(CNN) – Donald Trump, the business mogul who continues to claim he is seriously interested in mounting a bid for the White House, says he has doubts about whether President Obama was born in the United States.
In an interview with ABC, Trump said he finds it strange “nobody knew” Obama as a young child in Hawaii.
“Let me tell you, I’m a really smart guy. I was a really good student at the best school in the country. The reason I have a little doubt, just a little, is because he grew up and nobody knew him,” Trump said in the interview that aired Thursday.
“If I got the nomination, if I decide to run, you may go back and interview people from my kindergarten. They'll remember me. Nobody comes forward. Nobody knows who he is until later in his life. It's very strange,” the Celebrity Apprentice host added. “The whole thing is very strange.”
Current Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie has said he was a friend of Obama’s parents in Hawaii and remembers when the future president was born. Abercrombie, a former congressman who became governor last December, vowed to produce an original copy of Obama’s birth certificate but abandoned those efforts earlier this year because it is against state law to release private documents, according to his spokeswoman.

HE IS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. THESE ARE NOT PRIVATE DOCUMENTS.
Gov. Neil Abercrombie has said he was a friend of Obama’s parents in Hawaii and remembers when the future president was born.
Then when it was shown he couldn't have he said he didn't. CNN Could look it up.
I have a little more respect for Donald Trump now.
FIXED!
Yup. Trump has been firing on all cylinders lately.
Bottomline. Trump puts it into the mainstream.
I am glad he has come out with this doubt/questioning on 0bama. I am so disappointed that more people with high exposure and influence, including many in the GOP leadership and/or those whose media reporting is most fair and balanced, have chosen to do the ostrich thing related to the birth/citizenship issue. (and the allegations of 0bama having/using multiple SSNs, etc., etc.)
Hmmm.
I’m glad to see a potential presidential candidate address this issue directly.
Donald Trump has a plain spoken approach to things that could serve him well if he mounts a campaign.
If Trump wanted to throw some chump change at this...pile on some advertising, a couple of high profile constitutional eligibility conferences with the Appuzios, Donofrios and Ms. Ticklys of the world...do some webcasts, hire investigates and issue his own report, and really start pounding the issue, he might even take the usurper down...Be a shoe in for the nomination as the greatest single act of public service and deliverance since Yorktown.
jes sayin..
The Big Boo
P.S. Notice how viscerally the Donald took it almost daring them to call him stupid...would be a very bad move by the WH.
For kicks. Google some kid born in Canada. Send it in to your local newspaper as being born at the local hospital.
That kid is now eligible to run for prez. And can thank you later.
“Donald Trump has a plain spoken approach to things that could serve him well if he mounts a campaign.”
Not to mention most people don’t have the stones to get into a spittin contest with The Donald after his Ghetto beatdown of Rosie O’Donnell. LOL!!
Donald Trump is sucker fishing.
He may be a useful idiot.
The entire reason for his faux presidential campaign.
