In the beginning there were questions about Obama’s eligibility to hold office. Few people were eager to really delve into the eligibility question as it applied to Obama, primarily through fear of being called racist. In other words, cowardice and political correctness played a huge roll in the election of the country’s first knowingly ineligible president.
We all know how the MSM covered for him, never asking the most elementary questions surrounding his eligibility. For instance, how could a person be a dual citizen ((best case scenario for BHO) and run for POTUS?
After all, according to his own website when he was running for president, his father was born in Kenya. As such, father and son were born Brits according to the British Nationality Act of 1948.
Fast forward to 2013.
While there may have been some genuinely ignorant members of Congress who did not understand the meaning/definition of Natural Born Citizenship and how it applies to the U.S. and the presidency, that is no longer the case.
The question has moved from if Obama was ever eligible to run from who doesn’t know he couldn’t legitimately run. It stopped being a question a long time ago as evidenced by this Representative Blake Farenthold’s inability to utter the words Obama was born a natural born citizen in one sentence.
