Third, Please forgive me for pinging you to this thread if you have no interest in anything to do with the issue concerning Obama's constitutional qualifications or as known by all, the “birther” issue.

I don't. My daughter has deployed overseas to the Middle East once already and is about to again, and my son is in Afghanistan. They joined the military long before Obama took office. They did so out of a desire to serve their country and to fight the enemy over there rather than on our own shores. They could care less who is in the White House.

While I strongly dislike George W. Bush and Dick Cheney and what they've done as far as expanding the federal government's power, I have no doubt that they would have said something before turning the country over to Obama if they believed that he was not qualified.

Furthermore, if Obama wasn't qualified, Hillary Clinton would have found out about it and paraded it around on TV and in the media. Anybody familiar with the Clintons know the lengths they will go to in order to discredit their enemies.

Even if the birthers won, Joe Biden would become President and we'd be in the same mess we are right now, headed down the road to socialism that was started under Bush.

Birthers believe that Bush and Cheney are part of the conspiracy, Hillary remained silent because Obama has secrets that could destroy her (what these secrets are haven't really been explained) and there exists a magical birther "do-over" button that in the event of birther victory, the entire Obama/Biden ticket would be disqualified, everything Obama signed into law would be nullified and either George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, John McCain or if they're being really optimistic, Sarah Palin would somehow assume the presidency.

All the while they call themselves "Constitutionalists."
