'Unproven-President' Obama Says, For First Time, 'Don't Question My Citizenship'

Obama's prayer: 'Don't question my citizenship'
Raises issue of eligibility in speech at annual breakfast gathering

President Obama today at the National Prayer Breakfast raised the issue of his own eligibility for office – saying that people shouldn't be questioning his "citizenship."
Talking about the issue of "civility," he said, "Now, I am the first to confess I am not always right. Michelle will testify to that. But surely you can question my policies without questioning my faith, or, for that matter, my citizenship."
The questions, however, over Obama's "citizenship," actually go to the core of the American republic. Multiple lawsuits have challenged that he is not qualified for the Oval Office under the Constitution's requirement that U.S. presidents be a "natural born citizen."
The plaintiffs – who run into the hundreds so far and who still have a number of cases pending at the appelllate level – have alleged that failing to meet that constitutional requirement means he actually is a usurper, with no actual authority to be president.
On a forum page at The Hill newspaper, one commenter wrote that the president has only himself to blame for the questions.
"Personally I am no birther … but I am curious as to why Obama continues to beat on this issue .. is it a political ploy by his handlers to continue to use this as a divisive issue? To try and embarrass a certain segment of the population? And if not, why doesn't he just provide the certificate and end all the speculation for the conspirators once and for all? Obama has certainly been a little less than forthcoming on his grades, his Harvard review publications and many other accomplishments…"
The reference apparently was the first time the issue has been addressed by Obama, even though he did not provided any answers. His press secretary, Robert Gibbs, repeatedly has ridiculed questions related to the subject, and the White House itself has declined to respond to any of a multitude of questions submitted by WND over months on the issue.
-------------------------------------------------------
This has to be significant - the no-certificate issue being for the first time officially recognized by the unknown quantity himself. The chances of the controversy ever fading away after that are absoluely nil. Interesting also to note that, according to the quoted non-'birther' commenter at "The Hill" newspaper, any who do question whats-his-name are "conspirators". Well, it is probably safe to assume then that there are millions of "conspirators" in the U.S.
NWO Constitutional crisis with an end to it's destruction in the workings? That day may have just gotten a bit closer. fyi
