Makes Me Wonder

Birther people certainly had their day in court
I can’t even put into words how this makes me feel - but I will start with - THIS is why America is in the situation we are in. Take a POLITICALLY caused situation and turn it into a PERSONAL insult.
I believe that the Obama eligibility issue is a CONSTITUTIONAL issue. And it has been going since the SENATE did it’s little hissy fit of DEMANDING every single document concerning McAmnesty’s birth in Panama and accepting a Certification of Live Birth for The Won.
The PROBLEM with Obama is that HIS father never was, was not attempting, and never became a US Citizaen (as opposed to all the other US Presidents who were challenged on the NBC clause). The LAW in 1961 governing BHO Sr was The British Nationality Law (1948) - that said a child of a British Citizen was a British citizen NO MATTER WHERE IN THE WORLD THE CHILD WAS BORN. Kenya did not gain it’s Independence until Dec 1963. The US Law at the time(9161) said the AMERICAN CITIZEN parent could ONLY confer CITIZENSHIP upon their child with a foreign parent if they had lived in the US for 14 consecutive years PLUS an additional 5 years. Thus Stanley Ann could NOT confer citizenship (even as a US Natural born Citizen) as she was 18 years old when Obama was born. And just for jollies - the Hawaii Law at the time (1961) said ANYONE BORN ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD could be registered as BORN in Hawaii - they could just never own land in Hawaii.[Remember that HA had just become a state and many Hawaiians had been born on other Pacific Islands]
Thus, very simply BHO does NOT qualify as eligible to be President under the NBC clause of the Constitution. Thus this is a CONSTITUTIONAL issue. The Supreme Court threw Berg’s (a Democrat) lawsuit out, illegally. It is a panel of 4 who are to decide what cases are heard or not - one justice made that decision. The Senate made a show of ‘vetting’ and ‘proving’ McAmnesty was ‘eligible’ but did not do the same for a man whose KNOWN father is a foreign citizen. Many of the lower courts threw out various lawsuits similar to this and the people had neither the means nor desire to fight through to the Supreme Court. The born in the US claim (anchor baby) is a US citizen, part of the 14th Amendment, was a comment made by a Supreme Court Justice as part of another decision - the 14th Amendment segment reads
. It doesn’t mean squat, spawn and walla - a new US citizen is here.All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States
It was, is and always will be a Constitutional Issue.
And I am sadden that you use the birther insult.
Drew maybe it is all tin foil hat stuff, but in the case of Britain if you were looking for a way to destroy a culture that had evolved over a thousad years in a single generation you could not have done it better than the scum that ran Britain from 1997 to 2010. I truly believe that they have set Britain on a path to self destruction with the flood of turd world barbarians they have unleashed. When we run out of money to pay these savages their welfare it is going to get really ugly.
