After Monday's signing, the certificates will be mailed to Vice President Dick Cheney as president of the Senate; the National Archives; each state's secretary of state; and the chief judge of the nearest federal court, just in case all the others are lost. That leaves two more steps in the election cycle. Mr. Cheney will open the certificates before a joint session of Congress at 1 p.m. on Jan. 6, and Mr. Obama will be sworn in at noon on Jan. 20.
And then it will be over
You will then have your much sought after answer and will then have the peace and tranquility of knowing.
LOL, I applaud you for wishful thinking, Tuby, but something tells me kootr/scootr will find neither peace nor tranquility after Monday's announcement. They will be right here, writing the same thread over and over, day in and day out for the next eight years. Sorta like nipples on men--you don't know why they're there and they seem pointless but after awhile you realize they're harmless.
Translation: "He's not a natural born citizen! He's not. Quit posting your lies! Listen to me he's not elgible to be POTUS. I have the proof. I have proof. Why aren't you listening to me!?!?! Read this and this and this!! He can't be our President, he's not elgible. LISTEN TO ME!!! Why aren't you getting this!!!! He's not, he's not, he's not,......."
Makes no difference where Obama was born. Obama is not a Natural Born Citizen due to his father not being a U.S. citizen, but a Kenyan (Brit).
What specific LAW or COURT CASE says that this is the case? If you cannot cite to the law, then you are proven to be full of hot air. As we already know is the case..
And yet the baby born today in Texas to two illegal immigrants IS a natural born U.S. citizen. How do you explain that?
No, the child would not be a natural born citizen because BOTH parents are not U.S. ciitizens. Both parents must be U.S. citizens before the child can be a NBC. Obama only had one parent that was a U.S. citizen, therefore he is not a NBC... The Constitution requires that the POTUS must be a U.S. citizen.

AGAIN, which law states this or which CASE interprets the Constitution that way?
You will not respond because you know the Constitution has never been interpreted this way. Where his tinfoil hat??

Read the case (08A469) currently before the Supreme Court. It will provide your answers.

The US code, which has been posted many times, puts no parentage requirements on people born within the US. They are all considered natural-born citizens and are eligible to be POTUS. I reapeat, this has been posted many, many times. Do a search.

This has been explained to you a million times, at least... It doesn't matter what nationality his father was. He could be a Klingon for all it matters. All that matters is that his mother was a US citizen OR he was born in the US. Either one makes him a natural born citizen. Plus there have been other Presidents with parents who were not US citizens.
The government only recognizes natural born citizens and naturalized citizens (as in someone who does not have any claim to US citizenship until applying for citizenship as an adult). There is no mythical 'not natural born but not naturalized citizen' category like you seem to think.
