Understand why Trump issued the statement he did. But doesn’t this leave Sheriff Joe waving in the wind and having to fight by himself? He is a staunch Trump supporter but last I heard this reelection for Sheriff is a really tough one for him.
It does, at least for the time being, until the election. "New information" is a reasonable justification to change position. A significant fraction of the public believes that the digital image of the BC produced by Obama's handlers is a photoshop job, and that Obama has yet to produce authentic documents to substantiate the claim he was born in Hawaii.
I'm of a mind that Obama is ineligble regardless. When he was born, he would have become a British subject if his father had had custody. He was born a dual citizen, and I believe this is a disqualifier, as a matter of law. Focus on the BC is misdirection of sorts, and if you think about it, if Cruz was held to be a NBC, born in Canada, then the place of birth is totally irrelevant - until you read the case law.
