"Pointless" is in the eye of the beholder. I have long ago realized that it is important for the public to know that the legal system doesn't deal in truth, it deals in power.
And it is often incompetent.
Barack Obama was eligible to be President ...
So we have been told by people who don't really know.
...arguing over their eligibility is pointless given all the real issues that exist that people actually care about
People who do not care about the issue do not have to argue about it.
Clearly some people *DO* care about the issue.
People who claim UObama was born in Kenya or somewhere outside of the USA also don’t know for sure they are correct.
You’re right, people do care about where Obama was born, the percentage of voters who care about the issue are miniscule, compared to those who view people who claim Obama was born outside USA are nuts is overwhelming.
It’s issues like this that make the entire MAGA and America First movement look like a bunch of whack jobs.
