Ok. Have it your way.

Wasn't Hawaii a state when Obama was born there in 1961?

That makes him natural-born. End of thread.

Default Wait a minute, Plains Radio?!!

Leo Donofrio's lawsuit is the one to be reviewed by the Supreme Court justices and it does not even address "where" Obama was born, but instead that Obama cannot possibly have "natural born citizen" status as defined by the Constitution...a requirement to hold the office of President of the United States.
Plains Radio is owned by Ed Hale, in Texas. Ed Hale was involved, with Philip J Berg and I think Jerome Corsi tangentially somehow, with African Press International, the people who claimed last October that Michelle Obama called them on the phone and ranted on for a couple of hours about her husband being treated badly by the whites. This was supposed to be the October Surprise. Fox was going to release the tapes..."any day now..." you know.

In the AfricaPress website there's a rash of squabbling and threatening between Hale and Berg, and Corsi comes in from time to time. You'd have to search; the Michelle stuff used to be right up front but is now hard to get to if you're lazy like me. They were fighting about money from Fox IIRC.

The Michelle thing and links to africanpress, when the "story" was news at City-Data: //www.city-data.com/forum/elect...goes-rant.html

Someone's observation of Ed Hale's site: The Ptarmigan Nest - Ptarmigan, the State Bird of Alaska. A peaceful little creature. » Ed Hale is a Fraud? (http://www.ptarmigannest.net/?p=612 - broken link)

Aha! Berg and Hale are both Clintonistas: McCain Targets Frustrated Clinton Supporters, as Dems Strive for Unity - FOXNews.com Transition Tracker (http://www.foxnews.com/politics/elections/2008/06/05/mccain-targets-frustrated-clinton-supporters-as-dems-strive-for-unity/ - broken link)

So now this "new" guy, Leo Donofrio, is talking on Ed Hale's radio station.

Hmmm.

Well, since JPS was starting what-if threads about the issue, I just thought I would ask.

Believe it or not, I'm not obsessed with the issue. I expect SCOTUS will not look into the matter. We all know congress won't - so that will be that.

And, actually, the phrase "natural born citizen" has never been defined in the Constitution or elsewhere and has never had a legal challenge to establish precedent and case law.

Nowhere does it say that the child of an American citizen is or is not a "natural born citizen" if the live birth takes place outside the borders of the United States.

Research before you post.

I just had to say that I can't believe that Sanrene felt the need to start yet again another thread on this. I suppose Kooter will start another one now. Gosh, we need this information since it has only been discussed about ten thousand times on this board.
I don't believe anyone has started a thread asking if it would matter to you if it turned out he was born in Kenya.

Seems people can't stay on topic and just answer the question.

I certainly hope the SCOTUS will, but it won't surprise me if they don't. If they don't many millions of people will forever believe Obama is not qualified to be POTUS under our Constitution.
