If you are Not Born Natural Citizen, then you cannot become one.
Joe Miller wrote at factcheck.org:
"When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British
colony, still part of the United Kingdom's dwindling empire.
As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship
status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act
governed the status of Obama Sr.'s children:
"British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the
provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act
shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his
father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.
"In other words, at the time of his birth, Barack Obama Jr. was both a U.S.
citizen (by virtue of being born in Hawaii) and a citizen of the United
Kingdom and Colonies (or the UKC) by virtue of being born to a father who
was a citizen of the UKC.
"Obama's British citizenship was short-lived. On Dec. 12, 1963, Kenya formally
gained its independence from the United Kingdom. Chapter VI, Section 87 of the
Kenyan Constitution specifies that:
"1. Every person who, having been born in Kenya, is on 11th December,
1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected person
shall become a citizen of Kenya on 12th December, 1963...
"2. Every person who, having been born outside Kenya, is on 11th December,
1963 a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies or a British protected
person shall, if his father becomes, or would but for his death have become, a
citizen of Kenya by virtue of subsection (1), become a citizen of Kenya on 12th
December, 1963.
"As a citizen of the UKC who was born in Kenya, Obama's father automatically
received Kenyan citizenship via subsection (1). So given that Obama qualified
for citizen of the UKC status at birth and given that Obama's father became a
Kenyan citizen via subsection (1), it follows that Obama did in fact have
Kenyan citizenship after 1963."

Obama is Toast
Obama's citizenship, the Constitution, and a dead elector
by Linda Bentley

If one is not 'born' a natural born citizen, he can
never be a natural born citizen
WASHINGTON, D.C. – On Monday U.S. Supreme Court Deputy Director of Public
Information Patricia McCabe Estrada informed Leo C. Donofrio the full court,
meaning all nine justices, distributed his application for an emergency stay for
conference on December 5. His case (Donofrio v. Wells) was originally referred
for conference on November 19 by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.
Donofrio stated, "We now know that the renewed request to halt the election was
not denied and is actively being considered at the Supreme Court."
According to Donofrio, if four of the nine justices respond affirmatively
to Donofrio's case, it will be scheduled for oral argument and further
briefing.
If at least five of the nine justices respond in the affirmative, they
could grant a stay of the Electoral College vote.
Contrary to what recent articles in the mainstream media have reported, Donofrio
emphasizes his lawsuit does not contest President-elect Barack Obama's
birthplace. In one letter, to correct false information reported, Donofrio
wrote, "The main argument of my lawsuit alleges that since Obama was a
British citizen – at birth – a fact he admits is true, then he cannot
be a 'natural born citizen.'
The word 'born' has meaning. It deals with the status of a presidential
candidate 'at birth.' Obama had dual nationality at birth. The status of
the candidate at the time of the election is not as relevant to the provisions
of the Constitution as is his status 'at birth.' If one
is not 'born' a natural born citizen, he can never be a natural born citizen."
In an attempt to get the point across, Donofrio reiterates on his blog, "I have
REPEATEDLY stated that Obama can release a golden birth certificate signed by
100 gazzillion witnesses embossed in gold leaf that he was born on the mall in
Washington D.C. and it still wouldn't make him a 'Natural Born Citizen' under
the Constitution because he was, regardless of where he was born, a BRITISH
citizen 'at birth.'
Since he was 'born' as a British citizen/subject, his United States citizenship
was not 'natural.' "
Attorney Philip Berg also learned, on Monday, after his assistant spoke to the
clerk of the U.S. Supreme Court, his petition for a writ of certiorari would be
distributed to all nine justices and a conference should be set within ten days.
Additionally, Berg learned the waiver filed by the Federal Elections Commission
was filed only on behalf of the FEC and was not also filed on behalf of Obama
and/or the DNC, even though the docket indicated it was filed by "respondents
Federal Election Commission, et al."
So, when Berg's case, which does challenge Obama's birthplace, as well as his
citizenship, is set for conference, it too will require affirmation by four of
the nine justices in order to proceed to a hearing.
Meanwhile, Donofrio is aiding Cort Wrotnowski in his application to the U.S.
Supreme Court for a stay and/or injunction of the election.
Wrotnowski's complaint was initially filed against Connecticut Secretary of
State Susan Bysiewicz for her failure to qualify candidates' eligibility before
certifying them to appear on the November 4 ballot.
His initial application for stay of the election was submitted to and denied by
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg.
He then refiled his application on November 29 via express mail, only to be told
by the clerk his renewed application to Justice Antoinin Scalia would be "held
back for seven days due to anthrax screening."
On December 2 at 10:30 a.m. Wrotnowski hand delivered ten copies of his renewed
application to the security booth at the U.S. Supreme Court and was told the
clerk would probably receive them by 2 p.m. that day.
His application now shows up as having been refiled with Scalia on November 29.
Meanwhile in California, Attorney Gary Kreep, executive director of the United
States Justice Foundation, who is involved with the Alan Keyes lawsuit to
prevent California Secretary of State Debra Bowen from recording the 55
state Electoral votes for Obama until the issues surrounding his citizenship
and eligibility are cleared up, is now seeking an investigation into the
process that has apparently allowed a dead woman to be listed as an official
elector.
Ilene Huber of Sherman Oaks is listed as a Democratic Party Elector pledged to
Obama in Congressional District 28, located in Los Angeles.
There are no registered voters in all of California by that name; only three
women in the entire country could be found with that name.
There was an Ilene Huber, born around 1927, listed in the 1930 U.S.
Federal Census, who, if still living, was in Mercer, Ohio.
There was an Ilene Mary Huber who died in 1958 listed in the California Death
Index, 1940-1997.
And, last there was an Ilene D. Huber, who was living in Humboldt, Calif. at the
time of her death in October 2001.
Kreep believes there may be an attempt to "revise" the list of electors,
replacing the names of the electors chosen by the voters with new electors.
In a letter sent to the clerks of each of California's counties, Kreep wrote,
"Such 'revisions' will, in all likelihood, result in litigation being filed to
challenge such attempts to alter the ballot post election, and may result in
your county being included as a defendant therein."

Update 12/07/08: The Supreme Court's announcement is scheduled for 10 a.m. on
Monday, December 8, 2008. We will then know if America has survived, or if the
"great experiment" is over.

------- End of Yannone Excerpt ------------
So we shall see shortly whether the Supremes will examine Obama's credentials
and eligibility for the presidency. If they do, they have a host of issues they
should address, particularly
1. the right of his mother to confer US citizenship upon baby Obama at births
according to law at the time,
2. whether Obama experienced birth in Kenya as his grandmother and auntie
claimed,
3. Does Obama have "natural born" USA citizenship?
Let us pray that we do not witness any clever magic by which the Supremes allow
Obama to hold the presidency in spite of a no answer to question 3 above.
