The case also raises the circumstances of Obama's time during his youth in Indonesia, where he was listed as having Indonesian citizenship. Indonesia does not allow dual citizenship, raising the possibility of Obama's mother having given up his U.S. citizenship.
The fact that this issue was raised TOTALLY discredits it for me.
I, a homemaker and rural resident, with 2 minutes of research, found out that a parent CANNOT "give up" his or her child's US citizenship and I have posted the information at least twice on this board. So, the fact that this is being included in this inquiry or whatever it is, indicates that this is a which hunt to me.
His grandmother said, "Barack is a son of this village."
Sorry. Not credible.

....Ive read all the half dozen or so other lawsuits and I guess five states will be requesting same including his own soon. It's starting to snowball and what is so irritating is Obama could have avoided all this LONG ago, so the axiom is true, if you don't have enough time to do it right, then you will find the time to do it over again. hehe
“When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.
Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his U.S. citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to Kenya, his Kenyan citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”

I can't believe I wasted time reading this ridiculous thread.
The article states that 'a youtube clip shows BO's grandmother claiming that Barack was born in Kenya'.
What she actually says in the clip is that 'Barack is a son of this village'.
If whoever wrote that garbage for WorldNetDaily can't put that statement into the context of metaphor, then they are undoubtedly an idiot. And, let me get this straight, this line from the grandmother is the 'smoking gun'? This quote is what all the fuss is about?
Are you serious? I mean... are you for real?
That many people have been working on whether BO is eligible by birth or not... and that's the best evidence they've got?
I enjoy coming to ATS, but there are some real meatheads on here. Obama won the election. Get over it. Go channel some Zeta-Riticulans or something.

I am not a "guy" and I will place the blame where I see fit.
Keyes was defeated by Obama for the Illinois Senate seat in 2004, saying that Jesus Christ would not vote for Obama, and Keyes has been after him ever since. He hates Obama. It's clear to me that this is a personal vendetta on Keyes' part, and will wind up along with the rest of the frivolous lawsuits against Obama on this issue.... In the trash.
Alan Keyes would fit right in on this board with everything he's said about Obama.

He's also a regular contributor to World Net Daily.

Yeah well a lot of us in Chicago know what Barry Obama is and without going into detail Barry is nothing but a cog in the Chicago Daley Political Machine and aint one of us lives in Chicago knows he is well connected and disrespected because of it. Obama has used spurious means to advance his political carreer so much it makes Nixon look like a Choir boy
His redistributing the wealth garbage has Illinois 44 Billion in the hole, education near last on the list and healthcare costs so out of control it is a joke. Yeah he "Changed" Illinois all right but he sure didn't "Improve" a damn thing
