Why don’t you just say he says he is instead of he purports to be a natural born citizen...
All any of us are asking to is his original proof of citizenship not a computer generated easily duplicated and manipulated truncated version created at the start of the election cycle....
This is not a search for the truth, it is an original verification of his eligibility.
We already know that he has admitted being a British subject as well as Kenyan citizen by virtue of his birth, both of which DO NOT REQUIRE HIM TO BE BORN IN KENYA, only that he is the son of his father.
You asked — “Why don’t you just say he says he is instead of he purports to be a natural born citizen...”
Simply because *he* is saying it and not *me*... Therefore he “purports” to be... means that it’s coming from him and not from me (i.e., in “asserting” that this is the case).
