Feel free to share with concerned [cough*racist*cough] citizens everywhere.

Of course it does. Hasn't anyone else ever suspected that before?

After looking into it I found that Obama's mother being an American would make no difference. Obama's mother does not meet the criteria listed in #4. Birth abroad to one United States citizen <<A person born on or after November 14, 1986, is a U.S. citizen if all of the following are true (different rules apply if child was born out-of-wedlock):[7] 1. The person's parents were married at time of birth 2. One of the person's parents was a U.S. citizen when the person in question was born 3. The citizen parent lived at least five years in the United States before the child's birth 4. A minimum of two of these five years in the United States were after the citizen parent's 14th birthday.>>

Originally Posted By Princessjenn5795 "^^I think Obama was born before 1986" Unless he is also secretly only 25, and then there is a whole other conspiracy to look into.
Originally Posted By Labuda Yeah, if he's only 25, then I'm all for kicking him out of office since THEN he would not meet the criteria set forth in the Constitution.
Originally Posted By Princessjenn5795 Although, it would mean he graduated from Harvard Law School at age 6, so he would be some sort of super genius...I am all for having one of those in the White House.
Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan That must be it, he's lying about his age. His grandparents ran a newspaper birth announcement 25 years before he was actually born in Kenya. They spent the next 25 years trying to find the ideal Islamic fundamentalist mate for their communist/socialist daughter. It's diabolical. Clever, but so diabolical.
Originally Posted By Tony C I believe the first words spoken when Obama was created were "we can rebuild him"
Originally Posted By Princessjenn5795 ^^ All with the goal of one day making him President. Wow, those grandparents of his were some master conspirators!
