It's official: Donald Trump is a "birther." But he'd prefer you don't use that term.
Speaking to MSNBC Thursday, the business mogul and improbable presidential candidate reiterated much of what he has said in the last several days when it comes to doubting President Obama's birthplace, declaring, "I am embracing the issue, and I'm proud of the issue. I think somebody has to embrace it."

BOR and Rove; what a darling couple they make.
That'd hurt him with his constituency, too.
Female? A possibility I'd not considered. Wonder what other services Reggie Love provides?
At the beginning I never paid much attention to the issue very closely. I felt that if were true that Obama ignored the constitutional requirements of elegibility it would eventually come out. I was focusing on the other issues and the damage Obama was doing to this country.
Then I watched Obama shove his agenda down our throats and we know Obamacare has been declared unconstitutional. Then he goes to the UN with a complaint against Arizona. Now he goes to the UN to take our troops to war claiming the UN trumps the US Congress. After seeing this, I’ve started looking again more seriously at the missing birth certificate and wondering if its just another way to snub our constitution or if he has something to hide.
I'd wager that if you gave Trump and Taitz 30 minutes to write a legal brief on virtually any subject that Trump could bang out a reasonable simulation of a novice attorney's efforts. He's been around the legal block a few times. Taitz on the hand couldn't write a comprehensible legal brief if Chief Justice John Roberts dictated it to her.
Any comments from Michele Bachmann on doubting Zero’s eligibility?
{She should be in prison for knowingly covering for Obama.}

Don’t leave out those behind this fraud. This plot took more than the Fraudster to pull off. Check out the path to 2008 and follow the campaign contributions as well. Who paid for this and who thought it up?
Best answer in all the threats I have read so far!
Bravo for your post, and go Trump.
The issue is not dual citizenship. If you were born overseas to a citizen parent, in service to their country (USA), you are a citizen by birth. Not a “Natural Born Citizen”, but a citizen by birth as opposed to a citizen by statute, eg. a naturalized citizen. You can not be a “Natural Born Citizen” so you can not legally be president.
” Even John McCain had to prove his eligibility!!!”
John McCain proved his INeligibility by releasing his long form birth certificate showing he was born in Colon, Panama, a FOREIGN country. Like you, he is a citizen by birth, NOT a “Natural Born Citizen”.
Panama Canal Zone was NEVER U.S. territory. To be NBC you have to be born ON U.S. SOIL, It doesn't matter who your parents are or what they are doing. If you aren't born on U.S. Soil ..... STOP RIGHT THERE.... No need to go any further. No need to determine your parents status.
If you WERE born on U.S. Soil, THEN we can proceed to finding out the citizenship status of your parents at the time of your birth.

>****ADJUSTING TIN FOIL HAT****
>This wasn’t on FOX, this is posted by CNN. How many potentially embarrassing things to Obama do they regularly publish? Consider the source. Perot got 19% of the vote which made Bill Clinton president and the Dem’s have not forgotten that.
Well, IMO, if the GOP rams someone like Jeb Bush or Mitt Romney through then Obama *should* win. [1]
Remember NY-23? How the national republican party endorsed the Democratic candidate rather than the Tea Party guy who beat their “anointed” in the primary?
A Rmoney or Bush selection would, IMO, mean that the Party does *NOT* care to win and did not learn ANYTHING at all from the 2010 elections: it should be considered, in such a case, suicide.
[1] — Assuming that the “a third party CAN’T win” statement to be true; which I am thinking is less true than previously.
Not sure if you’ve seen today’s Daily Caller.
Bachmann demurs in ‘birther’ arms race [VIDEO]

But she’s not following real estate mogul Donald Trump deep into “birther” territory.
That’s “the least important issue in the United States right now,” Bachmann told The Daily Caller in an interview Wednesday.
Actually, I never thought the BC issue would go anywhere, since the courts and the MSM all seemed to sweep it under the rug. But Trump has really brought it to light, and the issue is now gaining traction.
But my interest in Trump has to do with his knowledge on China, world economics, how we’re fighting the wars, etc.,and the fact that he is far from being politically correct. THAT is why I initially became interested in him as a candidate!
This BC thing now is just icing on the cake!
Well, I don’t know about this, since zero said he was born in HI. < /sarc>
>He sufficiently explained how he changed his mind on abortion (he is now pro-life) [...]
Do you have a link to that explanation/story? It sounds interesting.
TRUMP!
YOU MAGNIFICENT BASTARD!
Now, will he say that Hussein is ineligible regardless of the BC, because Hussein’s purported father was not an American citizen?
Say that Mr.Trump and you have my vote.
Wonder if the Trumpster would let Chris Matthews talk all over him if he was on Hardball. Don’t think so and hope he appears.
Bet Chrissy is too afraid.
What do hair and weight have to do with character?
