   Watching the campaign for president it is clear that this birth certificate spoof is an underground smear attempt. Looking back through the generations for some constitutional fragment that somehow will discredit the president, Republicans sure are jealous, they have nothing what so ever to offer but the hole they dig themselves, instead of seriously attending to true issues of governance. In the end all this pathetic slander that spilled out on this site today will only alienate the supposed benefactors of this gross attack. This site is available for the world to see. It is the partners of America; it is America’s allies that will see this attack for what it is. A feeble attack against the President, an attack against a President that brought the ability of open governance and respect for all humanity to the world stage like no other leader before. The 21st century needed to leave disgraceful behaviour in problem solving behind and start behaving like the future generations of citizen’s matter. Today the single phrase wrapped in slander and disrespect demonstrates that the right choice was made on Election Day.

   Every American Taxpayer has a right to see the long form birth certificate of all presidential candidates.

   President Obama rightly campaiged for openness and transparency in government and politics, shouting we need change from the rooftops.

   He stated that he would be different from the Bush Republicans who were honest and open.

   Since then he has spent hundreds of thousands of public donations to avoid showing his long form birth certificate to the people of the USA.

   Until he shows his Long Form Birth certificate he comes across as a Liar and a fraud, hence the growing public agitation over the issue.

   Its a matter of integrity and honestly over hypocrisy.

   Senator McCain was born in 1936 in the Canal Zone to U.S. citizen parents. The Canal Zone was territory controlled by the United States, but it was not incorporated into the Union. As requested by Senator McCain's campaign, distinguished constitutional lawyers Laurence Tribe and Theodore Olson examined the law and issued a detailed opinion offering two reasons that Senator McCain was a natural born citizen. Neither is sound under current law. The Tribe-Olson Opinion suggests that the Canal Zone, then under exclusive U.S. jurisdiction, may have been covered by the Fourteenth Amendment's grant of citizenship to "all persons born . . . in the United States." However, in the Insular Cases, the Supreme Court held that "unincorporated territories" were not part of the United States for constitutional purposes. Accordingly, many decisions hold that persons born in unincorporated territories are not Fourteenth Amendment citizens. The Tribe-Olson Opinion also suggests that Senator McCain obtained citizenship by statute. However, the only statute in effect in 1936 did not cover the Canal Zone. Recognizing the gap, in 1937, Congress passed a citizenship law applicable only to the Canal Zone, granting Senator McCain citizenship, but eleven months too late for him to be a citizen at birth. Because Senator John McCain was not a citizen at birth, he is not a "natural born Citizen" and thus is not "eligible to the Office of President" under the Constitution

   StrangeTruth

   Absolutely correct!

   Obama is suspected to be Kenyan by birth.

   His Kenyan paternal grandmother Sarah Hussein Obama, has stated that she was present at the hospital when he was born in Mombasa, Kenya. Sworn affidavits attesting to this exist for multiple persons, including Bishop Ron McRae of The Anabaptists Churches of North America and Kweli Shuhubia, an ordained minister for the gospel of Jesus Christ and a native Kenyan evangelist who was present serving as translator when Sarah Obama voluntarily and knowingly participated in a recorded conversation about her grandson Barack Hussein Obama II. Bishop McRae asked Sarah Obama specifically, “Were you present when your grandson Barack Obama was born in Kenya” This was asked to her in translation twice, and both times she specifically replied “Yes”.

   In addition the Kenyan Ambassador to the U.S., his Excellency Peter Ogengo admitted during a live radio interview that Obama was born in Kenya and that the location of his birth is "already an attraction" and that a monument may be built there by the government. Ambassador Ogengo soon afterward retracted his live statement, possibly under duress from Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga, who claims to be Obama's cousin

   Raila Odinga is infamous for causing violent political unrest following the December 2007 presidential elections in Kenya, resulting in approximately 1,500 deaths and over a half million people displaced by the election violence, before eventually being placated with the PM position offered by presidential incumbent and election winner Mwai Kibaki in an offer to share power in hopes of ending the violence by Odinga's socialist supporters. This occurred subsequent to Obama visiting with Odinga in Kenya, where he reportedly gave Odinga nearly one million dollars along with providing political advice and openly campaigning for his cousin.

   Investigative journalist and author Dr. Jerome Corsi, upon recently traveling to Kenya in search of information on Obama, including his birth records, was summarily informed that any such information is classified as 'top secret' by Kenyan officials. Dr. Corsi was then deported with a dire warning that he never return to Kenya.

   My patriotic brethren, to paraphrase both Thomas Paine and Ben Franklin: we must all hang together or surely we all hang separately. Take heart in the famous last words of Continental Army Officer, Captain Nathan Hale: "I only regret that I have but one life to give for my country."

   Barack Hussein Obama II, a.k.a. Barry Soetoro and his White House press secretary Robert Gibbs, have now both officially asked the American public to simply accept that Obama has already released and posted his BC on the Internet, so why won't Obama grant Hawaii permission to release it as well? Trust but verify!

   Obama can't produce a 'long form vault Hawaiian birth certificate' because he doesn't have one! He has a CoLB, or 'Certificate of Live Birth', which is not the same thing as a BC and proves nothing except that he was born alive, somewhere. This is because as a new state at the time, Hawaii often issued a CoLB even to foreign born children who were allowed to be brought to Hawaii and registered with the state, provided at least one parent was a legal resident of Hawaii. Even if he did have a real BC, it wouldn't matter since he can not be a 'natural born' citizen unless both his parents are also US citizens. His father is Kenyan.

   In fact as the son of a colonial subject of Great Britain, by law British citizenship was conferred upon Obama at birth, irrespective of where he was born. Obama also became a citizen of Indonesia as the legally adapted son of Lolo Soetoro, where he attended a Muslim school strictly limited to only Indonesian citizens. So given the numerous disqualifying eligibility issues, the missing BC is really just an expedient way to demonstrate Obama lied about posting his BC when instead he suspiciously posted an allegedly graphically altered CoLB, which one might expect from an illegal usurper!

   TheObamaFile.com

   The United States Library of Congress has selected TheObamaFile.com

   for inclusion in its historic collection of Internet materials

   This informative site presents the most historically accurate, legally correct and genuinely unbiased credible explanation of the eligibility issue I have found, following several months of studious searching for accurate clarification, of what I now regretfully regard as an illegal usurpation of the office of the President of the United States of America.

   Obviously calling onto question the constitutional eligibility of a sitting president is a serious matter, however our president is not above the rule of law. The Constitution is our greatest protection from abusive government. Throughout the history of mankind, political power has frequently been seized irrespective of the will of the governed, often violently. Perhaps owing to our imperfect nature, totalitarianism has more often been the rule, rather than the exception.

   Our Constitution as first envisioned and ultimately realized by the benefits of both pen and sword, was founded as a heart felt invention of necessity by men so deathly tired of oppression, that they determined despite any cost, to establish our Constitutional Republic. With the Constitution, our Founding Father's planted a seed in soil richly nourished in blood, so that with similar courage United States citizens might forever more be able to exercise their God given inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness in at least one free and just nation upon the face of the earth.

   Respectfully, a Vet.

   The Constitution still matters,

   but only for as long as 'we the people', by continuing to support and defend it, say so!

   The Constitution will protect the citizens for as long as the citizens protect the Constitution.
