If he is elected, he will be elected by the *people*. Any messing with that is called a coup. The courts have consistently maintained a hands off approach to this issue, as they should. I would also point out, this does not only concern Obama, it also concerns McCain. McCain's "natural born" status is not a certainty.

If you are born of US citizens in a US embassy in France are you a natural born US citizen? The 1790 Congress, many of whose members had been members of the Constitutional Convention, provided in the Naturalization Act of 1790 that "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." In addition George Washington was president of the Constitutional Convention and President of the United States when this bill became law. If Washington disagreed with this definition, he could have vetoed this bill. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural-born_citizen Gosharoonie, that means that Obama, even if he were born in Kenya of a mom who was a U.S. citizen is...a natural born citizen... snerk |

"And the children of citizens of the United States that may be born beyond the sea..." It reads children of citizens, plural. |

" When one parent was a US citizen and the other a foreign national, the US citizen parent must have resided in the US for a total of 10 years prior to the birth of the child, with five of the years after the age of 14. An exception for people serving in the military was created by considering time spent outside the US on military duty as time spent in the US." From: http://www.visalaw.com/01mar2/12mar201.html But then, apparently, Obama's Mom was young when she had him. So, there's a question about the five years after the age of 14. This stuff will give you a headache. |

I'd like to challenge that law. And, I have legal standing to do so. You don't have a legal standing to do squat until a final ruling that you have such standing. Let us know when you prevail - or even get a preliminary hearing. Sure I have legal standing. I am a US citizen, a citizen of one of the several states and a legal voter. How much more standing can I have? Just because a judge doesn't want to hear the case and issues an opinion that I don't have standing doesn't mean I don't have standing to challenge Obama's ability to comply with the provisions of Article II, Section 1 of the US Constitution. |
