I think BHO is very much a US citizen. Born and raised. However, for him to be able to go to school in Indonesia he would have been required to renounce his US citizenship. They're not nearly so nice with aliens as we are it seems. Then, when he applied to Columbia he stated he was a citizen of Indonesia instead of the USA because it's far easier to get in to an Ivy League school as one of...well probably one applicant as opposed to the thousands of US citizens.
Thus he had to commit fraud to get into Columbia and that is why no one has ever seen, nor likely will EVER see a college record, from this most "transparent" of presidents.
Nope.
A child cannot renounce American citizenship. Nor can a parent renounce a minor child's citizenship.
The US allows dual citizenship; Indonesia does not.
He did not attend Columbia as a foreign student. He did not get financial aid as a foreign student.
If I am wrong, please feel free to post proof from a creditable source.
You are absolutely correct about this. This is US law on the subject:
Renunciation of U.S. Nationality
"F. RENUNCIATION FOR MINOR CHILDREN/INCOMPETENTS
Citizenship is a status that is personal to the U.S. citizen. Therefore parents may not renounce the citizenship of their minor children. Similarly, parents/legal guardians may not renounce the citizenship of individuals who are mentally incompetent. Minors seeking to renounce their U.S. citizenship must demonstrate to a consular officer that they are acting voluntarily and that they fully understand the implications/consequences attendant to the renunciation of U.S. citizenship.
G. IRREVOCABILITY OF RENUNCIATION
Finally, those contemplating a renunciation of U.S. citizenship should understand that the act is irrevocable, except as provided in section 351 of the INA (8 U.S.C. 1483), and cannot be canceled or set aside absent successful administrative or judicial appeal."
This means that, were Westwall correct, Pres. Obama would have had to personally applied to revoke his own citizenship
at the age of 6. This would be on record.
I need to leave the room to laugh some more, now...
Yes. It was simply impossible that the president be ONLY a citizen of Indonesia or that he went to college as a foreign citizen.
I don't know why this lie is repeated so often but it doesn't seem to matter how many times the facts are spoon fed to them ...
It could almost be funny were it not so tragic that a small number of whackazoids have invested SO much energy into propagating the myth that our President, the first one since Eisenhower to be elected twice in a row with more than 51% of the NPV, and only one of 6 presidents ever to be elected twice with more than 300 EV both times, is somehow an "alien", a "fake", an "imposter".
It's really kind of sad.
Logic is just lost on these people. They are absolutely beyond help. They really, truly believe that this is a cosmic plot to destroy the USA.
