Obama may not
« on: June 11, 2008, 12:34:37 AM »
be a NATURAL born American?

http://worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=66787

Seems there is a question about his birth.... as in location of........

Interesting article.

If true, if Obama wasn't born in U.S. then wouldn't that DISQUALIFY him?

IIRC you have to be a natural born American citizen to be president, even though most if not all other offices require only citizenship for a certain period of time.

He is a natural born citizen IF one of his parents was a citizen of the U.S. at the time of his birth....regardless of where they were in the world when he was born.

To be the President you MUST be a NATURAL BORN U.S. citizen IIRC.

The media was making quite a big deal about Schwarzenegger many years ago.

Struck me as odd, but when he was elected in CA the media kept bringing up the fact that he wasn't a natural born citizen (he's from Austria) and laws would need to be changed if he were to run for the presidency.

He was a first term "Republican" governor of CA, does this automatically mean he would run for President?

Obama was born on August 4, 1961, at the Kapiolani Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Obama, Sr., of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, of Wichita, Kansas, who was largely descended from pre-revolutionary British settlers to the United States, although her great-great-grandfather Falmouth Kearney emigrated from Ireland in the mid 19th century.

So says Wiki.

Probably all a conspiracy.

That would be hilarious if Obama was not constitutionally eligible to be president.

something tells me that somebody has already covered this base already. 

no way he got this far and hasn't had his background thoroughly researched.

i mean, can you imagine?

They should change the law so Christopher Hitchens could run.

Interesting article, though.  It mentions during the time that Obama was born that the law states he was not a natural born citizen.  It gave specific years to which this rule applied.  Now does this apply forever?  Or would a more loose law that came into effect later (after he was born) take precedent?
