Because it would show that his father really was Frank Marshall Davis.

So? That's his problem, and it would not make him ineligible. Many would vote for him *because* his father was Frank Marshall Davis.

Good point. You're probably correct. But still, if this knowledge should come out, I think the damage done to Obama's image would offset any potential benefit.

After all, the legacy media have carefully nutured the myth -- so well articulated in the ghost-written "Dreams of my Father" -- that Big 0 is grandson to a Kenyan goat herder.

This myth is an integral part of his "romantic" appeal to the misty-minded and foggy-eyed pseudo-intellects who comprise the chattering classes both in the USA and in Europe. And without their enthusiastic support, Big 0 will probably make his journey to the dustbin of history even faster than otherwise will inevitably happen!
