BREAKING: Shocking 1995 Video Surfaces of Barack Obama Revealing Who He REALLY Is [VIDEO]
1995 O admits educated by a communist. You have to love our news services.
While we're very happy to have you in the Gulch and appreciate your wanting to fully engage, some things in the Gulch (e.g. voting, links in comments) are a privilege, not a right. To get you up to speed as quickly as possible, we've provided two options for earning these privileges.
What would be icing on the cake is if the next President actually investigates Obama's legitimacy and finds out that he actually wasn't eligible, thereby nullifying all his actions while serving as Executive.
There is also the question about Barack Obama's attendance at Columbia (who won't release any of his records or transcripts) because at least one account has him as obtaining financial aid as a foreigner.
Do I think anything will come of it? No. I'd be ecstatic if it did (and the Supreme Court would be busy for months with the fallout), but the way things have been covered up (the convenient death of the Hawaii registrar) and obfuscated, I doubt we'll ever know the truth of the matter.
By the way, Ted Cruz's father was not an American citizen when Ted was born. He did not become a US citizen until 2005.
Here is an excellent legal analysis of what it means to be a "natural born citizen". But hey, what would two former Solicitors General of the United States know of the topic that you don't.

The tweak that comes in here, though, is whether or not Barack was registered as a citizen of another nation, by which nationality then defaults to the foreign nation. That's why Obama's birth certificate is so important to the debate, because in Indonesia (birthplace of Obama's father - barring evidence he is actually Frank Marshall Davis' son which would entirely clarify the issue but become a scandal in and of itself) the citizenship rules go by paternal parentage and Barack would automatically have been registered as a citizen of that nation instead. Neither Cruz nor McCain were under such pretenses. There is also the issue of his enrollment at Colombia, purportedly as a student who received foreign aid.
Again, do I place any faith in the notion that Obama will be declared ineligible? Not really. But it is awfully fun to speculate what would happen. ;) And there is certainly enough ammunition that speculation isn't entirely without foundation.
Columbia is an old and crappy former teacher's college, ruled by political correctness, but many schools allow tenured professors lots of influence over the entry of students, especially affirmative action students.
Honestly, one must admit everything about the twit demonstrates a lack of capacity to think for himself.
The other part of his identity problem is that he grew up w/o a father for most of his life. So, the male aquaintences he had when he was growing up became father replacements.
BHO's life would make a great Greek Tragety Play. Now he is playing this out on the world stage.

Still, in the election, our citizens decided we would be better off with 4 more years of Obama than the two squeaky clean family men with an undeniable track record of success.
What do I make of that? Either America has decided that results don't matter and success is relative, or the Chicago style politician found a better way to count the vote. We should have an update November, 2016.
Then finally, should there not be a whole herd of the responsible in jail?
This (or any) GOVERNment claim of being "of and for the people" is and has always been nothing but a huge con. Thus WE are Governed by Force and WE can do nothing about it. Only THEY are part of the so-called Balance of Powers; WE have no role in that game.
NOBODY has time to keep up with all that as the prime human requirement is survival, while government steals half our earnings with taxation to maintain the Force and to redistribute to those who won't or often cannot survive on only half of what they work for and earn.
So those who are here at the Gulch are only seeking to escape it all, rather than getting rid of the problem.

Obama uses identity politics to divide America at every turn. In no version of reality does Obama object to identity politics, think its wrong, or any other negative connotation. In fact, it is his most widely used tool to get his way.
I got a real kick out of a listing of Hillary's accomplishments on left leaning site (I think it was a past post on the Gulch). It listed one of her accomplishments as, she was part of the legal team on Watergate that got rid of Richard Nixon. It grossly neglected to inform that she was fired from that team, because she was a liar, an unethical, dishonest lawyer, and she conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the Committee, and the rules of confidentiality. Need anyone say any more? It was probably the only accomplishment listed, the others were mostly just activities with no substance of fact.
