| 6/27/2008 7:00:42 AM From: PapaBryant Scopes may be wrong on this one, Keth. There is a real question due to his father's status and any treaty we have for reciprical citizenship. It may be the "thing" that Hillary has up her sleeve (which is why she only "suspended" her campaign. I'm still convinced she'll be the candidate; remember, he isn't officially the candidate until after the convention...) | |

|
| 6/27/2008 11:23:04 AM From: PapaBryant Find it laughable all you want Chi, but if Pater Obama was a Nigerian citizen and Nigerian law grants him citizenship as a result (thus giving him dual citizenship) he's disqualified. Even if he renounces his secondary citizenship he can't run. And no one has looked into this seriously yet. | |

|
| 6/27/2008 12:17:22 PM From: Kethria I thought Obama was born in Hawaii. Which makes him a citizen. Unlike me who was born in the Philippines and had to jump (crawl) through hoops to be "naturalized". | |
|
|
| 6/27/2008 2:32:05 PM From: PapaBryant But does Nigeria recognize him as a citizen because one of his parents was from there? That's the question. The fact he was born on US soil means he is a US citizen, but does his father being a foreign national mean his dad's native country recognize him as theirs also? | |
|
|
| 6/29/2008 6:08:48 AM From: Kethria I guess it depends on the country. I had the option of having triple citizenship. US (dad) Colombian (mom) and Filipino because I was born there. I skipped the Filipino. | |
