Subject: Obama Faces More Questions on Citizenship


To Qualify for Fulbright Foundation Scholarship Obama Had to Claim Foreign Citizenship! (A Smoking Gun?)
( From Liz / Carl Overstreet )

April 02, 2009

AP- WASHINGTON D.C. - In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College. Released today, the transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the school. The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California. The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship. This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking.

The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy and qualification to serve as president. When reached for comment in London, where he has been in meetings with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Obama smiled but refused comment on the issue. Meanwhile, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs scoffed at the report stating that this was obviously another attempt by a right-wing conservative group to discredit the president and undermine the administration's efforts to move the country in a new direction.

Britain's Daily Mail has also carried the story in a front-page article titled, "Obama Eligibility Questioned", leading some to speculate that the story may overshadow economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K.

In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups, Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey. This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as President. Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by citizens demanding proof of Obama's citizenship or qualification to serve as president.

Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending. This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records. Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still ongoing but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter

Won't do much good, I can't see obama stepping down. I can see him burning the Constitution making the citizenship clause moot.

No he will not! and I to can see him burning the Constitution. But if it can be proven that he is not a American citizen (I for one do not believe he is) I am sure we can take legal action to kick he butt out of office! And you can bet the dems will do all they can to fight it.

That's unbelieveable. Dated April 2 and today is May 7 and he is still in office.

Unhappy Re: Received in email

Has anyone been able to verify this? I posted it on another forum for the purpose of verification and have found none. Not that I do not believe it to be true because I do. I just wish that the facts would show themselves more quickly so that we can deal with this mess.

I'm getting some information that it might be a hoax. I am not finding any solid verification, yet. I might have been culpable of passing on an unfounded rumor. My source is pretty solid, but even he thinks, now, that he was fooled.

Problem is, even if he were given the 'boot', there is no way to undo what has been done up to this point. So far the only 'transparency' is being able to see through what the libs are up to.
