    The issue, if you could keep up with the discussion, is not where he was born. The issue is his lying by omission. He waited until very recently to disclose that he was formerly a citizen of Kenya. That would make many voters highly uncomfortable. I want a full-blooded American leading America. That seems like a reasonable request.

    Being a dual citizen doesn't mean you aren't a full blooded american. He had Kenyan citizenship because of his father's citizenship... and it expired when he was 19!!! It's not gamebreaking or even freakin relevant, unless youre a conservadouche.

    If you want to go with your line of reasoning... then NO JEWS ARE FULL-BLOODED AMERICANS because they are automatically citizens of Israel.

    Are you saying I'm not a full-blooded american? Enjoy lunch with your Mexican nationals.

    Yes. The fact that his father was Kenyan was covered up for decades. The British citizenship law was likewise covered up by the international community for decades just so baby Obama could grow up and become President. Kenyan independence was a worldwide secret, as was its citizenship laws. For proof of this, how come you never hear about Kenya winning Olympic gold medals. Nobody knew. Nobody could have figured out this nefarious scheme. Clearly this is a United Nations plot. Wait, is that a black helicopter? OMG!

    Seriously though, your full-blooded phrase is on the edge and obviously intentional... leave the anti-miscegenation to the history books.

    :confused:

    Huh? I want someone who is 100% an American citizen, and has always been a 100% American citizen, leading our nation. I don't want someone with divided loyalties, whether that is now or in the past.

    1. Look at his crazy pastor!
    2. He could be muslim!
    3. He's not 100% American because of his father.
    4. He loves Kenya more than America!!

    I'd vote for the best qualified, even if he was a man straight out the caves of Afghanistan.

    It's clear that Obama's resume doesn't qualify him for the position -- that much we know.

    All i know and most of the country agrees, the interviews with Sarah Palin indicates she's not even close to qualifying.

    Obama has more experience than Abraham Lincoln. So his resume is pretty good.

    Thanks TJ.

    Actually, that's what makes the Indonesian angle interesting. What happened to Obama's (former citizen of Kenya) US citizenship during that time?

    All Obama had to do was to show his birth certificate and the case would have been toast. Instead what does he do? Uses a lawyer who Michelle Obama worked with to pressure the judge into dismissing the case for lack of standing. Why use a technicality when he could have produced the evidence and ended all speculation?

    Now, today the Hawaii Governor has announced that his original birth certificate is sealed and will not be released. Hmm... Why? Why does he hide behind intimidation and technicalities? Would someone who has nothing to hide do that?
