Trump warns of 'greatest scam' ever
CNN ^ | 03/31/2011 | CNN Political Unit

Posted on 03/31/2011 11:22:43 AM PDT by Smokeyblue

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."

I’m sure they keep a close eye because of complexity or ‘what ever’ reason - but have a yearly audit ‘just because’ I doubt it. If there wasn’t a problem in previous returns - why the need for an official yearly audit. Now, I’d say all bets are off.

I wish some one could tell me why Obama is wearing a wedding ring in 1981 (while in Kenya), but didn’t even meet Michele until 1989, they married in 1992.

(see photo of Obama with Kenyan Grandmother, 9th picture down)

He’s also wearing the ring with the ‘famous’ photo of him with his grandparents sitting on a park bench in NYC. (Same time period/year as the Kenya photo)

I think keeping a close eye on him and knows the amount he’s set aside, knows how he thinks and doesn’t, positive you know exactly what’s on his mind - and yet you aren’t in his camp - is hilarious!

But that’s what someone does as the ‘watch their enemy’. Like the MSM does with Palin. It’s always the ‘left’ closely scrutinizing anyone that shows conservative traits. So it wouldn’t be rocket science to say you are not in Palin’s camp either.

I heard that, but it doesn’t really make sense to me. Is there even a “religion” box on a birth certificate? And, even if there was, changing religions is no big deal to Americans — however hot and bothered it makes the Mussies.

No, it’s something more than that. It has to be something Obama thinks would be an actual deal killer. Whatever it is, my guess is that Trump already knows what it is.

Lots of people have been bemoaning the fact that no Conservative leader, including Sarah, has been willing to take up this issue. I can understand that. Being the first man up the scaling ladder or the point man on an uphill bayonet charge is not really something most people would consider career-enhancing. Besides, from their point of view, there are so many other safer issues they can slam Obama with, why take a chance on the one issue that might actually be a trap?

Trump changes the equation. I don’t think he is really serious about running for the Republican nomination, but if he is, this single issue will either make or break that effort. With that in mind, I do not think he would be raising it if he did not have a good idea what the real answer is.

The man is just too smart. Smart, cunning, ruthless, a gambler, but like any good gambler he knows how to weigh the odds.

So, are you in Palin’s camp? And you are willing to put Trump on the same ticket? How pathetic.

LOL

I have been warning of that since the summer of 2008.

But then I am NOT the Donald.

I wish he had gotten a clue a LOT earlier.

But since I am here, the Birth certificate is irrelevant.

Obama was never a Natural Born citizen because he was born under two jurisdictions, instead of the one required for POTUS and NBC status.

Natural Born Citizen of the United States means you were born under the SOLE JURISDICTION of the United States.

Barack Obama does NOT meet this requirement.

“Trump has suggested that maybe Obama’s birth certificate says he’s a Muslim” ??????

A birth certificate assigns a religion to a newborn???

But what if it says his daddy was an American Negro Communist Activist?

So you aren’t in the Palin camp nor the Trump camp.

Maybe the GOP will pick another candidate that has it’s feet on both sides of the aisle - much better to be PC than what is right for the USA. Anything that pleases the left. Keep your eyes glued you might be able to make a difference! LOL!!

But thanks for sharing your thoughts on this conservative site.

Trump might just open up the “Pandora’s Box”, where suddenly everybody won’t be afraid anymore to say what they think about Obama.

The bc is just the beginning. If/when Obama caves on that and there is something fishy then there will be demands to see his college transcripts and other paper trails

The Donald is making it more permissible for a few state legislatures to demand a long for bc if you want to be on the ballot
The Obama bc can lead to lots of good things...God willing

exactly as many here have said, he knows the answers of the doubts he is raising....It’s just a matter of playing it out. The WH knows this too.

And Trump keeps returning to 'not a US born citizen?'. Could Trump have seen the documents that prove Obama was not born in Hawaii?

To tell the truth I don't have TV and even if I did I wouldn't watch either blowhards...

That being said, this is what is happening:

1. Trump is serious, whether he runs or not you'll have to wait to find out. I hope he does.

2. For those Freeper whiners here who think he is stalking for Billary...well they are full of it. Only doing damage control for their favorite eligibility cowards. Trump isn't taking on A SITTING PRESIDENT (USURPER) PERSONALLY because he wants another socialist in the game.

3. Trump is probably soft on some “conservative” issues. When it comes to “conservative” I am ATILLA the HUN. But no matter which issues he is soft on, he is still WAY stronger conservatively than 90% of the so called conservatives out there. I have worked for 20 Plus years in the puzzle palace on the Potomac and most conservatives are just a bunch of horse manure libs in sack cloth. (see Bush...both of them though the last was an idiot...if that don't convince you see Rove.)

4. Trump has HUMONGOUS HUEVOS. I really wish someone with Republican governance experience had some but they don't. Not a single person. They are all eligibility cowards.

5. We are already in a Dictatorship with a ruling Politburo...You have to squint a bit to see it. Next year it will be in your face...We don't need cowards we need leaders.

Much more to come, but we need to get behind the only one with a pair and push this as fast as we can. You can whine, wonder or vacillate...but your life and freedom are literally slipping though your hands as we speak.
