A week ago, Donald Trump said he would release his own tax returns when Obama released his birth certificate.
Well, now Obama has released his birth certificate.
So, Mr. Trump, when can we see your tax returns?

What nonsense. Because Obama released something he should have released almost three years ago, Trump must release something when he hasn't declared as a candidate for anything.
Trump and anyone else is allowed to comment on political matters without releasing what actual, declared candidates should release.
Since you wrote this article on current political matters, why not release your tax returns, Henry Blodget and all who agree with his silly little outburst?
What’s with this green paper? Does anyone else who has a bc from Hawaii have this?
Trunp is the ONLY one that had the BALLS to bring it up. While the rest of the candidates were too Chicken $hit to force the issue.
That is in Trumps nature. He if nothing else loves himself. It would have been awful to have him as President. I am glad that the air is out of the ballon now and he will go back to his tv show. This proves that Trump won’t run and if he does he will never be nominated for the Republican Presidential Candidate.
He doesn’t have to release tax returns until he announces.
I am liking Trump more and more every day. Inam sick of politicians who talk talk talk and do nothing.
Why when the Nordyke person was born after Obozo, would the DOH number at the top be lower than Obozo’s?
If that’s all there is to it, why will he release it for Donald Trump, but let Lt. Col. Terry Lakin go to prison over it?
RE: So the birth certificate says he’s the son of a foreign student living in the US. Does that no prove Obama is not a “natural born citizen” regardless of being born in the US?
You hit the nail right on the head by asking that question my friend. THE ISSUE HAS ALWAYS BEEN THIS — HOW DO YOU DEFINE NATURAL BORN CITIZEN BY LAW?
Mant FReepers insist that we go by what they believe the Framers of the constitution understood the term, ‘Natural Born’ to be, which they describes thusly:
1) BORN IN AMERICAN SOIL.
2) BORN OF TWO PARENTS WHO ARE *BOTH* AMERICAN CITIZENS AT THE TIME OF BIRTH.
IF the above definition is correct ( and that is in dispute ), then the Birth Certificate’s release only shows that Obama passed on requirement ( #1 above ).
His father’s citizenship at the time of his birth is now the question.
Well, yes & no.
A birth certificate proves eligibility to be president. A tax return has nothing to do with eligibility. However, I know what you're saying.
Trump was NOT in politics then unlike the REST of the candidates.
If those were pre-numbered forms, there could be any number of reasons why they weren't be used in order. Someone will probably investigate it very soon.
This is the biggest Constitutional crisis of our time. Defending the Constitution against someone who knowingly and willingly has violated the Constitution doesn’t get anymore adult.
It is over. It will not be discussed further than Sunday. I know that we want it to be but it is over.
Agree by the White House doing this... It’s just validation that Obama was not born in the USA. Think about it. Why would he RERELEASE another modified Version of the COLB and not a birth certificate.
OH and like you pointed out... They were not using the word AFRICAN back then.
Looks bogus to me, but you new the media was going to take it hook, line and sinker.
What is with the lighter white area that covers part of the word Caucasian in section #14? The word caucasion is shown differently on this page than on the “doctument” at http://www.thesmokinggun.com/buster/barack-obama/birth-obama-certer-movement-098513 The “K” on line 6 is different from the “K” on line 16. The “H” on line 6 is differect then the rest of the “H”s in the rest of the certificate. There are also odd marks in sections, 11, 12a, 16, 17a and 17b.
Something stinks!
There isn’t anything in the Constitution about Presidents and their financial status. There IS however, something about the birth status of candidates for President. Trump’s tax returns have nothing to do with his qualifications for being President.
If The Donald does not make a big stink about this, it means he's a stalking-horse for Hussein, meant to inoculate him from further birth certificate inquiries.
