From today's CNN Political Ticker:

WASHINGTON (CNN) — The Supreme Court has rejected an emergency appeal
from a retired lawyer in New Jersey who questioned Barack Obama's
eligibility to be president, because he had dual British-American
citizenship at birth.

The justices without comment on Monday refused to intervene in the
November 4 presidential election, dismissing the claims of Leo
Donofrio, a resident of East Brunswick, New Jersey.

In his appeal, Donofrio claims that because Obama's father was a
Kenyan-born British subject, the president-elect does meet the
Constitution's requirement that the president be a "natural born
citizen" of the United States. Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961. His
mother was a U.S. citizen, born in the United States.

Many legal analysts questioned Donofrio's argument.

"The law has always been understood to be, if you are born here,
you're a natural born citizen," said Thomas Goldstein, founder of the
Scotusblog.com Web site, and a lawyer who has argued numerous cases
before the high court. "And that is particularly true in this case,
when you have a U.S. citizen parent like Barack Obama's mother."
