It's funny how republicans cry about Obama's birth certificate, yet in 2004 leading republicans including Senator Jim Inhofe tried to pass the "Natural Born Citizen Act (S.2128)" which would allow anyone who was adopted by US parents, prior to their 18th birthday to be eligible to be president of the United States regardless of the country they were born in. At the time they had their eyes on sweet Arnold as the next president. Crap like this is why I'm now a independent. It's all a big joke.
@sj702 here is whats funny to me Hawaii put the birth certificate out there an says its real an obama is a natrual born citizen but the birther can't see beyond obama's black skin

@clarify023. Sorry to inform you but you are wrong. "Only" the individual who wishes to hold the office of "President of the United States" must qualify under the terms as definded by "Natures Law." Only a "Natural Borm Citizen" who is a citizen of the U.S. born of Two not "one" but "TWO" citizen parents. Obama's father was not a citizen. Your statement and the case you cite "only" affects citizenship under the 14th Amendment and not the term "Natural Born Citizen."
Not only could Obummers dad not pass US citizenship to him - because his dad was NOT himself a citizen - BUT neither could his mom pass US citizenship to him because she was underage.
There are SO many reasons this is a FRAUD. Thank you Dr. Herb Titus for your work in this area!
I don't see the birthers whining about Santorum, his father was an Italian immigrant and his mother is half Irish and half Italian , Obama's mother was from Kansas so Obama is MORE American? mmm..I wonder why the birthers are not whining about it. So for the birthers Santorum is not natural born citizen, this guy should show his birth certificate. I want to see it NOW, maybe he was born in Italy, his last name doesn't sound American..hmmm.
Born in Hawaii DOES MAKE Obama natural born. JUS SOLI, WONG KIM ARK, LYNCH, ELG.
Titus is just an ignorant or a birther.
James Kent, COMMENTARIES ON AMERICAN LAW, pg. 258 (1826)
“As the President is required to be a native citizen of the United States…. Natives are all persons born within the jurisdiction and allegiance of the United States.”
@clarity023 - The Constitution specifically states "Natural Born" but gives no definition. Reason we are in this discussion. The Constitution is the SUPREME LAW OF THE NATION and superior to all other laws. Especially those that violate it. Hence Unconstitutional. Other legal documents of 1776 define "Natural Born" specifically as being born of two parents who are both US citizens. Obama is not. His father was not a US citizen. Hence the controversy.
@clarity023 - "Emer de Vattel, gave us a time-honored definition of a “natural born Citizen”. That definition is a child “born in the country, of parents who are citizens.” and is found in "The Law of Nations" Section 212-231 (London 1797) (1st ed. Neuchatel 1758). The Founders used that definition so that the Presidency could only go to future “Natural Born Citizens” (children born in the United States to parents who were born or naturalized Citizens of the United States)".
@LovethisNation Obama was born in US soil and his mother was American. Read the definition of JUS SOLI. Also Wong Kim, Lynch, Elg. All declared "citizen by birth'' that is the same as birthright citizenship or natural born citizen. Obama was born here 'naturally" he didn't go thru a process called naturalization The Supreme Court recognizes TWO citizenships natural born and naturalized parents are irrelevant. If you really "Love thisNation you should know our laws.
Why are you citing Minor, the case is not about national born citizen, Why the birthers don't cite Wong Kim, Elg or Lynch?
Lynch v Clarke
In Lynch v Clarke, Julia Lynch claimed to be a native born citizen, even though born to two British parents domiciled in Ireland. They stayed in New York
@clarity023 - You need to read the Constitution Article 2, section 1, Clause 5. only a "Natural born Citizen" can be president of the United States. Do you not understand plain English?
@willyrho123 James Madison, The Founders’ Constitution Volume 2, Article 1, Section 2, Clause 2, Document 6 (1789)
“It is an established maxim, received by all political writers, that every person owes a natural allegiance to the government of that country in which he is born. Allegiance is defined to be a tie, that binds the subject to the state, and in consequence of his obedience, he is entitled to protection…"
@willyrho123 cont'd The children of aliens, born in this state, are considered as natural born subjects, and have the same rights with the rest of the citizens"
@vpertoso "Emer de Vattel, gave us a time-honored definition of a “natural born Citizen”
No, he "gave" "us" a definition of "les naturels où indigènes". Which was first translated to "natural born citizen" by an unknown translator 10 years after the Constitution was ratified. So obviously the Founders both owned a time machine *and* were pranksters who used a well-known term from Common Law ("natural born" = born on the soil) and secretly intended it to mean something entirely different.
You need to get involved and help so if you go to w(illy) w(illy) w(illy) obama ballot challenge period com(e) and type it all together in your browser as I cannot do that here. We need patriots to help!
@TheTrthseeker You mean you need more people who call for a military coup and a violent overthrow of a democratically elected government? That isn't "patriots" in my book.
EVERTTHING HE HAS SIGNED INTO LAW IS ILLEGAL! That is not me saying this it is US Constitutional law. Destroying the USA in my opinion is why Obama was pushed as a presidential candidate. International Marxists who are involved with the DNC needed a person that would have no qualms about putting our Uncle Sam in a grave. A Natural Born citizen I believe would not be so inclined, they would have strong roots in the history and with the people of the USA. This guy thinks the USA has 57 States!
@vpertoso "That is not me saying this it is US Constitutional law. "
The Constitution explicitly says that laws become effective regardless of the president signing them. *duh* It would be nice if you understood plain English and the basic document you claim to defend.
"A Natural Born citizen I believe would not be so inclined"
@magicmulder - You are an ASS, read Article I; Section 7 of the Constitution. It states clearly - Every Bill passed by the House and Senate, shall, be presented to the President before it becomes a Law; If he approves he shall sign it, but if not he will return it to congress and the congress shall proceed to reconsider it. If 2/3 of the House and Senate agree and passes the Bill over the president's veto then it shall become a Law. It is YOU who does not know the Constitution.
@vpertoso "If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it"
Any problems understanding that?
What you're talking about is the President vetoing a law. Totally different ballpark.
@magicmulder - "If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law." .. As I originally said "everything this president has SIGNED into law is NOT LAW BECAUSE HE IS NOT QUALIFIED TO SIT IN THAT POSITION. WE-THE-PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HOOD WINKED.
@vpertoso "As I originally said "everything this president has SIGNED into law is NOT LAW BECAUSE HE IS NOT QUALIFIED TO SIT IN THAT POSITION."
No. If he wasn't President, him signing a law is as if it hadn't been signed by a/the president. Then the Constitution, as quoted above, says the bill, if not signed by the president, "shall be a law, in like manner as if he had signed it". It doesn't get any simpler. Can you not understand plain English?
@magicmulder - The assumption here is that the president is bonafide. So if a bonafide president does not sign the bill then the bill will become law. If the president is NOT bonafide then the system cannot legally pass bills into law. The process as outlined in the Constitution cannot be followed. The Congress cannot make law without a valid president who is 1 third the government. As you have said, "It doesn't get any simpler". Can you not understand simple logic?
@vpertoso Your own argument beats you. If he isn't President, the clause from the Constitution governs. It would only not apply if the President signed it, but then you'd have to admit Obama is legally President. Either way, the bill becomes law. Catch-22, or, in your birther words, CHECKMATE. ;)
@vpertoso "Everything he has signed into law is illegal" Birthers have been saying the same old song for 3yrs. NOTHING IS ILLEGAL "The 57 states" Obama said it was just a slip of the tongue, but birthers are too dumb to understand that. Obama is YOUR eligible presiden't get over it.
@clarity023 - Certainly everything he has signed into law is law if he is eligible to be the president. If he is found not eligible than what he has signed is NOT LAW. Do your self a favor and Google "Evidence Broadens Obama Natural Born Conspiracy" and read the article with an open mind. It is interesting. I was also skeptical of birthers at one time but the facts presented in the article point to the fact that something is up and all is not right with his election.
@vpertoso "If he found not eligible than what" What are you talking about?! more than 80 lawsuits against him have been dumped, don't you read? YOU are the one who has to read from reliable sources, not WNutDaily or Post and Efail or Fox, those are your "credible' sites ah? If he wasn't eligible he wouldn't be president.
@clarity023 - Right now the method to determine eligibility is through the party supporting the candidate. McCain was challenged by Hillary and the Congress looked into it and gave him an OK. No one of standing in the parties changed Obama and here we are today. The Constitution states Natural Born, historical definition is a person born of 2 parents who are US citizens. His father was not a US citizen. This is the real issue not just his birth certificate.
@vpertoso James Madison, The Founders’ Constitution Volume 2, Article 1, Section 2, Clause 2, Document 6 (1789)
“It is an established maxim, received by all political writers, that every person owes a natural allegiance to the government of that country in which he is born. Allegiance is defined to be a tie, that binds the subject to the state, and in consequence of his obedience, he is entitled to protection…
@vpertoso cont'd The children of aliens, born in this state, are considered as natural born subjects, and have the same rights with the rest of the citizens.”
Case closed. You know you're wrong but you don't want to accept it you're just a birther.
@clarity023 - I thought of that also but the Constitution and 230 years of electing presidents who's parents were US citizens (naturalized or born here) lead me to believe; if the parent's are not "Naturalized" (changed citizenship from old country to US) than no, the off spring cannot be considered "Natural Born". The bottom line is that the writers of the Constitution put in "Natural Born" to keep people out of the presidency who most likely would have loyalty to another country.
@vpertoso Really? In a 6–2 decision issued on March 28, 1898 the Supreme Court held that Wong Kim Ark had indeed acquired U.S. citizenship at birth and that "the American citizenship which Wong Kim Ark acquired by birth within the United States has not been lost or taken away by anything happening since his birth."
Wong Kim's parents were CHINESE not naturalized go look. This guy Titus is an idiot. "Citizen by birth" means a person was born here. Go read it and don't change the subject
@clarity023 - They gave us the 1857 Dred Scott decision setting the stage for the Civil War. Chief Justice Roger B. Taney, speaking for the majority stated ... "We think they [people of African ancestry] are ... not included, and were not intended to be included, under the word "citizens" in the Constitution, and can therefore claim none of the rights and privileges which that instrument provides for and secures to citizens of the United States". Boy did they get that wrong.
@vpertoso Changing subject again, Dred Scott is not the case here. Why don't you discuss about Wong Ark, Elg, Lynch all of alien parents and they were declared natural born citizens by the Supreme Court.
@clarity023 - The point is the Supreme Court does not always interpret the Constitution correctly. Like the other 2 branches of the Fed Gov they have political opinions and their own political agendas. That is why the Ds and Rs try to pack the Court with their kind. The Courts interpretation of "Natural Born" was an attempt to change the historical meaning of "Natural Born". Thus circumventing the Constitution amending process which requires ratification by 3/4 of the States.
@clarity023 - Congressional records show efforts to eliminate the "NB" Req. See H.J.R 59, H.J.R. 67, S.2128, H.J.R.104, H.J.R. 2, H.J.R. 15, H.J.R. 42, From 2003 to 2008, 8 different attempts to alter Art II–Sec I–Cluse V- "NB" citizen requirements for president. All taking placing during Obama’s rise to political power and preceding the Nov 2008 presidential election. In politics, there are no coincidence - not of this magnitude. They knew that the Obama controversy was coming.
@vpertoso Listen how this Republican Hunter answer a question from a person: "I will support deportation of "natural born American citizens of illegal aliens"..
watch starting at :027
/WVn0koLQX38
lol! again you lost. Born here=Natural born parents citizenship is irrelevant.
@vpertoso Marcos Rubio and Bobby Jindal are eligible to run for president it doesn't matter that they have foreign parents. Then Mitt Romney should not run his father was born in Mexico, do some research instead of posting stupid information.
@vpertoso Again, this is very clear:“It is an established maxim, received by all political writers, that every person owes a natural allegiance to the government of that country in which he is born. Allegiance is defined to be a tie, that binds the subject to the state, and in consequence of his obedience, he is entitled to protection…
@vpertoso Jus soli (Latin) Means the RIGHT OF THE SOIL, also known as birthright citizenship, is a right by which nationality or citizenship can be recognized to any individual born in the territory of the related state Titus is an idiot, he is just a birfer like you.
And if he is removed early he will not be entitled to any pension or secret service protection. Then on top of that we can send him to Gitmo! Wouldn’t that be grand! I like to dream big.
It doesn't matter if he was born in Borneo and raised in Bangladesh. The reality is that we are stuck with him for another long, long 13 months because the Democrap Senate, led by Scary Harry Reid, “The Pride of Las Vegas” will not do their job and impeach him and fire him.
That's exactly what we were taught in HS in the late 60's early 70's. Back before the dumbing down of American children by design. Original intent of laws is key to our constitution. Yet the MSM and our own government has pulled the wool over the eyes of many by using the changing interpretations of modern day language. This also explains why the children of 2 Illegal Aliens should be denied American citizenship as the law intended!
A nice argument, but I simply do not buy it. The term "natural law" sounds nice, but a "nation" is not a "natural" structure. Nations are a man-made construct, and as such, the term "natural born" citizen will ultimately need to be defined, either by legislation, or by the Supreme Court.
what the hell ever - day one! -Ofakeo sealed all his documents - he is an illeagle who is unwilling to show any of his documents! ANY OF THEM!!!!! he is not a person who represents - 'We The People' he is a mindless puppet (worse than GW) who represents the NWO elite - he can't speak a decent sentance without a teleprompter.......hes a paid for mindless puppet whore with a wife that is a tax money spending whore and spends our tax dollars like its her own money.
Can Dr. Titus please explain how the "law of nature" would care about man-made things such as "citizenship" or "country borders"? Invoking "nature" in that context is akin to hand-waving, or the attempts to disqualify homosexuality as "unnatural" despite ocurring in nature.
Dr. Titus ran for Vice President on the US Taxpayer Party (renamed The Constitution Party in 2000) ticket in 1996. He would have have made an excellent president but
the American people were far too ignorant about the principals upon which this country was founded and far too self-centered to appreciate such a fine candidate.
It's funny how republicans cry about Obama's birth certificate, yet in 2004 leading republicans including Senator Jim Inhofe tried to pass the "Natural Born Citizen Act (S.2128)" which would allow anyone who was adopted by US parents, prior to their 18th birthday to be eligible to be president of the United States regardless of the country they were born in. At the time they had their eyes on sweet Arnold as the next president. Crap like this is why I'm now a independent. It's all a big joke.

@vpertoso cont'd The children of aliens, born in this state, are considered as natural born subjects, and have the same rights with the rest of the citizens.”
Case closed. You know you're wrong but you don't want to accept it you're just a birther.

@clarity023 - I thought of that also but the Constitution and 230 years of electing presidents who's parents were US citizens (naturalized or born here) lead me to believe; if the parent's are not "Naturalized" (changed citizenship from old country to US) than no, the off spring cannot be considered "Natural Born". The bottom line is that the writers of the Constitution put in "Natural Born" to keep people out of the presidency who most likely would have loyalty to another country.

@vpertoso Really? In a 6–2 decision issued on March 28, 1898 the Supreme Court held that Wong Kim Ark had indeed acquired U.S. citizenship at birth and that "the American citizenship which Wong Kim Ark acquired by birth within the United States has not been lost or taken away by anything happening since his birth."
Wong Kim's parents were CHINESE not naturalized go look. This guy Titus is an idiot. "Citizen by birth" means a person was born here. Go read it and don't change the subject

@clarity023 - They gave us the 1857 Dred Scott decision setting the stage for the Civil War. Chief Justice Roger B. Taney, speaking for the majority stated ... "We think they [people of African ancestry] are ... not included, and were not intended to be included, under the word "citizens" in the Constitution, and can therefore claim none of the rights and privileges which that instrument provides for and secures to citizens of the United States". Boy did they get that wrong.

@vpertoso Changing subject again, Dred Scott is not the case here. Why don't you discuss about Wong Ark, Elg, Lynch all of alien parents and they were declared natural born citizens by the Supreme Court.

@clarity023 - The point is the Supreme Court does not always interpret the Constitution correctly. Like the other 2 branches of the Fed Gov they have political opinions and their own political agendas. That is why the Ds and Rs try to pack the Court with their kind. The Courts interpretation of "Natural Born" was an attempt to change the historical meaning of "Natural Born". Thus circumventing the Constitution amending process which requires ratification by 3/4 of the States.

@vpertoso "The point is the Supreme Court does not always interpret the Constitution correctly."
You can't have the cake and eat it. If you want to discard WKA because "SCOTUS erred", you can't rely on Minor vs Happersett either.
"230 years of electing presidents who's parents were US citizens (naturalized or born here) lead me to believe"
If you want to claim "precedent", what about Chester Arthur?
Besides, you might just say "230 years of not electing a black guy" means something.

@clarity023 - Congressional records show efforts to eliminate the "NB" Req. See H.J.R 59, H.J.R. 67, S.2128, H.J.R.104, H.J.R. 2, H.J.R. 15, H.J.R. 42, From 2003 to 2008, 8 different attempts to alter Art II–Sec I–Cluse V- "NB" citizen requirements for president. All taking placing during Obama’s rise to political power and preceding the Nov 2008 presidential election. In politics, there are no coincidence - not of this magnitude. They knew that the Obama controversy was coming.

@vpertoso Again, this is very clear:“It is an established maxim, received by all political writers, that every person owes a natural allegiance to the government of that country in which he is born. Allegiance is defined to be a tie, that binds the subject to the state, and in consequence of his obedience, he is entitled to protection…

And if he is removed early he will not be entitled to any pension or secret service protection. Then on top of that we can send him to Gitmo! Wouldn’t that be grand! I like to dream big.
It doesn't matter if he was born in Borneo and raised in Bangladesh. The reality is that we are stuck with him for another long, long 13 months because the Democrap Senate, led by Scary Harry Reid, “The Pride of Las Vegas” will not do their job and impeach him and fire him.

That's exactly what we were taught in HS in the late 60's early 70's. Back before the dumbing down of American children by design. Original intent of laws is key to our constitution. Yet the MSM and our own government has pulled the wool over the eyes of many by using the changing interpretations of modern day language. This also explains why the children of 2 Illegal Aliens should be denied American citizenship as the law intended!

A nice argument, but I simply do not buy it. The term "natural law" sounds nice, but a "nation" is not a "natural" structure. Nations are a man-made construct, and as such, the term "natural born" citizen will ultimately need to be defined, either by legislation, or by the Supreme Court.

@peguinetoes "he can't speak a decent sentance without a teleprompter"
And you can't spell "illegal", "sentence" and "it's" (when it means "it is"). Are you from Kenya, too?
Besides, I suppose calling people "whores" in public is illegal in the US.

Can Dr. Titus please explain how the "law of nature" would care about man-made things such as "citizenship" or "country borders"? Invoking "nature" in that context is akin to hand-waving, or the attempts to disqualify homosexuality as "unnatural" despite ocurring in nature.

Dr. Titus ran for Vice President on the US Taxpayer Party (renamed The Constitution Party in 2000) ticket in 1996. He would have have made an excellent president but
the American people were far too ignorant about the principals upon which this country was founded and far too self-centered to appreciate such a fine candidate.
