Lean: Very Conservative Gender: ![]() | Court: No review of Obama's eligibility to serve Court: No review of Obama's eligibility to serve - Yahoo! News WASHINGTON – The Supreme Court has turned down an emergency appeal from a New Jersey man who says President-elect Barack Obama is ineligible to be president because he was a British subject at birth. The court did not comment on its order Monday rejecting the call by Leo Donofrio of East Brunswick, N.J., to intervene in the presidential election. Donofrio says that since Obama had dual nationality at birth — his mother was American and his Kenyan father at the time was a British subject — he cannot possibly be a "natural born citizen," one of the requirements the Constitution lists for eligibility to be president. Donofrio also contends that two other candidates, Republican John McCain and Socialist Workers candidate Roger Calero, also are not natural-born citizens and thus ineligible to be president. At least one other appeal over Obama's citizenship remains at the court. Philip J. Berg of Lafayette Hill, Pa., argues that Obama was born in Kenya, not Hawaii as Obama says and Hawaii officials have confirmed. Berg says Obama also may be a citizen of Indonesia, where he lived as a boy. Federal courts in Pennsylvania have dismissed Berg's lawsuit. Federal courts in Ohio and Washington state have rejected similar lawsuits. Allegations raised on the Internet say the birth certificate, showing that Obama was born in Hawaii on Aug. 4, 1961, is a fake. But Hawaii Health Department Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino and the state's registrar of vital statistics, Alvin Onaka, say they checked health department records and have determined there's no doubt Obama was born in Hawaii. |

Lean: Very Conservative Gender: ![]() | Re: Court: No review of Obama's eligibility to serve Why don't some people get over it already. Obama's mother should just show her passport and prove she had never been to Kenya - however, the accusations are so rediculous that she really shouldn't have to. Besides, even if he WERE born in Kenya, he still would have been a natural born citizen though his mother. |

Those whack jobs were running around for a long time and some of them still are. Just like most people will hardly pay attention to those wackos they will also hardly pay attention to the Obamas not a citizen wackos and Obama is really a muslim wackos.One wacko is trying to say Obama has dual citizenship, the other is trying to say he was born in Kenya another is trying to say or the same wacko is trying to say his natural born citizenship forfeited his natural born citizenship sometime in Indonesia another wacko is a hypocrite sore looser republican by the name of Allen Keys. Republicans and conservatives should be above such petty nonsense, especially considering the fact there is real **** to nail Obama on. Grant it most libs don't give a rats ass that Obama went a anti-American racist church for twenty years or about Obama's association with a known terrorist ,but at least it is some real ****. | |

It does nobody any good when people don't accept the legitimacy of the president. This needs to be settled now. | |

When you have one fruitcake running around saying he has daul citizenship, another fruitcake saying he was born in Kenya and another fruitcake or even the same man saying even if he was born in the US his birth right citizenship was forfeited sometime in Indonesia. One has to wonder about the legitimacy of their claims. | ||
