This whole thing is likely to play out like “The Emperor’s New Clothes” only in this case, the Emperor is in on the scam. Unfortunately for him, the numbers of people noting that he’s naked grow daily. At some point, preferably sooner rather than later, the numbers will be sufficiently substantial that someone with enough clout will dare to ask the appropriate question and demand answers. At that point, the whole thing will come undone.
I have said since the election that removing him from office would necessitate first discrediting him to the point that much of his support would be eroded and then the questions would be asked. That is coming about.

BRAVO! I do the same thing, with both the phone solitications and the "surveys" they send as a fundraising medium. In fact, I've offered the GOP $5,000 if they act to resolve BHO's eligibility before Nov. 2010. (I guess they don't need the money.)
Speaking of money, Tshirt proceeds go to support the brave souls fighting to defend the "natural born citizen" clause of the US Constitution:
