"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."

NOTE FOR THOSE WITH IMPAIRED READING COMPREHENSION: Congress says that Natural Born Citizens include "even those born to alien parents"!
Further, the State of Hawaii already confirmed Obama is a Natural Born Citizen (see http://www.usatoday.com/news/... ), and confirmed that both the short and long form certificates are authentic (see http://hawaii.gov/health/vita... ) .

Hawaii Gov. Lingle answers the birthers, who remain surprisingly unconvinced
Via Joe Kovacs, we have a fresh answer to the birthers from Hawaii Gov. Linda Lingle (R), given to -- of all people -- former Michael Jackson confidante Rabbi Shmuley Boteach. The comments come around 77 minutes into this interview, after Boteach asks Lingle about legislation that would protect state employees from having to answer the endless questions about President Obama's birth certificate.
"You know, during the campaign of 2008, I was actually in the mainland campaigning for Sen. McCain. This issue kept coming up so much in the campaign, and again I think it's one of those issues that is simply a distraction from the more critical issues that are facing the country. And so I had my health director, who is a physician by background, go personally view the birth certificate in the birth records of the Department of Health, and we issued a news release at that time saying that the president was, in fact, born at Kapi'olani Hospital in Honolulu, Hawaii. And that's just a fact. And yet people continue to call up and e-mail and want to make it an issue. And I think it's, again, a horrible distraction for the country by those people who continue this. ... It's been established. He was born here."

The "faked" birth certificate is a delusion, straight out of Right-Wing Fantasyland. Even Fox News reports expert opinion that the BC is authentic. See: http://www.foxnews.com/politi... ).
NOTE: Fox's expert subsequently took issue with Fox's "authentic" claim, and posted “In my humble opinion, what I see about how the PDF is built does not prove any falsification. If there was tampering, we must look elsewhere and not how the PDF was created.” ( http://www.wnd.com/2011/06/31... ) Tremblay's double negative ("does not prove any falsification") may be reasonably interpreted as an endorsement.
Coupled with a similar opinion from The National Review ( http://www.nationalreview.com... ), which also found no evidence of falsification, the consensus from leading conservative media is irrefutable.
Birther inability to recognize this authenticity suggests they are schizophrenic. Their belief in a grand conspiracy to foist an ineligible Obama upon the nation suggests they are paranoid. Such paranoid schizophrenia is typical among the deluded denizens of Right-Wing Fantasyland (see http://kaleokualoha2878577.ne... ).
The fact that ALL leading conservatives reject Birtherism indicates that Birthers are on the lunatic fringe, along with Truthers, Holocaust & AGW Deniers, and the Flat Earth Society.

Look it up.
You birthers get tiresome.
When HRC ran against Obama they had to vet him. Do you think for ONE SECOND the Clinton's would have let him slip through? NO WAY..Hillary thought for sure she was going to be the 1st female president, do you honestly believe if there was something on Obama she wouldn't use it? Give me a break... and when Obama got the nomination do you honestly believe the GOP didn't vet him? LMAO.. the only people saying he wasn't vetted was the nuts on the right, that includes Fox News. Maybe you should read and watch MORE then right-wing lunacy. News papers vetted him as well... do some research and you'll figure it out!

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll
Sunday, August 19, 2012
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Sunday shows President Obama attracting support from 45% of voters nationwide, while Mitt Romney earns the vote from 43%. Five percent (5%) prefer some other candidate, and seven percent (7%) are undecided.
This is the lowest level of support for Romney since March. So far, in the month of August, support for both Romney and Obama has stayed in a very narrow range between 43% and 47%. See daily tracking history.

In actuality, now might be the best time to bet on Romney to win President simply because of his odds and where he currently stands. If the odds were much lower, it would probably be too risky to wager anything on it. But, right now they're still at the point of being possible and profitable which is what you should look for.
