Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney has told Donald Trump it's time to stop questioning Barack Obama's citizenship.

The former Massachusetts governor said he now believes that President Obama was born in the U.S.

The comments come after several of Romney's fellow GOPers, including Trump and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, publically questioned Obama's citizenship, despite the fact his Hawaii birth has been confirmed by Aloha State officials.

Property tycoon Trump has stated he believes Obama was born in Kenya and claims to have sent a team of investigators to Hawaii to get to the bottom of the scandal.

But Romney told CNBC's Kudlow Report: 'The citizenship test has been passed.

'There are real reasons to get this guy out of office … but his citizenship isn't the reason why.'

What a GUY!

And he'll get along with all of the Democrats - even if in four years there are only 5 left in the Senate and 11 in the House, they will still have Ol’ Mitt's ear.

What a GUY!

There should be one mandatory question in any Obama bc discussion:

Why do you think Obama doesn't show his long form birth certificate?

If Mitt had brains he would denounce Trump, then call on Soetoro to release all his records in order to stop Trump.

RomneyCare, with all of its problems, will prevent Mitt from ever winning any political race again. Mitt is wasting his time and money.

Gee Mitt, could ya get a little more wishy-washy? You know how voters are craving that, and I'm afraid that all these strong, principled stands of yours are really hurting you in the polls.

I’d expect that from a would-be candidate who can’t answer questions about special/supernatural underwear....

Mr. Trump wants 0bama to release his long form BC.
Mr. Trump believes the doc contains embarrassing information.

All other alternatives are damaging to the USA.
