What next? His kids are illegitimate?
Clearly, there is something going on here.
We want Joe Biden to take over as POTUS. Let Hillary run for the DNC.
Hint: She needs a makeover and a VP.

For President: 35 years old, natural born citizen, or ( being a citizen at the time the Constitution was adopted.), and living in the US for 14 years prior to election.
NOTE: Obama was not alive at the time the Constitution was adopted. therefore he would have to be a natural born citizen, not an immigrant such as is allowed for Senate, and for Congress. In fact, even natural born citizens must be living in the US for 14 years prior to running for President of the US.
There is a big difference to being an immigrant citizen, and being a natural born citizen.
I agree with all of the above but how does obama not fill the required criteria. I am puzzled. He was born in hawaii as evidenced by the certificate of live birth. Apparently that is what they call the birth certificate in hawaii.
Donald Trump played the birther card, lost and was humiliated. I can't believe some people still think his birth certificate is fake.
His parents were not born in the USA and that is what might becausing grief to some strict constitutionalists, especially those of the right movement. I would let it go as we have more important issues to worry about.

no, you are wrong....2 american parents=american citizenship.....
The Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 requires an alien to apply for a petition for naturalization. This form may be obtained from any office of the Immigration and Naturalization Service, a division of the Department of Justice, or from any court authorized to naturalize aliens. Before applying, an alien must be at least 18 years old and must have been lawfully admitted to live permanently in the United States. He must have lived in the United States for five years and for the last six months in the state where he seeks to be naturalized. In some cases, he need only have lived three years in the United States. He must be of good moral character and "attached to the principles of the Constitution". The law states that an alien is not of good moral character if he is a drunkard, has committed adultery, has more than one wife, makes his living by gambling, has lied to the Immigration and Naturalization Service, has been in jail more than 180 days for any reason during his five years in the United States, or is a convicted murderer.
Indonesian law at the time also did not recognize dual citizenship, meaning if Obama became Indonesian, then as far as that country was concerned, his U.S. citizenship was no longer recognized by Indonesia. But U.S. law would still recognize Obama as an American citizen.

There is nothing in there regarding requiring the mother to be 18 years old. Not to mention she was 18 at the time. All that s required is for her to have spent a total of five years living in the US, two of which were after the age of 14. She qualifies for this and thus passes on citizenship to Obama. Of course once again this is all moot as he was born in Hawaii.edit on 3/1/2012 by Xcalibur254 because: (no reason given)

As the infamous Judge Wapner used to say:
A prepondernece of the evidence shows the following:
1 - "if" Mr. Obama was born in Hawaii (this is the fact in question) then he was previously and is now eligable to be the President of the United States, or Vice President.
2 - thru a six month investigation performed by a group of cold case professional investigators including retired judges, police offiers and other persons, probable cause has been presented that: The Cold Case Posse investigators advised Sheriff Arpaio that the forgers most likely committed two crimes: first, in fraudulently creating a forgery that the White House characterized, knowingly or unknowingly, as an officially produced governmental birth record; and second, in fraudulently presenting to the residents of Maricopa County and to the American public at large a forgery the White House represented as "proof positive" of President Obama's authentic 1961 Hawaii long-form birth certificate. "A continuing investigation is needed to identify the identity of the person or persons involved in creating the alleged birth certificate forgery, and to determine who, if anyone, in the White House or the state of Hawaii may have authorized the forgery,"
Number 2 brings into question, if the birthcertificate is a forgery, then was Mr. Obama born in Hawaii and more importantly, did some person or persons with or without intent, commit fraud?
