You should really stop your misinformed jabbering about the Birth Certificate issue. Certainly it might furnish some clarifying information by showing up, no doubt, some of the man's dissembling ... but most people are not claiming he is not an American citizen (though he may very well not be - can't tell without the BC) but that has no bearing at all on his eligibility to be President.<br> <br> On his own website "FightTheSmears.com" Obama has already admitted that:<br> <br> “When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children."<br> <br> This is Barack being unusually honest and telling everyone that at birth he was an Americsn (presumably) on his maternal side and a Brisish subject (on the fraternal side). the Kenya Constiturion also IDs Obama the lesser as a "Commonwealth citizen" - their term for a Brisish subject.<br> <br> Being born with at best only one parent an American citizen therefore precludes any legal entitlement to become President no matter where he was born - and there's no way to change that except by trying straw men, red herrings, and gullible media types to faunch about "birth certificates" which have no meaning as far as the eligibility as a natural born citizen goes ... he's not and never can be.<br> <br> Don't worry though, John McCain was also not eligible since he, too, was not a natural born citizen (per the Constiftutional meaning) since he was born of 2 US parents (one of the requirements) but not on "US soil" (the second requirement). He was born not in the Canal Zone on a militray base as some claim, but in the main hospital in the City of Colon, Panama ... and that appears on his BC. The meaningless Senate Resolution SR511 claimning McCain is a NBC is just more chicanery and duplicity on the part of the 2 main political parties - and remember, Obama was one of the sponsors of that resolution (Hoping, perhaps it would help his "little problem" to slide along unnoticed?). It has no legal effect at all.<br> <br> So you see your original comment that "The latest case was brought by a Connecticut man who claims that Obama was a British subject when born (because of his father) which would make Obama ineligible to be President." is correct only in that the Wrotnowski case was brought by a CT man but it was not he who made the dual citizzenship claim but Mr. Obama (or whatever his name might be - where's that pesky BC?) himself. So the message you conveyed was incorrect in its main content.
