Indonesian Constitution, concerning adopting foreigners
[Indonesian Constitution, concerning adopting foreigners]
zhou tay wrote in Pajamas Media:
Article 7
(1) A foreign woman who is married to an Indonesian citizen shall be granted Indonesian nationality within a year's time, if at that time she has announced that she is willing to do so, except if she is granted Indonesian citizenship and still has another citizenship, it must not be allowed to be made public.
(2) With the exception in paragraph 1 above, a foreign woman that is married to an Indonesian will be granted Indonesian [citizenship] a year after her marriage, if within a year her husband does not declare to withdraw his Indonesian nationality. Only that declaration in which the husband shall not become as having no nationality at all can be declared and make him lose his nationality.
(3) If one of the declarations mentioned in paragraph 1 or 2 has already been declared, then no others may be declared.
(4) This announcement/declaration must be pronounced before the court or other Indonesian Representative in the area where that person is living.
Article 2
(1) A foreign child below the age of 5 who has been adopted by an Indonesian shall be granted Indonesian citizenship, if the court says this is legal in the juridiction in which the adopted parents live.
(2) The legal motion by the court must be requested by the adopted parents within a year after the adoption process, or within a year after this bill took effect.
If Obama was truly adopted by Lolo Soetoro, well, the marriage system between an Indonesian man and a foreign woman will make the children of her previous marriage become Indonesian, but of course the father must make this so. And if you want to put your child in an Indonesian public school, if you're a foreigner, you just can't, because the Indonesian constitution forbids that.
Article 31
(1) Tiap-tiap warga negara berhak mendapat pengajaran.
(2) Pemerintah mengusahakan dan menyelenggarakan satu sistem pengajaran nasional, yang diatur dengan undang-undang.
Translated, that becomes:
(1) Every Indonesian citizen must be educated.
(2) The Government shall establish and run one national education system, that is ruled by law.
Now here's the key: only Indonesian citizens have the right to have an education in Indonesia. For foreigners, education must be in the International school until the university level. They must have permission from the Indonesian government. After I learned the meaning of "warga negara" . . .
Supreme Court has not yet demanded Obama's BC
"SUPREME COURT'S SOUTER TELLS OBAMA TO PRODUCE BIRTH CERTIFICATE"
- THIS HEADLINE IS FALSE AND MISLEADING.
[... a] translation of what SCOTUS tells us on their webpage as far as Berg's case:
"Berg filed a lawsuit in the Third Circuit, which means in a federal court somewhere in PA or NJ (seeking to require Obama to disclose the birth certificate). The Third Circuit denied that suit (on the basis that Berg doesn't have standing). Berg applied to SCOTUS for a writ of cert -- this just asks SCOTUS to take a look at the merits of the case that got dismissed in the lower court. SCOTUS gives Obama until Dec. 3 [Dec. 1] to respond to the application for a writ of cert. While SCOTUS is deciding whether to grant the writ and to then take a look at the merits (i.e., whether to decide if Obama has to produce the birth certificate), Berg files an application for an injunction -- I assume an injunction to delay the election until Obama shows the birth certificate. That application is denied on Nov. 3 and the election continues. SCOTUS has not yet decided whether to grant the writ or not. By Dec. 3 [Dec. 1], Obama may or may not respond to the application for a writ of cert."
In the Berg case, it is only after SCOTUS grants the writ of cert that SCOTUS will take up the issue of whether Obama has to produce the birth certificate. That's the thing Berg is asking for, and right now that's not even being considered by SCOTUS, they're still on the issue of whether to take the case or not.
RELEASE THE VAULT!
Slimguy notes, "Note carefully the writ only has to be responded to by that date [Dec. 1] which means either produce the document or file a motion of some type as to standing or such for dismissal or even a delay motion. I am leaning toward the idea that the court might deny standing and refer the issue to the Electoral College as the one who does have standing in this issue."
Andy Martin wrote, "McCain electors should 'jam up' the electoral college with parliamentary procedures and demands for production of Barack Obama's original, typewritten 1961 birth certificate (certificate of live birth)."
