Since if you were born out of the US before the US formed I believe you were elligible.

You found a really good site, Risus!! My oh my!! I can't believe all the dirt that has been dug up!:roll:
Obama was born in Hawaii. The argument is that at the time of the constitution Hawaii was not a US state, thus everyone from Hawii is natural born citizen. Likewise since Hawii is a Kindom that is occupied by the US, it isn't part of the natural US, so he would not be a natural born citizen. However his mother was American, this is brought into question, is natural born the same as jus sanguis? "When Hawaii became a state, it became settled law that Hawaiians would accept the United States Constitution and give up its monarchy, separate government, and sovereignty for Native Hawaiians. We had a national consensus both in and out of Hawaii that Native Hawaiians would be Americans". However, the Kingdom of Hawaii has reemerged in recent years, so does this mean also that Hawaiian may not be American anymore? To say the effect would be considerabe - suddently all people born in Hawaii would no longer be US citizens - pretty crazy if you ask me.
I think Mr. McCains situatin is a little more out there since he was born in Panama. Although suddently the Monroe Doctrine may be used to define Natural American, in that case mexican illegals and Canadians could all run for the top office - but Sadly.. still not Arnold.
Good trivia question. I'm curious.
Very interesting.Andrew Jackson who, according to my history prof (and friend) was born at sea on the trip his parents made from Ireland..........
Considering Dr. Toner is the expert on Irish immigration, I'll take his word on it.
I have read the information cited and can only see a problem if his mother was not of the age at his birth stated in the law. She is a US citizen and he would be too regardless of his place of birth IF she met the criteria stated. Even the two birth certificates in Hawaii wouldn't matter as long as his mothers age was correct according to the statute. Thanks Loon for this. It has been rumored for a while but if you notice the main stream media hasn't done anything with it yet. Their hesitance tells me there is more to this story. Tallolla, I told you the negatives would surface soon. While this one is sourced to another Democrat a bundle more are coming.
You're thinking of Dan Rather and CBS.Of course if Fox had reported it then it would have to be true. After all, they NEVER lie.
Obama, one way or another, is going to have to prove either some of the things below or all of them:
a) His Legal Name and Age.
b) His Legal Parentage and Place of Birth.
c) His Legal (Sole) Nationality/Citizenship.
d) Whether or not he has EVER been a Citizen of any Country other than the USA.
e) Whether or not he has ever Registered for Selective Service.
f) Whether or not he has any outstanding Tax Debts and his current Tax Status.
g) Whether or not he has any outstanding Criminal Convictions, etc. [Even unpaid Parking Tickets may count.]
h) Whether or not he is suffering from any Mental Illness or Condition that might render him unfit for Office. [Including any Record of Drug or Alcohol Abuse.]
i) Anything else any Court, Election Commission or Secretary of State asks him to prove.
No previous candidate, so far as I am aware, has ever had to prove all of these things but they can be asked to, and Obama, almost certainly will be. One may reasonably assume he will be asked for proofs in at least two States, if he becomes the Nominee.
If I had only one guess, I would say this likely came from the McCain camp somehow. I found a lot of stuff to backup the fact that Obama was born in the U.S., so I can see why the mainstream news didn;t bother with this........Too risky
Obama was born Aug 4 1961. If he was born in Hawaii, he was born in the US. Hawaii and Alaska became stars 49 and 50 in 1959
Kreskin - the whole issue could cover the Highway across Canada with all of the posts I have been reading.
The attorney who filed the objection hopefully will have it cleared up. It gives me brain cramp.
Last nite McCain told Jay Leno his SS Number was "8" he is so old !! haha
