Updated: Snopes Obama passport issue does not prove "false"

The other Presidents wern't asked because their citizenship wasn't in question.

Neither is Obama's, except with a certain type of person with a lot of hatred in them

This man and All Presidents should have been vetted.

They all were, but you ignore that

SomeoneS didn't do their job and now the American People have no idea about way too many things concerning our president, citizenship being at the top of a long list including the passport issue.

Wrong, Obama has shown proof he was born in the USA, and as has been shown here, there is no passport issue

If he's valid then where's his respect for us?

Where is your respect for him? Oh, he as he is black you refuse to respect him!

If he had any he would show us the answers

He has shown the answers, but certain people refuse to accept the facts!

What's his problem if there's no problem?

You are the one with the problem here

Do you have a Idaho government website that states that? What is your source?

John McCain's status as a natural born citizen was called into question and there was a full senate investigation if i am not mistaken. This article mentions two others who have had their citizenship question. They happen to be white. Maybe yelling racism isn't the best way to debate this.

Care to point out the result of this full senate investigation - who was the chairman of it?

Except that they were not born in a state of the USA, like Obama was!

Looking it up it wasn't a senate investigation but a resolution of the senate stating he was a natural born citizen.

The second author is kind of ironic...

^ S.Res.511: A resolution recognizing that John Sidney McCain, III, is a natural born citizen; sponsors: Sen. Claire McCaskill, Sen. Barack Obama et al.; page S2951 notes Chairman Patrick Leahy as agreeing to Secretary Michael Chertoff's "assumption and understanding" that a citizen is a natural born citizen, if he or she was "born of American parents"


I'm not arguing that obama is not eligible for office. I think we have bigger issues. I was simply making a statement that there is a precedent for questioning politician's citizenship, whereas you were implying that it is only because he is black.
