What are you right on?
That this issue shows Obama isn't fit to lead the country?
Yeah - that's not too hack-ish. It's no wonder that you call every single person here (on the left) a hack, many times over. As I have told you, this is called "psychological projection."
I stand by my argument: you are an insufferable drama queen, who blows every statement & action up 1,000 times beyond its true meaning.
Nope, US can not revoke U.S. citizen ship, do some research into US citizenship law. and i never claimed such. Sorry, not case closed.
where did I say Indonesia revoked his citizenship? stop putting words in my mouth. His mother voluntarily gave it up when she agreed to allow soetero to adopt bobo. indonesia did not allow dual citizenship until only sometime int he 1970's.
The only thing I am glad about is this time the dude actually said, "He was born in Hawaii", last time he only said, "It is on file" and nothing about the where.
This will actually satisfy quite a few of the people. Although now, and unfortunately, there are stubborn people who, although they believe Obama is a citizen and born in Hawaii, will insist he bows to their collective will.
his actions in handling are petty and has caused hardship to the HI government. instead his actions have made this larger than it original was. you have claimed he did this on purpose, it was his strategy...that is why he is unfit, not because he ignored it, but you claimed it was his strategy and his strategy has caused unnecessary problems for the state of HI....and made a small issue into a larger one on purpose....
you claiming drama queen status just shows how immature you really are. as i said, you only care if you think the repubs look bad, fuck all else. nothing i have said in this thread has taken anything beyond its true meaning, that is false. but all you really have in this thread is partisan meadowmuffins and when that fails, instead of debating the points i raised, you offer only ad homs.....
like i said, you are very weak debater, scant on issues and facts and heavy on ad homs....
More drama queen madness.
Because Onceler said it, it's what Obama was really doing, and he's unfit to lead.
Maybe I am a poor debater with you, because you are basically a child, and I don't waste my time.
It has standing to reject citizenship from those who do not denounce previous citizenships. At that time Indonesia did not allow dual citizenship at all and if you were going to be an Indonesian citizen you were required to renounce any previous ties. This, of course, does not mean that the US has to recognize such a "renunciation".
In fact many nations do that.
And according to the law at that time if he had been born in Kenya, and she had not lived in the US for 5 years after her 14th birthdate (19th birthday) he would not be a US citizen.
The law specifically states "and 5 of those years are after her 14th birthday", so yes, it is a requirement that would have to be fulfilled for his birth as a US citizen, if <- this is an important word please pay attention to it, IF he was born outside the US. The adding different years together in order to add up 5 after her 14th birthday she would have been older than 19 regardless.1. "The time spent in the US need not have been immediately prior to the child's birth, and it is possible to combine multiple separate periods of physical presence in the US to reach the required figures. Additionally, time spent in US territories or possessions can be counted -- as can time spent abroad in the US military, in US government employment, or as a dependent spouse or child of someone posted abroad under such circumstances."
2. Don't you lose your US citizenship if you move to another country with the intent of living there for an extended period of time?
No.
I used to think this was a totally off-the-wall question and that everyone knew the answer -- until I told people I was about to move to Canada, whereupon probably at least half a dozen of my friends asked me if this meant I would have to give up my US citizenship.
It was once the case that a naturalized US citizen could lose his citizenship by remaining outside the US for an extended period. However, this provision was invalidated by the Supreme Court in Schneider v. Rusk (1964) and was repealed by Congress in 1978.

so then you lied or simply have no idea what you're talking about as you're now back peddling on your statement.....LMAO....thank you onceler
that was easy
MEME seems to be right up there with USGED. ie. not college. I bet like him she's proud of her HS DIPLOMA.
Now, is spurt really trying to get to that elite level???
Uh, no - that is correct. I don't have access to the memo's from Obama where he said he is doing it strategically. Gotta get up pretty early in the morning to slip that by the keen mind of Yurtie.
That was half speculation/ half goading you & meme (which worked, btw).
Regardless, you were pretty conclusive in saying he's not fit to lead as a result. But you're not partisan; you're not a hack or anything....
The law specifically states "and 5 of those years are after her 14th birthday", so yes, it is a requirement that would have to be fulfilled.
Again, it simply makes it so if you are say 21 and have spent say 14 to 17 and 18 to 20 within the US you could add those years together to meet the requirement. She would still be above 19 in order to have met the 'and 5 years after her 14th birthday' portion of the requirement.Then how do you explain this paragraph?
"The time spent in the US need not have been immediately prior to the child's birth, and it is possible to combine multiple separate periods of physical presence in the US to reach the required figures.

And again, you can officially renounce your citizenship at a US consulate, and another nation can make such a renunciation a requirement of citizenship.
As for evidence of his Indonesian citizenship, that one is easy, you could not attend school (due to a war they were currently engaged in) in Indonesia without being a citizen. Also due to that same war they required you to renounce other citizenships. Of course, I don't think this happened with Obama, as I think what happened is Sotoro claimed him as a son and thus made him a citizen by extension with no renunciation, thus he was listed as Sotoro when he enrolled in that school.
I think so too. I am just saying that they have standing to reject citizenship of those who would not renounce citizenship, Indonesia couldn't make you renounce your citizenship, but they could deny your citizenship if they had no evidence of such a renunciation. The US also has every right to simply not recognize any such from say a minor or even anybody for that matter.I believe you have to be of legal age before you can renounce citizenship.
"yeah it worked so well that when confronted with its reality you realize what a stupid thing it was you said"
It did work - REALLY well. You can be counted on to take everything seriously and literally, and to the extreme (see: Dixie/tight jeans, LadyT/minimum wage workers). You are basically a humorless fellow, anyway, and there is something weird psychologically there, where you blow everything up to a point where it barely resembles what was originally said.
For example, here - suddenly, Obama is not fit to lead, because Onceler said it...and maineman said it too!
