Real estate mogul and potential 2012 presidential contender Donald Trump defended his questioning of President Obama’s birth certificate Monday morning with a defiant, “this guy either has a birth certificate or he doesn’t.”
“I am really concerned,” Trump said in a phone interview on Fox & Friends. “You have no doctors that remember, you have no nurses -- this is the president of the United States -- that remember. … He could have been born outside of this country. Why can’t he produce a birth certificate?”
Trump, who has been flirting with a run for president, first made a remark about the so-called “birther” issue last week on The View. Obama provided news organizations with a scan of his birth certificate during his 2008 campaign, which some oulets also independently vetted.
“I brought it up just routinely, and now I’m starting to wonder myself whether he was born in this country,” Trump said Monday.

Trump knows why Barry can’t produce his original birth certificate. It doesn’t exist, at least, not in this country. Barry is a fraud. Fraud defines him.
“How many remember every birth they attended forty-some years ago?”
In 1961 Hawaii the birth of a black boy to a Kenyan father and a white American woman would have been on par with seeing an alien step out of a flying saucer. It would have been an absolutely remarkable and profound event - nay, even scandalous, for the time. That no one remembers such an event is also remarkable as such things did not happen every day in 1961 - even in Hawai’i.
Oh, I absolutely agree with this part.
... if that means Hillary in the White House
That is a bit drastic. The point is, everyone is gung-ho on The Donald because he is bringing the BC issue into the limelight. However, he is no republican and should never be touted as the republican candidate to the presidency. He is doing this for Hitlery, to get Obama out of the way, so she marches in and is accepted because like you say...
she is still 100 times better than the Usurper.
We’d have been much better off with Hillary than this country is today!
I was born a year earlier than Obama, and I clearly remember when Carter reinstated draft registration. You can even check online if you have a SS# and a birthdate. I am still listed. Of course, Obama also has that nagging social security number problem too (imagine that). But asking a president about his past is the new racism.

This guy is an affirmative action candidate in everything he has done in life. His grades were inflated, and he was pushed upward by AA believing lefties. He presents himself very well, so he got by on his looks and personality.
The left is absolutely wedded to the "fact" that he is brilliant. The fact that he cannot give a speech (even to grade schoolers) without a teleprompter should tell them something; but, it won't. He is a sham.
Not really, but boy am I grateful to him for FINALLY speaking out publicly about this and NOT kowtowing to pressure to shut up about it!!
WOO HOO!
Ack. Gall = fall... lol
You can't tell me, and he is president of the United States. No one can tell me. WTF?
This guy just lobbed 200 missiles into a foreign country, on my behalf, and I don't know who he is? WTF?
Yikes! I didn't know about all that. Thanks!
I so admire him for having the guts to bring this out. Our spineless, scared Republican politicians are pathetic. I wish he would talk about the school records too.
And Trump is just getting started. I heard him go after the complete cover-up and hiding of the Obama (non-existent) academic and job history.
when did he do that? I’m so thankful that someone that people listen to is doing this—FINALLY!
You are correct, things were a lot looser back then. My late mother was an adopted baby. My grandmother was dating the lawyer who got her divorce from her first husband. According to family members, she just showed up one day with a baby girl. The lawyer had procured the infant for my grandmother. This was my mom. When she was of an age to go to school, my grandmother went to the county clerk's office, told them she had been born at home, and the date and time of birth. They gave my grandmother a birth certificate. (BTW, my father was actually born at home.) Now, this was in the 1920's; but, I could see someone placing a birth notice in a newspaper without any "official" documentation during the 60's -- it would not have been difficult.
that’s what i want to know too
He said alot of people had been contacting him with support for this. I plan to do the same. We all should.
In 1961 there were very few blacks in Hawaii. A salt and pepper couple with a new baby would have stood out like a sore thumb. The whole world would have remembered it.
In Oct of 2008 when Barry went to HI to ostensibly visit the sick Grandma he had a meeting with the supervisor of elections about his eligibility. The Hawaii Democratic Party was refusing to issue a nomination certification due to the fact that Obama was unable to produce satisfactory eligibility docs. So he was at that time not on the ballot in HI. Finally Nazi Pelosi sent a DNC nomination cert signed by her to the HI supervisor of elections and through a legal loophole in HI election laws he made the decision to put Barry on the ballot.
Donald Trump is a smart well connected guy so I’m guessing he knows something. I’m sure he has researched this issue in depth before jumping into it publicly. He definitely has a plan becaue if you notice Donald keeps bumping it up a notch every couple of days. He started off saying that he felt sure Barry was born here but just wanted to see the BC. Today on Fox and Friends he is up to “ well I’m having doubts” My belief is that Trump is planning to beat this drum until BHO has nowhere to hide. Why he is doing this I’m not sure. I hope its because Trump is truly worried about the country and he thinks he could make a significant improvement if he was president. I have seen speculation that he is a stalking horse for Hillary and it could be true but I don’t see Donald Trump putting himself out there on a limb for somebody else to be President. I think if he’s doing it he wants the prize. Just my opinion.
TG, the Honolulu paper birth announcement was found, in micro fiche form. This was found (going by memory) about the time Barry Soetaro decided to run for Pres. Micro fiche would be very easy to alter/counterfit.
Amazing that the left swears by the birth announcement as gospel, but completely the “Newly Elected, Kenyan Born US Senator from Illinois” as false.
I have said, the same thing and add what about past girl friends? Especially the rich white girl, Barry wrote about in his book?
Getting McCain to produce a bc was a smokescreen by Claire McCaskill (Dem-MO) to get SR 511 passed with a clause saying others once thought to be not eligible were in fact eligible. That was a lie, but it got Obama on the ballot because Repubs and Dems violated the Constitution by voting for SR 511. Hillary, Coburn, Obama, Leahy, etc. were on the Senate Judiciary Committee. They all knew Obama was not eligible.
Hillary did not expose a fellow commie because she thought she had enough delegates to win the nomination. Repubs thought McCain could beat Hillary. Their greed gave us Obama when Howard Dean illegally forced Hillary’s delegates to switch to Obama at the convention. If Hillary had exposed Obama after the convention, she would have admitted violating the Constitution. Repubs and Dems are guilty, that is why they refuse to admit the truth and begin impeachment hearings. TRAITORS ALL !!!!
