Um, will someone let Mr. Castle know that being a "citizen" is not the question at hand.

Why can't this president release his? American
citizens do it by the tens of millions.
All we are saying
is give release a chance

And apparently does not know the difference between a ‘citizen’ and a ‘natural born citizen’.

Is it front page news now? This thread was moderated down yesterday even while it was building steam. I know the moderators have a hard job but changing the topic from front page news to personal/opinion was inappropriate. As it is clearly going viral today. More because what the rest of the audience did, than this one brave lady. And Castle already joined the Specter conference on Cap & Tax. As this Politico article says, Castle's Senate ambitions are smoked if this crowd is representative.
exit82 attended this event and has a compelling report should anyone be interested.

I don’t pick any of those boxes when I post a thread. As long as its in the news section of FR, that’s good enough for me.

This is just more proof that those in office are not
representative of those that put them in office.

These people had the right idea, but they didn’t go far enough with it.
We need to demand that our representatives challenge Obama’s eligibility on our behalf, since apparently they are the only ones with “legal standing”. If we make it a 2010 issue, representatives wishing to be elected could even run on that platform... that they will legally challenge the election... demanding proof of natural born status.

Rush had another of his one-line references to the BC today.

Mostly, I think that is appropriate. A thread needs to be judged based on what else is going during the day and now likely that folks are going to want to see it. Highlighting prevents duplicate threads because people see the article already posted even though it may be several next pages down.
In this case, I found this thread buried in Personal/Bloggers and knew immediately this was big. But Personal/Bloggers cannot be promoted apparently to Front Page or Breaking.. at least I don't know how.. So after giving the original posters 4 hours to fix.. I pushed the thread over to news/activism and credited the old thread, which is kind of stretching rules but it needed to be highlighted. And it worked, the time it was running, several folks grabbed and forwarded so they saw the same thing.

If youre referring to the president, then he is a citizen of the United States. Well, of course the president is a citizen. By the very definition, he has to be.
The question is: is Obama the president?

Yes in Front Page currently.
To: Tanniker Smith
It is technically possible that Obama is NOT EVEN an American citizen. Since his records have not been made public we can’t determine what his actual status is.

Castle is a Rino scumbag.

He might be a citizen now, but he sure was NOT when he was born in KENYA, Mr. Castle! Idiot.
