The liberal LA Times may have hit on a reason for the "sudden" presentation of the so called birth certificate, to distract from the real issues while protesting that he REALLY wants to debate them. I don't think the LA Times meant it that way but it DOES make sense.

I had some suspicion that he was using this as a “rope a dope”.

However, sigh, there's this bunch of, well, you know, different kind of fixated people distracted by something as trivial as whether he's legally qualified to be president of the United States, as he has been for the past 827 days. The birth certificate document released on the White House Web Site has alot of issues. Too many. I think the WH wants to keep this alive until the elections, discredit their opponents and just gave fresh meat for that.

The plan was to turn the table on Trump and make him release his tax returns.
But the document has already been resolved as fake, layered/edit PDF file.

No, the LA Times has been Faked Out! It's a Badly Done PDF Document File on the White House Website. The layers have not been synced into one "picture" within the PDF Document File.
A "Scanned In" picture would have No Layers. And this looks scanned in as if it had been from a binder, but the Layers are the key to it's veracity.
The LA Times has been Faked Out.
'Mike Wallace' like fake document ALERT!

Don’t be fooled that the LA Times has changed stripes in any way, still very left — but they do allow this blog on their website. “Top of the Ticket” appears in on-line opinion section of LA Times.

What's really behind his inevitable decision 1. The threat of new laws in states requiring documentation in order for him to be on the ballot in 2012.
2. The upcoming hearing in the Ninth Circuit.
3. Continuing pressure from the citizen media.
4. Poll numbers.

What it really demonstrates is that he and all his supporters knew the COLB was NOT a BC, and they still persisted in saying that it was. They will not concede anything unless they are absolutely pummeled on it. It also demonstrates why Jan Brewer, John McCain, etc were wrong. An actual BC had not been shown, and those types of Republicans would let him get away with passing off a COLB.

Hmmmm....
So the President of the United States, with the economy tanking, gas prices spiking, three wars ongoing, China ascending, and terrorist threats all around, takes time out to go on national television to announce his birth certificate.

Rather than simply post it on the White House website, Obama took six minutes of presidential time to visit the White House briefing room, where all the important media folks hang out waiting for their next important broadcast messenger assignment. Such a visit to such an important place by such an important person is guaranteed to attract maximum attention. I didn't see this. Does anyone know if he marched into the briefing room holding one of the copies he obtained?

I wonder if the LA Slimes used this same type of argument about Dan Rather's "fake, but accurate" Bush TANG documents.
I doubt it.....

What caused the Pres to release this PDF file? I suppose Donald Trump contributed to this, but the poll numbers recently showed that only 38% of the population believed he was a U.S. Citizen. No matter what President 0 releases, he can’t seem to be credible to most Americans. Why is that you ask? Well, he comes across so phony, pretentious, heartless and un-American!

How hard is it to fake a birth certificate?
The real question is how much it costs to find someone to fake it.

IMHO, I think the author is wrong. Obama did it too soon. He should have waited until Sept. of 2012 to release it. That way, it would have kept the goofy issue alive throughout the GOP primary, causing a major distraction and damage to whoever would end up being the nominee.
By releasing it this early, he's effectively guranteed the issue won't be on the radar next year.
An unforced error, in other words, but I'll take it.

He’s proactively trying to reinforce his credibility in advance of the release of Corsi’s book.
