Is Obama A Natural Born Citizen?

Remember to ignore all of the smears and lies being spread by the John McCain/Dick Cheney/Fox News campaign and vote on the issues tomorrow.

The issues are solidly on Barack Obama's side. Obama is right on the economy, he's right on health care, he's right on energy, he's right on education, he's right on foreign policy.

Don't make your vote based on fear. Make an informed decision for the betterment of America's future. We all know what the GOP will do with the next four years, we've seen what they've done over the last eight years. Let's see what the Democrats can do (they did pretty good in the 1990s, right?)

Make sure all of your friends and family get to the voting booth tomorrow to vote for Barack Obama. Go to VoteForChange.com if you don't know where your polling location is.

 

If you post that one more time I'm going to ban you!

 

Crazy Rob - why is that? People keep posting the same lies about Obama over and over again and I don't see you threatening them with a ban?

I never stoop the level of personal attacks so I don't think such a warning is reasonable.

 

I don't care- just don't do it again!

Thanks!

 

Crazy Rob - Obama is going to win tomorrow (by a large margin) regardless of your power on this message board. But if this sort of thing makes you feel better, cool.

 

Thank you!

 

When did I become part of the GOP?? That's news to me....

Stop trying to blame EVERYTHING that you don't like on the GOP, I'm not even a Republican.

You don't seem to have your facts straight before you talk. See, that's what's so scary here. People who don't even know the facts voting for the future of our country....

 

Firegirl - what facts are you speaking of? The fact that you are or are not a Republican? I don't really care what your party ID is - if you are supporting McCain then you are supporting the side of lies. McCain has ran his entire campaign on lies.

 

No offense, but don't you find your statements a bit hypocritical given that you are doing exactly what you have said the "other side" is doing?

Its easier to call someone a liar. Backing it up is something entirely different.

 

What you all seem to be missing is that McCain was NOT born in the US but in Panama...what's up with that :?:

 

Actually it's very very easy to back it up when it comes to McCain & Palin. They have told so many lies in their speeches, talking points, and in their despicable ads that it's become harder to pick out the few true parts than find the lies.

Here's 175 documented lies by the McCain/Palin campaign.

 

Welcome to 25 pages ago!

 

He was born to two Americans. this has been addressed many times, McCain is American without a doubt.

 

Prove it!

 

Yet you fail to point to any reliable source of such a claim.

 

easy

John McCain, who ran for the Republican party nomination in 2000 and is the Republican nominee in 2008, was born at the Coco Solo U.S. military base in the Panama Canal Zone to U.S. parents. Although the Panama Canal Zone was not considered to be part of the United States,[7] federal law states: "Any person born in the Canal Zone on or after February 26, 1904, and whether before or after the effective date of this chapter, whose father or mother or both at the time of the birth of such person was or is a citizen of the United States, is declared to be a citizen of the United States."[8] The law that conferred this status took effect on August 4, 1937, one year after John McCain was born — albeit with retroactive effect, resulting in McCain being declared a U.S. citizen.[9]

So basically Wikipedia is your proof? Hmm... ok, guy!

 

Its kinda hard not to trust a viewer edited internet resource that has the number one result for every google search.


Google should just make a Wiki result link and leave wiki out of regular search results. That are we should just use wiki instead of google when conducting searches on the internet.
