Whether the story is true or false, Obama needs to provide his original birth certificate to prove that he’s eligible to serve as President. The courts must REQUIRE that he do so.
Note that Obama is spending an enormous amount of legal fees in keeping his original birth certificate hidden.
I agree with you that he needs to show his birth certificate and that all the money he has spent in legal fees to block doing so spells out that he has something to hide.
However, when someone quotes this story that the government is trying to pass legislation to protect Obama, and it is a false story, it seems to weaken the case of the “Birthers” as to their own facts. I would just like to see the facts come out and not some wild stories.
