President Obama is in a fix over his country of birth.
The President started to dig the hole as Senate candidate and now he is president, the hole is getting deeper and uglier, mainly because of his evasive actions. Many Democrat supporters are either ignoring the problem or are vehemently attacking "birthers" who question the President's eligibility.
Republicans are not the only ones concerned about his eligibility. Libertarians, independents, constitutionalists and even democrats are wondering why Obama is fighting so hard to hide his origin.
Unfortunately, Obama dug the hole himself, and like a hole created when a water main leaks and then bursts, the hole is expanding day by day and as it does, the fallout is increasing.
The President and his legal teams have done everything in their power to prevent anyone from accessing his real birth certificate, if he has one, but there are other lines of investigation they cannot block.
During his campaign for the Senate, he and his team touted his Kenyan birth, possibly because it made him more appealing to the voters they needed. Unfortunately, admitting to his birth in Kenya makes him ineligible for the Presidency.
So the question now is, was he really born in Kenya and he told the truth in the Senate campaign, or was he really born in Hawaii, and the Kenya story was a lie, used to deceive Illinois voters.
Obama can't have it both ways. The answer to this question will be interesting!
Of course, he could say the campaign and the reporters all got it wrong, but it will be interesting to follow the trail on this investigation and discover the sources for the AP story that documents the apparent fact that Obama was Kenyan born.
If it wasn't the truth back then, why didn't he stop the campaign using that information and why didn't he make the AP issue a retraction?
Obama supporters who say it is nobody's business, need to take a step back, imagine the president is George Bush and ask themselves the same question they should ask now. "Is it OK for the President to hide his origin and what are his motives for doing it?"
I want there to be a simple, truthful answer to these questions, but I have a strange feeling the answer is not what any of his supporters wants to hear.
Living there age?s 6 through 10 is ?reared?
Reared? Is this a PC definition for *Reared?*
Reared..partially raised..whatever! Please remove your Conservative head from your back side.
Krauthammer has never mentioned Ovimit’s *rearing** or Indonesia before.
Get a grip please. Critical thinking is required.
It's neither. In each of the 9 eligibility cases to reach the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court denied certiorari, which means that the Supreme Court refused to hear the case and the decisions of the lower courts (which had all dismissed challenges to Obama's eligibility) stood. All 9 decisions were without a single recorded dissent.
BO was reared
Only Larry Sinclair knows!
Keyes called him on the subject of his birth in Kenya and Zero is alleged to have replied.."It does not matter I'm running for the Senate not the Presidency."
Why Keyes has not made more of this admission I cannot imagine.
LOL!
The statement regarding his admission of Kenyan birth during the debate with Alan Keyes is NOT true. I listened to the audio of the debate when I first read this. It isn’t there.
Thanks for the ping. Interesting thread. (Yes, Bill seems to be co-opting Glenn...although Glenn is a nice guy and does not speak ill of Bill. Good observation, katiekins1)
I am aware of all the foreign reports of his Kenyan birth.
However, this statement, “During his campaign for the Senate, he and his team touted his Kenyan birth...,” is, to my knowledge, not documented and not true.
I would like to see the report(s) that “During his campaign for the Senate, he and his team touted his Kenyan birth.”
If it is correct, I would like the link-sourced article for The Obama File.
Thanks . . .
Actually, we have. It's called "the common law", it never went away, and U.S. judges still cite the ancient precedents where not overwritten by U.S. statutes. U.S. law courses still lecture on Mort d'Ancestor and Novel Disseizin.
Have a nice day.
If what you say is true, it probably explains why Keyes has not made more of it.
