Why did nelson mandela spend so much time in prison?
Because he was part of a terrorist organization. The ANC.
The ANC however only commenced with an "armed struggle" after all attempts at dialogue with the white oligarchy (apartheid regime/dictatorship) were met with state violence and repression.
You could say that the ANC's armed struggle was justified because the government of the time denied people the right to vote on the basis of race.

A Birth Certificate is a legal document saying where (in what country) you were born and when; it also says to whom you were born (the names of your birth mother and father). It is an important document because when a person is older, they will need to provide verification of citizenship (necessary for getting a job, getting married, getting a passport, etc).
If an illegal alien has a baby with a us citizen can he be on the birth certificate?
Marrying a U.S. citizen and having children resulting from the marriage DOES NOT automatically award citizenship or permanent resident status to an alien, especially one who is deemed to be in the U.S. illegally. The non-citizen must follow the prescribed procedures as required by federal law through USCIS. The children ARE citizens if they were born in the United States OR if one of the parent is a U.S. citizen (not just a Resident, but a Citizen).
Once a citizen child reaches 21, they can then act as a sponsor for their parent to obtain Legal Residency. However, note that it is not possible to have an illegal alien obtain legal residency unless they leave the country first - that is, you can't come to the U.S. illegally, then have someone sponsor you to stay. You must leave the country, have someone sponsor you, then re-enter on a valid visa.]
Personal Experience My husband and I have been married for six years and we have two kids, the oldest is five, and my husband is still not legal. I've told immigration just how important it is that he get his papers because of this and they said it doesn't matter how many kids he has, yada yada. They are culeros.
If the guy only has children that are US citizens, and no one else, he probably will have to wait for them to grow up and petition for him.
How long does it take to get newborn's birth certificate?
I'm pretty sure the timeframe varies by state. My state (Louisiana) didn't send my son's to me until he was almost 9 months old. I'm not sure if that's usually how long it takes, or because the vital records department was swamped at the time (even in 2007) due to Hurricane Katrina. I want to say, though, that it seemed like they told me 6 months was the wait time. I got his social security card before his birth certificate!
Biological father deceased not on birth certificate can step father adopt?
A child can only have two legal guardians, meaning the biological father would have to either give up his rights voluntarily or lose them through the court system in order for the stepfather to adopt the child.
Do you pay for birth certificate?
Yes. It is now a common practice for courts to order DNA tests to determine paternity. It doesn't matter if you're not on the birth certificate.
Can you enter the US with a us birth certificate from Canada?
No, to your question about an expired passport. I'm sure you can't mean "expired birth certificate", even if that's what your wording suggests. However, a birth certificate alone won't get you into the USA.
Do you have to present a birth certificate to use a passport?
You do not need to present a birth certificate to use a passport for its intended purpose. A passport alone is sufficient proof of nationality/citizenship. You may need to present a birth certificate in order to apply for a passport.

Who your legally file birth certificates for newborns?
The laws vary from state to state, but for the most part, the mother or father cannot do this. It is the hospital that files the birth certificate. The physician or midwife will get the information about the parents' names and then complete the rest of the information about when and where the baby was born: birth weight, time of birth, etc. The hospital then submits the form to the state's Department of Vital Records, the state's Department of Health, or whichever agency maintains these documents. Many hospitals will give a souvenir copy of the birth record to the parents, but this is usually not an official document. Once the official birth certificate information is submitted from the hospital (and these days, it tends to be submitted to the state electronically), it takes about two to three weeks for the certificate to be registered and placed on file in the appropriate state office.
There are exceptions to this procedure: one is if a birth did not occur at a hospital with a doctor in attendance (doctors can file the needed information); in some states, the birth parent(s) may go to probate court to register the birth, but their word alone is not enough. They must provide signed affidavits from parties other than themselves, verifying that the birth did occur, the time, the place, etc. But since procedures vary from state to state, you may want to check with the particular state in which you reside, to find out their rules.
Can a father who isn't on a child's birth certificate take them from the birth mother?
United States
First let's clear the question of legal authority: a father cannot "take" children from their mother. Laws that allowed that degree of authority by a man over a woman have been off the books since at least the nineteenth century.
You have not mentioned marital status, whether the father's paternity has been established legally or if there are any existing court orders. It will be assumed the parents are not married. The presence or absence of a name on a birth certificate is not a deciding factor since paternity can be established by a DNA test irrespective of the information, or lack thereof, on a birth certificate.
An unmarried father has no right to keep the child from her mother unless there is a court order to that effect. He has no personal legal authority to keep the child. In the absence of any order, if he takes the child and fails to return the child to the mother she should call the police.
Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in most states until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must establish his paternity by signing the birth certificate at the time of birth (waiving DNA testing rights) which must be done with mother's consent.
If he doesn't sign the birth certificate then he must seek another way to establish his paternity and that is done through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court. Once paternity is established in court, the father can request visitations or custody through the court. If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.
