WASHINGTON The Republican Party should have done more to shut down the birther movement that Donald Trump led, one GOP senator said Sunday. I wish that we, as a party, would have stood up, for example, when the birtherism thing was going along, Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) told NBCs Meet the Press. A lot of people did stand up but not enough. Long before he was a presidential candidate, Trump led an effort to discredit President Obama by doubting he was a US citizen. Obama was born in Hawaii.

Ok, Hawaii.
And you know this because..?
It is on his birth certificate.
Ok, where and when did you see this birth certificate because it has certainly never been seen publicly?
Oh, you were referring to the green thing he waved around a few years ago?
There are two minor and one major problems with that piece of paper.
First is that his father's race is listed as "African". I challenge you to find one other birth certificate from that time that shows "African" as a race.
The second has to do with his name. Barack Hussein Obama II. This is not a normal way to name a child after his father. Usually it would say "Barack Hussein Obama Jr." The roman numeral II indicates he is being named for someone but not the father.
There are exceptions to this rule but it is quite unusual.
The last is his name. In Hawaii at that time you were required by law to give your child a English first name. You could give them any middle name and last name you wished but their first name had to be English. Since when is Barack an English first name?
If he was born in Hawaii he was not give the first name of Barack. If he was given the first name of Barack he was not born in Hawaii.
It is either one or the other. So either way the green piece of paper is bogus.
Now, once again, when did you see Obama's birth certificate?
Oh, so you haven't.
I see.
Flake should go do something to himself which is anatomically impossible.
Given his plummeting poll numbers I wouldn't doubt that he will make a desperate political move. What's the over and under that he switches party affiliation?
We all know that everything about Obama is a lie.
He’s not a natural born citizen, and I seriously question his actual citizenship, I also question his loyalty, and want to know why he and the wookie surrendered their law licenses.
That 18% is the Democrat Reelection Committee of Arizona.
Well, that is good news.
Scroll down to the first article. It’s a humorous depiction of McCain as a brain tumor.
So why retract it? Got scared?
‘What’s the over and under that he switches party affiliation?’
Doubtful even Flake is that clueless. Democrats will vote for a swamp RINO to screw Republicans. They will not vote for a party-jumping hack if a real Democrat is available...and of course one will be.
The other issue with the fabricated BC is the home address. Stanley Ann never lived with the baby at that address. It’s the one used for the birth announcements too, but again, it was not SA’s adress/home at the time of the birth.
Brain dead LDS people probably, the thinking LDS people know he lives up to his name.
Well, maybe because you have been in the woods too long, but Denigrating the "party" that does not represent us is pretty reasonable.
As for the people on this site always yelling at others to vote Republican - You get RINO poop that may have smelled sweet when you voted for it, But unfortunately its expiration date was Election night, right after the votes were counted
In what way did they do anything but shutdown the birther movement?
It apparent that Barack Obama also claimed to have been born in Kenya, notwithstanding the laughable claim that this was merely a fact-checking error.
“...The last is his name.
In Hawaii at that time you were required by law to give your child a English first name.
You could give them any middle name and last name you wished but their first name had to be English.
Since when is Barack an English first name?
If he was born in Hawaii he was not give the first name of Barack.
If he was given the first name of Barack he was not born in Hawaii....”
Now —that— one I haven’t heard; good point !
In 2004 Arnold Schwarzenegger and Obama each give a speech at the conventions of their respective parties, my brother and I remember commentators lamenting that the two people that gave the best speeches at the conventions were ineligible to be President due to being born overseas and a citizen of another country. Funny how that tape disappeared.
Could be. He was 18 when he made those videos which makes him about 24 now. Not hard to intimidate a kid like that.
Ask yourself this; he went to a lot of trouble to go into extensive detail in his first video. The next three were all done as responses to technical criticisms of each previous video and he went into great detail in each of those to demonstrate how he was right and they were wrong.
If he decided his original work was flawed why wouldn’t he make a video showing step by step how he had been in error? Instead he just puts up a comment saying he retracts?
His original work stands on its own IMO. What do you think of it?
Flakey Wakey wonders why Repubs didn’t speak up earlier about the birth cert? Here’s a better question: why didn’t brocko produce a credible birth cert from day 1?
There are many documents brocko should have produced; but it was felt that doing so would have put the twinkie in a bad light. Not one of those questions have been credibly answered.
How dare anyone find fault with the Repubs on this point?
The AZ SOS did an investigation. He asked the HI state registrar to verify Obama’s birth facts. The state registrar refused to certify any verification of Obama’s birth facts; the letter of verification only LOOKED like it had been certified because HDOH Director Loretta Fuddy unlawfully used HER OWN seal in order to hide the registrar’s refusal to certify - which is legal verification that his birth facts CANNOT be verified because there is no legally-valid BC for Obama making those claims.
IOW, HI has legally confirmed that there is no valid HI BC for Obama.
Senator Flake needs to be informed of that fact.
