1. McCain was living in a glass house. His "natural born" citizenship isn't a sure thing. Why draw attention to this issue when it seemed that he was likely going to beat him on the issues (before the economy fell apart)?
2. It is too AUDACIOUS to think that a senator would attempt to run for president with his knowledge of Constitutional law and not have a bonafide birth certificate to show.
3. Remember the Media wasn't vetting him but rather an adoring audience. By the time there was honest doubt; it was too late for a black man to be shown the door without rioting in the street.
Senators Introduce Resolution
To Make Clear Senate’s Position On Candidate’s Status
Some Senator Barack Obama was a co signer on this bill.
WASHINGTON (Thursday, April 10, 2008) – Sens. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) today introduced a resolution expressing the sense of the U.S. Senate that presidential candidate and current Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) is a ‘natural born Citizen,’ as specified in the Constitution and eligible to run for President.
In February, The New York Times published a report calling into question the legality of McCain’s presidential run. McCain was born to American citizens stationed on an American Naval base in the Panama Canal Zone. He has since served in the U.S. Navy, and, since 1983, has served in the U.S. Congress.
“Because he was born to American citizens, there is no doubt in my mind that Senator McCain is a natural born citizen,” said Leahy. “I expect that this will be a unanimous resolution of the Senate.”
“It is silly for anyone to argue that Senator McCain is not eligible to become president,” said McCaskill. “I would hope that this is something we can all agree on, for goodness sakes.”
At a Judiciary Committee hearing on April 3, Leahy asked Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff, himself a former Federal judge, if he had doubts that McCain was eligible to serve as President.
“My assumption and my understanding is that if you are born of American parents, you are naturally a natural-born American citizen,” Chertoff replied.
GOP is legal and since the question was raised , It was dealt with properly.
Where is Obama's certificate?
This pretty much shoots down Mikies' whining.
Secretary Chertoff. My assumption and my understanding is that if you are born of American parents, you are naturally a natural-born American citizen.
twisp and mike don't know how to do investigation.
The foul mouthed daily kos and media matters are to vulgar to read. Shrill sites defend the obama cartel.
THE INTENT OF THE FRAMERS WAS CORRECT. AND WHAT DO WE HAVE, A PRESIDENT WITH DIVIDED LOYALTIES, IN SPITE OF THEIR CONCERNS!. and dont tell me im crazy, if you dont think so, listen to "abuma" as he can and does mimic the islamic call for prayer, with a perfect accent in arabic and says it is the most beutifull sound in the world at sunset and then says" this will give people in alabama a heart attack" correction abuma, it should have given anyone a heart atack. i cant believe people voted for him after hearing that and his statements on shutting the coal industry down . OUR LARGEST SOURCE OF ELECTRICAL POWER!. anyone that voted for him is blind and deaf
!
'bama Senior didn't have a legal American marriage.
His dad was a citizen of Britain.
Stanley was fornicating at age 17 with a foreignor from Kenya that is married? Was Obama even in the states legally?
I read his birth announcement from the advertiser and they tell us he was not living at the house they gave. some other people owned and lived in their own home there.
More deliberate cluelessness.
Look how slowly the move with Blagojevech. Obama's sleazy illinois bud.
We keep reiminding you that it was the legal problem of the Democrat party to offer a leagal and clean candidate.
We all know that all the original citizenship disputes of Obama were by the Hilary camp and not McCain.
where have you been?
A legal problem of the Democratic party huh? The Republican party had no recourse on the matter, you suppose?
Just to be clear in your legal dissertation to us all coadie, you're stating that the ONLY party in position to challenge Barack Obama's citizenship qualifications for the Presidency are the members of his own political party?
You're claim is that the only means of a legal remedy for a citizenship objection is for a member of a politician's OWN party to take him to court??
The opposition party (or a complainant associated with the opposite party) could never have brought the matter before a Federal court??
You're logic leaves much to be desired if you truly believe that.

coadie remember" though one rose from the dead, they wont believe" what kind of a chance do WE have of convincing these blind boys? unbelievable!
The One who rose from the dead, spoke very strongly of bearing false witness against others. It's a serious matter, when things are told as facts against another, when in fact, it's falsehoods and rumors.

You're not rational because you are asking me to believe that the GOP just didn't vett a Presidential candidate of another party even when the issue had been brought up in full public view.
If you want to not bear false witness. It is up to a candidate and his own party to meet the standards.
Just in a clean
Open and straight forward way. McCain did it publically. His mom is alive. His parents were both real citizens. The Democrats reviewed it and past a resolution.

crooked people hide facts and they of course have loyal supporters that defend it. sloppy and unethical but it is to be expected.
If Obama will do everything to support the killing of unborn children, the fake/forged birth documents are nothing.

Would you say telling people you were born at Queens hospital and then changing it to a different hospital would be an example of false witness?
Now he's listing it at Kapi'olani.
If you support Obama you must be endorsing these deeds
29Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
I suggest being more carefull in supporting the deeds of Oblahma
Boastful and very deceiptful.
snopes repeates the lies of his place of birth.
What does God says happens to people that take pleasure in those that do the above things?
Why does scripture list the deeds along with homosexuality? How inconvenient.

Bump for coadie.
Is that really what you're claiming?
