Jojo, a little lesson in logic.

The proposition that A is B does not negate that C may also be B.

Someone with both parents who are U.S. Citizens are natural born 
U.S. citizens. However, this does not tell us what the situation is 
with the other cases. You are claiming that the courts have ruled 
only with respect to the first case. You have not pointed to any case 
ruling on the relevant other cases.


Specifically, here, the most relevant question is whether or not a 
person born in the United States or U.S. territories, of a U.S. 
citizen parent and a non-citizen parent, which is the case with 
Obama, is a natural born citizen. Any case on that, Jojo? My 
understanding is that there have been cases, and they have not gone 
as you have claimed, certainly not after the 14th amendment was passed.


to quote it:
All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to 
the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of 
the State wherein they reside.


This covers natural born with the first category. Naturalized is 
the excluded category. Naturalized citizens cannot become the 
President. People born in the United States (i.e., subject to U.S. 
jurisdiction at birth) are citizens by right of birth, and natural 
born citizen has never meant, since that amendment, anything but that.


You are confidently asserting that there are contrary cases, the 
courts have ruled. Okay, what cases? Put up, or, more likely, given 
how you are trending, shut up.


You know, I don't even read you verbose essays anymore.  I grow 
tired of the lies, the misinformed opinions, and the blatant 
propaganda masquerading as informed opinion.  You have succeeded in 
doing one thing.  You have succeeded in wearing me down with your 
useless words.


So maybe the time has not been entirely wasted.

So, I'll let you have the last word.  Anyone who listens to you

Someone who believes what you write is in even more serious trouble

Make us all happy, perhaps your only good deed here. Go away.

I will say that I've learned a lot in the last couple of days. I 
really had no idea how crazy the birthers were. Jojo's arguments 
about the odds against random mutations driving speciation were at 
least, old arguments, not totally wing-nut, just erroneous. But he 
went totally off the deep end, not only about the birth certificate 
issue, but with the constant use of contemptuous names, like bambi. 
All the while pretending to be a Christian. I don't believe it. I 
work closely with real Christians, they are not responsible for Jojo 
any more than I'm responsible for Obama bin Laden.

Hate speech is when people imply birthers are clueless.
Hate speech is when people call those who believe in Intelligent Design 
uninformed.
Hate speech is when people make fun of what people believe.

Calling bambi a criminal is not hate speech, since it is the truth.
Presenting Evidence for Intelligent Design is not hate speech.
Asking for evidence from bambi regarding his vault Birth Certificate is not 
hate speech.
Calling Islam a hateful religion is NOT hate speech as it is the truth.

You may call anything hate speech but that does not make it true.

Everyone with half a brain cell knows that what 
he released was faked.  But I guess I can 
forgive you because you don't have half a brain cell.


Attempting to use my quarter-cell, I wasted an 
entire day researching the birther claims. Let's 
say that Jojo's position appears to be that 
anyone who agrees with the strong majority of 
experts and commentators is stupid.


The evidence out there had me going for a short 
time. I found some stuff by Miss Tickle that 
seemed to show clear evidence of image 
alteration. I did suspect it, but, hey, it looked 
bad! So I checked it out further. Yes. I could 
see in the originals presented by Miss Tickle 
that the image was a jpeg and had been through 
lossy compression. I didn't know the specifics of 
this to be sure about the effect, but I did 
somewhat suspect that sections of the image, say 
the check boxes, were identical to other 
sections, at the pixel level, as being caused by 
the compression algorithm. I.e., one image of a 
box was repeated as being considered by the 
algorithm, as sufficiently identical to allow the 
transmission of a single image that is repeated.


So the real story: the images released were 
compressed. Like, that was obvious from a quick 
glance. If you look at the text on the LFBC, 
you'll see a halo around the text. That's an 
artifact of compression. If the image were not 
compressed, those images would be huge. 
Compressing images is routine in web 
presentations. I don't know if an uncompressed 
scan is available. Ideally, it should be. Lossy 
compression was used, because it is more 
effective. It's also possible that the images 
were enhanced to improve legibility.


But the real point is entirely missed. Legally, 
it's not the image that counts, it is the 
certification of the public official that the 
document is a true copy. If someone was taking 
such a certified document and altering it, 
presenting it publically, to obtain an advantage, 
that would probably be a felony, and one very easily established.


To obtain a legal right, one would have to 
present the original signed and sealed document. 
I've been through this. Copies are completely 
inadequate, unless themselves certified under 
oath (and thus penalty of perjury). You can't get 
a passport, for example, by presenting an 
uncertified copy of a birth certificate. You need 
a certified copy, with the state seal and an original official signature.


I saw all kinds of crazy reasons given why the 
LFBC must be a forgery. For example, there is 
another LFBC out there for the same hospital, a 
birth the next day or so. It's a standard 
old-time copy, the kind I've gotten many times 
when I've requested a copy of my birth 
certificate (from 1944, Los Angeles). It's a 
negative, there was a common method of making 
cheap copies before xerography, 
quasi-photographic. The recent copy provided by 
the state to Obama for release is xerographic, 
probably, or perhaps scanned and printed, on the 
green security paper. Again, I think I've seen copies like that.


In addition, there is an issue of the serial 
numbers. There seems to be an assumption that 
births at the same hospital will necessarily be 
serialized in order of birth. Nope. It depends on 
exact procedures. I don't know the exact 
procedure, and even if I did, there would be no 
guarantee that this procedure was actually 
followed in 1961 in this particular case. Clerks 
do all kinds of irregular things, and all they 
really care about with the serial numbers is that 
no two birth certificates have the same number. 
Sequence is legally meaningless, so no major 
effort is put into it. Once you realize that the 
number on the certificate is not the sequence of 
birth, that the numbers are state-assigned and 
that births are coming in from many hospitals and 
other sources (not all babies are born in 
hospitals) and that registration of births can be 
substantially delayed, both within and without 
the law, the numbers really don't mean anything.


The birthers are able to assert a huge pile of 
signs that the birth certificate(s) are bogus. 
These assertions are contradictory to each other. 
For example, the name of the hospital is claimed 
to be an anachronism, in one set of birther 
claims, while others show the twin births at the 
same hospital and allege the problem with serial 
number sequence, and still others claim that the 
twin birth certificates are themselves forgeries, 
because the mother was allegedly a communist, or something like that.


Sane conservatives have long ago abandoned the 
birther myth. We are, here, not dealing with a 
sane conservative. We are dealing with a fanatic.


You say that the Vault BC can not be obtained 
easily.  You say they do not have procedures for 
getting the real Long Form Vault BC.  You say this are not publicly accessible.


That's been noted by the official in charge.

That opinion was rejected more than a hundred years ago.

There are some interesting legal issues here, but they are utterly of 
no practical consequence. The position that both parents must be US 
citizens is utterly without foundation, it's made up.


The case of a U.S. Citizen mother and a non-citizen father, with the 
child born outside the U.S., is a marginal one and it's not clear how 
a court would decide. Does the law in effect in 1961 apply? If later 
law essentially defines natural born differently -- as it does --, 
does this reach back and define as natural born for purposes of the 
constitutional requirement, according to the current definition?


Some statements I've seen of the current law imply that it is not 
retroactive, so if this is true, then Obama would not be a natural 
born citizen, since his mother was three months short of her 19th 
birthday, which is the age required under the old law for the birth 
to be automatic citizenship.


Jojo seems to be requiring that the constitutional provision have 
some kind of original intepretation, but it's entirely unclear what 
that was. The original clause, from what I've seen, was inserted at 
the last minute and without explanation.


What I've been asserting is what a U.S. court would be likely to 
decide, based on precedent. Jojo seems to belong to a 
fundamentalist school of law, that presumes that there is some 
constitutional law that exists separately from how the courts 
interpret it. And anyone who sides with the court's actual 
interpretation, as confirmed over, say, more than a century, is a liar.


It's fanaticism, pure and simple.

The marginal case is irrelevant, because Obama will be considered by 
any court, unless someone pulls a rabbit out of a hat, as being born 
in the U.S., specifically in Hawaii, in 1961. It's established by the 
required documentation, and anyone who thinks that the courts will 
disregard the documentation, absent a clear showing of fraud, is 
seriously deluded.


The U.S. Supreme Court has, to my chagrin, made decisions that were 
motivated by results rather than the facts and law and precedent in a 
case, but a decision removing a sitting President based on what has 
been alleged is far, far worse than anything I've ever seen them do. 
Even if it were actually shown that Obama were born in Kenya, for 
example, the Court would be highly likely to refuse the case, citing 
res judicata, that the matter was decided by Congress in certifying 
the election results. Congress has the right -- and responsibility -- 
to consider eligibility.


Congress could also impeach, if there was Presidential misbehavior 
involved, and forging documents would probably be considered 
misbehavior. That is a reason why the forgery is exrremely unlikely. 
It's difficult to imagine anything that might be on the document that 
would be worth risking his presidency over. People have claimed that 
the father might be different, and that he couldn't stand the heat of 
that. Highly unlikely, folks, even if it were true.


(On the other hand, I'd have thought that a sitting President was 
constitutionally protected from prosecution, and the Court, not so 
long ago, allowed a sitting president to be thoroughly harassed over 
matters that were entirely distracting from the business of the Presidency.)


Notice how the birther claims are essentially all over the map. 
What's consistent about them is that there is something wrong.

recognize baloney, and many of the birther claims about the PDF files 
are just that.


but I can tell your expert opinion below consists of nothing more 
than Highly Enriched Weapons Grade Balonium.


Weapons grade. Thanks.

   Over a dozen document experts, software experts and other 
experts have said the BC presented to us was fake; and here you are 
thinking you are smarter than everybody.  Typical Arrogance.


Biased sample, Jojo. You are only selecting the experts you agree 
with. There are *many* experts who have opined the opposite of your 
position. Bottom line, Jojo. Prove it. It's all irrelevant if nobody 
actually takes this to court. Go ahead, put your money together and 
waste it on this. I'll be happy, because that's just so much less 
money to be spent on real mischief.


I'm not smarter than everybody. As I mentioned, one of the 
experts had me going for a bit. I did suspect something was off, 
but wasn't sure. And then what I found, searching for commentary on 
that expert jogged my memory. Yes.


It's obvious. Lossy compression works by recognizing *approximate* 
patterns and replacing them with a single version, which is then 
repeated. I pointed to a higher-resolution copy that hasn't been 
compressed in that way. It was still available as JPEG and you can 
see some JPEG artifacts in the colors, in particular, but it's much 
better and the supposed proofs of alteration aren't there.


The remaining interesting allegation is the showing of various 
versions of letters. To me, the letters look as the same font, and 
I don't see being done what one would sensibly and scientifically do: 
examine the variation in type patterns of many documents; what has 
been shown is easily artifact of two things: various levels of impact 
from the keys, ribbon differences, incomplete ink transfer, and 
digitisation variations. What is done is not scientific, it's on the 
level of gee, this looks weird. What is weird? How much variation 
is *normal*? I could do that work, but, frankly, I consider that the 
whole topic is a waste of time. I've already wasted far too much time 
on this. I did look, at everything you pointed to. You struck out, 
Jojo. You had your chance.



BUT, just answer why Bambi has not allowed his Vault BC to be seen.


It's been seen. The Vault BC, by the way, is legally unnecessary. 
The critical information is on the short form that was released, and 
if Obama has ever applied for a passport -- and he has -- he had to 
present one of those. Not some copy, a state-certified original.



  He can end this Birther movement and nip it at the roots if he did so.


It's been demonstrated, quite well, that birthers like you will never 
give up. The release of the long form had long been demanded on the 
same basis. Note: if the long form document is a forgery, what's 
important about it. The excuse for the whole flap has been the 
question of eligibility, and the short form has all that is needed to 
know about that. The basis now being asserted for a problem is that 
supposedly Obama had something to hide, something so embarrassing 
that he'd risk impeachment to hide it. It's all fishing, and has gone 
way beyond merely silly. It's looney-tune wacko.


  Why hasn't he done so?  When somebody is going to great lengths 
that Bambi is going to, somebody is hiding something.  Something 
that is criminal.  For me, it's no longer about the BC, it about 
obstruction of Justice.  I remember one former president having to 
resign due to an offense much more minor than what Bambi is doing 
now.  He imprisoned a decorated American Colonel soldier because he 
did not want to reveal his Vault BC.  Such actions are 
treasonous.  And if you think that is OK, then you are 
treasonous.  You are working for the destruction of America and 
change it to your way of life.  Maybe, both your actions shouldn't 
surprise me at all as I know both of your backgrounds.

Despite your long long long essay; as usual, you failed to understand the 
issue correctly.  The opinion you proffered below appeared to me to be from 
Wikipedia, and so I checked, and low and behold, you simply regurgitated the 
fine fine fine scholarship of wikipedia.  No wonder you're confused.


First, Congress is not tasked to intrepret the Constitution.  It is not in 
their power to do so, and not their duty and obligation to do so.  When 
Congress does make a pronouncement regarding any matter of interpretation of 
law, their pronouncement is simply an opinion and does not carry the weight 
as precedent.  Unlike with the Judicial branch, whose decisions become 
precedent and law.  We need to go to the Courts to determine the proper 
meaning and interpretation of the law.  You can bitch all you want and show 
all you want that Congress has made that determination and your opinion 
means squat.


In Shanks v. Dupont, Minor vs. Happersett, United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 
just to name a few cases; the Courts (including the Supreme Court) ruled 
that a Natural Born US Citizen is one born out of 2 US citizen parents and 
born in the land of their Parent's citizenship; that is, US soil.  If one 
parent were a non-citizen, it is clear that the child has to take action at 
his 21st birthday to gain US Citizenship.  His citizenship status before 
turning 21 is in Limbo.  Hence, he is not considered to be a Natural Born 
US Citizen.   You can obfuscate all you want; it is clear bambi is a 
usurper of Power that he is not qualified to assume.


As for your other nonsensical opinions, it is clear that actions were taken 
to contest bambi's status even before the elections.  Justice was denied and 
bambi assumed power.  Even now, all court cases are denied on mere 
technicality.  If peaceful resolution is not allowed by the Shadow 
Government Kabbal, a 2nd American Revolution is needed to throw off this 
corrupt and oppressive kabbal.  Mark my words, Americans are a peace loving 
people, but they will not put up with this trampling of the Constitution for 
long.  70% of Americans believe that Bambi should come clean and present his 
real Vault Birth Certificate.  It puzzles me why he is unwilling to do so. 
And all your BS arguments will not overcome this fact.

PS. And by the way, Snoopes and Factcheck are not the entities tasked to 
authenticate official documents.   LOL

Jojo is stating his personal or collective
opinion as if it were established fact.

From the article, from the Congressional Research Service:

The weight of legal and historical authority indicates that the term 
natural born citizen would mean a person who is entitled to U.S. 
citizenship by birth or at birth, either by being born in the United 
States and under its jurisdiction, even those born to alien parents; by 
being born abroad to U.S. citizen-parents; or by being born in other 
situations meeting legal requirements for U.S. citizenship at birth. Such 
term, however, would not include a person who was not a U.S. citizen by 
birth or at birth, and who was thus born an alien required to go through 
the legal process of naturalization to become a U.S. citizen.[1]


There is no contrary legal authority of any weight.

Attempting to challenge the Presidency through
this means is almost certainly doomed. To
accomplish it with Obama, a whole series of hurdles must be cleared.

1. Establish that the Hawaii Birth Certificate is
fraudulent. A series of speculative how comes
won't cut it. Mere mystery won't cut it. That
birth certificate establishes the legal
situation, until and unless it is *proven* to be
fraudulent. Tough road to hoe. But people who
generate lots of hot air can sometimes convince
others, especially those looking for a reason to
dump Obama, who makes some people uncomfortable.
Maybe it's the cologne he uses. Nah, they haven't
gotten that close to him (fortunately). Must be
something about the way he looks.

Or it's that he's a SOCIALIST COMMUNIST PINKO
MUSLIM. Yeah, Muslim. That's it. Wants to force
decent American women to wear those tents, even
if it's hot. He just pretended to have Bin Laden
taken out, Bin Laden has been taken to a Safe

There are many questions about Obama's past.

It is an indisputable fact that the Long Form Birth Certificate posted on
the whitehouse.gov web site manipulated in photoshop. The moron who created
the PDF forgot to flatten all of the layers, so that anyone could go in an
move important parts of the document around, including the registrar's
stamp. What parts of the document are accurate, and why was it altered at
all? The state of HI uses a number of weasel words to say he was born here
without backing it up with an actual document.

A number of explanations are possible-- when Obama was adopted by his
Indonesian father, the birth certificate may have been modified or altered,
as is often the case with adoptions. The actual BC may have been lost or
destroyed.

I personally doubt Obama was born in Kenya, but Obama is hiding something,
or playing a strange game with millions of taxpayer and campaign dollars.
There have been dozens of lawsuits claiming he may be ineligible that could
be resolved (perhaps) with the presentation of a birth certificate. All
fail due to lack of standing but still require hundreds of hours of court
work.

A US military doctor had questions and tried to assure himself that Obama
was constitutionally eligible to hold office and ended up in Leavenworth...
Poor judgement on his part, but again, easily solved had Obama not played
hide-and-seek with his records.

Of course, Jojo makes a good point that having dual citizenship at birth
would make someone ineligible as Natural Born Citizen, which might
explain O's reluctance to enter evidence into a court. The constitution was
written so that the president could not be a commander from an invading
country or have divided loyalties.

As this author points out, the biggest question is Obama's story of
attending Occidental where he was a self-admitted pot-smoking bad student..
how did he get in? Why does nobody remember him? Who paid for his college?
Was he enrolled as a foreigner? What were his grades?
http://www.theblaze.com/contributions/obama%E2%80%99s-college-classmate-the-obama-scandal-is-at-columbia/

Jed is not the only one who thinks that anyone who doesn't fawn over Obama
is a racist. Let me remind everyone about how most conservatives also
didn't like Carter, Clinton, and many were not fond of GW. We are equal
opportunity bashers of inept leadership and are quick to eat our own. But
Obama does have a long and sordid past with communists (Bill Ayres, Frank
Marshal Davis) and was ranked the most liberal Senator. He is aligned with
the Democratic Socialists of America and their offshoot, the New Party.

This video is interesting, even if only some of the facts presented are
true.. (The title is bogus, the tone silly, and it was created by an
individual, rather than the media, who failed to vet him...)

And a related one about the influential father figures in Obama's life.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOmzTLdr_m4

According to the odds makers, Obama will win the election easily. According
to most polls, Obama is trailing slightly in the swing states.

Trying to determine truth from fiction in Obama's narrative should be the
job of the press and anyone who is interested in presidential history. But
when valid concerns and uncomfortable facts are raised, the press is the
first to scream dog whistle racism..

May we live in interesting times...

As with anything, it depends on what you mean by citizen. Further, 
it is not clear that the Constitutional Rule is subject to 
modification by statute, but it's also obvious that the definition of 
U.S. has shifted because of later events. The rules for *being 
recognized* as a U.S. citizen by virtue of birth are a bit 
complicated, but they are only designed to rule out situations where 
it's not clear what would be equitable.


I.e., a single citizen parent, with a non-citizen other parent, can 
create a marginal situation, and the rules are designed to require a 
showing that the single parent was not only a U.S. citizen, but had a 
real relationship with the U.S., by living here a certain minimum 
time, after 14 years of age. The number of years required changed. 
Presently, it is five years of residence in the U.S. by the 
citizen-parent before the birth, two of which must be after 14. 
Obama's mother would have satisfied that, she was 18.


However, the law at the time of Obama's birth required 10 years total 
and five years after 14. Given that Obama's mother was 18 at his 
birth, if Obama was born outside the U.S., then he'd not have had 
citizenship by right of birth at that time. I'm sure this makes the 
birthers all hot and bothered.


I don't know about the retroactive applicability of the new law. The 
Wikipedia article implies that it was not retroactive, which is a tad 
weird. But sometimes laws are weird.


It's claimed that Obama wasn't born in Hawaii, but in Kenya. This 
creates a problem. I've bought foreign-born children into the U.S. 
You can't just saunter through customs with the kid. You have to show 
documents. In particular, you generally have to show a passport. To 
get a passport, you generally need a birth certificate. So if the 
birth certificate was forged, it would have to have been forged way 
back then, when this was a poor mother, not socially connected.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birther

The Indonesian connection is completely irrelevant. Obama could have 
had some right to be an Indonesian citizen, but I very much doubt 
that his U.S. passport was surrendered or that any act took place 
that would revoke U.S. citizenship.


It's been raised that anyone can get a birth certificate. Sure. 
I've done it, quite a few times. I delivered four of my first five 
children, at home. I filed the papers. They are generally to be filed 
by the one who attends the birth. The law generally requires that 
it be filed within so many days of the birth. I also worked with the 
Arizona Publich Health Department, because we were generally 
assisting parents to give birth at home, and their critical interest 
was that the births be registered, so we agreed to encourage the 
parents to register the births (and to inform the Health Department 
of births). For legal reasons, at that time, our trope was that the 
father, generally, actually delivered the baby. Sometimes so, 
sometimes not. You do what you have to do. Later, we were licensed 
and registration became a binding legal requirement.


The point is that it's filed timely, generally. If that fails, it can 
be registered late, but it must still be signed by the persons 
affirming the facts. The long form Obama birth certificate was signed 
by a physician, presumably the attending physician, I can't read the 
signature, but this could easily be determined who it was. The 
certification shows filing on August 8, 1961, 4 days after the 
certified birth, August 4. That's normal. The information on the 
certificate about parents was certified by the mother's signature on 
August 7. This is all totally normal.


There is other evidence of the birth at that time. See the Wikipedia 
article. The denial of that certificate is totally nuts, wishful 
thinking or smoke-screen.


By the way, birth announcements in newspapers are also often based on 
information provided, usually from the parents, but grandparents 
could do it. What information like that shows is that the claim of 
Hawaiian birth existed immediately. Not later. In this case, though, 
it appears that the listings of births came from the Health Department.


This is what happens when people believe that something is wrong 
and then go searching for it. They find facts to question or 
assert, creating a new story that satisfies their itch.


As to the alleged goal of the grandparents to make Obama a citizen, 
sure. However, consider their position at the time. This would have 
required felonies, forging birth certificates is a serious crime. 
Most people couldn't pull it off. This theory requires that the 
pregnant mother travel to Kenya. And then come back with the baby, 
and a birth certificate would be needed for a passport to come back 
in. You also

done it, quite a few times. I delivered four of my first five children, at 
home. I filed the papers. They are generally to be filed by the one who 
attends the birth. The law generally requires that it be filed within so 
many days of the birth. I also worked with the Arizona Publich Health 
Department, because we were generally assisting parents to give birth at 
home, and their critical interest was that the births be registered, so we 
agreed to encourage the parents to register the births (and to inform the 
Health Department of births). For legal reasons, at that time, our trope 
was that the father, generally, actually delivered the baby. Sometimes so, 
sometimes not. You do what you have to do. Later, we were licensed and 
registration became a binding legal requirement.


The point is that it's filed timely, generally. If that fails, it can be 
registered late, but it must still be signed by the persons affirming the 
facts. The long form Obama birth certificate was signed by a physician, 
presumably the attending physician, I can't read the signature, but this 
could easily be determined who it was. The certification shows filing on 
August 8, 1961, 4 days after the certified birth, August 4. That's normal. 
The information on the certificate about parents was certified by the 
mother's signature on August 7. This is all totally normal.


There is other evidence of the birth at that time. See the Wikipedia 
article. The denial of that certificate is totally nuts, wishful thinking 
or smoke-screen.


By the way, birth announcements in newspapers are also often based on 
information provided, usually from the parents, but grandparents could do 
it. What information like that shows is that the claim of Hawaiian birth

those are in an archive somewhere. Obama would not have access to

Why should he? The signed, attested documents, executed under laws 
that would penalize false statements, are legally the strongest

yeah. Both.

  They just don't know or they just don't care. Well, they just 
underestimated Americans, cause 70% are demanding that bambi comes 
clean and present his real Vault Birth Certificate.


Now, Dave was not exactly correct. Substantially, if one has an 
American citizen mother, one is a natural born citizen (by right of 
birth), but there are exceptions. They have changed over the years. 
According to the law at the time of Obama's birth, his mother would 
have had to have resided in the U.S. for five years at some point 
after turning 14. Since she was three months shy of 19 at the time of 
the birth, Obama would not have been qualified as natural born under 
that law. The law was changed, it's now two years. Easily qualified.


It's not clear that legislation that establishes citizenship rights 
can alter the meaning of the Constitutional provision. But a contrary 
opinion leads to even worse problems.


Which law applies? I don't know and don't care, because Obama was 
born in Hawaii, that is legally certain at this point.


Prove the documents are forgeries, with evidence that would stand up 
in court, or shut up. You just make yourself look like an idiot.


If the documents are forgeries, apparently they are very old

 they added the requirement
of being 'natural born' and for very specific reasons which have been
explained already.

That is the central issue at hand, and I will not go into it any further
here, as I feel in this case one must decide for him/herself.  Most have
already decided and nothing will change their minds, however, for those who
want to research this further, and feel that they understand the history and
legal foundations as best as possible, I will suggest the following website:

http://people.mags.net/tonchen/birthers.htm

It is one of the most thoroughly researched websites which explanations the
history, the court cases, and legal thinking on the issue... why do I not
simply refer to a US SupCt case here?  Because the SCOTUS has NOT ruled on
the legal definition of 'natural born citizen'!  Not yet anyway... read and
decide for yourself.

As an interesting side-story, I remember looking at an early draft of the
Massachusetts Constitution, and it *specifically forbid attorneys from
running for any elected office*.  That clause never made it past a few
drafts!  I don't know what percentage of Congressmen and Senators are
lawyers, but it wouldn't surprise me if it was well above 50%.  If all the
states had adopted that rule in their own Constitutions, I don't think we'd
be in the mess we're in now...

This is made up. The bulk of interpretation of natural born US citizen 
is citizenship by right of birth, as distinct from later actions. That is, 
if the person can, merely by showing the circumstances of birth, establish 
citizenship, they are natural born. The provision, as interpreted, 
distinguishes between natural birth citizenship and naturalized or adopted 
citizenship.


My two youngest daughters are U.S. citizens, but not by right of birth, it 
was through later adoption and legal admission into the U.S. That's not by 
right of birth.


It is correct that if Obama had been born elsewhere, to his mother married 
to a British citizen, as he was at the time, he'd not have been a natural 
born citizen by the laws regarding citizenship at that time. He was born 
about three months too early, his mother was only 18, and had not lived in 
the U.S. for five years after age 14. Three months later, she had. This, 
however, is a complexity not contemplated in the Constitution and I would 
not consider the matter determined until it was litigated.


It could be argued, indeed, that the Constitutional provision refers only 
to a very narrow definition of natural born, though this, itself, leads 
to some severe interpretive problems. I doubt a court would adopt that. So 
far, it hasn't, and natural born citizen has clearly meant anyone born in 
the U.S., citizenship by right of birth location, but also those whose 
parents are citizens, both parents, and it is only when it is only one 
parent that the rules get complicated.


It's all moot. Obama was born in Hawaii, as a legal fact. Overturning that 
legal fact would be extremely difficult, and, so far, it looks like 
attempts to do it have been based on forged documents and pure innuendo 
and speculation.


I got an email, for example, that claimed the hospital on the long form 
birth certificate didn't exist at the time of the birth. That demonstrates 
just how wrong one can be by doing a little internet searching and jumping 
to conclusions. Aha! Look at this! It says right here:


Name of the Hospital Obama was supposedly born at should have been 
Kauikeolani Children's Hospital until 1978. Then they merged with the 
Kapi'olani Maternity Home in 1978 and became Kapi'olani Medical Center for 
Women  Children.



Of course, none of those are the name of the hospital on the birth 
certificate. It says Kapiolani Maternal and Gynecological Hospital. In 
fact reading the alleged fact, I don't know which institution Obama was 
born in. Could have been the Children's Hospital or the Maternity Home. 
And either one could use the name Kapiolani Maternal and Gynecological 
Hospital for the maternity unit. Someone jumped to conclusions.


The obvious way to test this: look for other birth certificates from the 
same period with the same name.


It's been done.

http://nicedeb.wordpress.com/2011/04/28/yes-there-was-a-kapiolani-maternity-gynecological-hospital-in-1961/

I really want to point to the strong belief behind these posts. It's like 
the pseudoskepticism that has afflicted cold fusion. No matter what 
evidence is shown, there is always an objection. The goal posts move. It's 
obvious that the belief is fixed.


It's the same with other issues. Once one buys that the Bible is not only 
the True Word of God, but also that one is correctly interpreting it 
(that's ego and attachment), everything that appears to be different --  
such as evolution -- *must* be false. So one searches for reasons why it's 
false, so as to appear rational.


As to real faith, it doesn't look like that. One would have no certainty, 
with real faith, that others are wrong. One would be unmoved by 
disagreement, one would have no problem considering what others mean, and 
faith is a condition of the heart, not a set of texts.


Many people are unaware of this salient requirement.  To them a US citizen 
is qualified automatically to be POTUS.  That is not what the Constitution 
says:  In order for one to be qualifed, one needs to be a Natural Born US 
Citizen.

 discarded. But they might exist, in old charts, if those are in an archive
 somewhere. Obama would not have access to them, not directly. But I suppose
 he could ask.

 Why should he? The signed, attested documents, executed under laws that
 would penalize false statements, are legally the strongest documents that
 exist. Old notes would not supersede them, because notes can be wrong and
 nobody has signed them as being true.

 I'm starting to doubt that Jojo is serious. This could merely be trolling.

Straw Man argument.

First, the Hawaii authorities are the ones which automatically post all births 
in the newspaper.  During that time, anyone can report a birth to Hawaii 
authorities even if the birth did not physically occur in Hawaii.   Hawaii 
authorities did not have to verify the reported birth.  Funny though cause that 
address belongs to the grandparents, not bambi's parents.

Second, there is no need to argue that his grandparents secretly conspired to 
make him a citizen because they knew he was going to be president.  That's a 
straw man.   His grandparents were not dumb and knew the benefits of US 
citizenship.  No conspiracy to be POTUS has to be invoked, only that they want 
their grandchild to be a US citizen is good enough a reason.



But just give me a simple explanation why his Hawaii Vault BC is still secret.  
He can end this Birther conspiracy movement with a single phone call to release 
his vault BC.  Why hasn't he done it?  All your eloquent reasons will not

Good debate!  This is what freedom of speech is all about.

 

His grandparents were not dumb and knew the benefits of US citizenship.  No
conspiracy to be POTUS has to be invoked, only that they want their
grandchild to be a US citizen is good enough a reason.

 

Agreed.   His mother was Caucasian and from the US (she was born here), so
it certainly is likely that *if* she was returning  to the USA
*permanently*, and with baby Barack, she would have wanted for him to be a
U.S. Citizen.  If I was a parent in that situation, I sure as heck would. 

 

I'm sure his parents were NOT thinking anything about their son being POTUS
someday, obviously, but as explained, there is NO need to bring up the in
case he wanted to become President someday argument. there is reason enough
by just coming here.

 

If that was you bringing in your newborn, would you not want your child to
be a US citizen?

 

I must confess, I have only looked at a limited amount of the arguments and

Michele, a Natural Born US citizen must fulfill 2 things:

1.  Must be born to two US citizen parents.
2.  Must be born in US soil.

Surely bambi does not qualify for number 1.  His alleged father was not a US

Second, there is significant question as to where he was actually born.  He

When is US soil US soil?

Would a person be ineligible if the soil he was born on only became US
soil after the person's birth?
And what if the soil ceased being US soil after he was born?

Instead of a simplistic rule, there should be some meaningful criteria
for deciding eligibility.

Re: [Vo]:Blather in the mass media makes scientists think we are crazy

2012-08-08 Thread hellokevin

Jojo:
 
I never thought I'd see 0bama's birth certificate debated here on Vortex.  
You've made it a fascinating place to visit for more than one reason.  
 
Regarding #2, who can blame 0bama for holding back his birth certificate when 
he hasn't been forced to do so?  This begs the question of who forces him to do 
so...
 
Regarding #1, it seems so simple.  It was the responsibility of the Supreme 
Court of the US to determine his eligibility, per the 20th amendment:  
 
 
Section 3. If, at the time fixed for the beginning of the term of the 
President, the President elect shall have died, the Vice President elect shall 
become President. If a President shall not have been chosen before the time 
fixed for the beginning of his term, or if the President elect shall have 
failed to qualify, then the Vice President elect shall act as President until a 
President shall have qualified; and the Congress may by law provide for the 
case wherein neither a President elect nor a Vice President elect shall have 
qualified, declaring who shall then act as President, or the manner in which 
one who is to act shall be selected, and such person shall act accordingly 
until a President or Vice President shall have qualified.
 
Notice that the order of events is spelled out: if the President elect shall 
have failed to qualify. That means the qualification takes place AFTER the 
General Public votes, and even AFTER the Electoral College. It also shows 
explicitly that the ELECTION RESULTS ARE SUBORDINATE TO QUALIFICATION. 
Further resources and copies of the constitution: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twentieth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution
 
http://www.usconstitution.net/const.html 
 
It is the US Supreme Court who threw our republic into this constitutional 
tailspin.  0bama did what any selfish politician would do.  But Supreme Court 
members are given lifetime appointments so they can  be free from the political 
ramifications of their decisions.  Their JOB is to uphold the constitution.  
Period.  They didn't do it.  They threw this republic down the drain so that 
they could enjoy warm smiles at Washington DC cocktail parties.  
 
You may enjoy this birth certificate thread I started on Intrade.  It is the 
most-read thread in Intrade's  history.    In particular, I wonder how you 
would answer the hypotheticals I asked about Caesar crossing the Rubicon?

Michele, a Natural Born US citizen must fulfill 2 things:

1.  Must be born to two US citizen parents.
2.  Must be born in US soil.

Surely bambi does not qualify for number 1.  His alleged father was not a US 
citizen

Second, there is significant question as to where he was actually born.  He 
refuses to release his original vault BC.  All we have is a poorly 
photoshopped copy of his BC, which is surely a fake.

That is incorrect Ron.  A child of one US citizen does not automatically 
become a US citizen.  He has to choose which parent's  citizenship he wants 
when he reaches 21.  Besides, Stanley Ann Dunham was too young to have 
conferred US citizenship to Bambi when he was born.  And a Dual Citizen is 
classified automatically as NOT a Natural-Born US Citizen.


A child born out of 2 US citizens but born out of US soil, can be a US 
citizen but not a Natural-Born US Citizen


A child born in US soil, but to non-US citizens, may become a US citizen but 
not a Natural-Born US Citizen.


A child born in US soil, but to only 1 US citizen parent, must choose which 
citizenship he wants when he reaches 21.  He may choose both and become a 
Dual Citizen, but he is certainly NOT a Natural-Born US citizen.


But mere US citizenship does not qualify one to be president.  He has to be 
Natural-Born US citizen.  Which means a child of 2 US citizens and born on 
US soil.


One theory says that a Natural Born US Citizen is one wherein he does not 
have to take any special action to get his US citizenship.  If Bambi has 
to choose US Citizenship, then he is automatically not a Natural-Born US 
citizen.  And this would be the case with Bambi, because he was an 
Indonesian Citizen when he was a child.  But since, he was not yet 21 at 
that time, he did not have to make a specific choice.  When he reached 21, 
he should have made that choice.  If he did not, then he is still an Illegal 
Alien in this country.  But none of this can be resolved because 
criminal-in-chief has a gag order on all agencies and private entities to 
keep his records secret.  Question is, WHY?

No birth certificate ever made a man or woman what they are today. It's what
they do with their life after they are born that matters.

 

Would birther's be so much in a tizzy if Obama had been white?

 

Would any of these birthers have really cared that much about the status of
Obama's birth certificate?

 

Pardon the foul language that is about to come out of my mouth, but I wish
birthers would just be honest with themselves and call a spade a spade. It
is draining to incessantly have to listen to individuals who call themselves
god fearing Americans who don't even know they are still in the closet on
this matter.

 

The history book will have a lot to say about this unfortunate incident, and
it will not be good: A group of so-called god-fearing Americans hid their
bigotry behind a constitutional premise that Obama's birth certificate was

On the same vein, I think individuals like Arnold Schwarzenegger ought to

Ah, playing the race card again.  I despise Donkeykong not because he's black 
but because he is a liberal communist who wants to destroy America.  For your 
information, my favorite candidate was Alan Keyes not because he is black, but 
because of his strong conservative Christian Values.  Only liberals like you 
would be so naive to think that people vote based on the color of their skin.  
You liberals are the most racists people ever.

Birthers are tizzy about Donkeykong's birth certificate because there is such a 
thing as the Constitution in this country.  The Constitution may not matter to 
you liberal commies, but it matters to Americans who love their democratic and 
free country and those who believe in the rule of law.

I am being honest with myself.  I do not despise Donkeykong because he is 
black.  God is my witness.  Put Alan Keyes on the ballot and I will show you 
how I vote with my ballot as well as with my money.  Mike Huckabee was the only 
candidate I ever gave money to, and Alan Keyes will receive from me the maximum 
amount of contribution.

When liberal commies like you have nothing else to defend the criminal actions 
of Donkeykong, you resort to this race card.

No, I do not think Arnold Swartzenegger should have the right to run for 
president.  He is not qualified, in the same way the Donkeykong is NOT 
qualified.  So you think Donkeykong should not have to prove his Natural Born 
Citizenship status?   why let's just use that Constitution as toilet paper, 
shall we?

Sometimes, it just puzzles me how liberals think, and you've exemplified this 
quintessential liberal philosophy with this post.

Jojo, please hold down the attacks upon others in the vortex.  You make many 
good points within your discussion, but this type of name calling and attacks 
tend to turn off some of us.

Steven is a well respected member of the group that has a right to his opinions

effecting your position is unwarranted and I hope will not be brought up again.

Ah, playing the race card again.  I despise Donkeykong not because he's black 
but because he is a liberal communist who wants to destroy America.  For your 
information, my favorite candidate was Alan Keyes not because he is black, but 
because of his strong conservative Christian Values.  Only liberals like you 
would be so naive to think that people vote based on the color of their skin.  
You liberals are the most racists people ever.
 
Birthers are tizzy about Donkeykong's birth certificate because there is such a 
thing as the Constitution in this country.  The Constitution may not matter to 
you liberal commies, but it matters to Americans who love their democratic and 
free country and those who believe in the rule of law.
 
I am being honest with myself.  I do not despise Donkeykong because he is 
black.  God is my witness.  Put Alan Keyes on the ballot and I will show you 
how I vote with my ballot as well as with my money.  Mike Huckabee was the only 
candidate I ever gave money to, and Alan Keyes will receive from me the maximum 
amount of contribution.
 
When liberal commies like you have nothing else to defend the criminal actions 
of Donkeykong, you resort to this race card.
 
No, I do not think Arnold Swartzenegger should have the right to run for 
president.  He is not qualified, in the same way the Donkeykong is NOT 
qualified.  So you think Donkeykong should not have to prove his Natural Born 
Citizenship status?   why let's just use that Constitution as toilet paper, 
shall we?
 
Sometimes, it just puzzles me how liberals think, and you've exemplified this 
quintessential liberal philosophy with this post.

And if you don't, that only serves to prove what I have been saying all

The absurdity that any black ancestor makes one black is a residue of the

conservative viewpoint as racist is offensive, and typical of the far left.
Political Correctness is being used to squelch political debate, and the

I am aware of the hidden meaning of what you are saying here so don't think 
it went pass me.


Yes, you are right. Darwinian Evolution has very little to do with actual 
physics for which this forum is dedicated to.  But a Darwinian world view 
nonetheless has huge influences on how physicists interpret data.


To illustrate, let me bring up an example.  The interpretation of the 
meaning of the Red shift.  Red shift has always been taken to mean that 
far objects are receding from us.  This interpretation is a result of a 
Darwinian world view of a naturalistic process; for a universe that just 
came into being without a creator, (ie Big Bang, inflation, dark matter and 
dark energy).  This interpretation is in fact not the only one.


Another explanation is that of a change in the inherenct atomic processes 
that causes these red shifts.  Many have speculated that these same process 
are ZPE-based and is responsible for a whole range of anomalous observations 
like the apparent slowing down of the speed of light, the experimental 
divergence of the measured constants influencing the Planck length and the 
phenomena of Quantized Red Shifts.  A ZPE-based interpretation connotes a 
possibility of a creator upholding all things and manifesting itself as 
ZPE.  A mere change of world view is enough to influence a physicist on 
which explanation he might favor.


So, in fact, Darwinian paradigm has more influence in many fields of science 
than you presuppose.

an ape, not a black person.  How can that be racist when ape is not a race.

PS.  But based on the suggestion of one who I have growing respect for, I will 
not use Donkey Kong anymore.  From now on, I will refer to him as

In fact, the conspiracy would need to be even deeper than our colleagues
realized. In late July, a researcher looking to dig up dirt on Obama
instead found a birth announcement that had been published in the Honolulu
Advertiser on Sunday, Aug. 13, 1961:

Of course, it’s distantly possible that Obama’s grandparents may have
planted the announcement just in case their grandson needed to prove his
U.S. citizenship in order to run for president someday.

[Vo]:Blather in the mass media makes scientists think we are crazy

2012-08-06 Thread Jed Rothwell
I do not mean to beat a dead horse, but mass media blather causes more harm
than you might realize. It destroys the credibility of researchers. The
problem is, professionals often read the mass media account and assume it
is an accurate report of what the researchers said. Take this latest
example:

. . . from the thousands of experiments performed over the last few
decades it seems that there are various reactions that output more energy
than is put into them . . .

Imagine you are a scientist or an engineer. You know nothing about cold
fusion. You have not read any papers. You read Gibbs, and you think to
yourself:

Those cold fusion 'researchers' must be a gang of idiots. They think that
getting more energy out than in proves the effect is nuclear?!? What
amateurs. They must be tin-foil helmeted high-school dropouts.

Mass media articles about technology sometimes have mix-ups such as
confusing power and energy (watts and watt-hours). An educated reader can
usually sort this out. She can recreate in her mind what the reporter
actually heard from the researcher. In this case, we know that Gibbs did
not hear anything. He made it up! No cold fusion researcher would say: we
are getting more out than we are putting in, so we know this is real.

Every article by Gibbs has mistakes like that, as do the ones in the
Scientific American. Anyone who believes Sci. Am. would surely dismiss cold
fusion:

http://lenr-canr.org/wordpress/?p=294

Needless to say, Wikipedia is a compendium of chaos, confusion, and lies.
When I last checked a few years ago, every substantive assertion in it was
incorrect. Most of them are about things like recombination that have been
circulating endlessly since 1989. Trying to kill these things off is like
trying to quell birther rumors that Obama was not born in Hawaii.

The mass media and Wikipedia is where people go first, these days. People
who go to these sources to learn about cold fusion will get the impression
that cold fusion scientists are lunatics. I know I would. That is why mass
media reports written by ignorant people are worse than no reports at all.

It's no longer a conspiracy from the right when 70% of Americans feel he should 
present it, andobama himself refuses to release his birth certificate.  I 
talking about the real one, not the photoshoped version he's been parotting to 
gullible people like you and Jed.

Goodness, every American is required to present his real Birth Certificate for 
something as mundane as a Driver's License and yet Bambi thinks he is above the 
law and hides his, and you people think that is normal and give him a pass.  

Looks like you and Jed are more gullible and uninformed than I give you credit

The solution to your frustrations is easy. In six months when the papp
engine is for sale on the market, we all here will contribute a nominal
amount to motivate the purchase of a Papp engine together with its
installation in your car by an auto customizer.

You are rich by your own admission and such things are possible for you.

You can then take Gibbs for a ride and let him make sure there is no gas
tank to be found in your new ride.

After his long drive with you, a time of bonding and joking and good
comradeship, if he still maintains his current position, then you will
certainly know his ulterior motives for who could possibly ignore such a
strong proof of concept.

Be patient, the time of reckoning for Gibbs grows short together with your
ultimate vindication.
Gibbs will then be forced to eat his words along with the many others who
will ride with you, so they all best stay hungry.
