And If you ask a Canadian if they were born in America, they would look at you funny.

Well, I guess it bears contiguity, where Hawaii is obviously discontiguous with the Americas.

I never said you said it was. If you bothered to pay attention, I quoted someone else, not you.

Yes you did. You said "So was Ted Cruz." in response to "Hawaii became a State in 1959. Barack was born in 1961. He was born in AMERICA"

I think we need a determination by the Supreme Court to define "Natural Born Citizen" and have all future presidential hopefuls vetted against this criteria.

It infuriates me that there is doubt about Obama's eligibility to be POTUS.
However, this is nothing compared to how angry I am that nobody seems to be addressing the issue from the pragmatic position of ensuring we never wind up in a position to have so many with concerns of eligibility for a sitting president.

i'm fine with that. just be prepared for it to be "citizen at birth" as opposed to "naturalized citizen".

It infuriates me that there is doubt about Obama's eligibility to be POTUS.

only for those that reject reality:
