Re: Hillary Clinton began the “birther” debate years ago
My theory? She’s part of the progressive elite crowd and was told to STFU and she’d get hers. Notice how her investigation kind of went cold pretty quick? They’re all in cahoots...those evil Progressive NWO POS’s!!
I guess that the liberal AP is trying to muddy the water again. The issue of where he was born is secondary to how does Obama satisfy the requirement to be a "natural born" citizen when his father was not a citizen of the United States?
Many other questions about this man are on the table, like where did he get his funding throughout his career? Did he hold dual citizenship? Where are his writings? How has he explained his recycled Connecticut social security number? ...and so on.
Oh NOOOOOOOO!! You mean Republicans might actually be FORCED to take a STAND...pick a SIDE...show some SPINE!!! WoW!! Talk about some they are not used to!!!!
Who watches the MSM? Most of the MSM watchers are not very informed. They spend most of their time watching sports and drinking beer!
Though no one in the GOP is asking, this would be my advice to candidates at this time. Use the democratic playbook about “personal belief” and tie to his adminstrative style:
THough I personally believe that Obama was born in Hawaii as he claims, there is a growing percentage of people in this country who believe otherwise. The question is WHY is this number growing? I believe people question the Birth Certificate largely because Obama could simply address the concerns by paying the 15 dollars to release his long form birth certificate that Hawaiian officials say exist. It is his lack of transparency both in his personal life and his public administration that is the problem. It appears that he is covering up something because he has not released his long form OR his transcripts from colleges among many other personal documents that other presidents have released despite embarassment (Gore, Kerry and Bush’s grades for example were hardly complementary).
More importantly, this lack of transparency can be seen in his administration as the Justice Department, ATF, and other key agencies refuse to release emails and documents requested by Congress, the checks and balances established by the constitution.
Exactly. And how the liberal ‘dumbing down of America’ has been successful.
They need to speak with one voice and tell these media personalities to stop this insanity! Ask the interviewer why they are not curious to even know the name of the hospital and the name of the doctor who delivered baby Barry!
BLAME THE MEDIA FOR THEIR MASSIVE INCOMPETENCE FOR KEEPING THIS ISSUE ALIVE!
This is all GOP "Leaders" need to do on a continuous non-stop 24/7 basis until Barry releases his birth records.
Most people have not yet learned of the SS# controversy. If you couple the two annomolies together I think a whole lot of people may raise a few eyebrows because one controversy could be just a conspiracy theory to most. More than one shows a trend and would gather much more attention and create doubt about the current holder of the office of the president.
That is the media’s plan....keep it impossibly convoluted, cast it in an absurd nonsensical light.
Example: that ridiculing CRAP they like to throw out: “Are you saying that in 1961, there was a conspiracy to place two birth announcements in the Honolulu Observer because Obama’s mother KNEW he would run for president one day?!?!”
How insulting...this is a calculated red herring smokescreen, all by design.
They repeat such pablum and echo each other...trying to drown out the truth.
BREAKING NEWS FROM CHARLES BABINGTON OF AP...George Stephanopoulos is the only one who's actually seen and has in his possession the Obama Birth Certificate!
Isn't it interesting how members of the MSM have so many different versions of the facts. What Stephanopoulos showed was one of the FOUR different versions of the COLB, calling it "The Certificate".
O initially had the burden of proving his eligibility and he satisfied that burden at the state level when he signed (or otherwise caused to be completed) the various state primary certifications.
The burden then shifted to the Congress at the federal level pursuant to 3USC15 to challenge his eligibility and they sat on their hands like a bunch of timid school girls (no offense to our FR ladies).
Notwithstanding the several lawsuits, the fact we raised hell with each member of Congress prior to the Joint Session, and the absence of credible evidence he was even a citizen, each and every member of Congress in essence gave us the finger. And they continue to draw a paycheck on the basis of their sworn oath to defend the Constitution.
Hopefully, Trumps investigators will come up with some solid evidence.
I don’t believe Obama and I don’t think it’s a “fringe” thing.
FUBO and yo mama!
Even if Barry Soetoro aka Barack Hussein Obama had been birthed in the Lincoln Bedroom of the White House he is NOT a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN.
When you have 30 to 40% or more of Americans (that is millions of people) who believe something or suspect something, the issue stops being “fringe”.
Trump is not a Republican. Do not encourage him to run on the GOP ticket, or we are going to be stuck choosing between far-left Obama, and left-wing Trump. Trump can run with the birther conspiracy on the Democratic ticket, which is where he belongs ideologically.
As Rush has said before, "he's the least qualified in every room he enters!"
Well, they've allowed the message to get hijacked by "Where's the Birth Certificate?" billboards and bumper stickers. As such, there's virtually nobody of any influence talking about the "two citizen parent" issue. This argument has yet to leave the ground. And when Obama finally gets around to showing what is likely a perfectly valid Hawaiian long form BC, the controversy will have been effectively ended and those who continue to argue the two citizen parent requirement will be further marginalized as unhinged cranks.
