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."

Thank you. And, of course, I knew it was RINO. My damn Iphone changes misspelled words to the right one and it changed RINO to RHINO. Just wanted to make that clear!

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

I held that thought (the Birth certificate is irrelevant) as well for a while. But then, something occurred to me recently, without a legal, valid BC, there is no real evidence to proceed with disqualification (in whatever forum it may proceed) due to lack of NBC status. What we have is a written narrative that BHO, Sr. is one of the parents. Along with the narrative is the COLB which they knew would eventually be identified for the fraud that it is. (And of course the microfiche "announcements.")

That is why I now believe that it is vital that an original (validated) full BC is unearthed (if of course one actually exists somewhere). I have to believe that all of this was well thought out long ago. The eligibility movement has been basically boxed in since it started. Producing the narrative and the COLB, etc. addresses the bulk of ignorant people that don't venture past the MSM for their "information." And it also puts into play the whole host of "he was born in America, he was an American citizen by birth, etc." distractions. I suspect that they accurately figured out that the Constitutional NBC requirement would be too esoteric and "complicated" for the bulk of the population, AND, that they could count on the MSM to either keep it totally out of the discussion, or distort it with "native born American" references. (So far they have been correct on all of the above, sadly.)

That is why I now feel that any efforts that will lead to the discovery or production of the valid, legal long-form BC is necessary. For without one, I don't see how the case for eligibility (i.e., NBC qualification) can ever proceed very far.

Barack Hussein Obama has put all his eggs into the basket marked : COLB from Hawaii.

Many millions of voters believed him.

Here’s my dilemma:

Barack has a younger 1/2 sister, Maya.

Maya was born in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Maya admits that.

Barack admits that, as he was in Jakarta with his mother when Maya was born.

MAYA ALSO HAS A COLB FROM HAWAII....

This is proof to me that the COLB from Hawaii isn’t any such proof of being a natural born citizen for Barry’s level of proof.

Obviously, Hawaii will & does issue such a document without any documentation regarding the ACTUAL place where a person is born. Any close family member can request the COLB for the child.

Therefore, I don’t believe that NObama was born in the USA, nor do I believe that he is a natural born citizen & eligible to be the President of the USA.

Trump is getting my attention as a GOP candidate.

Thank you for attempting to alleviate my concerns. I’m going to withhold judgment until things play out more clearly.

You're welcome, Nan. I did my best, but you're right. We're just going to have to see how all this plays out. Just like any other primary.

Rove's behavior in Delaware was absolutely indefensible, reprehensible, and counterproductive.

He had a Siamese twin brother, also a highly paid FAUX "contributor"(?) there, Charles Sauerkraut, crowing "PIO-PIO"!!!

Yeah I saw that. It is weird. Trump did not get his own show.
They just can’t talk about how they hammered Trump for his first released BC being from Jamaica and Mama a Scot.

Now they have egg on their face and they are quiet.

Good point. This seems very important, however, how do know for sure that she has a Hawaiian COLB???

It has been fascinating to watch Trump work. Who would not agree with that? Like everyone else my mind is awash with all the possible motivations for Trump taking this on. At first I thought Hillary was behind it. But many convincing arguments have swayed my views. Now I am thinking along these lines....

It is true that Trump has a friendly relationship with Hillary. It is not hard to see why that would be. If you stand back and look at both of them objectively, their personalities are very similar.

It is very clear, to me anyway, that Soros had kind of a “competition” going on between Hillary and Obama in 2008—but in the end Obama won and Soros told Hillary at that whisked off meeting she and Obama went to during the primaries that Obama was going to be the candidate.

That didn’t sit well. We all remember the nastiness that got passed back and forth.

Could it be, Donald felt sorry for Hillary? Perhaps he has mad a tit-for-tat deal with her. Donald gets Hillary a second chance and she promises to run a straightforward campaign, and may the best “man” win. Donald vs. Hillary. Winner takes all. If she wins, she gets socialism, if he wins, he gets capitalism.

Oh, well. Just another silly idea to add to the pot!

I strongly support what Trump is trying to do . . . sadly, however, State-run media will never, ever allow this issue to get the “legs” it so rightfully deserves. Only way this will get legs is if all of the “R” who announce their candidacy for President, also announce, coincidentally, that they will NOT be releasing their college transcripts, writings, or birth certificate for review by the press and the public. That is the only way this will ever get any kind of nationwide exposure.

I asked that question to a guy at a lunch counter by dawn's early light this morning, and his answer was that he thinks the Clinton people see Sarah Palin as their best match-up and don't want to discourage her from running.

Saving their kryptonite bullets, iow.

That was what he thought.

Best idea I've seen yet.

Deserves to be repeated.

I wasn't aware of Maya's COLB (what, it wasn't in the papers?!) ..... good one. Well argued.

Hillary isn't the kind of person who has friends. She barely has a daughter.

She has power instead ..... and bat wings .... and her familiar spirit, Bill Clinton, who subs for Mephistophilis. Or maybe Mephisto is just a staffer for them both.

LOL..ditto the combover. You’d think with someone with that much money could get a decent haircut and style.

Oprah has offered to sit him down for a makeover on her last show. Don't know if it'll happen.

Wonder if she can make him over to a "power gray"? lol
