Why the media and radio pundits are wanting to move on is beyond the comprehension of many of us unless they don't understand what the Constitution says about who is eligible to be President or Vice President. We think that is pretty important, but for some the fact he was born in this Country is all they want to know. Conservatives dissing the Constitution are not something I thought I would ever see.
If you review the facts on the Birth Certificate, if legit, it shows his Mother was not old enough according to the laws in place at the time to confer citizenship on Obama and his Dad was a British citizen from Kenya. It takes two parents who are United States citizens to bestow natural born status on their child -- native born or naturalized parents makes no difference and neither does location of the birth.
What is so hard to understand about that fact and why wasn't the birth certificate challenged by members of Congress when Obama decided to run? This is a basic Constitution Law on Presidential and Vice Presidential eligibility and there has been no amendment changing the Constitution. Anyone running for President knows if both their parents were American citizens when they were born. Obama, the so-called Constitutional Adjunct Professor, had to have known but ran anyways spitting on the Constitution and our elected officials never said a peep.
Those same Democrat elected officials in the Senate required John McCain to prove his eligibility because he was born to two United States citizens in the Panama Canal Zone. Since his parents were both United States citizens with his Dad serving in the Navy, he was declared eligible to run by the Senate. Obama's Father was a British subject but they never required him to submit his birth certificate. Why? Because they knew he wasn't eligible and thought no one would care?
Why don't American citizens especially those in the military have standing in the Court to challenge the eligibility of the President? After all he is our President and the military's Commander in Chief. If he is not eligible to run the American public has a right to know.
By all documentation, Obama is serving as President illegally. We would hate to think that Harvard Law taught Constitutional Law that 'natural' and 'native' born were interchangeable. Obama has a reading Comprehension problem if he doesn't know the difference between 'natural' and 'native' born. We believe he has known all along and Obama and his cronies have been trying to find away around the law but is is no way to spin the Constitution so they hope it all goes away with the releasing of the birth certificate, if legit.
In fact when he was born, his mother was too young to give him American citizenship according to the laws on the books at the time. It is not where you are born, but who your parents are. We suspect he has known all along and so have most elected Democrat leadership but figure if he was in office for more than two years, no one would dare stand up and ask him to leave office. You cannot resign an office if you were not eligible to hold office. Obama is probably right that no member of Congress would stand up and tell the President that is ineligible to be President. Now we know why we had all the voter fraud in 2006 and 2008 out of the Democrats to take Congress because they knew a Republican Senate would question Obama's eligibility. Looks like Obama was set to run for President in 2004 by Democrat leadership.
Was the Clinton silence, after initially bringing up the fact he wasn't eligible to run, bought by naming Hillary Secretary of State? Is that what that lunch between Bill Clinton and Obama was all about?
We are shocked he is running for President again and this time our elected officials need to stand up and be counted. What do you think the media and Democrats would be saying if Marco Rubio or Bobby Jindal announced they were running for President? They were be screaming all over the place demanding to see not only their birth certificates but the naturalization papers of their parents. Why did Obama get a pass and continues to get a pass today?
Decide for yourself after reading the article by Bob Unruh below if Obama is eligible to be President:

President Barack Obama in the Oval Office April 4, 2011
The "Certificate of Live Birth" document released by the White House today, if authentic, assures Americans that their president was born in Hawaii as he has said, according to two participants in a lawsuit who challenged the president's tenure in the Oval Office.
But they say it also proves he's ineligible under the Constitution's requirements to be president.
According to Mario Apuzzo, the attorney who argued the Kerchner vs. Obama case, and the lead plaintiff, retired Navy Cmdr. Charles Kerchner, the documentation reveals that Barack Obama Sr., a Kenyan national subject to the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom, was the father when Barack Obama Jr. was born.
That, they say, would disqualify Obama because of the Founders' requirement in the Constitution that a president be a "natural born Citizen," commonly understood during the era of the beginnings of the United States to mean a citizen offspring of two citizen parents.
(snip)
They quote Vattel's 1758 "The Law of Nations," a document used widely by the American Founders, where it states in Vol. 1, Ch. 19, Section 212: "natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens."
His organization, ProtectOurLiberty.org, also explains that under the British Nationality Act of 1948, when Obama was born in 1961 he was a British subject.
The goal, according to Apuzzo, was to avoid a president with divided loyalties – to America and to another nation to which his father or mother owed loyalty.
"This unity of jus soli (soil) and jus sanguinis (descent) at the time of birth assure that one is born with sole natural allegiance (obligation of fidelity and obedience to government in consideration for protection that government gives)," the organization explains.
"Our Constitution requires unity of U.S. citizenship and sole natural allegiance from birth only for the president and commander in chief of the military, given the unique nature of the position, a position that empowers one person to make decisions for our national survival. It is required of the president because such a status gives the American people the best chance that a would-be president will not have any foreign influences which because of conflict of conscience can most certainly taint his/her critical decisions made when leading the nation.
"The Founding Fathers emphasized that, for the sake of the survival of the constitutional Republic, the office of president and commander in chief of the military be free of foreign influence and intrigue. It is the 'natural born Citizen' clause that gives the American people the best chance to keep it that way."
He said in American jurisprudence "there is not one case that says being born to an alien parent creates a natural born citizen."
But Apuzzo said the White House simply wants to ignore the Constitution's demand.
"It doesn't say born," he said. "They want to steamroll over 'natural born.'"
He said the problem, however, is getting a court to decide the dispute he raised. The seven or eight dozen cases brought so far largely have been turned back without a review of their actual merits.
Courts decided that plaintiffs don't have "standing," or an injury or possible injury from a violation of the U.S. Constitution, so the cases are thrown out.
Apuzzo said, however, with the flood of state proposals being considered at the legislative level, at some point a law specifically will give a plaintiff standing, and then a dispute could be argued in the state courts.
