I thought that since his mother was an American citizen then he automatically was. Is this not the way it pans out? Does the location of birth outside of the USA make one a non citizen?

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 evidence about the whole issue, so am on the fence so far… perhaps after the next election we’ll find out? Or not… -Mark From: Jojo Jaro [mailto:jth...@hotmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2012 11:02 PM To: vortex-l@eskimo.com Subject: Re: [Vo]:Blather in the mass media makes scientists think we are crazy 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 overcome this simple fact. Jojo
