Ann Coulter was being interviewed by Sean Hannity last night and she succinctly laid out the case against Trump and this resurgent interest in an Obama birth certificate. I've always thought this story was crap from day one. First, as Ann Coulter points out there is fundamentally no difference between the long form birth certificate and short form. They are both certified.
Personally, I think the Obama team is loving the attention being given to it because it gives them an opportunity to force each prospective GOP candidate for President to answer the question and take away vital time from important issues like oh.....the economy,gas prices,the national debt, etc. Trump is making a fool of himself and risks everyone being tarred with his foolishness. To all the "birthers", I ask this: Do you really think ruthless characters like Bill and Hillary Clinton could not have found the evidence and used it against him? The Clinton's of "war room" politics? Those liberal versions of Nixonian politics and paranoia?
If not the Clinton's then how about conservative iconic publications like "Human Events" and "The American Spectator" as Ann Coulter pointed out. I loathe and utterly detest conspiracy theories as they are the product of irrational supposition from incomplete portraits suggesting an inability to differentiate chance and order. The notion that everything is the product of planning is absurd.
The absurdity of this crackpot theory is rooted in the bizarre notion that the infant Obama was identified at birth as a future President and an intense cover up was implemented to shield the truth. All this over a man no one had ever heard of as recent as 2004 before his keynote address at the DNC. John Kerry chose him to deliver the speech, so maybe he was in on the plot, huh?
It's time to stop with the irrational and ignore desperate pleas for attention from media whores like Donald Trump. Our stake in the future of the nation is too important to waste placating the vanity of a man who will leave egg on all our faces.

What exactly would the logistics be if proven beyond any doubt whatsoever that BHO never met the POTUS qualifications?
I'd surmise that impeachment would be out of the question since he never was legally the president. Then what would happen with the presidential line of succession? Biden? In fact, like Nixon, he could resign BUT as one who never met the qualifications for the office, how would resignation even be possible? And taking this to the limit, would all measures that he signed then be nullified?
It's not an argument; it's their caricature.
I did a search on tubgirl and came up with a longgggg thread by rdb3, dated June 3, 2005. That’s a little over 4 months before I joined. I saved it to bookmarks and will have to run through it. I like that kinda stuff...
Gotta run. Legion meeting tonight and have to feed the dog before I leave.
I’d just ask Ann why does Obummer is spending millions to keep his long form BC from being forced to go public. Does the TOTUS know anything?
That was a rough time.
The troll targeted the FReeper canteen threads and several specific posters.
I’ve made an attempt at being invisible in my area.
I keep running into people who remember me.
Shucks, I thought you were sending me invisible ink, but I can’t even see it...
Free Republic should offer a degree in Constitutional Studies. Very clearly expressed SERKIT. There are enough of us who know the truth, that the problem is one of marketing: how do we communicate the message?
World Net Daily has done a good job of marketing a non-truth. “Where's The Birth Certificate” obviously proves nothing, but it is punchy - concise. A birth certificate from a foreign country, presuming Obama’s parents weren't both military citizens, in which case natural born citizenship remains uncertain, would be the only information from a birth certificate showing ineligibility. But a Hawaiian birth certificate does not make Barry eligible, as you pointed out.
I think we need a slogan. How about:
“Our Presidents all have parents with sole allegiance to our nation!”
or
All parents of our presidents were our citizens at the child's birth.
or, from Vattel and Marshall,
“Born on the soil of citizen parents.”
:-)
Bah, you like us.
Ha! I try to slink close to the ground, but it’s hard when you’re 6’1”... Speaking of, that Communist POS is around my height so another reason he should have stood out a little bit...
OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
I never showed Shark my grades, but he knows I was a model, straight-A, Catholic school-girl :0)
It’s easier for me to slink close to the ground as I am shorter.
And while I have hidden in plain sight, I can only do that for so long before someone goes, “Say, aren’t you..?”
You assume honor among these thieves. In such a case as proven ineligibility, Obozo and is shadow government will keep his arab arse in the lap of luxury and power until he’s removed by force of arms.
A .jpeg on the internet is not a document. Especially one with a phony notary seal.
Yep, but you did show me your etchings......and those pretty pink boxers.........
That must have been some special edition that my BIL doesn’t have.
Perhaps fraud (wire, mail, telecommunications) perjury and money laundering during the campaign?
Jalapeno peppers aught to cure the dog.
Maybe.
Our last dog liked the end portions of the peppers.
