American politicians and the media are
lying to the American people. They do so because they hope that their
complicity in the greatest fraud in U.S. history will be overtaken by
events, that is, the 2012 election. It is the Big Stall to cover up the
Big Lie.
In the Russian language there is a term
called "vranyo." It is loosely defined as telling a white lie or a
semi-truth. It may contain fantasy or involve the suppression of
unpleasant parts of the truth.
In regard to Obama's ineligibility and
his alleged felonies, politicians and the media expect the American
people to respond in this way:
"You know that you are lying, I know
that you are lying, and you know that I know that you are lying, but we
both smile and nod in agreement."
Barack Obama, according to Article II,
Section I, Clause 5 of the U. S. Constitution, is an illegal President.
The law requires a candidate for the Presidency to be a "natural born
citizen," that is, a second generation American, a U.S. citizen, whose
parents were also U.S. citizens at the time of the candidate's birth.
Obama's father was a citizen of Kenya
and a British subject at the time of his birth, which made him forever
ineligible for the Presidency. For the same reason, Florida Republican
Senator Marco Rubio is ineligible for the Presidency and Vice Presidency
because his parents were Cuban citizens, not U.S. citizens at the time
of his birth.
There is no ambiguity, although those who wish to undermine the Constitution would like the American people to think otherwise.
The difference
between "citizen," that is, born in the U.S. and "natural born citizen"
has been clear since the adoption of the U.S. Constitution on September
17, 1787.
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 states:
"No Person except a natural born
Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States at the time of the Adoption
of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President;
neither shall any person be eligible to that Office who shall not have
attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a
Resident within the United States."
A first draft of what would become
Article II, Section 1, Clause 5, submitted by Alexander Hamilton to the
Constitutional Convention on June 18, 1787 stated:
"No person shall be eligible to the
office of President of the United States unless he be now a Citizen of
one of the States, or hereafter be born a Citizen of the United States."
Fearing foreign influence on a future
President and Commander in Chief of the American military, the future
first U.S. Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, on July 25, 1787, asked the
convention presiding officer George Washington to strengthen the
requirements for the Presidency:
"Permit me to hint, whether it would be
wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of
Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to
declare expressly that the Command in Chief of the American army shall
not be given to nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen."
The term "or a Citizen of the United
States at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution" referred to
loyal Americans who lived in the thirteen colonies at the time of the
Revolutionary War, thus establishing the first generation of United
States "citizens," upon which future "natural born" citizens would be
created. The Founders, under Article II, allowed these original U.S.
citizens to be eligible for the Presidency.
As understood by the Founders and as
applied to the U.S. Constitution, the term "natural born citizen"
derived its meaning less from English common law, than from the
codification of natural law described by Emerich de Vattel in his 1758
book "The Law of Nations."
They knew
from reading Vattel that a "natural born citizen" had a different
standard from just "citizen," for he or she was a child born in the
country to two citizen parents (Vattel, Section 212 in original French
and English translation).
That is the definition of a "natural
born citizen," as recognized by numerous U.S. Supreme Court and lower
court decisions (The Venus, 12U.S. 253(1814), Shanks v. Dupont, 28 U.S.
242 (1830), Scott v. Sandford, 60 U.S. 393 (1856), Minor v. Happersett,
88 U.S. 162 (1875) , Ex parte Reynolds, 20 F. Cas. 582 (C.C.W.D. Ark
1879), United States v. Ward, 42 F. 320 (1890); Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S.
649 (1898), Ludlam, Excutrix, & c., v. Ludlam, 26 N.Y. 356 (1863)
and more) and the framers of the Civil Rights Act of 1866, the 14th
Amendment, the Naturalization Act of 1795, 1798, 1802, 1885, and our
modern 8 U.S.C. Sec. 1401.
There are historical arguments
too numerous to include in a short article, which explain why the
definition of "natural born subject," as found in the English common
law, was not used as the basis of "natural born citizen" in the U.S.
Constitution because Great Britain was a monarchy and the new nation was
a constitutional republic.
Legal precedent and interpretation leave no doubt regarding the meaning of "natural born citizen."
The Venus, 12 U.S. 8 Cranch 253 253 (1814)
"The citizens are the members of the
civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to
its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives
or indigenes are those born in the country of parents who are citizens."
Dred Scott v. Sandford, 60 U.S. 393 (1857)
"The citizens are the members of the
civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to
its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives,
or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who
are citizens."
John Bingham, father of the 14th
Amendment, which gave citizenship to American slaves after the Civil
War, stated on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives in 1862:
"All from other lands, who by the terms
of [congressional] laws and a compliance with their provisions become
naturalized, are adopted citizens of the United States; all other
persons born within the Republic, of parents owing allegiance to no
other sovereignty, are natural born citizens."
In 1866, Bingham also stated on the House floor:
"Every human being born within the
jurisdiction of the United States of parents not owing allegiance to any
foreign sovereignty is, in the language of your Constitution itself, a
natural born citizen."
Minor v. Happersett , 88 U.S. 162 (1875)
"The Constitution does not in words say
who shall be natural-born citizens. Resort must be had elsewhere to
ascertain that. At common law, with the nomenclature of which the
framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never doubted that all
children born in a country of parents who were its citizens became
themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were natives or
natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or foreigners. Some
authorities go further and include as citizens children born within the
jurisdiction without reference to the citizenship of their parents. As
to this class there have been doubts, but never as to the first."
United States v. Wong Kim Ark, 169 U.S. 649 (1898)
"At common law, with the nomenclature of
which the framers of the Constitution were familiar, it was never
doubted that all children, born in a country of parents who were its
citizens, became themselves, upon their birth, citizens also. These were
natives, or natural-born citizens, as distinguished from aliens or
foreigners."
In the first of many recent efforts to
amend the Constitutional requirement of "natural born" citizenship,
Democrat House Rep. Jonathon B. Bingham introduced House Joint
Resolution 33 (1975), which clearly recognized the distinction between
"citizen" and "natural born citizen."
"Provides that a citizen of the United
States otherwise eligible to hold the Office of President shall not be
ineligible because such citizen is not a natural born citizen."
In a September 2008 Michigan Law Review
article entitled "Originalism and the Natural Born Citizen Clause,"
Lawrence B. Solum, then John E. Cribbet Professor of Law at the
University of Illinois College of Law, wrote:
"What was the original public meaning of
the phrase that establishes the eligibility for the office of President
of the United States? There is general agreement on the core of its
meaning. Anyone born on American soil whose parents are citizens of the
United States is a natural born citizen."
If you are unwilling to accept the
exhaustive legal documentation regarding the true meaning of "natural
born" citizenship, you may also try the common sense question:
Why has every President since Martin van
Buren been a second generation American except Obama and Chester A.
Arthur, who also lied about his personal history?
According to his own autobiography
"Dreams from My Father," Barack Obama is not a "natural born citizen"
and, therefore, is an illegal President. An imposter to the very highest level! Every law that he has signed
and every appointment that he has made is invalid.
It is time has come for us to take back our country!
0bama is now engaged openly in creating a new form of dictatorship, as he violates and ignores the US Constitution, aided by the news and entertainment media elite who support him, and who carefully created and protect his false image. 0bama is the ultimate creation of the leftist progressive movement in America.
0bama truly cares nothing for America, or Americans, as he seeks to remain in power only to bring about the progressive socialist utopia both he and his supporters absolutely crave.
It is also HIGHLY SUSPECT to me that Congress (translation: liberal Dems and possibly RINOs) made several attempts to change or remove the natural born citizenship clause PRIOR to 0bama's presidential campaign.
Those factors, combined with all the secrecy and smoke and mirrors used by 0bama and his cohorts makes his eligibilty questionable at best.
Unfortunately, their tactic of dodging the issue until after the November elections will most likely succeed.
This whole place is out of order.
Give 'em the good old soap suds enema!!!!
equivalent of that for a colonoscopy. It was a LOT OF FUN!!! NOT!!!!
be; basically "slept" through the whole thing. But the prep for it was
definitely no fun.
