Usually theres a lot of misconceptions about him being a US citizen or not, theres been a lot of false accusations and rumors about his supposed right to be the POTUS.
Well it seems according to the AP that the Supreme Court as agreed to hear one of the cases
BOMBSHELL: Supreme Court now has Obama Citizenship
Sent: Monday, June 15, 2009 11:20 AM
Subject: Supreme Court Agrees to Hear
AP- WASHINGTON D.C. - In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's
qualifications for the presidency, the group Americans for Freedom of
Information has Released copies of President Obama's college transcripts
from Occidental College Released today, the transcript indicates that Obama,
under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student
from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the school.
The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court
order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California. The
transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was
awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation
Scholarship program.
To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship. This
document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's
detractors have been seeking.
Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is
no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking pretty grim.
The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts
increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy and qualification to serve as
president. When reached for comment in London, where he has been in
meetings with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Obama smiled but
refused comment on the issue.
Britain's Daily Mail also carried the story in a front-page article titled, Obama
Eligibility Questioned leading some to speculate that the story may
overshadow economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K.
In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups,
Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed
on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to
serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey.
This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from
serving as president. Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by
citizens demanding20proof of Obama's citizenship or qualification to serve
as president.
Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released
the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending.
This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000
in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for
legal resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records.
Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the
final report will be provided to the U.S. Attorney General,
Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter.
I dont think he would be dumb enough, or the Democratic part be stupid enough if he wasnt a US citizen to even remotely try to put him in office, but weird they are agreeing to hear the case now that his transcripts have been released

He was on the national security committee. Pretty sure they verify citizenship before you can sit on that committee.
I too am surprised that the Supreme Court is dignifying such bullshit with their time. But I suppose it will put all these birther assholes in their place.

I mean - the FBI, CIA and other organizations that you never even heard of CRAWL UP YOUR ASS WITH A MICROSCOPE as soon as you are nominated - that shit would have gotten shut down a LONG time ago if that was the case. LOL. I love this game.

the Gov of california was not born in the US, so you would be suprised at what gets by. there is supposively a new document that was found a few days ago that is being used also and according to some people it is not a fake, but i am no expert. i know mine looks different than his for sure and always have to provide it.

I agree i think they are taking the highest profile case to put to bed all the other people that are sueing. I think that is their thinking .
I posted this not to say that Obama ISNT a US citizen, rather was pointing out how weird it was for the Supreme Court to take the case. Theres been many other cases that they should have heard with far more merit than this one IMO.
However, i will say this, if this document is true, one has to ask WHY he filed as a FOREIGN student to get aid. That is misleading/lieing at worst. Goes to character IMO, IF ITS TRUE.
If he lied about that, one has to question where the original birth certificate came from.

Aas much as I hate Obama this can only hurt the US. Even if Obama is kicked out of office we are stuck with that idiot Biden. Then you can bring up the loss of legitimacy overseas.
On a side note, obama is not technically able to get the SCI clearance to be on the intelligence committee because of drugs use and he was still there. My point, ALL rules are bent for congress.

If in fact he was proven to not be eligible to be the president wouldn't that in fact make the election null and void? Then wouldn't there have to be another election?

I would imagine that Obama would simply be declared unfit to serve and follow the proscribed order of succession. If not, then Pelosi would be in the White House and I will take a few more years of Carter before her.

You know better. Drug use is not a go or no-go item for a TS SCI w/ a Lifestyle Poly. UNDISCLOSURE is. Ie. If I say I never smoked pot, but they find out that I have/had -- THEN that is grounds for clearance being suspended or revoked.

Theres nothing in the constitution that says anything about state governors having to be born citizens. That is left for the states to decide.
As much of an Alex Jones fan as you are, I'm surprised you aren't in the loop about how he is saying the "NWO" are trying to repeal Article II Section V so that the Governator can run for prez. Sen. Hatch from Utah is pushing legislation for Arnold, but as to whether its a "NWO/Builderberg plot for world domination" or just "good old boy" cronyism is up to you.

I wonder why Builderberg (aka the Jews) would favor an Austrian aryan for the dictator of the world though... it makes no sense. :headslap:

Maybe my case was different then. When I interviewed for counter intell I was dismissed for prior drug use.

If it happens the people need to really take back those positions. make it where many people with many backgrounds and we could get something going. with the job most of these people have 80% of the population could easily do it, just gotta have $$ to get in and that needs to change.

I don't like Obama one bit but would rather see him live out his term than get kicked out for this BS. Yeah, he may not be a US citizen but whats done is done. Its going to be an embarrassment to the max for our country worldwide if this happens, not to mention the relationships he has made overseas would likely have been for nothing. Biden is an idiot.

well if he is not a citizen then he should not be able to finish his term period, and at that point i think enough people would get the idea and biden would get booted too. actually there are many people out there that could run this country good but they never stand a chancr against someone who has 1 billion to play with for camapignin. notice ron paul was blacked out when he was supposed to be on live TV. this happened to him several times. you were kind of force fed who they wanted you to pick.

none of this matters in this case.
If Obama gets kicked out of office then it reverts to either Biden or Pelosi. Biden is too damn dumb to do it, and Pelosi is too dangerous. Given the choices I will take Obama in a heartbeat.
Something o test your political knowledge, why isnt the Senate Majority leader the #3 in succession for the presidency?
Answer below:
Answer:
Because when the Constitution was written and that order was set, the Senate was an extension of state govt. Senators were not voted into office, they were appointed by the individual Governors.

my opinion still stands that if he were not a citizen then the people really need to take back the country or roll over like a dog looking for a treat.

Please show me that this was in the last MONTH even. It is old news.
http://news.google.com/news/search?pz=1&ned=us&hl=en&q=obama+citizenship
It is a hoax:
http://urbanlegends.about.com/od/barackobama/a/obama_citizenship_questioned.htm
Is it really an AP news story?
No. The Associated Press ("AP") never published such a story. It didn't run in any real newspaper, nor on any real wire service. It can, however, be found reposted on a plethora of anti-Obama blogs and websites.
Did a group called "Americans for Freedom of Information" release Obama's transcripts?
No. The organization doesn't exist</B> — or it didn't at the time this message first began circulating, at any rate. A similarly-named website went up after the fact, but there's no evident connection between the website and this fake news story.
Have Obama's Occidental College transcripts been released at all?
No, nor has any court of law "ordered" them released, according to Occidental College administrators.
Did Obama attend Occidental under the name "Barry Soetoro"?
No. Soetoro was the name of Obama's stepfather, but there's no evidence he attended college under that name. Fellow alumni quoted in the press remember him as "Barry Obama." An Occidental College spokesperson told FactCheck.org there are no records showing that Obama used his stepfather's last name.
Did Obama attend Occidental under a Fulbright Scholarship for Foreign Students?
No. According to various news sources, Obama did attend Occidental on a scholarship, but it wasn't a Fulbright, let alone a Fulbright Scholarship designated for foreign students. The Fulbright Foreign Student Program (http://www.foreign.fulbrightonline.org/) is for Master's Degree and Ph.D. candidates. Obama was an undergraduate.
Did the Daily Mail mention these revelations in a news story entitled "Obama Eligibility Questioned"?
No. No such story turns up in a search of the British newspaper's archive.
Did the Supreme Court agree to hear arguments on Obama's eligibility?
No. The Supreme Court refused to consider the Donofrio case.</B>
Did Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation release a study showing Obama has spent $950,000 in campaign funds to fight litigation over his legitimacy?
I could find no record of such a study being published. The Foundation does exist and its Executive Director is a man named Gary Kreep, but he is on record as saying this story is a hoax.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Obama's Birth Certificate:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20090728/od_nm/us_birth_odd
The digitally scanned copy of the "certification of live birth" from Hawaii's Department of Health shows Obama was born in Honolulu at 7:24 p.m. on August 4, 1961.
The nonpartisan FactCheck.org (http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/nm/od_nm/storytext/us_birth_odd/32854818/SIG=10muij34d/*http://FactCheck.org), a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania, examined, handled and photographed the original certificate in an effort to put the controversy to rest.
"We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the USA, just as he has always said."
FactCheck.org also pointed out that Obama's American mother and Kenyan father placed an advertisement in a local Honolulu newspaper on August 13, 1961, announcing their son's birth.
I have attached the birth certificate.
