The remarkable thing about this debate is how trivial a matter it seems to be for many, including News Networks, radio personalities and commentators, as if the entire issue no longer matters. Most, I assume, view it as another fringe "conspiracy theorists" subject not worthy of discussion. This may be due to the moonbat nature of conspiracy theorists, but in this case the messenger is irrelevant. The least that the skeptics of the importance of citizenship can do is verbalize exactly, or even approximately, why the subject is not worthy of discussion, or even comment.

Exactly. If i were the most loyal of Obama fans, I would still find the issue of citizenship with today's widespread world travel interesting, and the natural born citizenship requirement of our president fascinating. This may be the first time we have even had the smallest of reasons to wonder if our President might meet the requirement, and it's a precedent SURELY as interesting to news programs as Britney Spears.

The only flash of hope from the silenced media is that the other side is not promoting it even as a crazy tinfoil idea some whackjobs on the right have. DEAD SILENCE. That tells me that they are afraid to even mention the subject at all, lest they might be proven fools later on.

Astute observation!

Colonel Ross still wore an expression which showed the poor opinion which he had formed of my companion's ability, but I saw by the inspector's face that his attention had been keenly aroused.

"You consider that to be important?" he asked.

"Exceedingly so."

"Is there any point to which you would wish to draw my attention?"

"To the curious incident of the dog in the night-time."

"The dog did nothing in the night-time."

"That was the curious incident," remarked Sherlock Holmes.
