Obama's mother was an American citizen. Simply, by virtue of being born to at least one parent who is a citizen, he IS also a natural U.S. citizen. That is a fact. Deal with it. My neice was born in a civilian German hospital while my brother was stationed over there in the army. She is and always has been a U.S. citizen.
Then there is also the fact that two different Honolulu newspapers have released Obama's birth announcements from their archives.
It's just unfathomable to me that people believe that Obama, despite only being a player on the national level of politics for about 6 years at the time, had somehow managed to very quietly become so powerful that he was able to have people not only get a fake birth certificate filed 40 years retroactively with the state of Hawaii...under a republican governor at the time...and plant two birth announcement in the micro-fiched archives of two newspapers..and be so successful at pulling off this ruse that even the mightiest of politicians and media and business titans can't find a shred of irrefutable proof that he did any of it.
Wow. That's some pretty far fetched conspiracy theories there. Most politicians can't even keep their pants zipped up or their checkbooks balanced but to believe in a birther conspiracy you would have to believe that the president is not only a genius and master manipulator but engenders so much loyalty that not one person who might have supposedly played a role in any of this alleged deception...from a high-level secret agent to a lowly records clerk...has come forward to give credence to any of the rumors.
I'm sorry....but the deck of evidence and improbabilities are stacked heavily against the birthers and their refusal to drop this issue will ultimately only serve to bolster Obama's supporters.
Maybe the whole birther movement is just a conspiracy in itself. Maybe Obama is actually behind it to make conservative look crazy. Either way, they do and it's a look into what kind of dingbats are on the fringe right.
I wonder how many birthers also believe that 911 was an inside job, that there was no moon landing and that Kennedy's assassination was covered up as well.

If you can provide a link to anything that says that MB, I'll be happy to still say that you're wrong. A person simply needs to be born in the U.S. to be a natural born citizen. That's the law.
