I don’t know why, but for some reason this meeting w/ Obama makes me feel uneasy. Does anyone know if he has met privately with leaders of other non-Muslim religious groups?
Genealogy, of course is a Mormon specialty, but so is inventing history.
I'll bet that their family history of BO affirms Hawaii as his place of birth if it goes public.
He just had a private meeting with Jewish leaders. This is a routine meeting. And, whenever a Mormon leader meets with a dignitary of sufficiently high rank, it has become customary to present a copy of his genealogy. They’ve done it for several previous presidents. And, since we can only based our research on public records, the Mormon church cannot “establish” Obama’s citizenship. Furthermore, his place of birth is irrelevant to what they are doing, and I’m confident they will take his word for who his parents are. They will just search public records for the ancestry of those parents.
As a suspicious Mormon, I wonder whether Reid thinks he can parlay President Monson’s deep concern for those in need into institutional support for socialized medicine. I doubt it. I don’t know what President Monson’s political affiliations are, or have been. I know he is a great advocate of private charitable service, but that doesn’t necessarily translate into support for government run health care.
I am glad to see that he has taken Dallin Oaks with him. He is a brilliant lawyer, and solid conservative, IMO.
He just met with the Pope.
