I don't disagree with you at all, and that was not the purpose of my comment. I had to produce two documents to get my driver's license.
All of the folks that are screaming and pounding their keyboards assume that nobody has seen a certified copy of Obama's birth record. I happen to believe that it has been seen. I happen to believe (for the life of me I can't figure out why) that President Bush and our CIA, FBI and others have made sure that the man they are giving the world's security secrets to is entitled to receive same. It is extremely disturbing to think that they have been so reckless as to let this little detail pass them by.
One can almost believe that there is only one political party masquerading as a two-party system. It answers why they are (seemingly) covering for each other.
Justa, your instincts are great but I disagree with you.
Even the President does not have the right to view Obama's birth certificate without a legal reason to do so. Can you imagine the outcry if the White House, FBI or CIA demanded that a Hawaiian government official (guaranteed to be a Democrat) produce his BC behind the scenes? The fact is, it HASN'T happened.
There are too many uneasy questions about this matter for me. His mother an airheaded white leftist, cavorting with a married black African and having a child with him. Remarrying an Indonesian and moving to Indonesia. Letting the stepfather enroll Obama in a madrassa using the Indonesian surname, and stating (this has been proven) that he was an Indonesian citizen. Rumors that Obama, while at Occidental college, claimed to be a foreign student and received financial aid reserved for foreign students -- he would've had to show evidence for this aid. Rumors that he traveled on an Indonesian passport while a young adult.
I can easily view his mother being PROUD that her son was not an American when she was a dumb young leftist, proud that his father and stepfather were non-white leftists from other countries, proud that he lived and was schooled in a non-Western school and country, proud that he had a non-American passport.
I can also view, from Obama's perspective, that he feels like a native-born American. He is not the lamebrain like his mother. Though a leftist, he believes he is a true-blue American. And in essence, he is. But that doesn't change the facts, if true, that he might not have been born in the USA, and that his parents might have deliberately changed his citizenship. All of which would make him Constitutionally ineligible, for life, to be President.
