Does Obama really meet the constitutional definition of a natural born citizen? (legal, borders)

[roysoldboy]

OMG, the birthers are at it again. I haven't seen any of these arguments yet but maybe some of you have. I do wonder how some people find all these court cases that haven't been used or questioned up to now. I guess this guy may well have studied it all too much since he lists so much in the way of references.

Of course, we all know that he has served one term so that makes him legal. Right?

Christopher Gadsden should rise up from the dead and demand his flag back.

Yes. Next question.

"Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are "natural born Citizens" for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents."

That article was painful to read. Obama was born in Honolulu. Case closed.

No person except a natural born Citizen shall be eligible to the Office of President.
or
No person except a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President.

All citizens of the US as of the adoption of the Constitution were eligible to run for POTUS. After the adoption of the Constitution, only natural born citizens are eligible.

Obama was born is Hawaii, which makes him a natural born citizen. Case closed.

Since Arpaio did not file a criminal complaint against Obama and refused to comply with subpoena and testify at trial, demand that he refund the public 7 million that he collected! | Dr. Orly Taitz, Esquire
