"This came from a USNA alumnus. It'll be interesting to see how the media handle this...

Barack Obama is not a legal U.S. natural-born citizen according to the law on the books at the time of his birth, which falls between December 24, 1952, to November 13, 1986. Federal Law requires that the office of President requires a natural-born citizen if the child was not born to two U.S. Citizen parents. This is what exempts John McCain, though he was born in the US Panama Canal Zone .

US Law very clearly states: '. . . If only one parent is a U.S. Citizen at the time of one's birth, that parent must have resided in the United States for minimum ten years, five of wh ich must be after the age of 16.' Barack Obama's father was not a U.S. Citizen is a fact.

Obama's mother was only 18 when Obama was born. This means even though she had been a U.S. Citizen for 10 years, (or citizen of Hawaii being a territory), his mother fails the test for at-least-5-years- prior-to Barack Obama's birth, but-after-age- 16.

In essence, Mother alone is not old enough to qualify her son for automatic U.S. Citizenship. At most, 2 years elapsed from his mother turning 16 to the time of Barack Obama's birth when she was 18. His mother would have needed to have been 16 + 5 = 21 years old at the time of Barack Obama's birth for him to be a natural-born citizen. Barack Obama was already 3 years old at the time his mother would have needed to be to allow him natural citizenship from his only U.S. Citizen parent. Obama should have been naturalized as a citizen . . . b u t that would disqualify him from holding the office.

The Constitution clearly declares: Naturalized citizens are ineligible to hold the office of President. Though Barack Obama was sent back to Hawaii at age 10, any other information does not matter because his mother is the one who must fulfill the requirement to be a U.S. Citizen for 10 years prior to his birth on August 4, 1961, with 5 of those years being after age 16.

Further, Obama may have had to have remained in the USA for some time frame to protect any citizenship he might have had, rather than living in Indonesia . This is very clear cut and a glaring violation of U.S. Election la w. I think the Governor Schwarzenegger of California should be very interested in discovering if Obama is allowed to be elected President without being a natural-born U.S. Citizen, since this would set a precedent. Stay tuned to your TV sets because I suspect some of this information will be leaking through over the next several days."

And, here is the answer provided by www.Snopes.com - Can Obama be President?



Support Eyes On Obama!


Discussion:

They, the GOP and McCain, are desperate.  I guess with McCain as my candidate I would be desperate too.  We all will have to make sure we have Barack's backside covered because, to use Jack Cafferty's book title, "It's getting UGLY out there". 

The more we can keep each other informed and the websites to go to defuse the lies...the easier and quicker the defusion will come.  Such a long time before November!!!

[-] Makes no difference - Guest-bjland
It does not make any difference how long Obama has been in office, if he is proven to not be eligible to be President the Constitution is very clear. Since he assumed the duties he is guilty of Treason and is to be sentenced to life imprisonment or death if just one member of the Armed Forces is killed following an order by the illegal office holder. It is in the Constitution, and it is about time we start following it.
