Hillary Clinton began the birther movement.
I’m betting African Americans are already aware of that.
This is just anecdotal, but I have never heard any black person discuss the birther issue—it appears to be a controversy among talking heads.
It is a classic media red herring—if Obama were born on Mars it would be irrelevant to this election campaign—and is just another media “controversy” so they can yell “racist Trump” over and over again.
Plus the fact the shock factor of Trump going after the BC has long since passed and happened 2011.
African American Trump supporters know damn well Hillary tried to bring down the first black presidential candidate in 2008 with dirty tricks, which is why they see right through the media/democrat axis trying to (again) paint Trump as a racist, which is backfiring big time. Also the leaked emails that show that she hates Obama’s guts to this day. Michelle Obama’s campaigning might help some, but not nearly enough.
