fact that his parents took up residence in the United States in 1828 Chester Arthur additionally began to claim between 1870 and 1880 that he had been born in 1830, rather than in 1829, which only caused minor confusion and was even used in several publications. Arthur was sworn in as president when President Garfield died after being shot. Since his Irish father William was naturalized 14 years after Chester Arthur's birth, his citizenship status at birth is unclear, because he was born before the 1868 ratification of the 14th Amendment, which provided that any person born on United States territory and being subject to the jurisdiction thereof was considered a born U.S. citizen, and because he also held British citizenship at birth by patrilineal jus sanguinis. Arthur's natural born citizenship status is therefore equally unclear.

George Romney (1907–1995), who ran for the Republican party nomination in 1968, was born in Mexico to U.S. parents. Romney’s grandfather had emigrated to Mexico in 1886 with his three wives and children after Utah outlawed polygamy. Romney's monogamous parents retained their U.S. citizenship and returned to the United States with him in 1912. Romney never received Mexican citizenship, because the country's nationality laws had been restricted to jus-sanguinis statutes due to prevailing politics aimed against American settlers.

Barry Goldwater (1909–1998) was born in Phoenix, in what was then the Arizona Territory of the United States. During his presidential campaign in 1964, there was a minor controversy over Goldwater's having been born in Arizona when it was not yet a state.

Lowell Weicker (born 1931), the former Connecticut Senator, Representative, and Governor, entered the race for the Republican party nomination of 1980 but dropped out before voting in the primaries began. He was born in Paris, France to parents who were U.S. citizens. His father was an executive for E. R. Squibb & Sons and his mother was the Indian-born daughter of a British general.

Róger Calero (born 1969) was born in Nicaragua and ran as the Socialist Worker's Party presidential candidate in 2004 and 2008. In 2008, Calero appeared on the ballot in Delaware, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York and Vermont.

John McCain (born 1936), who ran for the Republican party nomination in 2000 and was the Republican nominee in 2008, according to his birth certificate, was born of two U.S. citizen parents at Colon Hospital in Colon, Panama. The city of Colon was outside the US administered Canal Zone and remained Panamanian territory throughout the existence of the Panama Canal Zone. A brief birth announcement in The Panama American stated that the birth had taken place at “the Submarine Base Hospital.” The former unincorporated territory Panama Canal Zone and its military facilities were not regarded as United States territory. In March 2008 McCain was opined eligible for Presidency in an opinion paper by former Solicitor General Ted Olson and Harvard Law Professor Laurence H. Tribe. In April 2008 the U.S. Senate approved a non-binding resolution recognizing McCain's status as a natural born citizen. In September 2008 U.S. District Judge William Alsup stated obiter in his ruling that it is “highly probable” that McCain is a natural born citizen, although he acknowledged the possibility that the applicable laws had been enacted after the fact and applied only retroactively. These views have been criticized by Gabriel J. Chin, Professor of Law at the University of Arizona, who argues that McCain was at birth a citizen of Panama and was only retroactively declared a born citizen under 8 U.S.C. § 1403, because at the time of his birth and with regard to the Canal Zone the Supreme Court's Insular Cases overruled the Naturalization Act of 1795, which would otherwise have declared McCain a U.S. citizen immediately at birth. Although the US Foreign Affairs Manual states that children born in the Panama Canal Zone at one point only became U.S. nationals, it also states in general that “it has never been determined definitively by a court whether a person who acquired U.S. citizenship by birth abroad to U.S. citizens is a natural born citizen […]“. In Rogers v. Bellei the Supreme Court only ruled that “children born abroad of Americans are not citizens within the citizenship clause of the 14th Amendment”, and didn't elaborate on the natural born status.

Barack Obama (born 1961), 44th president of the United States, was born in Honolulu, Hawaii to a U.S. citizen mother and a British subject father from what was then the Kenya Colony of the United Kingdom (which became the independent country of Kenya in 1963). Before and after the 2008 presidential election, arguments were made that he is not a natural born citizen. On June 12, 2008, the Obama presidential campaign launched a website to counter what it described as smears by his opponents, including these challenges to his eligibility. The most prominent issue raised against Obama was the claim that he was not actually born in Hawaii. In two other lawsuits, the plaintiffs argued that it was irrelevant whether he was born in Hawaii, but argued instead that he was nevertheless not a natural born citizen because his citizenship status at birth was also governed by the British Nationality Act of 1948. The relevant courts have either denied all applications or declined to render a judgment due to lack of jurisdiction. Some of the cases have been dismissed because of the plaintiff's lack of standing. On July 28, 2009, Hawaii Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino issued a statement saying, “I … have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen,”. On July 27, 2009, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 593, commemorating the 50th anniversary of Hawaii's statehood, including the text, “Whereas the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961.” The vote passed 378-0.

Based on the public statement from a department head of the government of the state of Hawaii, under Hawaii laws, any and all references used to make that statement, are open to public disclosure.

Seeing as the US House of Representatives passed H.R. 593, stating Barack Hussein Obama II, was born in Hawaii, opens to public review, any referenced documents.

Hawaii Revised Statutes §338-18 (g) 3, 4, 5, will allow requests for certified copies of the vital statistic records.

Hawaii Revised Statutes §338-13 Certified copies.
(a) Subject to the requirements of sections 338-16, 338-17, and 338-18, the department of health shall, upon request, furnish to any applicant a certified copy of any certificate, or the contents of any certificate, or any part thereof.

(b) Copies of the contents of any certificate on file in the department, certified by the department shall be considered for all purposes the same as the original, subject to the requirements of sections 338-16, 338-17, and 338-18.

(c) Copies may be made by photography, dry copy reproduction, typing, computer printout or other process approved by the director of health. [L 1949, c 327, §17; RL 1955, §57-16; am L Sp 1959 2d, c 1, §19; HRS §338-13; am L 1978, c 49, §1]

Should the government of Hawaii refuse or resist compliance with the laws of the state of Hawaii, then legal action in the courts, and direct action in the streets, will provide a costly lesson to the tax base of Hawaii.

2. Wrong. His father’s nationality is irrelevant, as is the validity of his parents’ marriage. He was born in the United States and is natural born, as much as someone who can barely read dislikes it.

3. Wrong. No fraud has been committed, there is no conspiracy, and “deceit” is not a crime.

4. Wrong. 69 million citizens voted for him. He didn’t “usurp” anything, not to mention that one does not usurp an election. One usurps a throne. Please stop using words you do not understand.

5. Wrong. The injuries and the bank bailout took place under President Bush. The car companies *asked* for the bailout money and freely accepted the conditions that led to the resignation of high level executives and closure of dealerships. Cash for Clunkers paid a bonus to people who traded in their cars. The government took title to none of them.

When people have complained that President Obama has committed social security fraud, I have posted a link showing how they can report the fraud.

We as a country are used to our leaders being mostly from the Brahman class and this change strikes at the very core of their worldview.

wayoutwest, you are trying to be too sophisticated. It isn't about racism, classism, nativism,or just hate of liberalism, but it is about the validity of the US Constitution, when the candidate says he was born a British subject. Now, I've got nothing against Brits, but Obama, is not, by his own admission, a natural born citizen, nor was he present when the US Constitution was adopted, so he fails eligibility for POTUS. Obama, won the election because Nancy Pelosi fraudulently allowed his nomination certifications to be sent to 49 Secretary of States and 65 million idiots accepted an online display of a certification of live birth as proof of citizenship, totally ignoring the candidate's claim of British citizenship, lack of experience and questionable character, grossly ignoring Martin Luther King Jr. Add to the fiasco, how the media failed to vet Obama, and that they fed from the sensationalism, and whipped up sensationalism of Obama.

Vattel's Law of Nations

§ 212. Citizens and natives.

“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 natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights. The society is supposed to desire this, in consequence of what it owes to its own preservation; and it is presumed, as matter of course, that each citizen, on entering into society, reserves to his children the right of becoming members of it. The country of the fathers is therefore that of the children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent. We shall soon see whether, on their coming to the years of discretion, they may renounce their right, and what they owe to the society in which they were born. I say, that, in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth, and not his country.” …

How many times do we have to deal with this? Is your point that de Vattel used the term “natural-born citizen,” and that his meaning therefore must be shared by the Founding Fathers?

Here's your problem, which has been addressed over and over:

The language you birthers love to quote, the language you have quoted, comes from p. 101 of the 1797 English translation, published in London, of the French original. Take a look:

http://books.google.com/books?id=z8b8rrzRc7AC&d

As you should know, that is 10 years after the conclusion of the Constitutional Convention, and seven years after ratification by Rhode Island (the last of the 13 colonies to ratify). Can you show us a version contemporary to the Constitutional Convention that says the same thing? There was an English translation published in 1759, and one published in 1787. Neither used the term “natural-born citizen.” And the original text in French does not use a direct parallel of “native born citizen.”

So for the Founding Fathers to have based the phrase “natural born citizen” on de Vattel requires that the 1797 translation travel back in time 10 years.

If I remember correctly, she's claiming that she won the Cook case. Wasn't he the reservist that volunteered for active service just so he could become a plaintiff and dispute his orders because Obama was not president in his mind? She didn't win that case. When the army realized what Cook was doing, they just rescinded his orders. How she claims that to be a victory is beyond my comprehension.

Somewhere along the way, the USSC decided man was not a term that specifically had to refer to a male, that it was more inclusive in our modern society. Like when they decided women could vote and black people were more than 2/3 a person and they could vote too! We have changed along the way and no longer specifically refer to many of the words they used in the days that language was written. So substitute parent or mother for father and you have a different story don't you? He was born of a citizen parent, his mother. Raised almost exclusively by said parent and grandparents who were members of what is commonly referred to as the “greatest generation”.

According to those who wrote back then, we women and people of color didn't have any rights when those lines were composed. Things have changed, as have the way we read those same words. We know that we don't have to take it to mean a male when it says men. You know, we who are living in the 21st century. Join us here. You will be happier.

I repeat myself:

Your point is that you hate him. Period. It doesn’t matter that he wrote two books, one a memoir. It doesn’t matter that he posted a copy of his birth certificate on line. It doesn’t matter that he was elected by 69 million Americans. It doesn’t matter that he *reversed* many of the Bush-era concealment policies, and did so almost as soon as he was inaugurated.

None of it is good enough, none of it ever will be good enough, and even if he did produce the hospital birth certificate, all of his college records, and an affidavit from Jesus Christ himself, you would never believe that Barack Obama should be President.

You hate him. And that’s good enough for you to ignore two hundred years of Constitutional law, a valid election, the assertions of people who actually know what they’re talking about (including at least one practicing lawyer, Bearclaw), and the judiciary system of the United States. You hate him, and you will never change your mind, and you’re prepared to keep this thread going and make a public spectacle of yourself because you hate him so much.

As to *why* you hate the President…well, ultimately only you can know that, Gerry. But I cannot imagine for a moment that you, or Orly Taitz, or Phil Berg, or any of the others who have tried and failed to overturn the law, the Constitution, and the will of the people you claim to represent, would be doing this if Barack Hussein Obama II were named John Alan Jones and had that pale north European skin that burns to a crisp in the sun.

You hate him. You have that prerogative. But do not *dare* to speak for me, or call yourself a patriot. Because all you are is a hater. And that is a very sad thing.

Orly says you're quite rude in a post titled Interesting Coincidence that is trying to claim that some other person that has apparently posting harrassing comments is from the same area where 4 police officers were killed.

The person that is apparently making some of these harrassing posts has used the email address of johnc @ yahoo.com and one of her 'little workers' managed to trace that email address back to actor John Cleese of Monty Python fame. Now, she added a post from someone else that lists the dates from appearances he made in a recent tour that puts him near her area, so for sure, it is the actor John Cleese that is making threats against her. In the most recent post as of the time I'm writing this, another loyal follower has posted a link to a YouTube video where John Cleese is talking about how important it is that Obama is elected.

So everyone is against poor Oily. And the judge has to be told how he has a right to order an investigation. If she has indeed received death threats, I wonder if she has stopped to consider how many threats she is responsible for against our president? Maybe her husband will move her back to Israel?

She hasn't figured out that you reap what you sow. It has been so slow here lately and as long as she keeps up doing what she's doing, I'm egging her on. I decided to go with some of the loones and post that I know something about what ever they're posting.

Two recent post that have made it through. One that was signed by Al Wais Priapus using broken English to relay my message. That's been posted for everyone to see. Then I commented on a post by another person that posted a link to some Marine that supposedly spoke to Obama back in 1980 that says he remembers Obama told him he was born in Kenya. Commenting on that post as Y.B. Wong, I wrote that I was there and remembered the guy in the photo and also that I remembered Obama saying he was born in Kenya. What the hell. Feed the beast what it wants and make the beast look crazier by the day. That's my motto.

You’re an idiot.

PRESIDENT OBAMA REVOKES BUSH PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS EXECUTIVE ORDER (UPDATED JAN. 26)
On January 21, in one of his first official acts, President Barack Obama revoked the Bush administration’s Executive Order 13233 that severely limited access by the public to presidential records. Click here to see a copy of President Obama’s new Executive Order 13489: http://edocket.access.gpo.gov/2009/pdf/E9-1712.pdf
President Obama firmly committed his administration to a new policy of transparency by symbolically issuing the executive order on his first full day in office. The issuance of the Obama presidential records executive order ends a nearly eight year effort by historians, archivists, political scientists and other stakeholders in federal courts and on Capitol Hill to have the Bush EO revoked on legal grounds or by statute.
The language in the Obama executive order is similar to Executive Order 12667 issued by President Reagan in 1989 which was also in effect during the presidencies of George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton. The Reagan executive order was revoked when President Bush issued EO 13233 in November 2001.
The Obama executive order restores the presumption that the incumbent president, not former presidents, their heirs or designees should be the one asserting claims of executive privilege. The executive order states that only “living” former Presidents can make claims of executive privilege. This removed one of the most egregious sections of the Bush EO that allowed heirs or designees to make claims of executive privilege for an indefinite period after the death of a former President.
In addition, the provisions in the Bush EO allowing former vice presidents to assert executive privilege are gone. In fact, the Obama EO makes it clear that vice presidential records are to be included under the definition of “presidential records.”
Executive Order 13489 also restores the function of the Archivist of the United States’ as an independent arbiter of initial claims of executive privilege. The executive order assumes the Archivist may release records 30 days after notifying the incumbent and former Presidents unless a claim of executive privilege is made.

I listened to the radio interview and her criticizing the McCain campaign because they wouldn't play as dirty as she wanted to. What garbage she is. She best not get in too deep with the birthers.

Number one, I don't see where there are even enough seats up for election to overtake the Democrats majority even if the republicans won every one of them and they can't. Several Repubs are giving up House seats to run for Senate seats. Several of those House seats will go to Democrats. The mayhem and upheaval in the Repub party is telling- they can't get it together as a party. Look what they did in the New York race. Between the conservatives and the regular repubs they managed to turn a 100 year plus seat to the Democrats. I like the way they work. Let 'em keep it up and the Democrats will have an even larger majority.
However, even if they did make a change, it wouldn't be retro, it would be for the future. The point is moot because the Certificate of Live Birth is an acceptable proof of birth and President Obama has already produced his. Just because you don't think it is sufficient doesn't mean it isn't. And the Supreme Court would be the one's to tackle the NBC, not Congress. Congress can't change an Amendment to the Constitution by itself.

The Kenyan document is the only authentic Birth Certificate produced to date and is probably the same one the state of Hawaii has on file. Whatever they have on file contains the information that proves Obama is not constitutionally qualified to even run for president. Obama's well-hidden half-sister Maya has the same COLB and she was born in Indonesia. Then as a boy Obama was adopted in Indonesia as Barry Soetoro(Saetoro). A visit to grandma's in Hawaii became permanant and then came college as a foreign student. We birthers are playing against a stacked deck and the truth may be covered up for years to come. My prayer is that at least my children will see the truth come out about this fraud and will remember me fondly when it does. Another sad aspect of this is that a fine man like Alan Keyes must suffer insult while the one who is dishonest is in the Whitehouse.

His sister has one that states where she was born, just Like President Obama has one that says where he was born, Honolulu, Hawaii. I am not quite sure why you would claim his half sister is “well hidden”. I have seen her picture at various functions, including the State dinner the other evening. There is no indication that the president was adopted, but even if he had been, his parents and or step parents cannot affect his citizenship. He was born in Hawaii so he is an American citizen. His mother sent him back to the states to live when he was 10 because she wanted him to have an American education. While she had continued his education herself between 6 to 10 years of age, she felt it better for him to live with his grandparents. If you continue in this vein, your children are going to remember you as the crazy guy who refused to accept the black president. He is the president and will continue to be. He is and always has been a citizen of the United States and is the duly elected president. If you don't accept that you will be leaving your children a terrible and shameful legacy.

I have never ruled out the Obama might have actually been born in Hawaii just not as a natural-born U.S. citizen. His mother was underage and unable to confer NBC status because she was married to a foreigner. His father was a Brit and hence any offspring of a Brit in 1961 was also a Brit. This explains exactly why no Hawaiian BC has ever been released. The college records probably reflect Obama as an Indonesian or Kenyan and that is why those records are sealed. The only BC that has ever surfaced is from Kenya where his grandmother claimed Obama was born. Any way you look at it the man has never been even once for half-a-second a natural-born U.S. citizen and is therefore illegally holding office. Obama is an illegal-alien.

Your logic is faulty as usual. Knowing that something is not right and willingness to pursue it are separate issues.

The sworn PI report (about Obama's SSA number from CT) is in judge Carter's case file. I have no doubt that Obama used that number since 1986. It is a piece of a mosaic indicating foreign birth.

A person born in Hawaii, having a residence there should have had an SSA number that was issued for Hawaii residents.

Idiot. Complete idiot. The affidavit shows only one SSN for Barack Obama. Nothing fraudulent about that. If it has a “Connecticut” area number, so what? Also nothing fraudulent. Here is what the Social Security Administration has to say about area numbers, which you could have discovered with the slightest research:

“The Area Number is assigned by the geographical region. Prior to 1972, cards were issued in local Social Security offices around the country and the Area Number represented the State in which the card was issued. This did not necessarily have to be the State where the applicant lived, since a person could apply for their card in any Social Security office. Since 1972, when SSA began assigning SSNs and issuing cards centrally from Baltimore, the area number assigned has been based on the ZIP code in the mailing address provided on the application for the original Social Security card. The applicant's mailing address does not have to be the same as their place of residence. Thus, the Area Number does not necessarily represent the State of residence of the applicant, either prior to 1972 or since.”

“Generally, numbers were assigned beginning in the northeast and moving westward. So people on the east coast have the lowest numbers and those on the west coast have the highest numbers.”

“Note: One should not make too much of the “geographical code.” It is not meant to be any kind of useable geographical information. The numbering scheme was designed in 1936 (before computers) to make it easier for SSA to store the applications in our files in Baltimore since the files were organized by regions as well as alphabetically. It was really just a bookkeeping device for our own internal use and was never intended to be anything more than that.”

http://www.socialsecurity.gov/history/ssn/geoca…

And consider that It would only take one mistaken keystroke by an SSA worker to turn a Honolulu zip code (968–) into a Connecticut zip code (068–).

You're right — you'd better not file a formal complaint. It will be laughed at, as it should be.

Nice try, “genius”.

The PI report mentioned that number was issued between 1977 and 1979.
Obama was in high school in Honolulu at that time (thousands of miles from Connecticut).

That leaves us with your speculation that a Honolulu SSA office made a typo and issued a wrong number.

If this was the only “glitch” about Obama's birthplace information, I could buy it (perhaps).

However, placed in the context of so many reports of different countries and Hawaii hospitals as birth places, COLB image posted on the web only, DoH stalled requests for legitimate information, school records sealed,…it does not seem very likely that all those things are independent and happened as a coincidence.

First, it is your accusation. You are bringing it here as an accusation. You are pointing to the affidavit and making an accusatory assertion.

“Judge O(bama) Carter” really? What are you, 16?

Why do you believe the “affidavit” when only an image of it has been posted on the web? Let's make sure we get this right. You believe the PI report after having seen it only on the web? Even though you continually assert that the COLB image posted on the web is suspect? Right?

You believe the PI because their reputation would be at risk if they lied? But the professionals at the Hawaiian DoH have no reputations to worry about?

The confusion is your opinion. Your opinion is not binding ANYWHERE.

I require proof that they are violating and laws. Also, your assertion that if she were truthful, there would be no need to hide, thus your allegations of hiding proof she is lying is a blatant logical fallacy.

Have you made these requests? I would like to see copies of the letters sent to you by the State of Hawaii rejecting your requests for confirmation.

We will continue to make judgments on the facts, not on false proof and innuendo.

The “licensed PI' you refer to was using the same source of information as is available to any of us that wish to pay the price. Ever done a search for someone through White Pages? They give you a little bit of info and then say for $$$ you can see more? It is easy to get if you are willing to pay. People that use such services often can pay for unlimited searches instead of just one. And I can gaurantee you the information is not always accurate. I discovered the site had me down as using more than one ss# which I knew I had never ever done. Someone misread/mistyped when entering my ss# and it nos shows up that I used more than one. Trying to correct such incorrect information is almost impossible and I am still working on it. I know I am not the one who made the error and I am absolutely positive I never used a second number and yet it is there. Ironically, it is one digit off mine and the idiots still can't see that it was a simple error of someone's inputting.

Secondly, do you know how easy it is in most states to become a PI? I know it is much easier than it should be for most. My ex became a licensed PI and I know he should not have been. Way to easy in most places.

As to the affidavit she provided, if that is the information she bought, no one can go after her because she got it that way. They would have to track it back and then if it were an honest mistake, such as someone putting in the info wrong, there would be little to do but insist it be corrected. It would only be actionable if it were intentional misinformation.

“Factcheck” did not sign and send to the court an affidavit that the COLB presented on their web site is genuine.

PI from Ohio did that. No Obama supporter has ever sent a sworn statement to the court about Obama's birthplace or COLB.

In addition, Factcheck.org has been proven wrong about the date when Obama's Kenyan citizenship expired. Their claim was 2 years off. This tells me that they did not really check the COLB with the intent to verify its authenticity, but to provide a cover for Obama.

Obama did not send the COLB to the court and then published the court document on the web.

If PI published the report on her web page (without sending it to the court), I would not have taken her report seriously.

Colin Powell spoke for US government in UN when he was presenting the case for WMDs in Iraq. There were many other government officials who claimed the same. The mere fact that a government official says something does not mean that the statement is truthful.

Dr. Fukino's second press release in July 2009 was made few hours after the declarative resolution in Congress was passed proclaiming that Obama was born in Hawaii. I think that she used the Congress as a cover for her statement.

Her original press release (October 2008) is carefully worded to mislead people into believing that Obama was born in Hawaii without explicitly saying so.

If Obama was indeed born in Hawaii, her original statement would have been very simple: “I have seen the original birth certificate and it confirms Obama's birth in Hawaii”.

You talk about her 2008 release as if it was the end of the line. She made a a second statement confirming, beyond a doubt to anyone who understands English, that the record of Hawaii have him as a born citizen of that land. That 2009 statement is a direct response and refutation of the point you are trying desperately and failing to make above.

Your statement:
“If Obama was indeed born in Hawaii, her original statement would have been very simple: “I have seen the original birth certificate and it confirms Obama’s birth in Hawaii”.”

Her statement from 2009:
““I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, Director of the Hawai?i State Department of Health, have seen the original vital
records maintained on file by the Hawai‘i State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama
was born in Hawai‘i and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement
or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago.””

As I understand it, in the 11th circuit court filed the records in the Cook appeal on October 7. Based on court rules, the Appellant (Orly) had 40 days from that point to file her brief with the court. SHe was notified of this schedule on October 16. the 40 days elapsed on November 16, and the court automatically dismissed her case on November 17th, with the notification being filed on November 24.

Orly filed her brief on December 7. She claimed that she never received the briefing schedule.

And the affidavit says little more than: “I ran a search of a commerical database, “SSN Verifier Plus,” provided by a company in Florida, and this is what turned up.” Ms. Daniels has no more personal knowledge than you or I would if we paid to use the same database.

Which SSA number(s) did Obama use prior to 1986. Report from Susan Daniels goes back only to 1986.

It would be interesting to look into Obama’s college applications for both Occidental College and Columbia University and check the SSA number used. Both applications predate the 1986.

You have yet to prove anybody has done anything illegal. You don't get those answers. That's life for a loser like yourself. And, nobody has to confirm every little detail for you ignorant fools, they have a job to do and that is NOT to buy into your delusional conspiracies. Besides, you've never asked, and your lawyer in NJ is satisfied that Obama is eligible.

You logic is faulty as usual.

The proper conclusion is that government officals do get it wrong even on major issues. We cannot trust them blindly 100% of the time. If there is an easy way of verifying their words – we should do it.

In case of Obama’s birth certificate – it should be a trivial thing to verify, no need to invade a foreign country to check whether words spoken by a government official were truthful.

The president posted his certificate online to prove his birth place. He then allowed FactCheck.org people to come in and examine the document in their own hands and take pictures of it which they posted online. When you consider that he didn't have to do any of that for you or anyone else in the general public, I would say he has done enough. Just because YOU & Oily don't want to accept the proof, doesn't mean it isn't real proof.

When you consider the supposed “Kenyan” certificate has only been seen by a majority of you as a picture or scan online, and yet you are willing to accept that as real even when the Kenyan Embassy says it is not real and that Barack Hussein Obama II was not born in Kenya,- that he could not have been.

So lets weigh it out- on one hand a Certificate of Live Birth stating he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, newspaper clippings from 1961 saying a son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Barack Obama, a republican administration Hawaiian government official and the governor both saying the records in Hawaii prove the president was born in Hawaii, even a story from a friend of the daughter of the doctor who delivered him in Hawaii.

On the other hand you have a Kenyan certificate that has wrong information on it, lists Kenya wrong, has the date wrong, the Kenyan Embassy says is a forgery and that the presidents father was in America at the time the president was born and that the presidents mother never traveled to Kenya. Blended with a crazy russian twit who is trying to egg people into taking up arms against the duly elected government and who got her law degree by correspondence.

On balance, I think I will go with the American birth certificate and the American's who have said they have the original records on file.

I have my theory about it and we have discussed it several times already.

Grandma was a volunteer in the Hawaii probate court. She had access to SSA numbers of deceased people.

Can I prove it – no. You cannot prove that the number was legally issued (as an error by the SSA office) either.

My theory fits nicely into Obama's behavior when it comes to the proof of birthplace. COLB “verified” by Joe Miller, college data sealed, long form BC sealed, DoH refuses to confirm what is supposed to be a trivial data, reports of birth in three countries and two Hawaii hospitals.

Having a faulty SSA number fits nicely into the picture of foreign birth.

It is good question why there are no records prior to 1986 in the report submitted by Susan Daniels. I don’t know the answer.

What is the earliest data stored in the database she searched – perhaps 1986?

I did not see the report from other PI so it is difficult to comment on it.

You should not dismiss the possibility that both of them are telling the truth. It is possible that other PI obtained data prior to 1986.

I did not say that the database searched by Susan Daniels is perfect – I just said that the report is more credible than Obama’s image posted on the private web site. Schwarzenegger could forge a COLB from Hawaii and post the image on the web. Would you accept it as a proof of his Hawaiian birth?

You are so wrong you wouldn't know right if it hit you along side the head. The scan that was posted by the Obama campaign was never “debunked as a forgery” even though several fools that are evidently as challenged as you are tried to declare it as such. It was a scanned copy of the document. Factcheck.org went to Chicago to see the original document that had been scanned in and took pictures of it instead of scanning it themselves in order to head off the accusations about it being “doctored”. The certificate had the proper embossed Hawaiian stamp as well as the signature of the registrar. They checked with Hawaii about how they issue certificates and were able to determine it was an official document, acceptable to any governmental agency that may need one. You are either mentally challenged or extremely bored and just want to argue with people. The president is a natural born citizen, is too smart to have pulled the stupid criminal tricks you and Oily want to accuse him of and he is the president and is going to stay the president. I hope that knowledge sticks in your craw for the next eight years. I think I'm rather enjoying this now- just knowing it's killing fools like you.

It is interesting that the appeal asks for as a relief, that Cook be reinstated to his former job.

Orly's problem is that that that particular form of relief was not part of the original lawsuit.

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure that you are not allowed to modify your original prayer for relief at this point (i.e. in the appeals process).

When you appeal a legal decision, you have to challenge the basis for that descision, not simply reitterate your original argument with a new prayer for relief.

In reality, she has to start all over with a new lawsuit asking for reinstatement. The problem with that, for her at least, is that such a lawsuit would not need to, nor would it be able to make use of the “Obama is an usurper” argument.

Since that is all she cares about, and NOT her clients best interests, she will fail and her client will suffer.

Stefan Cook is not a stupid man. Misguided, maybe, but I don't think it will be too much longer before he figures out (like Connie Rhodes eventually did) that Orly is not working for him.

A COLB bearing the embossed stamp of the State, and the appropriate signature, is a “self-authenticating document.” Imagine the precedent the State of Hawaii sets if it says, “Well, you really can’t trust such a document, so when someone presents one to get a driver’s license, a passport, or in a court proceeding, it will be necessary to call the State of Hawaii and verify that the State issued that COLB on the date shown on the document.” If they give in to you birftards, they have undermined the entire system of self-authentication.

By the way, let’s remind everyone of what you said when I asked how you think over 100 million American voters could get accurate information regarding a candidate’s place of birth, since don’t trust anyone else to judge the authenticity of the document. You said the birth certificate could be posted on a government website! So “government,” which lies and gets things wrong, will post the document on a website, where it could be faked, and you’ll be satisfied with that.

I may be wrong her, as I am not a lawyer, but the 30 day limit for appealing the order for dismissal in the Barnett case has elapesd. The best that Orly can do is appeal the dismisal of her motion for reconsideration. Since there are well defined rules outlining the basis for which one can seek relief from a judgement or order, she would have to argue that one of the following occured IN THE DISMISSAL OF THE MOTION FOR RECONSIDERATION:

(1) mistake, inadvertence, surprise, or excusable neglect;

(2) newly discovered evidence that, with reasonable diligence, could not have been discovered in time to move for a new trial under Rule 59(b);

(3) fraud (whether previously called intrinsic or extrinsic), misrepresentation, or misconduct by an opposing party;

(4) the judgment is void;

(5) the judgment has been satisfied, released, or discharged; it is based on an earlier judgment that has been reversed or vacated; or applying it prospectively is no longer equitable; or

(6) any other reason that justifies relief.

Of course, orly will be totally incapable of doing that.

My prediction is: She will attempt to appeal the original order after the time window for filing the appeal has elapsed. She will attempt to repeat all of her standard arguments without identifying or adressing any reasonable basis for making an appeal. She will fail.

You see, the easiest way for Obama to shut down the “birther's business” would be the release of the original birth certificate. It would not take much of his time – he would not miss his next round of golf or a basketball game.

The willingness to prolong the eligibility issue speaks volumes for itself. A president is supposed to care for all citizens not only those who voted for him. Is he playing games regarding his birthplace? If that is the case – he lied when he promissed to unite the country and change the tone in Washington.

He lied about his muslim upbringing. Why wouldn't he lie about his birthplace?

What errors, Daily Kos first published the fake COLB. Only after the input from public, Obama provided a better looking COLB image.

The DoH never confirmed that COLB was issued on June 6, 2007. Until they confirm it – Obama has a problem.

No, you flagrant cretin. I have no doubts that Obama was born in Hawaii and is eligible because I have a solid grasp on logic, historical scholarship and legal tenants.

The easiest way argument is pure and total bullshit. Obama is not required to answer to your desires. To give in to a slim minority of people who's view is poisoned and distorted is not proper or required. It is a total strawman argument and you fucking know it.

YOU are the person prolonging the issue YOU have convinced yourself that the actual EVIDENCE is not evidence at all. Because you have been convinced there is some larger conspiracy at work, some sinister cabal of people who have pulled off some masterful hoax and are laughing all the way to the bank. You are convinced by talking heads of all of this bullshit and being fed one too many conspiracy stories via Hollywood or Tom Clancy or whatever, you are convinced that you are the one to open all of our eyes, that you are the only ones who knows the real truth and that shadowy forces are hiding this truth. Golly, if only the people would open their eyes and see the truth, we would all be rescued and you could humbly accept our thanks and go back to being good old you.

Well – IT”S FUCKING BULLSHIT. And you know it. You have expressed your belief below (finally) that all of the innuendo, rumors and forgeries are all just perfect fits into this tapestry of cover-up. But you admit that you have NOT ONE SHRED OF FUCKING PROOF THAT WOULD HOLD UP TO ANY SORT OF SCRUTINY. I want to let you know that I mean those caps, I really do. You are so fucking ignorant that I feel that yelling directly into your face would be the only way to get some actual sense into your brain.

All you have is your suspicion – that is it. Suspicion does not a case make. Your like this idiot I knew in college who would use the “anything is possible” argument to support any assertion he made.

Now, any logical person has to admit that, philosophically, anything is possible. Is it possible that all the theories floated by whack-jobs such as yourself are true? Yes, it is possible. I regret even writing that because I am convinced that in your logic deprived mind, you'll latch on to that like pitbull on a poodle. And if you want to continue to stay convinced go right ahead, but I have a news flash for you:

You live in the real world.

In the real world, outside of your home (or even inside if you have kids) people make decisions not on what is POSSIBLE, but what is PROBABLE. Probability is often determined through a pro and con process where the best EVIDENCE in considered. If you want to make an accusation, go ahead. When your accusation is countered with widely accepted proof, you either have to shut up or..

or….

you ready for it…

I hope so (although I doubt it because you haven't accepted it before)…

FIND COUNTER PROOF!!!!!!!!!

YOU HAVE NO PROOF! Allow me to repeat myself and others for the umpteenth time…

YOU HAVE NO PROOF!

But, Hell, let me bring it on home for you. You hold dear this claim that there are reports that he was born in three different countries. It is part of your Tapestry of Rumors. So, we have credible proof that he was born in Hawaii. A lawful COLB and two official statements from the State. What do you have from Kenya and some other third country? Two completely different, clearly forged and debunked birth certificates that have been neither confirmed nor denied by either nation. So you have credible proof from one nation, but not from the two others. YOU HAVE NO PROOF

But…. you continue in your belief. You continue in the face of evidence, to believe. That is IGNORANCE. It's WILLFUL IGNORANCE. It's also a total fucking hypocrisy on your part, given your repeated parroting of the incorrect point that the COLB on factcheck is not valid. If the image on factcheck isn't valid, then how the fuck are any of the Kenyan forgeries valid? It's this kind of blatant logical idiocy and hypocrisy that wastes our time and causes elevated stress levels. Dealing with idiots like you, who want to derail the workings of the duly elected officials of our nation in times where real leadership is needed. If you want to disagree with on POLICY, go right ahead.

We are oh so fucking tired of your repeating the same tired motherfucking bullshit over and over while we try to entertain ourselves with the game of running your inane assertions to their absurd and logical ends.

No, their businesses we deprived of corporate support (not taken from them) by a business decision. They still owned their stock, their buildings and all other assets they had acquired. No political act directly removed Chryslers corporate support from them, nor did any political act forcibly take from them any property.

A political decision was made to save Chrysler from failure, thus allowing all dealerships to survive. A corporate decision was made to remove support from some dealerships and keep supporting the rest. Those decisions were not made by Obama and we made on fiscal concerns r.e. their dealerships liability.

Also, any quo warranto challenge would be a challenge to Congresses authority to allocate funds for the bailout of a private firm, not on whether Obama has a right to be President under Article II.

This is exactly what we are talking about NC – you are just repeating completely incorrect information from unreliable news sources. Please, for the love of God – USE YOUR BRAIN (if it is still in working order)

And as the link you provided states:

Birthers in the know have a new strategy, they no longer claim Obama was born in Kenya, but now contend that since by Obama's own admission his father never was a U.S. citizen, Obama was born a dual citizen. The framers of the Constitution, they argue, did not consider a dual citizen to be a “natural born citizen” as required for the presidency.

The Birthers are wrong. The fact is Obama is a natural born citizen, because he was born on native soil. This is all that English common law, or the US Supreme Court, requires to satisfy the claim as natural born citizen.

No, the Obama campaign posted it online. They had it in their possession and scanned it in. Due to time differences they were unable to contact Hawaii to determine if the number on the certificate had any meaning that shouldn't be made public so they blacked it out. After ascertaining at a later date that it was just the birth record number they removed the black box covering the number.

Assuming there was a government decision to close these dealerships (big assumption), the dealers may have a right to challenge the merits of that government decision (for example, arguing that the decision was “arbitrary or capricious” under the Administrative Procedure Act), and seek to have the government action set aside. But there is no way in hell they have standing to challenge President Obama's eligibility for the Presidency.

Oh and btw, Chrsyler did go into bankruptcy. Treasury issued TARP funds to old Carco LLC to purchase CHrysler Motors LLC during their bankruptcy. Also, it might surpise you to know that the US government is a minority shareholder in the new Chrysler LLC, 9%, so don't tell me that Obama is somehow calling the shots.

Bond holders were paid 26 cents on the dollar for their shares of Carco during the bankruptcy. That Unions had enough money to buy into New Chrysler is not part of the lawsuit now is it? Yes, using cash or assets to purchase assets is a business decision.

Nowhere in my post have I said that I know what the investigation will reveal. Read the first sentence from my previous post again.

I know that government and unions got much bigger share of car companies than bond holders – compared to what each party invested into company. This indicates to me that a political deal was in play – not a business decision.

It is not far fetched to assume that political calcualtions were employed when choosing dealerships to be closed. However, we do not need to speculate on this one. Let the case goes to court and let the investigation begin. Once people are under oath we will find out the background information that has not been available to the public.

As I mentioned before – I do not think that Obama will risk having this case go to trial – I expect to see a settlement.

And if the Obama Administration had decided to do nothing to aid Chrysler, then all of the dealers would now be out of business.

Hey folks, NC made up a new law!!!

Suppose you take your embossed birth certificate to the Department of Motor Vehicles to get a driver's license, or to get a passport. You show it to the person at the counter. They look at. It looks real. But, now under “NC's Law of Required Verification of Self-Authenticating Documents” the person behind the counter must get verification from the State that issued your document, confirming that they in fact issued your document.

Now, this probably can't be done over the phone. So you have to wait at the counter until an employee of the State or County vital records department of your native state is able to arrive at the service counter there at your local DMV, to check the document and give it an official “okey dokey.” (And then there will probably have to be a process to verify that the verifier is in fact authorized to verify the document. You just can't be too careful.)

And if your argument is that the Founding Fathers could read the original French, please identify which members of the Committee of Eleven (which drafted the “natural born citizen” requirement) spoke French, and then provide the original French text and explain why the only plausible translation is “natural born citizen” (difficult, given that the two English translations available in 1787 didn't use “natural born citizen”).

The Library Company of Philadelphia which holds one of the three copies, lists the 1775 reference to this book, as “Le droit des gens,” from the publishing house of Chez E. van Harrevelt in Amsterdam, Holland, with a personal note to Franklin from the editor of this edition, C.G.F. Dumas. The fact that this particular volume that Franklin ordered is in French is significant, for at that time French was considered by the “family of nations” to be the diplomatic language, and the 1775 edition was considered the most exact reference of Vattel’s Law of Nations.

There is no doubt that the Founding Fathers did not exclusively use the English translation, but relied upon the French original.

Chrysler was not a government operation until the bailout came about. Therefore nobody would have had a standing to sue about government inaction. Did anybody sue government for not bailing out other companies who went through normal bankruptcy procedure?

A bankruptcy should not involve the government takeover of a company. In case of Chrysler, it was a “political bankruptcy”, a decision to reward union workers because of their support of Obama.

If the case goes to trial, we will find out whether the people, who made the decision about dealership closures, had been influenced by operatives from Obama administration.

Yeah, I pretty much don't agree with your entire post.

“It would be a bit hypocrytical to show concern about naturalization law by advocating for tougher citizenship exams, and at the same time support the people who broke immigration laws.”

In fact, it would be entirely consistent. See, you are the idiot because you missed the point of my post entirely. That laws are complex and drafting them is not a purely black and white exercise. Someone who IS concerned about the legality of aliens but also possessed of some compassion and pragmatism about the mass exodus of people that would be involved would consider tougher tests and a myriad of other tests to offer citizenship.

Your black and white world is real.

“A bankruptcy should not involve the government takeover of a company.”

It didn't. The US government has never owned a majority stake in Chrysler.

“In case of Chrysler, it was a “political bankruptcy”, a decision to reward union workers because of their support of Obama.”

There was an amnesty in the 1980s. Government promissed to control the border. Guess what – politicans lied.
The illiegal immigration problem became worse than it was before the first amnesty.
If the “Amnesty 2.0″ law is passed, 20 – 30 years down the line the same problem will happen again, it will be worse than it is today.

The reason for amnesty is simple: Beef up the base for Democratic party.

Are you in business? Do you have a clue about being a CEO of a large multi-faceted business? There were a multitude of items on the checklist that Chrysler used to make the decisions about which dealerships closed, among them whether the dealership was profitable. Other considerations were locations of dealers. Too many of one kind in an area that wasn't significantly large enough to support them. Other considerations I read about were other dealerships the same dealer held. There are numerous dealers who also sell other new cars. Like Dodge and Honda. How loyal should a company in trouble be to a dealer that obtained other dealerships to sell competition cars? Particularly when it is one of the car brand that are responsible for the decline in American cars?

You are so ready to blame the Obama administration for anything because you hate him so much, some of you idiots were blaming the swine flu on them. A flu that originated in other countries and found it's way here.

There were so many considerations, including protecting the workers that had all their eggs in the automaker basket. You're complaining that shares didn't get as much as the unions, but the shareholders aren't the ones working there and having all their health care and retirement tied up in the job. If the Congress hadn't voted to give the loans they needed to keep going, the jobs loss would have been so much worse than it is now. Not only all the autoworkers out of work, but all the people working in support industries. The ones that supply all the parts and pieces. Not to mention all the dealers that would have closed. Can you weigh it out? All or some? Which is worse? If you can't see the answer to that, you are truly an idiot. Why don't you give it a rest for a change and try to expand your horizons. You truly are sounding like Oily . I'm not so sure you aren't her, trying to defend her stupidity.

You just keep on, finding anything and everything you can to complain about. You will never be happy because you hate Obama. You might as well admit that. But I had a chance to read the speech he gave today in Oslo and it reminded me why I voted for him. He even got praise from Newt Gingrich on his speech. It was truly masterful. While he acknowledged peace was the ultimate goal, he reminded the world that their freedom frequently was as a result of American might, American blood and American lives. That sometimes war was necessary to maintain peace. It was up there with his top speeches and it was to the world. I am proud to be one of the Americans that put this man in office. Looking at him and what he is trying to do for this country and then reading the crap that people like you post on here really pisses me off. You are crap in comparison to our president and by ignoring all of you detractors and concentrating on the job he is trying to do proves how much bigger person he is than you.

The plan to close dealerships was submitted to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court by Chrysler, and was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. It wasn't proposed by President Obama. It wasn't approved by President Obama. The only way to challenge the court's decision is through the direct appeal of the court's decisions. You cannot attack it collaterally by a suit against the President. In the end, the dealerships will still be closed.

Jesus Christ, you continue to reveal the depths of your idiocy.

See, you are talking about enforcement of current laws – but you changed the subject from a debate about amnesty – which would be a new law.

You do see that right? I do support the rule of law but the entire reason the debate exists is because current laws don't do the trick. Regardless, desperate people's cross our borders regardless of the law. We have not the man-power or budget to enforce the laws as they currently are. In the face of this, legislators consider new laws. I recognize that current laws and enforcement have failed and we have a new problem to face. I recognize that we cannot just give all illegals amnesty, nor can we round them all up and deport them Gestapo style. Therefore, a solution must be found in between. Finding that solution involves asking tough questions of our politicians – pragmatic questions but also questions of our ideals. Governing in America has always been a struggle between principles and pragmatism.

This complexity is my point and it is the reality you stubbornly ignore.

You are such a fucking moron.

The facts about closed dealerships should already be known before you file. The courts are NOT a fact finding tool – they are a deciding tool.

To have a case the plaintiffs must have already gathered facts and drawn conclusions from them. It’s is your hope that the statistics show that a more Republican dealerships were closed that Democratic. Even if the 789 closed shops came out 500 Repub to 289 Demo (purely made up). You would claim victory – but you would be incorrect.

First, you would to prove that the number of closed Republican shops was disproportionately higher. then you would have to use any depositions you have gathered to show inconsistencies in the criteria applied to that decision to close Repub over Demo shops. Then you would have to use evidence of communication or collaboration between Chrysler employees of intent to keep Demo shops open and Republican shops closed. Then you would have to show evidence of communication and collaboration between Chrysler officials and government officials along the same lines.

All of this must be gathered BEFORE you file. The courts are not required to gather this information for you. this is a fundamental tenant of our legal system and you have demonstrated repeated ignorance of this.

Also, even if you had evidence of all of this – you would only have cause to sue Chrysler. At this point, if you wanted to use the legal system, you would have to convince law enforcement to convene a grand jury and summon Auto Task Force and Chrysler officials (and Fiat executives and Canadian officials and union executives) to testify under oath. If testimony revealed illegal influence being applied, you could sue the Treasury department. Only now would a quo warranto writ be applied to the Treasury officials who made applied this pressure. (Which would be an interesting case, as any administrative law student will tell you) However, even then you would have to get a administration insider to testify, under oath, that Obama himself directly order Treasury officials to tell Chrysler to chose Republican dealerships over Democratic.

This is American Justice – for better or for worse.

Learn it and you’ll do use all a big favor.

“Your scenario is possible for people who have no principles.”

Yet another example of a lack of depth in your reasoning.
People who have principles often have more than one. They can have a principle they hold wherein they hold to the rule of law, as you espouse. In this situation, someone holding strongly to this principle would advocate strict border patrolling, even a fence. I would agree with that, lets find some room in the budget of the Dept. of the Interior for that. See, now it becomes less simple. What other parts of the Interior budget do we slash? Does that cut conflict with our principles as well?

Also, someone who holds dear the principle of strict enforcement of immigration laws and opposes any sort of amnesty at all (I am going to include you here) may also support a nationwide crack-down on illegals. This would involve a large scale law enforcement effort where-in we aggressively find, detain, process and deport all illegals. Now, first, you have the budget issue again. Secondly, we start to bump up against our principles gain. Do our principles support the wholesale round up illegals like so much cattle? Do our principles support the idea of herding these souls into interment camps while we determine who is truly illegal or not? In this scenario people are reminded (to varying degrees of hyperbole) of the Holocaust or American treatment of Japanese citizens in WWII.
Thirdly, we bump up against our principles again when we have to admit that America is great because of her immigrants.

So, when using the fullness of our intellect, we understand that the problem of illegal immigration is not a black and white issue involving just ONE principle but many principles that find themselves competing in this particular situation.

Again, governing is complex. Perhaps you can try to wrap your head around that.

If Ford didn't want their
competitors to get money loaned from the government, why did the CEO from Ford appear in front of Congress with the CEO's from the other two major American companies, not just once, but twice, asking that Congress provide them the money? The first time they all arrived by their personal jets and were denied, the second time the three of them carpooled in a hybrid car. Ford wanted the money to be available to all of them, even though Ford didn't have to take it at that time. They hoped they wouldn't have to take it, but they wanted to know it was there if needed. Don't forget, these are loans- to be paid back. It isn't free money, it isn't a grant or gift. As security for the loans, we have stock to guarantee them. Not unusual to have security for a loan. And Ford is the only one that has shown an real increase in sales, so it didn't hurt them at all that the others took the loans. People working means people buying cars. Since not all those employed in the industry work for one of the major car companies, keeping all those jobs intact by helping the car companies stay in business helps everyone. You should be able to figure that out on your own, but you have such blinders on, you can't see the forest for the trees. You sound as stupid as the old folks at the town halls saying keep the government hands off my medicare when medicare is a government program. Just laughably stupid.

Now come on YMBJ, you just KNOW NC has no clue about Econ 101. As well as the constitution. Also the law. Hell, no real knowledge about anything other than she doesn't want Obama for President.

I know, but it was all over the news how they all showed up, hat in hand. Surely NC pays some attention to news, hopefully other than Faux News.

It is obvious that Ford CEO made a mistake. He was hedging his bets by making sure his company would have access to government money. In the end by being the strongest company that did not need government funds, it turned out that their competitors were bailed out and Ford sales suffered as a consequence.

Without government bailout of Chrysler and GM, Ford sales would have increased significantly.

I see, now you're an expert on the car industry and economics. Right NC, just like you're an expert on the law. Explain why there would not have been further belt-tightening by the consumers when GM and Chrysler went out of business putting thousands of well-paid worker into the unemployment lines. Also, how many more would be put out of work in the associated parts industry that supplies them.

NC you're a Dufus- Ford sales have increased significantly. As I stated earlier. Sales have gone up. But Ford has paid a lot more attention to high MPG cars and has been the top car company in the US until last year when Toyota took the spot away. Ford has had the top selling truck for ages. You know not of what you speak.

No other presidential candidate had his birth reported in several countries and two different Hawaii hospitals. People are curious about where his birthplace is.

I could care less about any (foreign) birth certificate, just the one from Hawaii.

You have no idea what you are talking about.

GM has been #1 in the USA and still is (ahead of Toyota).
Ford is number #3.

The world did not end when major airlines went bankrupt in the past (many of them are not around any more).

The rest of the industry picked up the business from those companies.

Government should not prop up inefficient car companies like GM and Chrysler. Their business would be taken over by other car companies. Other companies would have to hire more people to handle increased business.

The F150 has been the #1 truck for years. It just lost its spot I believe it was earlier this year. Ford recently announced their sales had increased in this period since they appeared in DC. This thread must end. It is too small.

Huge difference between airlines and auto co. Have you ever read the history of the Great Depression? Do you know what it was like? My parents lived it. Did yours?
