Obama conspiracy theory topics please.
You might want to comment on Ron Polland’s fine job of cleaning up Stanley Ann Dunham’s birth certificate from the Strunk FOIA papers, and the “shocking revelation” that Grandma Dunham changed the spelling of her first name.
I heard that not only did Obama’s grandma change the spelling of her name but she also (and this is a bombshell!) had an in-grown toe nail removed one year before her death.
Good lord! I never bother going to Free Republic. They consider the spelling of Obama’s grandmother’s first name ‘shocking’? It isn’t uncommon for the mother’s name to be mispelled on a birth certificate. My grandmother’s name was Marjorie and on my birth certificate it is spelled Margarette.
But I’m sure this will turn into a HUGE BOMBSHELL headline on one of the birther blogs.
Oooops! Mean to write on my mothers birth certificate my grandmother’s name is spelled differently than it should be. I have a copies of my mother’s and father’s bc’s that I have kept.
No doubt it’s because of that “tribe” thing.
I hear blackity blackity black.
Wait – wasn’t Gerald Ford born Leslie King, Jr.? And wasn’t Dwight David Eisenhower’s original name David Dwight Eisenhower? And what does a GRANDMOTHER’s name have to do with where a baby was born?
They are really grasping at straws here. What a load of garbage.
The name of a high school classmate appears as “Jane” in my yearbooks. Now she spells her name “Jayne.” Clearly, she has something to hide!.
Don’t forget William Jefferson Blythe III (aka Bill Clinton).
Birthers need a new straw to grasp after Rotunda knocked them on their heels yesterday.

shocking.
my middle name is misspelled on MY birth certificate. i guess i can kiss my dreams of being president goodbye .
Hiram Ulysses Grant was born in Point Pleasant, Ohio on April 27, 1822 to Jesse Root Grant, a tanner, and Hannah Simpson Grant, both Pennsylvania natives. At the age of 17, the young Ulysses entered the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York, secured by Congressman Thomas L. Hamer’s nomination.
Hamer mistakenly nominated him as “Ulysses S. Grant of Ohio.”
At West Point he adopted this name with a middle initial only. His nickname became “Sam” among army colleagues at the academy since the initials “U.S.” stood for “Uncle Sam”.
SAD’s birth certificate? It’s the death certificate that should be of interest –along with Toot’s.
My last name is Maher and I was listed in my yearbook as Magaña.
what do you expect to find on the death certificates ?
Elvis Presley’s middle name is misspelled on his grave.
Oh you didn’t know? If there’s ever any discrepancy in either of your Grandparent’s names in any part of their lives, you are not a US citizen.
Sarah Palin goes full birther….
“Do insane people recognize they’ve lost their minds? Here’s Sarah Palin implying that we don’t know enough about “Barack Hussein Obama’s” background. …
And, yeah, holy crap. She totally went Birther. Her most obvious Palin Southern Strategy dog whistle yet. That makes two of the five (or so) Republican frontrunners to go full Birther.”

Funny thing happened the other day.
Six years ago, we had to request my daughter’s birth certificate from the NY town in which she was born so she could apply for a driver’s license. The form we received was a laminated, embossed “long form” with raised seal, etc. Very classy.
This year we had to do the same thing for the youngest child. Guess what — SHORT FORM!!!
My wife looked at this and asked, “What the Hell? Is this legal???”
After I got done laughing, I pointed out that it was in fact correct…
Ford was born Leslie King, Jr. in Omaha (I’m now sitting about 12 blocks Northwest of his birthplace as I type). His mom divorced and remarried when he was an infant, and his step-dad adopted him and changed his name.
As for Eisenhower, according to Wikipedia:
“E Glenn Harcsar

SAD’s birth certificate? It’s the death certificate that should be of interest –along with Toot’s.”
It would reveal that Obama strangled them both with his bare hands, of course. And what about those missing livers???
Has anyone looked into birther claims about Obama’s Kindergarten records? I don’t believe Doc has anything to them. Just curious if anyone has investigated what I am sure is just the latest red herring.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2592954/posts?page=103
The birthers claim the state doesn’t have the records. At first I though it pluasible that Obama simply didn’t attend Kindergarten in Hawaii, but there are credible news stories that he has. Did anyone look into this?
Because of your bizarre, morbid curiosity or are you just flinging random turdlets at the wall to see what sticks?
He IS Alive!
Um, a lot of people in the early 1960s went to private kindergartens that might or might not have forwarded records to state education authorities. I went to one in a church and very much doubt that there’s any paper record of it at all, let alone on file with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
i can’t find the specific info for hawaii but…… it seems that every state has a retention/destruction schedule for public school records. in texas for K academic records it’s 7 years after completion. but……. for retaining the birth certificate info it’s ” As long as administratively valuable”. a school could literally destroy the info the moment a student is enrolled ( atleast in texas ).
again, the birthers find conspiracy where there is standard procedure.
Yes, it is ridiculous. I know more trivia about Barack Obama than I thought I’d know about any President. I used to think that simply knowing that George W. Bush was born in Connecticut made me fairly knowledgable about pointless political trivia.
Of course, I really don’t care what religious practices Christine O’Donnell tried for ten minutes when she was twenty years old. (I do regard her attempts to defame Wiccans as an act of bigotry for which she should apologise so that we can get to the things that matter.)
Of course, I do care that Christine O’Donnell has a number of policy stances that I regard as absurd. Her view that taxes should never be increased makes her pledges to reduce the federal deficit rather unrealistic, in my humble opinion. I happen to disagree with her support for energy policy to keep prices low, as I happen to think that those who combust fossil fuels should be made to pay for the external costs that they impose. I don’t even know where to begin with her comments on healthcare.
Maybe she’ll support a national bake sale instead?
So much for the threat from my teachers about my misbehavior going on my permanent record.
I was just about to post the same thing. A few years after I graduated from college, I received a letter from my hometown’s school department notifying me that my records were going to be destroyed in accordance with state law, but they offered me the chance to receive a copy of them (I can’t remember if it was a copy or the original).
I didn’t bother getting my records. I didn’t care.
Yeah, I don’t know the law in Hawaii, but if they have a similar law, the birthers would undoubtedly claim that it was only Obama’s records that were destroyed or something like that.
Here is the latest turd from the seditious Post and Fail….The subtle racial fearmongering is pretty over the top even for them….
“Folks, we may be getting close to Civil War II”
“In preparation for his court martial, scheduled for October, his defense counsel asked the Judge Advocate General (JAG) court to authorize “discovery” of Obama’s birth records in order to prove Lakin’s innocence. Col. Lind, Presiding JAG Judge, has recently ruled that LTC Lakin can’t depose (question under oath) the Hawaiian Custodian of Birth Records, nor view any of their documents. The judge claimed that birth records might contain “embarrassing information” about the putative President. The judge further ruled that it is “irrelevant” for the military to prove that Obama is constitutionally eligible to serve as Commander-in-Chief. She said that LTC Lakin’s deployment orders came from the Pentagon and, “on its face,” that’s all he needs to know. In other words, along with her Commanding General, Col. Lind has just decided that the chain of command originates at the Pentagon, and the President is NOT an integral part of it. Both Lind and her commanding general have now violated the Constitution’s clear specification that the “President is the Commander-in-Chief.”
Col. Lind is either a disgrace to the uniform, or a coward who has just covertly handed LTC Lakin’s defense team a “home-run” issue to be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court! A lengthy but very insightful interview with a legal military justice expert explains the background and history of the Uniform Code of Military Justice and WHY we must never give Obama an opportunity to declare “martial law,” which is brutal and NOT civilized, constitutional law as we normally comprehend it.
Folks, I’m terribly concerned about the future of our Republic. It is disgraceful that nearly every member of Congress knows Obama is ineligible. What are they afraid of? Are they are all afraid to act for fear that this will cause more racial uprisings — with big cities looting and burning — as happened before, following the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rodney King events?
Attorney General Eric Holder (a demonstrated racist) was talking about our fears of honestly discussing racial issues when he asserted, “We are a nation of cowards!”
We must not let an audacious, clever, glib Marxist subvert it, nor diminish it. “Native born” (born in the land), is NOT the same as “natural born” (both parents must be U.S. citizens at the time of birth). Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 makes clear that the Founders recognized that there were various categories of “Citizens.” They decided that only “natural born” met the strict criterion of undivided allegiance needed for the President.”

The question as to why Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly, and Sean Hannity will not address this trial and judge’s ruling is the one I want answered. What power and consequences are they so afraid of that they won’t go after Obama on his eligibility? Are we so afraid of some of our own black citizens that we ignore the Constitution? Then, let the country become afraid of both black and white Americans who still adhere to it!

While I agree 100% with this article I am not so sure that elections will have any result. There will be enough of present office holders still in office who are covering now who will still be in office and continue to stonewall this issue.
The courts both civil and military continue to try and sweep this under the rug so to speak and do nothing but cover up issue.
I think in the end only armed rebellion will solve this issue, as they leave us no other choice. This issue will NOT STAND AT PRESENT SITUATION. IT WILL BE CORRECTED BY HOPEFULLY BALLOT BUT IF NOT BY BULLET. THEIR CHOICE!
What if they start an armed rebellion and no one shows up?
More hilarity from the Post and Fail…
“A Montreal-based website, MBETV, has published The Post & Email’s coverage of the Lucas Smith congressional letter campaign, translating the first several paragraphs into French and properly linking back to our original article.
The headline of the MBETV article is translated to read:
Obama born in Africa: Documents allegedly obtained in Kenya sent to each member of Congress and then has one of Lucas Smith’s videos embedded. The video was not translated into French.
The website has published a two-part article by investigative reporter Wayne Madsen which claimed that Obama might have been a CIA operative. Its “In the World” section included the article on Lucas Smith as well as a piece entitled “Anti-Terrorism: 500 New Cameras in the New York Subway.”

In 2000 and 2004, the Democratic Party of Hawaii’s official Certifications of Nomination for Al Gore and Joe Lieberman (2000) and John Kerry and John Edwards (2004) both had the following identical language:
This is to certify that the following candidates for President and Vice President of the United States are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the United States Constitution and are the duly chosen candidates of both the state and the national Democratic Parties by balloting at the Presidential Preference Poll and Caucus held _____ in the State of Hawaii and by acclamation at the National Democratic Convention held ______ in _______.
In 2008, the Democratic Party of Hawaii’s official Certification of Nomination for Barack Obama and Joe Biden carried this language:
This is to certify that the following candidates for President and Vice President of the United States are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the national Democratic Parties balloting at the Presidential Preferences Poll and Caucus held on February 19, 2008 in the State of Hawaii and by acclamation at the National Democratic Convention held August 27, 2008 in Denver, Colorado.

RE: the kindergarten records
Thanks for the replies all.
There are credible sources that he attended Kindergarten at a public school, so the private school explanation doesn’t work.
There remain two plausible hypotheses explaining allegedly missing records: 1) Hawaii doesn’t keep public school records for 40 years or 2) Birthers just made this up.
Having searched around the web for the original source of the claim that these records are supposedly missing, I couldn’t find it. All I could find were a bunch of websites asserting that these records did not exist, without presenting any evidence that someone actually asked for them and was denied.
That leads me to believe hypothesis 2 is correct: some birther just made this up, posted it on a blog somewhere, and the rest of them took his word for it. This wouldn’t be the first birther “factoid” to emerge thusly.
Can anyone track down the initial source of the missing Kindergarten records allegation? I’d be very curious to know.
Nevermind. I found the source of the rumor. It was initially published in this article for Hawaii Business:
http://www.hawaiibusiness.com/Hawaii-Business/October-2008/Being-Local-Barry-and-Bryan/
“Now, kids from Hawaii’s public schools can also claim ties to the Democratic presidential nominee. I acquired the picture below from Winifred (Wakai) Otaguro…Otaguro’s mother, Betty Wakai, had written the names of most of the kids in the class on the back of the picture. Her writing identifies the first little boy in the third row as “Barry Obama.” Obama’s sister Maya Soetoro-Ng confirms that the boy is Obama, however, the Department of Education has been unable to find his records.”
So the birthers didn’t just make this up, for a change. They simply attributed a sinister reason for why his Kindergarten records would be missing when a more mundane one, such as Hawaii not keeping student records for 40 years, is just as plausible, if not more so.
Of course, what do the birthers think might be in Obama’s kindergarten records that would bring down his Presidency?
And their misunderstanding about Hawaii’s certification process has been explained elsewhere already, but because it doesn’t lead to a TREASON conviction they ignored it.
Oh, and the birthers probably confused being told “no, you can’t have them” with “There are no records! OMG!!!1!11!!” kind of like they did with his COLB.
What we know for certain is that if Obama’s kindergarten records do exist, anyone requesting them from the Hawaii Department of Education would have to submit an authorization signed by Obama. Absent such an authorization, I seriously doubt that the DOE would respond “Sorry, those records don’t exist” even if they in fact no longer exist. They would simply deny the request with no explanation other than pointing out that the requestor didn’t submit a proper authorization.
I suspect that the “missing records” meme arises out of the oft-published list of Obama personal records which birthers claim are “missing” – the long form, elementary, high school and college records, student loan records, etc.
If Obama’s kindergarten records ever were to surface, I’m certain that some birther would bemoan the fact that “kindergarten” is a German word. Damned foreigners!
Good article in Forbes regarding the Dinesh D’Souza article last week that Gingrich had referenced in his Kenyan colonialism comments…
“About that Obama cover story in Forbes magazine:
Many staffers were dismayed to learn our pages were going to be turned over to a propagandist hack from the far-right fringe for what turned out to be a stupefyingly inane, quasi-racist bomb-toss at our president. Perhaps because the article was so utterly devoid of intellectual probity and indeed was for the most part absurd–imputing that the president, embroiled in an exceedingly difficult war abroad, is in effect on the other side–we thought and hoped this ugly unpatriotic rant wouldn’t be taken seriously or barely be noticed. Alas, it proved hard to ignore, having appeared, like bad breath and rotten teeth, in places like dentist offices across the land, as the White House noted.
Forbes.com columnist Shikha Dalmia handily rips apart the article in her recent post, pointing out that the author, whose name doesn’t deserve yet another media mention, “seems to have homesteaded the intellectual goofiness spot.”
http://blogs.forbes.com/craigsilver/2010/09/22/fallacious-malicious-and-unpatriotic/
at a quick glance i can’t find the section for school records ( and need to get back to work ) but here is the link to hawaii’s retention/disposition policy:
http://hawaii.gov/dags/archives/records-management/records-retention-and-disposition-schedules
Five year old Barack devised a plan for better healthcare for all pre-schoolers.
I once colored a squirrel purple in the first grade. The teacher, a bitter and stern person, gave me an F. Of course I cried. I showed it to my mom. She immediately went down to the elementary school and ripped the teacher a new one and then gave the principal a stern lecture about the mandatory need for pre-screening teachers of young children for sadism and stifling creativity before letting them have a daily classroom full unsupervised.
Yes. See this: http://newyorkleftist.blogspot.com/2009/06/famous-willards.html
I saw Elvis in the frozen food isle.
Only if they’re back in time for dinner.
And amputees need not apply.
Sorry, Doc. A bit off topic, but I was reading Orly Taitz’s latest word salad — her “reply” to the U.S. Attorney’s response to Taitz’s second request for reconsideration of the dismissal of her idiotic quo warranto suit — and the following caught my eye:
“Taitz was damaged and had to pay $20,000 in sanctions, after … all of her bank records were subpoenaed by the Federal government …”
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now we know what prompted the online-educated worst lawyer in the world to finally pay that sanction imposed by Judge Land: the threat of having to disclose HER PERSONAL RECORDS.
Justice can be so sweet.
I actually wrote the author of that piece to ask her where *she* got the idea that his Kindergarten records were missing, but haven’t heard back. It’d be slightly odd if she asked the Hawaii DOE herself (since it’s just an aside in an editor’s note), but there doesn’t seem to be a pre-existing published source. What we could have here is just a writer misremembering something she read or heard (like the CNN guy thinking Hawaii’s records had been destroyed).
Plus, even if the records did (do?) exist, federal privacy laws would still prohibit their public release.
If this is the biggest shocker then what is the entire article about. Names have variations in spelling, writing, and pronunciations. Could author have at least gone to their local book store and do their research in a baby names book. This would have saved them a lot of time. There is absolutely nothing revolutionary or shocking about the variation on Obama’s grandmothers name.
It is always ironic when birthers use the phrase “ignore the Constitution” as a mechanism to justify their prejudice, because that is exactly what they are doing. Well not specifically to the Constitution, but they are ignoring “the rule of law. ”
The article by Shikha Dalmia sums it up best.
Where Dinesh D’Souza fails is that he seems to start from anti-colonialism and argues from that point.
Of course not because that would actually take research. Birthers are like the Intelligent Design folks, they start with a conclusion and then try to fit all the data around the conclusion.
During the primaries, Hillary Clinton announced that in kindergarten Obama wrote an essay that he wanted to be President.
“The Clinton campaign issued a press release Sunday that included this:
In third grade, Senator Obama wrote an essay titled ‘I Want To Be a President.’ His third grade teacher: Fermina Katarina Sinaga “asked her class to write an essay titled ‘My dream: What I want to be in the future.’ Senator Obama wrote ‘I want to be a President,’ she said.” [The Los Angeles Times, 3/15/07]
In kindergarten, Senator Obama wrote an essay titled ‘I Want to Become President.’ “Iis Darmawan, 63, Senator Obama’s kindergarten teacher, remembers him as an exceptionally tall and curly haired child who quickly picked up the local language and had sharp math skills. He wrote an essay titled, ‘I Want To Become President,’ the teacher said.” [AP, 1/25/07 ]
Yes, you can believe your eyes. The Clinton people are citing a kindergarten essay by Obama as evidence against him in a presidential campaign. Good thing he was born before widespread pre-natal ultrasounds. Who knows how they might’ve used that against him? ”
http://www.swamppolitics.com/news/politics/blog/2007/12/the_clinton_pot_calls_the_obam.html
And this:
“Then there was the Hillary campaign press release attacking Obama for saying he hadn’t spent his whole life planning to run for president (unlike some other candidates). No! Das Hillary Apparat unearthed one Iis Darmawan, 63, “Senator Obama’s kindergarten teacher [in Indonesia].” She recalled that little Barack had written an essay in kindergarten, “I Want to Become President.” Gotcha!”

I miss the Presidential Primaries that was a fun time.
But, if he was in kindergarten in Indonesia, why would Hawaii have the records?
Was he shopping or lying in the cold case?

Thanks, Charo.
What kind of records would someone expect to find on a 5 year old kindergartener back in ’66? How is this relevant to anything?
Obama was studying Russian, so he could read the Communist Manifesto. At 5, he knew he was a prodigy.
Silly you. Also at 5, Obama was training animals: http://www.newyorkleftist.blogspot.com/
I’m bored. Anyone wanna play a game? Stake out a birther site, create a birther ID to use, post the usual birther inanities for a while so they take you in as one of their own, then start a ridiculous new rumor. I’m just curious to see if we can get them believing and then spreading as fact whatever we make up.
I’m also trying to remeber whether Obama actually being an Ethiopian Jew and a Mossad plant is something I made up or not.
It’s true. I first saw it planned when I was in Israel. How did you find out?
That seems like something you’ve got to remember if you’re going to play your game… 😉 Maybe Doc C can start a competition to see who can seed the most outlandish birther theory…
There’s nothing outlandish. It’s true. Obama’s father was really an Ethiopian Jew.
You know I originally thought this would be a fun idea. But the more I think of it the more I realize even if you came out and admitted that you made stuff up they would still continue to pass it off as if it was true. Just look at that April Fools day joke article saying Obama was a fulbright scholar and that he went to school as a foreign student. Even though its not true and was an april fools joke, people still use it to try to justify wanting every one of his school records.
Because they’re the kind of folks who believe that blacks are stupider than white, Mexicans are lazy, gays are evil, etc. etc.
I’ll grant you that not all American conservatives are racists, but all racists are certainly conservatives.
—
However, satire and conspiracy theories are different things. I have to agree that these conspiracy theorist have made it hard to make criticism through satire. If it wasn’t for the lawsuits, billboards and other birther nuttiness I would laugh at the various articles about Obama’s citizenship. The absurdity of some make you seriously wonder if they aren’t meant as satire.
I feel that no matter what happens or published birthers will distort it for their own goals. They have distorted the usage of the word “embarrassment” in a court ruling to further their arguments.
There is no humor with birthers, the desire to educate others, or to give an honest opinion. They are only concerned with their perversion that Obama’s can’t be a natural born citizen.
Well, I wrote to her through her Facebook profile, so that shouldn’t be a problem.
Why do you think she’s not answering? A respected editor makes up a sudden fact and doesn’t want to be forthcoming? Is she a birther, a liar or a sloppy reporter or a combination? She stepped down from her editorial position before November 5 (the date of the blurb I linked) and the article in which she spoke of kindergarten records was in October of 2008.
I haven’t looked at any past issues to see if this was a planned departure but you can see how a conspiracy might develop around these couple of facts.
You know to go to World Net Daily for your answers:
Obama kindergarten records
The Maui News reported that Obama attended kindergarten at Noelani Elementary School on Oahu during the school year 1966-67. It released a photo of two teachers, Katherine Nakamoto and Aimee Yatsushiro, with five students. The teachers claim one of the children is Barack Obama.
According to the Hawaii Department of Education, students must submit a birth certificate to register. Parents may bring a passport or student visa if the child is from a foreign country.
So far, no records have been released by the school. Noelani Elementary School officials have not responded to WND’s request for comment.
http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=100613
One of the mechanisms used by those who are doing well to avoid guilt over the abject disadvantages of others, is to assume that they are in someway superior in intelligence or character, which justifies their position. When the privileged become anxious about the security of their position, they seek a scapegoat among the powerless. So it has been since the foundation of civilization.
The school has not responded to WND, because there is a suspicion that barnyard animals become skittish when Joseph Farah is near.
He has never denied this, and refuses to respond to written enquiries.
All he has to do is release his criminal record abstract stamped “SUBJECT HAS CLEAR RECORD TO DATE,” and this will be over tonight.
That is true; however the tea baggers are often just as poor and disadvantaged as those they hate. I’m reminded of the Russian ” mujiks” who when things were bad under the Tsars were conveniently stirred up to start a pogrom against the Jews, etc. Instead of being angry at the aristocracy, their anger was redirected towards ” the other”.
Well, it was only earlier this week that I wrote her. Maybe she doesn’t have e-mail alerts and doesn’t log into Facebook every day. Maybe she’s just procrastinating. Maybe she just saw a strange message and dismissed it as spam. Maybe she did read it, and doesn’t want to get involved with a Birther-related debate. Heck, maybe she’s just embarrassed.
I am, after all, just some stranger writing her about a passing comment in a random short piece she wrote two years ago. I wouldn’t expect to be high on her list of priorities.
Still, if time goes by and I don’t hear back, I figure I’ll try again.
OT: Jews for Cheeses.
I couldn’t agree more.
I’ve done this on YouTube comments. The great thing is, they never question the rumor. I said Michelle Obama changed her identity and there is no record of her before 1982. That and Barack Obama is gay.
It may be this pesky Hawaii Board of Education Policy that prevents any disclosure:
It should also be noted that any records that might be retained for this long would probably be kept (off-site?) by the local school or district and not the DOE. Having spent time in student records, I find this whole issue rather silly. Any BC the school may have kept when he was there would probably have been a simple copy for their records and not the certified copy.

Hahahaha jesus give it up sam. There is no difference between filed and accepted in the state of Hawaii. Some states say different things but in Hawaii being filed is it being accepted. Get a new hobby
Sam: I completely agree with you! Good catch! I found a Kenya BC (Obama’s?), which may help you that’s right here!
You know the birthers are desperate when the man with the steady drip decides to leave his world of moderated birther blogs in order to rehash his same discredited nonsense….Sam, give it up. You and your blog are a joke. Here people will challenge your nonsense.
[Moved to the Open Thread, Doc]
Sam, really, not the old Date Filed v Date Accepted thing again. That’s really an antique and I would have thought long past its expiration date. I wrote about it a year and a half ago! And again in June of 2009.
Quite a lot can be said about how totally silly the filed v accepted argument is, but there are two things so basic that it makes me wonder how the myth stays alive:
1) States only issue certified copies of records that they accept. The COLB proves Obama’s birth registration was accepted.
2) A 1961 Hawaii long form does not have a “Date Filed” on it, only two boxes for “Date accepted”. Therefore the COLB, which is an abstract of the long form, must show a date accepted, because that is all there is.
State Department of Health spokesperson Janice Okubo has stated that they use different terms in different eras. Sewell’s article says “Hawaii is covering this up for political reasons to protect Obama. Only they know the ultimate reasons they are all willing to commit Misprision of Felony at this point in time given the mounting evidence that Obama was not physically born in Hawaii.” That’s right Sam, everybody is in on the conspiracy and everybody is lying. Don’t worry. It will be all right. Relax and take your meds.
if you’re not going to take them can i have them ?
Thanks for posting this, Sam. Not that it helps your previously discredited point, but it helps with yet another discredited birther point. You know how many birthers have said that Obama’s father’s race being listed as “African” shows the COLB is a fake? And how they ignore the fact that the parents were allowed to fill that information in with whatever they wanted? Well, unless “Japanese” has become a race, I’d say this is supporting evidence for the fact that there’s no problem with the listing of African as a race on the COLB.
Christ Jesus, would you cut it out? You’re wrong, you’ve always been wrong, and there’s no sign that any of this will change. Get a life, for God’s sake, and leave the rest of us alone!
I write one sentence and post one link. I get 19 hits on my site and 584 words of comment from 6 posters.

This was posted on Politicalforum.com and I wanted to repost it here, along with my comments:
BY LINDA BENTLEY – CAVE CREEK – Glen Fairclough, a reader from Salt Lake City, Utah, sent us an e-mail last week to express his gratitude for publishing the recent article regarding President Obama’s Kenyan birth certificate.
And, while going through digital images online of his hometown newspaper, the Deseret News and Telegram, Fairclough forwarded us a United Press wire article from the Oct. 2, 1952 edition he thought we would find interesting.
The article appeared on page 6A with a dateline of Sherman, Texas. It was headlined: “General’s birth certificate officially filed,” and stated, “A certificate recording Dwight Eisenhower’s birth in Denison on Oct. 14, 1890, was filed Wednesday [Oct. 1, 1952] in the Grayson County Clerk’s office.
“Nobody had bothered to make out a certificate when the Republican presidential candidate was born in a house at the corner of Lamar and Day streets in nearby Denison.
“A copy of the certificate filed Wednesday was mailed to Mrs. Eisenhower in Denver. Eisenhower’s older brother, Arthur, signed the certificate. It was also signed by the Grayson County Judge J.N. Dickson and recorded by County Clerk J.C. Buchanan.”
David Dwight Eisenhower was the third of seven boys born to David Jacob and Ida Elizabeth.
Since he was called Dwight while growing up, Eisenhower swapped his first and middle names when he enrolled at West Point Military Academy.
Elected 34th president of the United States in November 1952, Eisenhower made it through his first 62 years without any need for a birth certificate.
However, the need arose when he became a presidential candidate. Since Eisenhower was the oldest man to be elected president since James Buchanan over 100 years earlier, age was obviously not at issue. Instead, there was protocol in place for presidential candidates to provide proof of eligibility to appear on the ballot.
Eisenhower, whose campaign slogan: “I like Ike” became the most famous in campaign history, won by a landslide with Richard Nixon as his running mate. …continued here; http://www.sonorannews.com/archives/…tpage_Ike.html

My comments:
Thank you so much Naturalborn. This is the best evidence yet against the Birther fictions.
What you say? This shows that someone asked for Ike’s birth certificate. While this is true, this article destroys any birther rational for needing Obama’s “certified copy of an original, typed, vault copy, long-form, birth certificate, signed by his mother and delivering doctor with the name of the hospital thereon”
Lets review the article shall we?
Ike’s birth certificate was issued 60 years after his birth- based solely upon the attestation of his older brother- who was not quite 4 years old when Ike was born. I would say its unlikely Arthur saw Ike being born, so this BC was relying upon 60 year second hand memories of a 4 year old. I do not say that this makes Ike’s BC illegitimate; quite the contrary, I point out that this is all that Texas required, and they issued a birth certificate based upon that information.
You said: Obama has NOT provided a certified copy of an original, typed, vault copy, long-form, birth certificate, signed by his mother and delivering doctor with the name of the hospital thereon, to be used to conclusively prove one of the two key elements used in determining his “natural born” citizenship status per the U.S. Constitution, i.e., where he was born.
I say- neither did Ike. And yet this was good enough for the state of Texas, and for whatever ‘protocol’ had to be followed.
Birthers like to play ‘what if’ as in- what if his granny claimed he was born at home and lied to get Obama a Hawaii BC. Since Ike was indeed born at home, and his BC was issued 60 years later based upon a second hand witness, I would say any BC attested to by his Grandmother would be more valid than one signed 60 years later by someone who didn’t even see the birth.
Natural Born said before: “All he has provided to the electorate and public to see is a digital image on the internet of a purported copy of a short, summary, computer printed form called a Certification of Live Birth, aka COLB, which is not a Birth Certificate. ”
Ike never provided any BC to the electorate or the public.
Natural Born again: “No one in any controlling legal authority and official expert capacity has ever been allowed to examine the purported computer made paper document displayed in the digital images and digital pictures on the internet.”
And there is no evidence that anyone with ‘controlling legal authority’ examined Ike’s either. There is only a passing reference that there was a protocol that required it- but no mention of whether it was ever provided, or ever examined.
But finally- what I love about this article is how it destroys the ‘two citizen parent’ fiction.
Quoting the article “However, the need arose when he became a presidential candidate. Since Eisenhower was the oldest man to be elected president since James Buchanan over 100 years earlier, age was obviously not at issue. Instead, there was protocol in place for presidential candidates to provide proof of eligibility to appear on the ballot.
And that proof? Proof of where he was born. They didn’t ask for proof that Eisenhower’s parents were citizens. I repeat- They wanted to make sure Ike was old enough, and was born in the U.S- but didn’t ask for proof his parents were citizens when he was born.
This is a great article. I intend to refer to it every time Birthers bring up the nonsense about how Grannie could have forged Obama’s BC. No one accused Ike’s brother of possible forgery- probably because as a private- and living citizen- he could have sued for libel.
Birthers love to slander the dead because they can’t sue.
Make that 20. I don’t think the book “the Art of War” mentions retrying a strategy for two years that the same effect of failure.
And since we know that DDE held dual citizenship at birth (German through his Grandfather, I believe) it is even more damning.

I guess you missed the three articles that were “Most Popular” on Pravda for more than a week. The article was also translated and published in Norway and Spain.
Another one is coming out next week.
And thank you for putting me on your “bad boy” List. I man’s character can be determined by his enemies. I am proud to have you as a adversary.
Here is a compelling opinion piece from The Economist on the folly of “constitutional idolatry.” Although the author focuses on the foolishness of tea-baggers, I thought it would be appropriate article to link here, since birthers are forever misusing the very document they claim to revere.

Well if you only got 19 hits from my site out of the 22,000 weekly visitors, I would consider that a pretty poor showing.
Not sure what you your number is, files referenced, pages served or distinct hosts visited. So far in 2010, my site has served 3,129,986 pages. If you’re just counting requests, the number is much larger.
Actually I did see your claim that your three articles were “Most Popular” on Pravda, but numbers don’t mean much without context, and I wasn’t interested enough to try to find one.
I’ve had you on my blog list since about when I started, so that’s 2008 or early 2009. The “Good, Bad, Ugly” category is new. Anyone who intentionally spreads misinformation is naturally my ideological adversary. However, you weren’t worth mentioning until you got those articles displayed on the tabloid Pravda.ru. Why don’t you try for the Globe Magazine? You might even make “Ugly” then.
Wow Pravda a site known for its misinformation and fabricated stories. Did the National Enquirer turn you down because they thought you were just too unethical for them? Please let us know when you can actually provide proof of your claims.
I must admit that I had to fire some brain cells that have not been activated in a very long time when I came across that word in the article “prelapsarian.”
I was thinking that your activity may be even higher. I, for one, generally do my reading of your articles and comments through Google Reader (especially useful on a mobile device). I often do not hit the regular site unless I am commenting or attempting to pick up missed comments in a thread (the feed sometimes missing those, usually owing to rather heavy activity). I am not sure how news readers appear in your stats.
“Prelapsarian” . . . yeah, that’s a head-scratcher. I took it as a way to describe the difference between our own age — in which we have supposedly “lapsed” in our understanding and application of the Constitution — and an earlier golden age of constitutional perfection.
My favorite thought from the piece: “When history is turned into scripture and men into deities, truth is the victim.”
I knew the word; I just had to think a bit to remember. It refers to the Garden of Eden before the fall (lapse) of Adam and Eve. It’s similar to “antediluvian”, meaning, before Noah’s flood (deluge).
.
Has anyone ever made a definative list of what Presidents and Vice-Presidents were born dual citizens? I have heard Eisenhower, Agnew and Chester Arthur. What about Andrew Johnson? Wikipedia says it unclear if his father was born in England or not. If he was, then his son would have been a British subject under 7 Anne, ch. 5, Sec. 3 I would think. If born in England, was he ever naturalized? What about James Buchanan. His father was born in Ireland I believe. Not sure there is evidence he was ever naturalized. Were persons born in Ireland in the 18th century British Natural Born Subjects? If so, then wouldn’t his son also have been a British subject at birth pursuant to 7 Anne, ch. 5, Sec, 3. What about Woodrow Wilson whose grandfather I think was born in Ireland? Again, if he was a natural born subject at birth, wouldn’t his grandson be a British subject by application of 13 Geo. 3, c. 21? Also, I think Wilson’s mother was born in England. Didn’t England at some point pass citizenship down through the materal line as well as the paternal line? Do we know if anyone has looked at these issues?
Interesting discourse over at the military law and justice blog….You have the usual birther cast of characters….”Racer Jim, Pixel Patriot, Thinkwell, and E Publis Goat/Mountain Goat/etc”, all non-lawyers arguing with Mr. Sullivan, a military lawyer using the flawed Kerchner’s logic as their proof. You can’t make this stuff up…And when Sullivan points out to them the flaws in Kerchner’s logic, they go crying back to Kerchner…

Hello Commander,
There is an Obot named Dwight Sullivan who is posting lies about you on this website:
http://court-martial-ucmj.com/ltc-lakin-trial/comment-page-2/#comment-1222
“I note that at the link below, one CDR Charles F. Kerchner, Jr. (Retired) makes the same mistake as thinkwell,’ above, in characterizing Hamilton’s purported language as the first draft of the Constitution.’”
You might want to set him straight personally.
Both Bushes were Saudi citizens. Jr called Prince Bandar, the Saudi Ambassador to the US, his brother, so there can be no doubt about this fact. Oil prices hit new highs during both Bush presidencies, which benefitted the Saudis and hurt average Americans.
Also Ronald “Dutch” Reagan was a dual citizen of the US and the Netherlands, as his name proves. Martin van Buren, who grew up speaking Dutch, was as well. After all, real Americans speak only English, or perhaps Murrican.
Mountain Goat/E Publius Goat are names used by Charles Kerchner.
Obama’s father was actually an Ethiopian Jew. I came across this, when I worked for the Mossad, and later the Shin Bet.
Also, Bubbles the chimp is the power behind the throne:

The list I’ve made was mainly based upon the fact that France gave the descendents of Huguenots in the new world were given French Citizenship. That includes Ulysseus S. Grant, Theodore Roosevelt, William Howard Taft, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Harry S. Truman, Lyndon Baynes Johnson, and Leslie Lynch King (aka Gerald R. Ford).
I’m not sure this theory adds up. The Communist Manifesto was written in German.
Thanks…I had forgotton about that….Why do I get the feeling that the birther world is really a core group of about 20 people with multiple online personas to make people think that their numbers are larger than they really are?
I see Obama’s Chicago thugs have gotten to you, too.
Good article about the return of the so called “southern strategy”….
“Congratulations to Fox News and the Republicans for their successful ACORN-like race baiting over the Department of Justice. Instead of questionable videos, Fox is now touting the equally flimsy accusations of conservative activists that the Department of Justice’s decision to drop a case against a few members of the New Black Panther Party signifies a reverse racism at the DOJ that tolerates voter intimidation from African Americans. Even though the New Black Panthers in question were at a heavily black voting precinct and not a single voter – white or black – has turned up to complain about intimidation. Fox News has also suggested that the DOJ has emboldened scary black men to descend on polling places all over the country, threatening law-abiding, white (Republican) citizens. Thanks to all the relentless Fox News and other right-wing attention, the Washington Post, just as with ACORN, has now jumped in with mea culpas for not covering the story sooner. Instead of a real analysis of the validity of the accusations, WaPo showcased the right’s accusations, also as they did with ACORN.
……………
The Main Justice website, which covers news about the U.S. Department of Justice, has reported extensively about the New Black Panther case and the role of right-wing politicization. Their excellent overview of the case, written last December, is just one of their many articles on the subject. Now, in its latest, Mary Jacoby, Main Justice’s editor and founder, has a great analysis of the partisan maneuvers of the Bush appointees in the DOJ. She writes, “Using this isolated incident in Philly involving two yahoos to paint the entire Obama administration as reverse racists resembles a modern-day version of the GOP’s well known ‘Southern strategy’ playbook, in which Republicans fanned racial fears in the South to win white votes.”

Oh, I’m almost certain that Naturalized Citizen aka NC1 either is Orly Taitz or is a close associate of Orly Taitz. And Sam Sewall has at least one other handle.
Sewell posts under Aristotle the Hun.
I’m pretty he has at least one more, based on writing style. There was also some guy over at the Washington Independent who had at least two dozen handles, all of which uprated and complimented each other. Most peculiar.
Oh there are a scad of Birfer sock puppets all over. As an example, one of my current pastimes is slapping Birfers around over at GretaWire.
One of the more irritating users is named Logia, whose M.O. is to post ALLLLLLL of Mad Ole Orly’s insane rtants as received gospel.
These are then supported in the classic Birfoon manner by posting a link to another 6 posts in a row thread alos by Logia.
After checking it is now obvious that “Logia” is also Orlys personal sycophant “Veritas”
Once pulled on this, Logia has created another account “e.scott” to support “Logia’s” posts.
Once he/she/it gets pulled on this, it wil be a “rinse and repeat”
Bovril, I noticed that also over at gretawire….Logia believes that Orly walks on water….
New Obama conspiracy theory: when Obama gives speeches, he hypnotizes people to make them his willing slaves. What makes this theory remarkable is the source — it was published by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons. Who, you ask? Well, the Republican candidate for Senator from Kentucky is Rand Paul, whose day job is ophthamologist, but he doesn’t belong to the AMA, because it’s too left-wing (?!). Instead, he belongs to the little known AAPS, which has over the years published a variety of crackpotted pseudoscience. The story is at the Louisville KY Courier-Journal (with a very big h/t to wonkette). One of many crazy papers published by AAPS claims that Obama is using “covert hypnosis”:
Now you know the reason behind the evisceration of the American education system. So that the uneducated masses can actually be tricked into believing this tripe. In other words, it’s just Murdoch doing what any good capitalist should do: building a market for his product.
I wish he’d make the Republicans in Congress cluck like chickens.
Sorry, but I first saw the ‘Obama uses his speeches to hypnotize people’ meme at TexasDarlin’s blog before the 2008 election. Typical for the birthers – why make something new up when you can just reuse an old conspiracy…
See also:
http://www.obamaconspiracy.org/2009/01/barack-obama-won-the-presidency-through-hypnosis/
The Courier-Journal article says (and perhaps I should have mentioned) that the AAPS published the hypnosis paper in October 2008. The OCT blog post above links to an article at oilforimmigration (aka The Betrayal) posted in November 2008. Note that the quotes that the Courier-Journal takes from the AAPS paper appear verbatim in the post from oilforimmigration. In other words, although oilforimmigration does not give any source for this story, it appears to have been cut and pasted from the AAPS paper.
So I must retract my statement that this is a new conspiracy theory — but what is news (to me at least) is that this particular conspiracy theory actually had its origin at a “medical association” that Rand Paul belongs to.
Dr. Rand Paul is certified by the organization that he, himself, founded, the National Board of Ophthalmology. It is still run by the Paul family. http://dyn.politico.com/printstory.cfm?uuid=3948ABEE-18FE-70B2-A8018AF32306D417

Unfortunately, we haven’t heard the last of her as long as birthers keep hitting her PayPal button. Although why any Illinois attorney would want to help her is beyond me, since she has zero chance of prevailing on appeal.
NC1 is either Serbian or Romanian, and may be the missling link between Orly and Jonathan Levy.
Orly is the missing link in evolution.
Can someone point me in the right direction? I know that the State Department in one of the law suits confirmed that they had no information that President Obama was ever an Indonesian Citizen-
could you show me where? I would like the information to throw at some birthers.
New eligibility case (sort of)!
There is a new New Jersey pro se case against the health care act, but not letting anything go to waste, count six is an eligibility argument. It is fully Vattel with a request for Judicial Notice on the multiple SSNs (no, Orly is not in this one, yet).
I have not read through the entire thing yet, but I did notice briefly an argument that the “tanning salon” tax breaks the equal protections clause since African Americans would not use a tanning salon (sorry, not OT for eligibility)

Examiner dot com has an article about this but I am not adding the link so as to not fall into the spam block.
I thought it was on this site somewhere.
Actually the Department of state denied that Obama was a citizen of Indonesia and denied that he was adopted by Lolo Soetoro. This was in their response in Strunk v. State
Article: http://www.obamaconspiracy.org/2009/04/department-of-state-denies-birther-allegations/
See, I was right. Thanks, Doc.
Some of their points are actually interesting, and I can see some of them as useful points to argue in court. I fully expect them to lose, but it could be interesting to look at some of the arguments on their merits.
Their birther arguments are insanely frivolous of course and will be thrown out. I don’t get the part about ‘gutting’ a housing bill and filling the empty shell with the health bill. Isn’t that just an internal index number issue?
I also don’t get the constant reference to the Constitution as a ‘contract’. Please tell me this isn’t the ‘commercial/admiralty law’ wing-nuts trying this stuff on. Because that would mean we’ll never get to see any of them get plucked in court.
James O’Keefe is back in the news….

“Lusby, Maryland (CNN) — A conservative activist known for making undercover videos plotted to embarrass a CNN correspondent by recording a meeting on hidden cameras aboard a floating “palace of pleasure” and making sexually suggestive comments, e-mails and a planning document show.
James O’Keefe, best known for hitting the community organizing group ACORN with an undercover video sting, hoped to get CNN Investigative Correspondent Abbie Boudreau onto a boat filled with sexually explicit props and then record the session, those documents show.
The plan apparently was thwarted after Boudreau was warned minutes before it was supposed to happen. ”
Let me say first that I’m not a lawyer. A complaint includes a list of allegations, and the answer is required to either admit or deny each allegation. A denial is not necessarily a statement that you know the allegation is false — it is a statement that you do not know that it is true.
That is, the defendants here are not making the statement that the President was not an Indonesian citizen — they are making the statement that they do not know that he was.
I am also not a lawyer, but wouldn’t the State Department be in a position to know if President Obama renounced or otherwise lost his US citizenship? Logically, their denial of statements which, if true, they would be able to verify does imply that they are effectively claiming that the statements are false.
Given that you admit up front that you don’t know what you are talking about, why did you say anything? If you had any respect for the truth or for this community you would have done some research and cited authority, or kept silent.
Now for the benefit of the community, I offer this citation from West’s Law Encyclopedia proving that David indeed does not know what he is talking about:
Am I the only person sick of the birthers’ abuse of the pharse “we the people”?
Besides being an admission of lack of standing, I just wonder how died an appointed them spokespeople for the entire country…particularly since it was rather quite a few of “we the people” who elected this president that they are gonig to great lenghts to undermine.
Ooooh, even the most cursory of checks on Purpura turns up a swathe of lawsuits he seems to enjoy filing, going back at least to 1997 and earlier.

CHICAGO (WLS) – Attorney Burt Odelson, a noted elction-law expert, is predicting Rahm Emanuel will be ineligible for mayor because he is not a legal resident of Chicago.
Odelson told Roe and Roeper on WLS Radio that when Emanuel leased out his Chicago home he could no longer claim he is a resident.
“He rented his house out in Sept 09 and has not been back since and has no residency in Chicago,” Odelson said.
Ha ha ha!
http://news.medill.northwestern.edu/chicago/news.aspx?id=169748
All Emanuel wants to do is come ‘home’ and run for mayor
by Courtney Subramanian
Sep 29, 2010
First, he finds out that the people he rented his home to won’t vacate so he can come home to run for mayor. Now it turns out that state law requires mayoral candidates to have lived in Chicago for a year before the election.
Sometimes, it’s not easy being Rahm Emanuel.
Local experts are disputing Emanuel’s eligibility to run for mayor. Some say the state law is crystal clear and bars his candidacy. Others maintain it’s no big deal.
Whatever your opinion, this much is plain: Under Illinois election law, a candidate must reside in the city he or she is running for office at least one year prior to the election, which means Emanuel would have to have resided in Chicago since Feb. 22 of this year.
The glitch, of course, is that he was busy on that day, and a year before and almost a year since, being chief of staff to President Barack Obama, in far-off Washington, D.C.
Emanuel owns a home at 4228 N. Hermitage, which he leased to a family in 2009. The family declined Emanuel’s request to terminate the lease, preventing him from moving back in.
Does this mean Chicago will have its first homeless mayoral candidate?
One prominent election law expert, attorney Burt Odelson, who has ties with House Speaker Michael Madigan and two potential Emanuel rivals in the mayor’s race, state Sen. James Meeks and Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart, said Wednesday that the law clearly prohibits Emanuel from running for mayor.
Odelson noted that a section of the statute in the Illinois election code allows individuals who are in service to the U.S. to keep their residency status, but only for voting purposes.
“Even if Mr. Emanuel could make a claim that he’s in service of the U.S. and still vote absentee, he cannot make the claim he has been a resident of the city of Chicago for one year prior to the election because he leased his house to a family,” Odelson said.
James Nally, a lawyer also specializing in election law, agreed Emanuel’s status is questionable and said this will be a critical issue if Emanuel files nomination papers.
Illinois law in terms of residency includes not only a person’s intent of residency but also a physical presence, Nally said.
“Physical presence is very important,” Nally said. “The statute asks, ‘Were you residing in that municipality a year prior to election?’ That’s a pretty straight-up fact question.”
However, Jim Allen, a spokesman for the Chicago Board of Elections, said that if someone is taking a federal government assignment and maintains a residence and voter registration, it would appear that person would be qualified.
Odelson disputed Allen’s position, saying any pronouncements from the Board of Elections regarding Emanuel’s residential eligibility are premature at best.
“It would be improper for them to make a predetermination in regards to his qualifications until an objection is filed and the case is argued before them.”
Another election law expert sees the case from yet another perspective.
Former Chairman of the Illinois State Board of Elections, Dr. Ron Michaelson, said residency is largely a matter of intent. The argument involves a lot of subjectivity, Michaelson said, and can be disputed from either side.
“Intent goes a long way in determining where one’s residency actually is,” he said.
Michaelson also noted that in these types of residency laws, the benefit of the doubt is usually given to the individual claiming intent.
“I think potential objectors to Rahm Emanuel’s candidacy, at the basis of residency, are going to be swimming upstream. It will be a tough issue to prevail,” he said.
However, the issue remains contingent on Emanuel filing a petition to run for mayor, which is due Nov. 22.
If no one files an objection to Emanuel’s residency before Nov. 30, his question of residency is dismissed and his name will remain on the election ballot.
Nally, who has represented candidates on ballot requirement issues, said, “This is a real issue. This is not something that is just some minor technicality. If nomination papers are filed, I would be certain an objection will be filed as well.”
Dick Cheney was CEO of Haliburton and worked at their headquarters in Houston, Texas and lived in Houston. Magically, when he was running for VP, he became a resident of Wyoming, a place where he hadn’t lived since he was a young man. Had he been a Texas resident, Texas electors would have been barred from voting for both him and Bush, and thus we would have had Vice President Joe Lieberman (or President Gore).
If you’re going to be a stickler for rules, then you can’t pick and choose.
I don’t know why anyone who lives outside of Illinois would care about who the mayor of Chicago is. It certainly isn’t something that keeps me awake at night, but your mileage may vary.
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal al-Saud of Saudi Arabia and a devout Muslim, through his Kingdom Holding Company, owns 7% of News Corporation’s shares, making Kingdom Holdings the second largest shareholder of News Corporation which owns Fox News.
Bin Talal is the main contributor to the efforts to construct the controversial Islamic mosque near ground zero.
News Corp. is the same corporation that currently employs not one, not two, not three, but FOUR of the GOP’s top 2012 possible presidential hopefuls, Palin, Huckabee, Gingrich, and Santorum.
Conflicts of interest?
A person can only have one domicile. If that house, or where his wife and family are living is his domicile, then he meets the requirement.
I’m sure his lawyers told him he is eligible to run.
Are you referring to Emanuel or Cheney? Anyway, Misha, in all honesty, the average person doesn’t give a rat’s behind about these fine legal points. It’s a matter for the person’s opponents and if they choose to ignore it, that’s where the matter ends. The average Joe only wants to know what the candidate will do for him.
That goes for Presidents as well. The onus is on the opponents to bring it up eligibility during the campaign. Schleppers like Orly, Berg, Sven, Lakin, etc. trying to make a big deal after the fact are irrelevant. To give a baseball analogy, if they call Jeter out at 1st and Joe Girardi doesn’t argue, what difference does it make what some fan in the bleachers thinks?

Actually not true in US law.
As an example there are probably a million retiree “snow birds” who live North in summer and migrate to their homes in Florida each winter.
So long as they can demonstrate they are living and not simply visiting the property they are living in, they are residents in that location and that is theirdomicile.
For the purposes of registering to vote they only officially get to chose one location however.
As an example here are the ATF rules on firearms purchasing….they take residency VERY seriously….8-)
[18 U.S.C. 922(a)(4) and 922(e), 27 CFR 478.28 and 478.31]
Q: What constitutes residency in a State?
The State of residence is the State in which an individual is present; the individual also must have an intention of making a home in that State. A member of the Armed Forces on active duty is a resident of the State in which his or her permanent duty station is located. If a member of the Armed Forces maintains a home in one State and the member’s permanent duty station is in a nearby State to which he or she commutes each day, then the member has two States of residence and may purchase a firearm in either the State where the duty station is located or the State where the home is maintained. An alien who is legally in the United States is considered to be a resident of a State only if the alien is residing in that State and has resided in that State continuously for a period of at least 90 days prior to the date of sale of the firearm. See also Item 5, “Sales to Aliens in the United States,” in the General Information section of this publication.
[18 U.S.C. 921(b), 922(a) (3), and 922(b)(3), 27 CFR 478.11]
Q: May a person (who is not an alien) who resides in one State and owns property in another State purchase a handgun in either State?
If a person maintains a home in 2 States and resides in both States for certain periods of the year, he or she may, during the period of time the person actually resides in a particular State, purchase a handgun in that State. However, simply owning property in another State does not qualify the person to purchase a handgun in that State.
[27 CFR 478.11]
I think we can all agree Soebarkah was a native-born American. Our divergence begins when we begin to discuss the meaning of a Natural born citizen.
I believe Obama is a native-born American who voluntarily requested and received a Certificate of Loss of Nationality during his lifetime. Consequently, he forfeited his Natural born citizenship status the moment the SoS signed his CLN. His native born status will be held in perpetuity, while his Natural born status has been termininated.
They love Rahm so much, they gave him a dead fish as a goodbye gift. Ha Ha Ha.
And since native born = natural born. You also believe that at birth, he was eligible to be President, the same as the Founders did.
James Kent, “As the President is required to be a native citizen of the United States” (Commentaries on American Law, 1826).
James Kent was appointed by John Jay to the New York Chancery.
St. George Tucker, “That provision in the constitution which requires that the president shall be a native-born citizen (unless he were a citizen of the United States when the constitution was adopted,) is a happy means of security against foreign influence, which, wherever it is capable of being exerted, is to be dreaded more than the plague.” (View of the Constitution, 1803).
St. George Tucker was a Revolutionary War hero, wounded at the battle of Yorktown. He was appointed by President Madison to United States District Court judge.
Williams Rawle, “Therefore every person born within the United States, its territories or districts, whether the parents are citizens or aliens, is a natural born citizen in the sense of the Constitution, and entitled to all the rights and privileges appertaining to that capacity.” (View of the Constitution of the United States of America, 1829).
Rawle was appointed by President Washington to be the United States District Attorney for Pennsylvania.
James Iredell, “No man but a native, or who has resided fourteen years in America, can be chosen President.” North Carolina Debate on the Constitution, July, 1788
James Iredell was nominated to the Supreme Court by President Washington.
Be sure to let us know as soon as you come up with a copy of that CLN.
Sven,
As already mentioned by gorefan (as well as numerous times on this site), the terms native born and natural born have been used interchangeably constantly in American law, so there is no distinction between the two. I realize that our country’s ways are strange to you, so I’ll give you a slight pass on not understanding how our laws work…heck, many of our own citizens are just as woefully ignorant as you on such things…and sadly quite a few of them can’t even name all 50 states on a map or tell you who their elected officials are….but I digress.
You keep going on about your pet CLN theory, which you have never ever provided ANY evidence to support such a notion…nor has there every been any evidence anywhere out there that such a document exists. Nor can you explain how he could ever lose his citizenship and get a CLN as a child. You have been shown repeatedly in extensive detail on this site that there are no scenarios that are still feasible where Obama could have lost his US citizenship during his time in Indonesia.
I think you chose to live in such abject denial of reality and cling to your pet CLN theory, because it is your one claim to fame in birtherism – truly a unique notion that only you have been espousing. Too bad not even the other birthers take up your cause in their desperate attempts to weave fantasy scenarios and cling to non-existent straws.
Of course it is your right to “believe” anything. Natural born and native born are exactly the same thing. However, there is absolutely nothing that even suggest that Obama has considered relinquished his American citizenship. Nothing.
It is good to see that you still consider Obama is a natural born citizen.
I know a guy who believes that the government is under the control of lizard people who wear masks to look like humans.
That’s the problem with believing, Sven. You can believe something with all your heart, and mind, and soul, and it will stil have no appreciable effect on reality.
Rickey, G, Another Bird and Daniel;
If Natural born Citizen is equivalent to Citizen at birth, then why didn’t the Founders write Citizen at birth in the Constitution?
Isn’t it because some Citizens at birth were also considered British subjects due to parentage and the Founders wanted to eliminate those people from qualifying for POTUS, unless they were a citizen at the time of the ratification of the Constitution? And wasn’t Soebarkah a British Subject at birth?
Maybe the Doc should create a numbered index of all of the various articles here that relate to the constantly repeated questions. Then, we can just respond with a number of the article(s) that already answered the “question” multiple times. Granted, it is probably tempting for some to just respond by showing the article number with their fingers, though article 1 probably does not work for every repeated “question.”
Who, why, which or what
is the Akond of Soebarkah.
Is he tall or short, or dark or fair,
Does he sit on a stool or a sofa or a chair,
or SQUAT,
the Akond of Soebarkah?
With apologies to Edward Lear
I’ve got it! Sven is really an electric monk (as in DNA’s Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency) who has been charged with believing the stuff he posts here. Just ignore him. There’s no hope of convincing him of anything outside his programming.
Mario said it very well in his writ to SCOTUS …
“While the United States Supreme Court has directly decided what is the meaning of a “citizen of the United States,” and has provided in dicta the definition of an Article II “natural born Citizen,” it has never decided a case in which it applied the meaning of a “natural born Citizen” to the question of whether a President Elect meets the criteria in order to be eligilble to be President.”
– Mario Apuzzo
Kerchner v Obama
Per Wikipedia “In common law, a writ is a formal written order issued by a body with administrative or judicial jurisdiction; in modern usage, this body is generally a court.” Mario will never, ever, be able to issue a writ.
as we’ve been over ( multiple times ) a 6-10 year old can’t renounce his US citizenship. indonesian law requires a person to have lived in country for 5 years consecutively or 10 non-consecutive before they are eligible to even apply for citizenship. so sven, when in his lifetime did obama live in indonesia those 5 consecutive years ( or 6 more non-consecutive ) ?
They did, they wrote “natural born Citizen”. Since it means the same thing.
Or do you think they should have written, “No person except a natural born Citizen, Native born Citizen, Citizen at birth, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”
The founders spoke and wrote the english language. They knew how to use synonyms.
And native born is not equivalent to ‘citizen at birth’, native born comes from being born on the soil.
Remember that Hamilton had proposed the follow
The term was replaced by Natural Born citizen but then it required Congress to deal with children born abroad to US citizens…
It’s a petition, not a writ.
And of course Mario wastes his time and the Court’s time by raising issues which are irrelevant to the appeal. It doesn’t matter if Mario has evidence that Obama is a Klingon. It’s all about standing, and Kerchner doesn’t have it.
Here’s a story that the birthers won’t want to hear. From Wonkette:

President Obama to appear on Discovery’s ‘MythBusters’
A few days after showing up on MTV, VH1 and BET for a town hall discussion, President Obama will announce he’s headed to Discovery Channel — he will appear on an episode of “MythBusters,” a reality series that sends adventure-seekers to discover the scientific truth behind famous urban legends.

And the ever predictable Birfoons and ‘Baggers are already spouting in the comments section.
Obama is a Moslem or a “stealth” Moslem….(WTF)
Illegal immigration is his plan (not well articulated but I’m sure there is a cunning plan in there somewhere
“real” name is Soetoro
Global Warming is myth
etc
etc
And “stealth” racism in this comment: “aren’t there better myths they can do with obama? like can he swim?”
Birthers are mentally challenged, cowardly pigs and bigots.
Not to forget highly selective and selectively amnesiac….
As an example, over at the cock fighting pit that is Gretawire, our lovely Birfoons love to drop out and post the presidential approval ratings and always select the Rasmussen polls as they fit their preconceptions best.
Out of the goodness of my heart, periodically I cull out the last months moving figures from Rasmussen and have shown how the trend is towards Obama and not away.
Strangely enough this is not generally well received and abuse usually follows…8-)
This morning though…..no Birfoon poll number posts. Again in a desire to assist I post up that the numbers are better for Obama, both as a trend and as an absolute number. The numbers are 49% approve, 50% disapprove.
As if by magic, not a single post, not a single tirade, not a single attack….The reality distortion field in what passes for the Birfoon mind makes the post invisible.
I’ll keep bumping it until someone breaks….always fun…….
Excellent work! Popping birther bubbles is always fun.
They will also use the Gallup when his number is low, but if you post it when Obama’s approval rating is more than what they like, they dismiss it as a “liberal polling organization.” lol

Patrick McKinnion at Bad Fiction has found some more information about Fitzpatrick’s court-martial. Fitzpatrick inexplicably posted damning documents about his behavior at the Pest & eFail. It turns out that using his ship’s welfare fund to pay for crew members and spouses to attend a funeral was only part of it. Fitzpatrick also used thousands of dollars from the welfare fund to buy video and audio equipment for his stateroom and for the Captain’s stateroom.
“The equipment was picked out and purchased by the Executive Officer with MWR [morale, welfare & recreation] funds. It is the contention of the Executive Officer that these funds were properly spent due to his belief that they were part of the crew also….The impropriety of the acquisition was pointed out to the Executive Officer at the time of the purchase and afterwards by LCDR Dolan, the Assistant Supply Officer…The instructions clearly prohibit the expenditures of funds if the benefit will only be for a few…”
Nice guy. No wonder everyone despised him.

Hillary rejected Obama when he asked her to be VP going into 2012.
Ouch! That’s gotta hurt.
I get it. You’re a Dick when Sven gets his butt kicked. You’re beyond help.
The crazy of Orly….
Despite the cancelation of the event that originally would have brought her to the Valley, Dr. Orly Taitz, Esq. decided, due to the dedication and support from those who organized her speaking event at the Holiday Inn, she would come anyway.
Jeff Lichter, who organized the event, also attended Taitz’s hearings on behalf of Capt. Pamela Barnett regarding Obama’s eligibility in U.S. District Court for the Central District of California last year before Judge David O. Carter.
He said Carter’s demeanor changed markedly from September, when he stated he would hear the case on its merits and set trial dates for January of this year, and October when Carter decided to instead dismiss the case.
……………..
“Lichter then introduced Lyle Rapacki, who recently returned from meeting with Pastor James David Manning of the ATLAH World Missionary Church and the transcript committee in Harlem to determine how the transcripts from the May Obama CIA Columbia trial would be released.
Rapacki said he does intelligence work and, on the unconventional side, he’s “fighting the good fight to right this ship of state.”
He said Taitz has laid a lot of groundwork for others and due to her tenacity – her diligence – she’s helped others pick up the ball.
“There are very powerful folks trying to keep this quiet,” said Rapacki, adding, “No one person has scored on this issue. We’re trying to find a chink in the armor.”
Rapacki stated, “We’re not functioning under the Constitution anymore. No one has standing because we’re operating under corporate law. It’s a game to keep this from ‘We the People.’”
Laying out what was proved during Manning’s 10th Amendment trial, Rapacki explained that Obama was a CIA operative in Afghanistan from 1981-1984.
Because Obama left Occidental College as a C+ student, when he returned from Afghanistan he had nowhere to go.
A fraudulent education record at Columbia was subsequently created to get Obama into Harvard.
And, to get into Harvard, Obama would have had to have grades that placed him on the dean’s list. However, no such records exist.
Rapacki said it is all part of a grand scheme with Fox News complicit in keeping it quiet.
“The information is not sensational,” said Rapacki, “What’s sensational is it’s a lie.”
With the transcripts being released in a matter of days, Rapacki said Manning was getting ready to conduct the sentencing phase of the ATLAH trial and stated, “We’ll be armed with facts instead of emotion.”
At the end of the event, Townsend encouraged people to contact their state senators to ask them to vote for Russell Pearce for president of the Senate. She said he didn’t ask anyone to do this but stated he was the most deserving of that post.
She said the vote will take place in the Senate immediately after the Nov. 2 election.

Being nice, I spent all of 5 minutes, two cross references and 3 lookups and posted the facts….
================================
Sorry to pop your tiny little bubble MICO-1 you muppet but as is typical with Birfoons….more cack less fact.
So, since you singularly fail in that area, out of the goodness of my heart here are a few.
“BARACK OBAMA UK LTD” was a company name registered with Companies House opened up by a perrenial “get rich quick” loser by the name of Noel Stephen Mulry.
He has had at least 2 other companies opened and closed by the authorities for, amongst other things, failing to fill in tax returns, scamming customers and dumping industrial garbage in laybys. As a pointer, two of the other company names he used… “N S M INTERNATIONAL” and “GALWAYMAN ENTERPRISES LTD”, both dormant.
The phrase frequently used in the UK is that “He’s a f***ing Pikey” , ask Mary UK what that means.
He registered the “Barack Obama UK Ltd” name hoping to make some coin, failed miserably and the company is dormant with a capitalization of 1 pound.
So sorry to pop your fantasy but it has bog all to do with the President.
See, these are FACTS, hope you grasp the concept for our next chit-chat.
================================
Oooooh do they get ratty when you try and help ’em out…..8-)
Bov, you know that the facts just get in the way. I pointed out on one thread that the birther hero Tom Tancredo got a deferment from Vietnam in 1969 due to anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. I noted how that didn’t seem very heroic of a birther and GOP hero, especially one running for governor. I even used Wikipedia as my source. Of course I was vilified and told that Wiki was left leaning propaganda. I thought the birthers over at GW liked facts. Suprisingly I got the same response when I pointed out that another birther hero Mark Kirk lied about his service in the military. You would think that I would be appreciated for pointing out some additional information about these politicans, but alas, no luck
I also pointed out that Lakin’s attorney now admits that the order was lawful. Surprisingly all of the Lakin supporters had nothing to say. Amazing.
WND Touts Video of ‘Angel of Death’ Morphing Into Obama
Topic: WorldNetDaily
WorldNetDaily has already promoted the idea that Barack Obama is the Antichrist. Whywouldn’t it take the next logical step?
An Oct. 19 WND article by Bob Unruh promotes an anti-abortion video in which an image of an “Angel of Death” morphs into Obama. Unruh is clearly approving of this denigrating image, weirdly presenting as fact that the video “links President Obama with the ‘Angel of Death.'”
While Unruh includes a few comments critical of the video (none of which he links to) by “those who support abortion” — a false construct — he’s much more interested promoting the “personhood” amendment the video was created to support. Unruh also misleads about Obama’s record on abortion, misleadingly claiming that he “oppos[ed] as a state lawmaker even laws that would require doctors to provide medical care to infants who survive abortion attempts.”
That Unruh and WND would promote such a video demonstrates just how pathological their hatred of Obama is.
