kimmielittle,
There is no reason to believe that the COLB is a forgery. In fact both Democratic and Republican governors and officials have seen the long form certificate on file and have certified that the COLB is accurate. So what you see there is certified. (raised seal and all.) So if something is off, it isn’t that there is a miss-match between the COLB and the long form.
They state they have seen the Long Form…BUT not what’s on the Long Form
The only items on the long form that are not on the short form that he released are:
Place of birth, address, time
Mother’s address, age and occupation
Father’s address, age and occupation
parent signiture
signiture and id of the attending physicians (if any)
And the above are what Mr Obama needs to prove eligibility. Along with Mother and Father’s Citizenship.
Article 2, Section 1, of the Constitution of the United States, SPECIFICALLY states, “No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President…” It’s NOT a technicality, or lunacy on the part of our Founding Fathers. It is a specific statement within a document that forms the basis for ALL of our laws and not open to interpretation (unless the entire Constitution should be now open to interpretation).
In order to be a “natural born citizen,” you must be born in the United States or, if you are born abroad, you CAN (if specific circumstances are met) inherit natural born status from your parents. If he was born abroad, then that’s a problem for Barack Hussein Obama because his father was NOT a citizen of the United States and his mother had not lived in the United States the required amount of time after attaining the age of majority when Obama was born - meaning SHE COULD NOT pass her citizenship on to Obama.
Not to confound or confuse the issue but here’s a complicating twist: the State of Hawaii permitted parents to obtain a “Certification of Live Birth” (the unreliable document that Obama produced and is falsely claiming is his birth certificate) EVEN IF THE CHILD WAS NOT BORN IN HAWAII.
Below is the relevant statute:
“§338-17.8] Certificates for children born out of State. (a) Upon application of an adult or the legal parents of a minor child, the director of health shall issue a birth certificate for such adult or minor, provided that proof has been submitted to the director of health that the legal parents of such individual while living without the Territory or State of Hawaii had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth or adoption of such child.”
When queried, Dr Chiyome Fukino, with Hawaii’s Department of Health, stated: “Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawaii, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawaii State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
Again, this above ] doesn’t answer eligibility.
And Obama’s paternal grandmother said, she was present at Obama’s birth, which took place in Mombasa in what is now Kenya.
The Certificate Offered the American people doesn’t even meet the requirements for a passport.
Speaking of which:
.
“'There’s the matter that Obama traveled to Indonesia, Pakistan, Southern India and Kenya in 1981. He said he went to Indonesia to see his mother. This seemed plausible, except for the fact that his mother returned to Hawaii in August of 1980 to file for a divorce from her second husband, Lolo Soetoro. Unless she went back to pal around with the man she divorced, she wasn’t there at the time of Obama’s visit.”
“‘There’s another problem. No record of Obama holding an American passport prior to the one he received once becoming a U.S. senator has been found. If he traveled to Pakistan with an American passport, he wouldn’t have been allowed in - since Pakistan was in turmoil in 1981 and under martial law. It was also on the State Department’s travel ban list for U.S. citizens… . If he couldn’t get into Pakistan with a U.S. passport, perhaps he went there with an Indonesian passport. But the only way you can get one of those is if you are an Indonesian citizen.’”
What does all that mean? Simply put, if Obama was an American citizen, how did he travel to Pakistan?
