Telling of what, exactly?

I have many friends who regularly traveled to and from Pakistan from 1975-1985 while engaged in medical research. While there, they could stay from 1-2 years.

Naturally, they needed visas, and that has always been true.

I have repeatedly challenged the "Americans not allowed to travel to Pakistan, so Obama must not be an American" story, and every answer contains some stupid smear about my motives.

THE STORY ABOUT AMERICANS NOT BEING ALLOWED IN PAKISTAN IN 1981 IS A LIE UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE.

Please provide a reference, or a citation, or something other than assertions and veiled accusations against me.

Supposed Pakistani travel restrictions are not the problem for Obama as far as presidential eligibility. The notion that he even possessed an Indonesian passport in adulthood does have some very interesting implications, though.
