Dear Son of Africa Please Stop this Unjust War

Enough evidence is available, Bearing in mind that you are the president of the strongest power in the world nowadays, and since Nato is waging an unjust war against a small people of a developing country. This country had already been subjected to embargo and sanctions, furthermore it also suffered a direct military armed aggression during Reagan's time. This country is Libya.

Hence, to serving world peace ... Friendship between our peoples ... and for the sake of economic, and security cooperation against terror, you are in a position to keep Nato off the Libyan affair for good.
-- Mu'aumer Qaddaffi,Leader of the Revolution,Tripoli 5.4.2011
I know what you’re thinking…‘but he was born in Hawaii.’ Yes, yes and even if that were true (None of us knows for sure) Barry Hussein Soetoro, whom Qaddaffi calls Baraka Hussein Abu oumama, has a problem. The problem is with Article II Clause 5 of the United States Constitution.

No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President—Article II,Clause 5 of the United States Constitution


But before I detail president Soetoro’s problem with the constitution please take a look at the letter that Mu'aumer Qaddaffi wrote to “Abu oumama” in the spirit of kinship and as a fellow countryman. (see letter below)

Qaddaffi's Dear Son Letter

Maybe most American are not understanding the startling claim of Qaddaffi’s that NATO and the United States are in the process of overthrowing the government of another country. If that is not surprising enough Mr. Qaddaffi further claims that NATO and the U.S. are supporting al Qaeda in doing so.

But the most troubling thing that Mr. Qaddaffi did in his petition to the president is he appealed to president Soetoro’s biggest problem. Mr. Qaddaffi (probably unbeknownst to him) appealed to the fact that Barry Hussein Soetoro is not a “Natural Born Citizen” of the United States of America.

How so you ask? Qaddaffi’s call to, “Our son” is exactly what the Natural Born Citizen clause was attempting to prevent, a dual allegiance that someone would have if that person was president but he was not born of American parents. This type of birth would cause a conflict of loyalty which would weaken any president’s ability to act uncompromisingly and solely on behalf of the United States of America because of the loyalty to the heritage of his fathers land. (explained in detail here)

Before the Constitution, the closest reference we have to Natural Born Citizen is from the legal treatise “the Law of Nations,” written by Emerich de Vattel in 1758. In book one chapter 19,

§ 212. Of the citizens and natives.

“The citizens are the members of the civil society; bound to this society by certain duties, and subject to its authority, they equally participate in its advantages. The natives, or natural-born citizens, are those born in the country, of parents who are citizens. As the society cannot exist and perpetuate itself otherwise than by the children of the citizens, those children naturally follow the condition of their fathers, and succeed to all their rights.

The society is supposed to desire this, in consequence of what it owes to its own preservation; and it is presumed, as matter of course, that each citizen, on entering into society, reserves to his children the right of becoming members of it.

The country of the fathers is therefore that of the children; and these become true citizens merely by their tacit consent. We shall soon see whether, on their coming to the years of discretion, they may renounce their right, and what they owe to the society in which they were born. I say, that, in order to be of the country, it is necessary that a person be born of a father who is a citizen; for, if he is born there of a foreigner, it will be only the place of his birth, and not his country.”

Also from John M. Yinger’s The Origins and Interpretation of the Presidential Eligibility Clause in the U.S. Constitution: Why Did the Founding Fathers Want the President To Be a "Natural Born Citizen"

Is found two extraordinary reasons why the Constitutional requirement, “Natural Born Citizen” was intended.

1. The John Jay Letter where Mr. Jay wrote, “Permit me to hint, whether it would not be wise & seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government; and to declare expressly that the Command in chief of the American army shall not be given to, nor devolve on, any but a natural born Citizen (emphasis in the original).(5)”
2. Madison's Convention Notes where it is written: the ministers of foreign powers would have and make use of, the opportunity to mix their intrigues & influence with the Election. Limited as the powers of the Executive are, it will be an object of great moment with the great rival powers of Europe who have American possessions, to have at the head of our Governmt a man attached to their respective politics and interests. (source)

Mr. Qaddaffi’s letter to whom he described as, “Our Dear Son” attempts to speak to that which is other than American in president Barry Hussein Soetoro. That is why the founding fathers wrote Article II Clause V of the Constitution and that is why the current president is ineligible to be president according to the constitution.
He knows it. That is why he had the following study by Sarah P. Herlihy written which attempts to undermine the Natural Born Citizen Requirement. (see letter below)

Amending the Natural Born Citizen Requirement Sarah p. Herlihy Feb 22 2006


Barry Hussein Soetoro is not eligible to be president. He knows it. Qaddaffi knows it. All of Africa knows it. The only ones who don’t know it are Americans who have suspended disbelief in order to allow their constitutional republic to be taken from them.
