Thank you, xtina. Everything appears to be in order here and is good enough for me :=][/quote]

Thanks for the links.

Reminds me of my visits to Hawaii. I didn’t think that I would like Hawaii before I visited. But Hawaii is great. The weather is perfect and the lifestyle is so relaxed over there.

We have met the birthers, and the birthers are us
http://opinion.latimes.com/opinionla/2011/04/we-have-met-the-birthers-and-the-birthers-are-us.html

On April 21, Bauer said he asked the president’s outside counsel, Judy Corley, a lawyer at the firm Perkins Coie, to contact the Hawaii Department of Health to find out what additional requirements would be necessary. The following day, April 22, Obama signed a letter to state officials requesting the documents, which they said could be made available the following Monday, April 25. Corley flew to Honolulu, returning the documents to the White House on Tuesday night.

Too bad the President’s lawyer didn’t get to spend a restful weekend enjoying the sights in Honolulu.

Currently, Title 8 of the U.S. Code fills in the gaps left by the Constitution.
Section 1401 defines the following as people who are “citizens of the United States at birth:”

• Anyone born inside the United States *
• Any Indian or Eskimo born in the United States, provided being a citizen of the U.S. does not impair the person’s status as a citizen of the tribe
• Any one born outside the United States, both of whose parents are citizens of the U.S., as long as one parent has lived in the U.S.
• Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year and the other parent is a U.S. national
• Any one born in a U.S. possession, if one parent is a citizen and lived in the U.S. for at least one year
• Any one found in the U.S. under the age of five, whose parentage cannot be determined, as long as proof of non-citizenship is not provided by age 21
• Any one born outside the United States, if one parent is an alien and as long as the other parent is a citizen of the U.S. who lived in the U.S. for at least five years (with military and diplomatic service included in this time)
• A final, historical condition: a person born before 5/24/1934 of an alien father and a U.S. citizen mother who has lived in the U.S.
* There is an exception in the law — the person must be “subject to the jurisdiction” of the United States. This would exempt the child of a diplomat, for example, from this provision.
Anyone falling into these categories is considered natural-born, and is eligible to run for President or Vice President. These provisions allow the children of military families to be considered natural-born, for example.
