		<description><![CDATA[OK folks, Team Obama and its allied MSM have finally responded to Leo Donofrio&#039;s Supreme Court position that Obama is not an Article II &quot;natural born citizen&quot; -- proceeding from phase 1 (ignore) to phase 2 (ridicule) now to phase 3 (respond with legal points) ... on the way to phase 4 (acceptance).

Team Obama&#039;s legal argument, from OpEdNews -- http://www.opednews.com/articles/Is-Barack-Obama-Natural-Bo-by-Hargrove-081207-817.html -- in a nutshell is as follows: 

The Framers elected not to define &quot;natural born citizen,&quot; except by exempting themselves, which self exemption &quot;could be due the fact that they were not born in the United States without regard to whether or not they had been subject to British jurisdiction,&quot; and the Framers&#039; lack of concern about dual citizenship or loyalties is shown by their only requiring Presidents to have been residents in the United States for 14 years -- meaning an eligible candidate born in the United States still could have resided under the jurisdiction of another country for 21 years or more; and even if the Framers WERE concerned about split loyalties, those were intended to be addressed on a &quot;case by case basis&quot; -- and it would not be reasonable to conclude that Obama would have British loyalty since the British Citizenship conferred on him at birth was only &quot;due to his biological relationship to an estranged and unfamiliar father.&quot;  

Team Obama concludes that the Framer&#039;s definition of &quot;Natural Born Citizen&quot; is the same as &quot;Citizen&quot; meaning all that is required is birth in the United States, even if neither parent is an American Citizen. 

I&#039;d say, if that&#039;s all they got, Leo&#039;s case is a slam dunk!]]></description>
