Supreme Court Denies Obama Eligibility Challenge, For Seventh Time
Tuesday, 2008-12-23; 03:29:24
Justice Anthony Kennedy of the Supreme Court has denied a pair of challenges to Obama’s eligibility to be president. What’s pretty ridiculous is apparently this amounts to the seventh challenge to Obama’s eligibility to be brought before the court.
Both challenges contend that Obama is a a citizen of Kenya or Indonesia, and thus is not a “natural-born citizen” of the U.S. (This reasoning seems identical to a previous challenge that contended the same thing.)
Obama is a citizen of the U.S., having been born in Hawaii. His campaign has released his original birth certificate, and it’s been verified over and over by the Hawaii Department of Health.
Friggin’ internet conspiracy theorists.
