    I am trying to find the site that goes into detail. But my understanding on dual citizenship has always been addressed but the citizen picks the duality not the countries.
    If the elected Pres. will not give allegiance to the USA over all other countries, then he can not be Pres. as it should be. I will try to find something to back this but it was taught to me in Jr Hi.? Since then it seems we have lots of people throwing the baby out with the bathwater in this country.

    Uh, did you actually read the Palin Canadian birth certificate? Her middle name as Khruchehev? The response in 2a is "You-bet-cha?" #5 is "God no!" When asked if she was legitimate it says, "Yes, at this time." And Marks/afflictions says "Winking." And Godfather is listed as "Theodore (Ted) Stevens" the late senator from Alaska? And it is witnessed by "John McCain?"

    Come on!

    If necessary. :thumbs:

    Even the Bible tells us we can't serve two masters at once. One has to choose.

    Any bill passed by any state which requires proof that a candidate meets the constitutional requirements to hold the office of the President before being allowed on the ballot in that state.

    Why would that be called a birther bill?

    "Birther" is a derogatory term which Obama supporters have coined for citizens that believe that Obama should produce his birth certificate to demonstrate that he meets the consitutional requirement to hold the office of President.

    They have expanded the term to now include any bill proposed by states to ensure that a candidate is constitutionally qualified to hold the office prior to being allowed on the ballot in those states.

    So the op was intended to demonize those who want legitimate standards for Presidential candidates rather than just disagree with them with a reasonable argument?

    I can neither confirm nor deny. Feel free to do a search and read his posts, and decide for yourself.

    Even if you don't agree with his policies or politics, Obama is our President. As we have to respect that. If he wasn't an US citizen, he wouldn't be our President if you stop and think about it.

    Many of us may not necessarily doubt his citizenship - but we want to know if he is hiding something - and if so - what would that be.

    In 2008 Obama released his tax return and then challenged Hillary to do the same.

    So why is Obama refusing to release his birth certificate?

    Of course, I wonder why Hillary did not demand to see his birth certificate???
