Amendment: The President Elect will provide records of eligibility prior to taking office.

[Zero Sum 305]

The paranoia comes from the side that wants to stem any questioning and limit first amendment rights for those who do.

Indeed. Something I've noticed on all sides every administration change. Some more than others, sure... and yet this still pervades the context of the paranoia. What you're doing is labeling it as paranoia instead of defining the paranoia (is) and how it characterizes the behavior being exercised. Check out the book... its a great read.

Interesting how the anti-war movement has all but vanished since this guy was elected. I guess it was more about the other guy than the actual wars.

His minions are well trained. Gotta give him that.

An excellent point. Perhaps a bit simplistic, though... being that comparing troop levels and engagement, Obama's Wars are not quite the same as Bush's Wars... now aren't they? I'll agree that we must end these deployments as soon as possible to avoid having to return to play cop.

Obama has surpassed Bush in war spending.

From the New York Times:

"It was reflexive for liberals to rail at President George W. Bush for jingoism. But it is President Obama who is now requesting 6.1 percent more in military spending than the peak of military spending under Mr. Bush. And it is Mr. Obama who has tripled the number of American troops in Afghanistan since he took office. (A bill providing $37 billion to continue financing America’s two wars was approved by the House on Tuesday and is awaiting his signature.)"

What about collateral casualties?

You want to call out the anti-war community without considering what it was they were protesting. Have a better sense of an honest context.

But true enough. Lets focus on money. How much more is being spend on Iraq now that troop levels have been drawn down to primarily non-combat roles?

Furthermore, lets also focus on what Obama has said about being involved in these wars in the first place. You can't withdraw an army overnight.

[Usui Takumi 1,562]

On the original subject matter, there are only two theories out there that apply to the interpretation of the Constitution.

1. The Duel Citizenship theory as related to what a natural born citizen is

2. The single US citizen parent as related to what a natural born citizen is.

As far as I know, both were rejected in courts.

The above could be considered skepticism I suppose. However, to assume that government records are forged is denialism.

[The Dude 206]

He expects to get by on charm.

VJ Constitutional experts say not true.

Paul hasn't commented has he? Or are you trying to insinuate that you are some sort of legal expert? I'll expect your usual puffery.

There was also the time table issue.

Yep.

We can't compare apples to oranges and expect to get lemonade out of both.

Has it? Or perhaps it's because the news has focused on other things?

Otherwise we might assume that because the Japanese nuclear power plant isn't being reported on now - that it's A-OK. Something tells me that isn't the case.

You have to be. When a theory of government is built on a foundation of lies, it takes an almost demonic expertise to keep the whole thing from sinking into the abyss from which it came.

[mawilson 2,133]

Either way, we have a problem.

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

Yep. Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Not really. Either you have an 'actual' problem, or you have the appearance of one.

You might not consider yourself a birther but you clearly expose yourself as one.

So if you have any doubts at all on a question makes you a follower?

I have never believed in UFOs yet I think there is a remote possibility, should I start listening to ART BELL?
