Santorum doesn’t seem to grasp that the Founding Fathers put the natural born clause into the Constitution for a reason

Obama’s ineligibility: Santorum is an idiot or a liar

Former Senator Rick Santorum does not deserve to be President and should immediately withdraw from the Republican primary race. He is either too dumb to serve or too dishonest.
In response to a question about Barack Obama’s eligibility to be President, Santorum said:
"My understanding is that issue was solved. If there's evidence to the contrary [showing Obama is not eligible], they should bring it forth."
Perhaps Santorum should indeed look at the mountain of evidence implicating Obama as a usurper and felon. Santorum also has no understanding of the Constitution and the natural born citizen prerequisite found in Article II, Section I, Clause 5 and the Supreme Court binding precedent of Minor and Happersett (1874), which requires a US citizen of two U.S. citizen parents at the time of birth as eligibility for the presidency.

Obama was never eligible to be President because his father was Kenyan, which made Obama a British subject at birth with dual allegiance. When that was pointed out to Santorum, he inexplicably responded,
"I don't think that's what the Constitution requires, and he (Obama) was born in the country, so it doesn't matter."
According to Santorum, Anwar al-Awlaki is eligible to be President because he was born in New Mexico. Al-Awlaki is the "spiritual leader" of al-Qaida in the Arabian peninsula, whose sermons at the Dar al-Hijrah Islamic Center in Falls Church, Virginia were attended by two hijackers who carried out the 9/11 attacks, Nawaf al-Hamzi and Hani Hanjour. Likewise, Santorum believes that Fort Hood shooter and al-Awlaki disciple Nidal Malik Hasan is eligible to be President because he was born in Virginia. Santorum doesn’t seem to grasp that the Founding Fathers put the natural born clause into the Constitution for a reason; to prevent those with dual allegiance like Anwar al-Awlaki, Nidal Malik Hasan and Barack Hussein Obama from becoming President. Furthermore, Santorum appears to lack even the most rudimentary ingredients of common sense. Rick, is it an accident that every President since the Revolutionary era has been a natural born citizen with the exception of Obama and Chester A. Arthur, who also hid his birth records? I do not believe that Santorum is an idiot. He is simply following orders from the Republican leadership to lie to the American people. All members of Congress and the leadership of the Democrat and Republican parties know that Obama is an illegal President, has a stolen Social Security Number and has forged his birth documents and Selective Service registration. Republican leaders are covering-up Obama’s crimes because they are more interested in maintaining their own power and prestige than adhering to the Constitution and serving the American people. America’s self-serving politicians, like the nobility of the Middle Ages, consider themselves above the law and treat citizens as serfs who exist only to provide revenue for the non-productive permanent political class. The Republican establishment will continue to ignore Obama’s ineligibility and felonies because, due to cowardice and political correctness, they were derelict in not vetting Obama and have now become willing co-conspirators in the cover-up. They do so because of their complicity, but also because they want to run against Obama in 2012 rather than a potentially stronger candidate like Hillary Clinton. The Republican leadership is also clearing the path for their own ineligible candidate, Marco Rubio. The Republican Party is, quite simply, choosing power over principle; political expediency over the integrity of the Constitution. I hasten to add that Rick Santorum is not unique. All of the Republican candidates have signed on to the Big Lie, to conceal the greatest fraud and crime ever perpetrated on the American people. They are all gutless and dishonest. None of them deserves to be President.
