"My initial hunch was that Obama was in fact not born in Kenya, but that the name on the birth certificate was not “Barack Obama” but some other, possibly “Barry” with perhaps even a different last name (his mother’s?). ...Such speculation is obviously conjectural." "There was some whispering about Senator John McCain’s own natural-born citizenship status and POTUS eligibility early on and to his credit he produced his long form birth certificate in record time putting such questions to rest very quickly...." considering that TWO of the cases filed with the Supreme Court (one which they dismissed just yesterday, and the other just last Friday) formally asserted that John McCain *was not qualified* to serve as President of the United States because he was not "natural born" (& neither were Obama, or the Socialist Party's candidate, for good measure. <g>) "was listed as having Indonesian citizenship. Indonesia did not allow dual citizenship at that time," "... raising the possibility of Obama’s mother having given up his U.S. citizenship." AMERICAN GOVERNMENT records, should we?)
