Dear Orly - please investigate the legitimacy of these 6 US Presidents...
I just read where Orly claims that since Obama had only one parent born in the USA he is not qualified to be US President.

If she's going to go down that path I hope she investigates the other 6 presidents who also happen to have non-USA parents

With Barack Obama's election, immigrant parents from all over the world can now honestly tell their American-born children that they, too, can dream of one day becoming president. It's a cultural as much as as a racial barrier that's fallen: As the son of a Kenyan man, Barack Obama will be the first U.S. president with a parent born outside the British Isles or Canada.

Only six other U.S. presidents had a foreign-born parent. Mr. Obama will be the first in nearly ninety years, since President Herbert Hoover was inaugurated in 1929.

Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) is the only president born of two immigrants, both Irish.
Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809), whose mother was born in England
James Buchanan (1857-1861) Father born in Ireland (he was a bad president, would be nice to wipe him off the books).
Chester Arthur (1881-1885) - Irish Father.
Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921) - English Mother
Herbert Hoover (1929-1933) - Canadian Mother.

4. even the Dark Lord went to lengths to prove he wasn't his.
Turns out he was a Fourth Circle sycophant with delusions of grandeur.
