What is the rebuff or 'counter' to this long statement by Mr. Leo Rugiens?

It reads faster than it looks like it would... here it is:

BARRY SOETORO aka BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

IS A

USURPER

He is not eligible to be

President of the United States

because he is not a Natural Born Citizen

as required by Article Two, Section One, Clause Five of the United States Constitution.

This is a fact REGARDLESS of

where he was born (Mombasa, Hawaii, Chicago, Mecca or Mars).

He is not eligible

because he was not born of

TWO PARENTS

BOTH OF WHOM WERE UNITED STATES CITIZENS

AT THE TIME OF HIS BIRTH

as required by the Constitution.

His father, who did not live in the United States for more than a couple of years, was a subject/citizen

of Kenya/Great Britain at the time of Barack’s birth and afterwards, AND further, as Barack himself admitted on his website during the 2008 campaign, Barack was therefore born SUBJECT TO THE GOVERNANCE OF GREAT BRITAIN.

Here is a direct quote from Obama's "Fight the Smears/Fact Check" 2008 website:

‘When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children…’ “

The FACT that he was not born of TWO US CITIZEN PARENTS is all that matters. The question of his birth certificate is a distraction (a distraction fostered by Obama’s supporters?) that ought not to occupy our time and resources.

Also, it is possible that he is not a United States

citizen at all through his mother if he was born in Kenya, as three witnesses have testified. The reason is because his mother could not pass her US citizenship on to her son because she did not live continuously in the United States for five full years after her fourteenth birthday as required by the US immigration law in effect during that period of time.

His usurpation can only be corrected (1) by Congress through his Impeachment and Removal [something which will never happen in a Congress controlled by Pelosi/Reid], or (2) it can be

corrected by his resignation, which could happen if the public pressure on him to resign becomes great enough, or (3) by his removal by the United States Supreme Court affirming a Quo Warranto decision of the United States Federal District Court for the District of Columbia [which process Attorney General Eric Holder would never allow to even begin] or (4) by an amendment to the Constitution,

which will never happen because that again would require the agreement of a Congress controlled by Pelosi/Reid.

HERE IS THE QUESTION WHICH EVERY AMERICAN CITIZEN SHOULD BE ASKING HIS OR HER CONGRESSMAN AND SENATORS

“During the 2008 election, then Senator Obama published a statement at his website which said that his birth status was ‘governed’ by the British Nationality Act of 1948. Can you please tell me, and the American people, how a person governed - at birth - by British law, can be a natural born citizen of the United States and thus constitutionally eligible to be President of the United States?”

    Because British Law doesn't trump US Law. We fought a war over that, and we won. US law is the one that counts. And US law, as understood by the founders and interpreted by court cases almost without exception, says that parentage doesn't matter if the child is born on US soil.

    Otherwise, a country could pass a law saying that anyone who can trace ancestry back to that country is a citizen of that country. Say, Italy -- and no one of Italian descent could ever be president of the US.

    ADDED: To clarify, Chester Arthur's father was Irish, born in Ireland.

    first off the definition of "natural born citizen" is not clearly defined, but is widely accepted to mean a person born in the United States or a territory later entered into the union. this rough definition was agreed on when Chester A. Arthur was elected despite the fact that his father was born in the territory which later became new mexico. basically the citizenship of the parents is completely irrelevant so long as the child is born in the union.

    The 14th Amendment states that anyone born in the US is a natural born citizen and subject to US law.
