I know this might be old, but I just heard about it. Obama's not a US born citizen, yet why was he eligible to run for President? Wasn't one of the rules to run was to be a natural born US citizen? Someone told me, there was some cover up and conspiracy about how he faked his birth certificate and how he was born in Hawaii or something.

he was born in hawaii, after it became a state. so he was a born in a U.S. state = he is a natural born citizen.
hawaii became a state in 1959 and obama was born in it in 1961 mccain wasn't born in a state though! he was born in panama. but it was a naval (i think?) base so it's all good for him too. |

What's all this stuff about him being born in Kenya though? There was some thing about how his grandmother said yes he was born in Kenya. I don't know.

all i know is there was some big rumor about it. i don't know all the details, but really, i highly highly highly doubt it could just be overlooked if he wasn't born in the U.S.....his birth certificate is posted on his site too.

Just a rumor, and an old one at that. He's a US citizen.

There was this thing that he was actually born in Kenya. Some family relative of his has gone on the record saying she/he witnessed his birth there.
But of course NO ONE will say anything about it. |

But of course NO ONE will say anything about it. Ya, his grandma did say that. And when some reported asked Obama which hospital he was born in, he said the one on the west side of HI. But when they asked his sister, she said that hospital on the whole opposite side. So they do not have their story straight. |

But of course NO ONE will say anything about it. Because this is an OLD RUMOR that was debunked a while ago when the state of HI confirmed that he was born there. It doesn't really matter who said they witnessed what, that doesn't make it factual. |

yea, obama was born in Hawaii raised in Indonesia and then moved back to Hawaii, then to chicago for law and eventually to Illinois where he was nominated for presidents (I know because we reviewed this in history class), I believe his first set of parents were kenya and white (which he is ) then after a divorce, they moved to indonesia?

What's with everyone starting rumors about Obama's birth? McCain was born in Panama, yet I haven't seen anyone get upset over that.

He was born in Panama, but on a military base. There's a law that says you're still considered a natural born citizen is born on an American military base. Nevermind that that law was made specifically for him.. |

You'd think people would be trying to say he was born outside the base and that his parents forged the birth certificate or something. |

I know a lot of this was said already but I'm going to say it again anyway.. lol
Obama was born in Hawaii, a US state. He was not born in Kenya, his father was born in Kenya and died in Kenya as well. John McCain was born in Panama and yes, I believe it was on a Naval base, which I supposed makes him a US born citizen. So they are both eligible to run for the Presidency. That is not, by any way, something that would be overlooked by anyone and let that slip through the cracks. |
