Alan Keys does not acknowledge Barack Obama as President


According to the Ticket Blog with the Los Angeles Times, Alan Keys has stirred back up the debate about the authenticity of the President’s Birth Certificate. The blog states that Keys “calls Obama a communist and usurper and says he refuses to acknowledge the validity of Obama's inauguration over lingering questions in the minds of many conspiracists about the 44th president's birthplace. The President was born in Hawaii which is a state. This is not the first time the President’s citizenship has been brought into question. After Obama was elected, many conservatives began a campaign to try to prove that the President was not an American Citizen.

The constitution clearly states that a person running for President must be an American Citizen. If the President was not an American Citizen, he would not have been able to run for President, let alone serve in the U.S. Senate. The courts have proved as well as the State of Hawaii that the President is an American Citizen
