I don’t think it is necessary at all, and I do not think that being born in another country means you have divided loyalties. I think that loyalty is proven through actions as opposed to a piece of paper which says which country you were born in.

Otherwise you would realise that neither Ms Gillard or Mr Abbott are fit. Considering one was born in wales and the other in London.

The US does not permit someone not born in the US to hold the office of President.  You can be a citizen, born outside the US to hold political office but the President must be US born.

Philby Burgess Maclean, Blunt & Cairncross were all poms born & bred: spied for Russia for years. Several homegrown yanks spied for cash. Foreign born Arnie, whatever you might think of him generally, is nothing if not patriotic US. Where you are born is not a big deal really.

For anybody who has bothered to look into the so-called “birther”  accusations, they have raised plenty of unanswered anomolies regarding Obama’s history. And Obama has spent millions in multiple court cases to prevent disclosure of his history.

Any impartial person would have to wonder why. It is clear that he is hiding something.

Despite all the doubts about the birth certificate that has been released, I tend to believe that he probably was born in Hawaii.

I suspect that he has falsified his nation of birth in the past, and claimed to be born in Kenya instead of Hawaii, in order to qualify for affirmative action preferential treatment during his college years. That is why he doesn’t want his college records released.

In fact, up until 2007 it was on record that he was born in Kenya. There is no birthplace restriction on US Senators, this restriction only applies to the Presidency.

See some published documents on Obama, which were never contested before he ran for President:

It wouldn’t be a good look if Obama’s college records showed that he claimed to be born in Kenya, even if the truth is that he was born in Hawaii. He still lied for personal benefit.

But maybe we will never know the truth, as no Big Media journalists are willing to investigate. The whole subject is just dismissed as crazy talk, and the anomolies in Obama’s historical record are ignored.

@Greg - surely you’re not arguing the tired case that Obama as an undergraduate got a Fulbright scholarship restricted to foreign students?  Given that Fulbrights are only awarded to grad students, you fail at the first hurdle.

“Remember when it was suggested Trump himself would run for President?”

Yes, we Americans all had a good laugh about that.

Greg says:

The US constitution actually states that the President must be a “natural born citizen”. That is, a citizen at the time of birth - born on US territory to US citizen parents.

Whether this is right or wrong is irrelevant, it is a qualification for the office.

There have been multiple lawsuits lodged to contest Obama’s eligibility, but all of them have been dismissed without proceeding to discovery. Often without any reason given for the dismissal, or for technicalities like “the plaintiff does not have standing for this case to proceed” or the court does not have jurisdiction.

Only the US High Court could settle the matter, but they refuse to hear cases all the time without giving any reason.

marley says:

@Greg - well, Obama has a genuine birth certificate saying he was born in Hawaii. I’m not exactly what more you expect.  The Supreme Court only hears cases where an error of law may have occurred, and obviously, given that the record is there, none has.

All the republicans scare me to death, they are mad no two ways about it.
Although to find a president sane who bails out wall street whose peeps played such a lovely roll in the crash, instead of 250,000 families out on there ass. i also dont find it sane the his hero status he enjoys for being the” lord of the drones"with 98% succ, wait FAIL rate. 2% of all killed are terrorlsts. Geez how do they convince recruits?
Or a president who was hope but then signed NDAA indefinate detention where any american,, or foreigner yes they wrote into there jurisdiction you and me, this is hiters germany no joke they can
detain u whenever they want , with know 1 having to be told ever, no court. U may dissapear into the night. Oh yea he also in in the process of signing a dranconian internet policy. Oh yes and he crossed path of those with hope for israel by pandering to the AIPAC and the Israeli right by Calling Jerusalem Israels capital, in direct contradiction to international law
Watch the Debates. Obama is just as nuts most of his policies are similar to Romney. Two men with the same goal for “America”, as we know thats not who they work for. Different management styles.

I’m guessing that you haven’t heard the things that Trump has come up with in the past year or so.  You don’t need to support any particular candidate to come to the conclusion that he has been talking out of his arse for a while now, trying to stir the pot.

If republicans are retarded, democrats must be complete and total vegetables. Kind of makes sense though, most progressives I think have IQ’s similar to a sack of potatoes.

no, sorry to shoot your argument down but studies have proven conservatives are the ones with low IQ’s
