No point in pulling the trigger until he’s nominated, if he’s nominated. Obama could be collateral damage, but he was ostensibly born in the US. That tells you the tack they’ll try to take.
NOT ostensibly. Two state Secretaries of State filed official requests for verification of Obama’s birth facts. By law the HI state registrar had to legally verify any submitted birth facts that matched what was claimed on a legally-valid BC (BC’s that are considered prima facie evidence so the claims on them are legally presumed to be true absent evidence to the contrary).
What the SOS’s received back had the stamped signature of state registrar Alvin Onaka but the embossed seal of DOH director Loretta Fuddy, which is only to be used to certify HER signature. IOW, what HI sent out is not lawfully certified; Hawaii did NOT provide legal verification as required by statute, and the only lawful explanation is that nothing that was submitted could be legally verified.
So what was thought by almost everybody to be verification of Obama’s birth facts was actually, instead, LEGAL VERIFICATION that the birth facts could NOT be verified.
And if Trump and Cruz play it right, that fact could be used to legally expose the whole 2008 coup in a court of law.
Apparently he was born in Canada.
