Barry should resign and go back to Kenya since that village is missing its idiot.
2 :
I think he needs to be removed from office since he was foregin by virture of the scholarship and enrollment he is admitting he is not a US Citizen
3 :
Is the reason that you do not supply a link to your 'source' that you know this is a hoax? See the Snopes.com link below.
4 :
When I type into google all I get are a bunch of blogs saying that this is from the AP. There are no links via Yahoo to show that this was written by the AP This story is found to be a hoax. Link here: http://www.aipnews.com/talk/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=11308&posts=8
5 :
Nothing in the constitution says you have to be a US citizen for your entire life to be granted access to the Presidency. You have to be a natural born citizen, 35 years of age or older, and a citizen/resident for the last 14 years...

I heard that so long ago, I forgot it. It's bs. May God Bless you and May God Save us from the Axis of evil (Bush & Satan)
8 :
About time! What other secrets does Mr. Barry Soetoro have?
9 :
I think that anyone who could think for themselves and read something besides the "lame street media" already knew he was a foreigner who was unable to legally be elected. Sorry for the rest of you. Phil -- Just what do you think a "natural born citizen" means? Since Obama's father was never an American citizen, Jr. doesn't qualify by that requirement alone.
10 :
Keep dreaming buddy. Good luck with Obama Derangement syndrome.
11 :
He is black so that bypasses and supercedes all restrictions.
12 :
An April Fool's joke from last year? From a nonexistent group? Try finding a copy of the Occidental College transcript. It was never released. Try finding this alleged case on the Supreme Court Docket. It doesn't exist. It's a hoax. Do a bit of googling before you post nonsense that you come across. You'll look and feel smarter. http://amfoi.wordpress.com/ http://www.factcheck.org/askfactcheck/print_has_a_smoking_gun_been_found_to.html http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/birthers/occidental.asp

1) Did those others show their records? Can you prove it? Show me a website with John McCain's college records. 2) If he published them, and you didn't like them, wouldn't you just say they were faked like you do his birth certificate? 3) Why should he bother?

how does a foreign student from lndonesia become P0TUS?
how does a foreign student from lndonesia become P0TUS?
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 ... The transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro, received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia while 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 this scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship. This document provides the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking - that he is NOT a natural-born citizen of the United States - necessary to be President of these United States. Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya , here we see that there is no record of him ever applying for US citizenship.. 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 on-going but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused comment on this matter.

How to make friends with an American High School teens? Help! I'm a foreign exchange and looking for friends!?
I'm a foreign exchange student from Indonesia who right now currently live in Utah,USA. American high school is pretty much different from high school back there in my country and right now I'm kinda having a hard time to make friends with people. Do you guys have any advice how to make friends with an American? Because teens here tend to be ignorant and actually I don't have any idea what to talk to with teens here or any topics that I have to talk to. Thanks. Appreciate it

In america we like talking about how hard our lives are. Like not in a dramatic way, just a sarcastic way. Start a conversation with, "Dude, Im so tired" or "My english teacher is crazy" and then over exaggerate what happens. Also use as many cheesy puns as necessary to gain attention, if you establish yourself as the funny kid from another country people will love you. At least everyone in San Diego area would. Hope this helps.

First, your attitude will not help you! "Because teens here tend to be ignorant" You think they don't know that you view yourself as superior? Of course they do. Contrary to what you believe, teens here are NOT ignorant. Well, some are, but I bet the percentage of ignorant teens in YOUR country is just as high! You probably just don't go to school with them or associate with them. Here in the U.S., our schools must educate EVERYONE, regardless of ability or motivation. I've hosted and repped exchange students for 14 years now and I can't tell you the number of times I've seen that attitude displayed! So, can the attitude! That's your first start. In canning the attitude, be respectful and friendly. You do NOT have to agree with everything and like everything, but do make sure that people know you appreciate the opportunity to be here and that you are learning things! Participate! Join a club, a sports team, the band, choir -- something! Teen life in the U.S. tends to revolve around school and church -- and those are usually intermixed. Invite! Don't just sit back and wait for people to call you. Why don't you call them? Cook an Indonesian dinner and invite some friends over. As to what to talk about? Pay attention to what's going on around you. How did the football team do Friday night? What was the latest dumb thing a celebrity or politician said? What movie do you want to see? What did you watch on TV last night? How about the last test that teacher so-and-so gave? Ask your host family for help! That's what they are here for! If they don't know you're having difficulties, they can't help! Maybe they can arrange for a student or two to "mentor" your for a month or so -- we have that program set up in our school. Our kids "meet" them through e-mail, MSN, etc. before they even arrive. Good luck and hang in there -- this can be difficult, but it can also be a great experience if you work at it!
