As much as I abhor the thought of Obama, the reluctance of thinking conservative leaders to join this cause is because no one seems able to prove Obama was not natural born ... just as no one can definitely prove he IS natural born.
Many influential conservative thinkers consider it a trap.
If they were to join the cause claiming Obama is not natural born..... he just might come out with some definitive proof that he WAS born in Hawaii on the date he claims.
And that would make them look silly.
Clinton pulled these type of mis-direction stunts all the time....
What we are always losing sight of is that it's that it's Obammy's responsibility to prove he's a natural-born citizen -- no one else's.
Of course, this will all come to a head if he hasn't proven he's qualified by the time it's time to take the oath of office, for that will be the first instance of him breaking the law.
If he can't prove he's a natural-born citizen by that time, I doubt very much if he will show up for inauguration ceremonies and chance being handcuffed and arrested for impersonating the president-elect of our country.
