The answer to that may have something to do with claims that Barack Hussein Obama was adopted by his stepfather, Lolo Soetoro, changed his name to Barry Soetoro, and became an Indonesian citizen; that Barry Soetoro was an Indonesian citizen when his father enrolled him in the Catholic Fransiskus Assisi School in Jakarta, Indonesia. The document and its translation can be seen here. The authenticity of the document can be obtained here. The document lists Lolo Soetoro as Obama’s father (not stepfather), and lists his citizenship as Indonesian (not American, not Kenyan).

Full-Page Citizenship Challenge To Run Twice,
December 1st and 3rd
D.C. National Press Club Event: Dec 8th
Our full-page Open Letter to Mr. Obama will be published in the Chicago Tribune on both Monday, December 1, 2008 and Wednesday, December 3, 2008. It will appear in the main news section.
Chicago is Mr. Obama's hometown. His transition team is operating out of the Kluczynski Federal Building in downtown Chicago. He is known to be a regular reader of the Tribune, Chicago's principal newspaper, with a daily circulation of over a half-million readers.
The Open Letter to Mr. Obama is a formal Petition for a Redress (Remedy) for the alleged violation of the "natural born citizen" clause of the Constitution of the United States of America. Mr. Obama is respectfully requested to direct the Hawaiian officials to provide access to his original birth certificate on December 5-7 by our team of forensic scientists, and to provide additional documentary evidence establishing his citizenship status prior to our Washington, D.C. press conference on December 8.
They all sure dodge the question, don't they. Ya just can't get a straight answer out of anyone. Well, it was April 1st, LOL.
Q [inexplicability]: Hello, I am Azzeddine EL HASNAOUI. A 20 year-old Moroccan boy. I always ask the question whether Barack Obama is a Muslim or Christian. Either answers; Show me where it says Barack Obama is a muslim or where it says Christian. I tried Obama's school records... For proof of his Islamic religion... Barack Hussein Obama was registered under the name "Barry Soetoro" serial number 203 and entered the Franciscan Asisi Primary School on 1 January 1968 and sat in class 1B. School documents listed Barry Soetoro as an Indonesian citizen born in Honolulu, Hawaii on 4 August 1961. Barry's religion was listed as Islam. Google is my friend!
Michelle Austein & George Burkes: Google is a great search tool, but we caution you to remember to check the sources carefully, as not everything you find on the Internet is accurate.
Some Americans are confused about this as well – about ten percent in a March poll believed Obama is Muslim. Obama's middle name is Hussein, which is a common Arabic name. He also lived in Indonesia, a country with a large Muslim population. But Obama is actually a practicing Christian. However, he does have Muslim roots – Obama has described his father from Kenya as "a non-practicing Muslim."

Four Tennessee legislators want Obama to prove citizenship
Several Tennessee lawmakers have signed on to a legal action intended to force President Barack Obama to turn over his birth certificate and other documents to prove his citizenship, an effort rejected by the U.S. Supreme Court in an earlier case.
Tennessee Reps. Eric Swafford, Stacey Campfield, Glen Casada and Frank Niceley have all agreed to be plaintiffs in a planned legal action by a Russian immigrant in California who has challenged whether Obama meets constitutional criteria to be president.
The lawsuit from the Defend Our Freedoms Foundation, which has not been filed, will be among several court challenges to Obama's citizenship.
One of the cases reached the U.S. Supreme Court late last year, and the court declined without comment to take it up, a move many interpreted as meaning the issue was dead.
The campaign posted a copy of his certificate on a page intended to counter rumors about Obama.
Swafford's letter states "I agree to be one of the plaintiff's in a legal action filed by Dr. Orly Taitz, Esquire for a Writ of Mandamus to obtain birth certificate, immigration records, passports and other vital records for Barry Soetoro, aka Barack Hussein Obama."
The letter from the Pikeville Republican is written on the letterhead of the House of Representatives.
Yes, it should matter. If Obama is not a natural born American citizen and retains the title of POTUS, a dangerous precedent would be set for future presidential candidates.
Should it? Does it matter at this point? What if he is proven not to be a natural born citizen? What do you think would happen as a result?
Yes, it should matter. The law is the law. We don't seem to obey laws in higher circles anymore though...
What would happen in the off-chance that the case went against him? Total chaos in the country I'm sure. If you added that mess to the economic situation, I wouldn't want to even go to town at that point!
"Happiness can only come from inside of you and is the result of your love. When you are aware that no one else can make you happy, and that happiness is the result of your love, this becomes the greatest mastery of the Toltecs: the Mastery of Love." ~~don Miguel Ruiz~~
Well, here's one way to look at it and something to think about. If BHO was removed from office, wouldn't we then get Mr. Biden? If anything happened to him (born in 1942), would we then get to welcome Madame President Nancy Pelosi?
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." ~ Ronald Reagan
If anyone can find the full documentary, please put it up here. We may not be able to find it until after Aug. 4 when it is officially released.
A Question of Eligibility
WASHINGTON – WND Editor Joseph Farah has produced the first major DVD documentary on the critical issues surrounding the constitutional eligibility of Barack Obama to serve as president – but it wasn't easy.
In fact, during the course of shooting and editing "A Question of Eligibility," the award-winning filmmaking team, including veterans of many controversial movie projects, made the unusual request to keep its identity secret for fear of retribution from the administration.
"That's how hot this topic is," said Farah. "That's how hot this movie is." "A Question of Eligibility" is expected to ship to customers on Aug. 4, the date Obama claims as his 48th birthday. Preorders are being accepted exclusively at the WND Superstore.
"I guess you could say it's a special birthday surprise for Obama," said Farah. "But, honestly, I don't think he'll like it. In fact, I believe the facts revealed in this documentary keep Obama awake at night. This eligibility issue is the only issue that threatens not only the future of his presidency, but almost everything he thinks he has already accomplished as president."
In "A Question of Eligibility," Farah chose four key presenters to bring the issue home – WND senior staff writer Jerome Corsi, the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of "The Obama Nation"; Orly Taitz, one of the most visible attorneys involved in filing lawsuits challenging Obama to produce proof of his qualifications for office; Alan Keyes, a participant in one of those lawsuits, a presidential candidate himself, and the Republican candidate who opposed Obama in his successful bid to become a U.S. senator, the job that brought him to national attention; and Janet Porter, an activist and pundit who writes a weekly column for WND.
"What we have produced here is a compelling and shocking documentary that will appeal both to those already steeped in the details of the eligibility story and those who need a video introduction to the major issues," said Farah.
FYI, on my commute to work in Los Angeles everyday I pass this huge billboard on the side of the freeway that says "Where Is The Birth Certificate?" -- just thought you all might want to know the issue isnt dead here either. The length of time this question is allowed to sit out there without an answer is staggering.
Honestly, although I can't watch the vid, I have serious doubts about Obama's legitimacy due to the fact that he refuses to provide the birth certificate. This problem could be resolved easily through...transperancy.
If Obama is found to be foreign born and consequently ineligable to be the POTUS, it would tear this country apart. Combine every race riot America has ever experienced and the end sum would not even begin to approach the inferno that would burn our cities to the ground.
