They are still doing it today.
The best example is the way they went about first tagging anyone who knew what natural born citizen means as a “birther” and then going full Alinsky on them.
They used disinformation about being born in Kenya to distract from the fact that it did not matter where he was born, just that he was born a British subject and Kenyan national. That alone makes him not naturally an American.
The only way one is naturally American is if they cannot be anything else. More than ONE nationality is NOT.
They even enlisted conservatives, Limbaugh and Beck went out of their way to belittle Constitutionalists.
I remember asking my Commander “why the American people weren’t being told these things?”. He said think about them knowing, and what do you see how they might respond?... then I understood “their” reasoning for not telling us these things. You are right, it goes on... and no amount of intel, hard or soft facts taken from the web or other scources have a clue to what’s REALLY going on.
