Yes, every single eligibility case that has been brought has been found to have no merit. Furthermore, several of them have been so frivolous that the attorneys filing the cases have been reprimanded or sanctioned. Again, I'm going with the Judge Brown who (like every other judge in the country including those on the SCOTUS) knows that President Obama is a natural born citizen. The SCOTUS upheld the lower court ruling that said Wong Kim Ark was a citizen from birth - the opposition said that a SCOTUS ruling in Mr. Wong's favor would allow him to run for president. The SCOTUS agreed - and ruled in Mr. Wong's favor. Wong Kim Ark was as much a citizen as the natural born child of citizen parents - and so is President Obama.

3 professionals with irrelevant credentials who have done an egregiously bad job of analysis vs. an anonymous article which points out the flaws in that analysis. Everyone should look at both and decide for themselves which arguments have more merit, not just succumb to your fallacious appeal to authority. As for WorldNetDaily - their long history of lying is well documented. All Corsi and Farah care about at this point is trying to prop up the collapsing sales of Corsi's book...

The US Constitution, US law, and the courts say different. The idea that any child born in the US can grow up to be the president is a fundamental American value - or didn't you ever learn what it means to be an American?

Stevinski, You can find an actual judge's opinion about why President Obama is, in fact, a natural born citizen in the decision of the Indiana court of appeals in Ankeny v. Daniels here: http://www.in.gov/judiciary/opinions/pdf/11120903… I trust Judge Brown more than I do you. Also, given the numerous lies and factually incorrect statements that birthers have been responsible for to date (including the egregiously naive analysis discussed in this article), I think that the credibility of the State of Hawai'i (which links to the pdf as an image of President Obama's birth certificate on their website) far exceeds that of a bunch of couch-potato pseudo-experts that don't even know the first thing about the suite of techniques used to compress images into pdfs who are decrying artifacts that are clearly the result of a computer algorithm as some sort of evidence of (presumably malevolent) human tampering. A good discussion of the 'layers' can be found here: http://ohforgoodnesssake.com/?p=17334 Further debunking of most (if not all) birther lies can be found here: http://www.obamaconspiracy.org/bookmarks/fact-che… By the way, it seems that the president wasn't disinvited - he simply chose another of the finalist high schools (a decision justified by this article). http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2011/may/10/me…
