The emperor has no clothes. All it takes is for one person of some influence and substance to raise the question publicly. Trump has done the Republic a great service.

If someone was claiming I was not born here the first thing I would do is show my birth certificate ....logical. Seems to me by ignoring the issue Obama has proven he does not have a legal certificate. Maybe we should ask his benefactor Soros where we can find one.

Good read. And well worth it for the money quote right here:

“It cannot be answered by a group of women who host a TV program with all the gravitas of a bunch of runaway balloons”

That line is a keeper! Especially next time they go after Palin or Bachmann...

Trump has guts. Unlike, say Beck and O’Reilly.

He should convince an elector to ask the Court to make it public. Since individuals do not get to vote for President they have no standing. But the electors whom individuals do get to vote for in the Electoral College DO vote for the President so they would have standing.

Whoopi Goldberg's view of Mr. Trump's question is begging far more attention regardless of the poll results. Goldberg asked Donald Trump during his appearance on The View, "What President has ever been asked to show us his birth certificate before." This question raises two further questions that must be asked if common sense has any chance of redemption.

******

When Whoopi Goldberg jumped all over Trump, she went ballistics and she screamed a question at Trump that went something like this: What white presidents were asked to show their birth certificates?

But what Whoopi should have asked instead was a question like this about past presidential candidates: What presidential candidates---black or white---were asked to show their birth certificates?

As far as I can recall, I can't think of any presidential candidates who had a lot of controversy concerning his background and so the public put some pressure on him/her to voluntarily show his/her birth to the public in modern times.

Colin Powell: However, I do know one very famous black person who a lot people wanted to run for president, and who, if he did run, would probably have been asked to voluntarily show his birth certificate to prove to the public that he was who he said he was: I am talking about the famous and well-respected, former Secretary of State, Colin Powell.

Why do I bring up Colin Powell's name?

The main reason is this for those who may not know: Powell's parents, as I understand it, were born in the Caribbean island of Jamaica, and later immigrated to New York City, where supposedly Colin Powell was born.

1. So I think that if Powell ever ran for president, I think it would be proper to ask him to voluntarily show us his birth certificate so that we could be sure (1) that his parents were not still citizens of Jamaica when Colin was born in New York City, and (2) that we can verify that Colin was indeed born in New York City when he says he was.

2. Myself, I don't see the well-respected Colin Powell putting up a fight---like Obama has put up a fight--when he is asked to voluntarily show us his New York City birth certificate if he ever ran for president.

3. Personally, I think that Colin Powell's chance has to be president has now passed, even if he still seems like a very good person who would have attracted a lot of favorable attention if he had decided to run when he was asked to do so many years ago.

4. Again, Whoopi Goldberg jumped all over Trump on her tv show because she erroneously thought that Obama is the only person in American political history who was being asked to show his long form birth certificate because he was black.

5. My point is this: If Colin Powell had decided to run for president when he had the chance to run several years ago, I for one would have asked him to show us his long form birth certificate so that we could make sure that his parents were born in Jamaica and they were American citizens when Colin was born in New York City.

6. Again, asking Colin Powell to show us his birth certificate if he ever decided to run for president would have nothing to do with the fact that he was a black person. It would have to do with double-checking his parents Jamaican background and American citizenship status when Colin was born in New York.

How long did it take men posters here to notice that there was a baby in the picture? All I can say is amazing.

Thank God for Mother Russia, or whatever country Trump's wife is from.

She can tell her fellow country women that if they look like her, they don't need no stinking short or long form birth certificate to enter the United States and to apply for citizenship.

We will simply and gladly take their word for it that they are who they say they are and tell them this: Welcome to America.

Obama would rather have his eligibility questioned because he call those raising the issue kooks. The one issue he will do his best avoid is his socialist bona fides.

1. Liberals do not care where he was born as long as he is a “citizen of the world”. That is what they all consider themselves to be.
2. Liberals think the Constitution is just some old musty irrelevant paperwork from over 200 years ago written by White Male Racists who owned Slaves.
3. Liberals are Communist.
