What does that mean for Obama’s loyalties to the US and ability to rule? The argument is that if a person is not a natural born citizen, then he would betray the country? Or is it that we fear he will put the interests of Kenya or Britain over the interest of the United States? Or are you worried that he won’t be isolationist enough? What, per say, do you want your county back from, other than the Democratic Party?

This sounds like the same trivial unfounded whining the Democrats made with chads and a Supreme Court ruling in 2000. What was the mantra then? “Get over it and move on for the nation”

Who are you to judge what is “implausible?” People do strange things all the time. You folks are doing some seriously strange stuff! Moreover, in your synopsis, Barack Obama was born in Hawaii. Is the fact that his mom took off for a university gig on the mainland now a disqualification for him to be president as well? Has anyone questioned Sarah Palin’s peripatetic college career? Would attending five different schools disqualify her? Or would her mother have had to do that?

You “frightened, ignorant, idiot white folks still prowling the streets and listening to right-wing talk radio,” to borrow from Klein again, really are despicable. This is racism plain and simple. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Commentary on University Emails:

For the BHO II Hawaiian Aug 4 1961 COLB to be accurate the following improbable events needed to occur:

1 month after starting classes, Stanley Ann Dunham, Barack’s mom, at age 17, got pregnant by the only African man on the entire chain of Hawaiian islands.
2 months after getting pregnant, she drops out of college.
3 months after getting pregnant, she marries BHO Sr.
10 months after her first day at the U of HI, she delivers BHO II and immediately leaves her parents, her new husband, and her home, to fly alone with a newborn 2800 miles to Seattle to start college at the U of W.
Stanley Ann Dunham does not return to Hawaii until AFTER BHO Sr left the islands for Harvard.

This is an implausible series of events made even more nefarious because Obama II in his 2 bio books never mentions his mom left Hawaii when she was married to BHO Sr, nor does he mention she was in Washington State during this time.

Your country never left. It’s still here. No one has taken it from you.

I’m going to quote Time Magazine columnist Joe Klein, who has perhaps the best interpretation of what the Birther movement is really about:

“Let me tell you what this is all about: The President of the United States is named Barack Hussein Obama. He is the first chief executive of this grand and good nation not to be melanin-deprived. There are a fair number of frightened, ignorant, idiot white folks still prowling the streets. They listen to right-wing talk radio. They show up at Republican town meetings. They can not believe that a man named Barack Hussein Obama could actually have been elected President. I must admit, I relish their discomfort. But I wish they’d go away.”

He’s got you folks nailed. There are a lot of us who hear the dog-whistle.

Thank you so much for answering DR Larson. You did that very nicely.

The only place I might disagree with you (slightly) is his mother’s age … it impacts on his citizenship whether he was born inside or outside the states. There is a strong case to be made that Obama was born a British subject. At best Obama was born with dual citizenship, which as you point out makes him ineligible for the office of POTUS. Clearly he was not born a natural born citizen.

If he were born outside of the US, he most definitely is NOT a Natural Born Citizen, due to his mother’s age at the time of his birth. The laws on the books at the time stated she must be age 21 at the time of his birth to have passed on Natural Born Status.

Bottom line – it makes NO DIFFERENCE where Obama was born. What matters is the citizenship of his parents. 1 was a US Citizen and 1 was a British Subject – giving Obama dual-citizenship AT BIRTH, making him ineligible to legally be POTUS. He is an usurper. Period – End of Argument!

The real question is this:
During the election, then Senator Obama published a statement at his website which said that his birth status was “governed” by the British Nationality Act of 1948. Can you please tell the American people how a natural born citizen of the United States can be governed – at birth – by British law?

You state that both parents must be citizens, however you did not read your own link. This is from that link:

“In many circumstances, even though a child is born outside the United States, if at least one parent was a U.S. citizen at the time of the child’s birth, the child automatically “acquires” citizenship. When this child marries and has children, those children may also acquire U.S. citizenship at birth.”
