It is very clear that one born of a US mother and a Kenyan father is not a valid eligible candidate for Potus.
Can you show me where the Constitution states that your parents must have been born in the US in order for a citizen to serve as President?
I'll do you one better...Here is a spattering of US Presidents who had parents that were NOT born in the US...
James Buchanan (1857-1861)
Andrew Johnson (1865-1869)
Chester Arthur (1881-1885)
Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921)
Herbert Hoover (1929-1933)
Of course guys like George Washington and others were not born American Citizens at all, but ...but we can give them an outright pass since there was
no USA at the time they were born
I could make a long post about history, US Law, Hawaii law etc. and point out every place that the "Obama is a foriegner" crowd has twisted the
facts or outright lied....but who cares? They don't.
This "Obama isn't a citizen" debate has never been about logic, evidence or facts.
I have researched and debated the long stream of BS on the issue for almost a year now....and my conclusion is that those that propigate this BS
quickly retreat and start over someplace else with another thread every time they are debunked.
Logic, reason and facts have NOTHING to do with it.
Hold onto that world view no matter what...don't let facts derail you...hate makes you stronger LOL
