Despite government documents showing President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, at 7:24 p.m. on Aug. 4, 1961, some Americans _ known as "birthers" _ still contend he was born outside the country and is ineligible to be president. (snip)
..critics dismiss the birther movement as a radical fringe that could damage the Republican Party.

There we go. Fixed it
Naysayers be damned - any one of us would and could easily produce such a document were it required or demanded of us - Obama refuses to do so, putting extremely flammable fuel on the birth certificate issue. Keeping the college documents secret fans the flames of controversy even more. Do they show him to be a foreign student?
THESE QUESTIONS are wide open and REMAIN UNANSWERED.
Below and linked are portions of discussions re the initial lawsuits, Burg v. Obama, DNC, et al., & related issues.
Prior lawsuits are very instructive, including the history of Obama’s private defense counsel, why the DNC rushed to certify candidate Obama and its effect on the plaintiff’s standing issues, etc.
Also reported, many in the black community suggested using “race” to reframe the issue to deter further questions and openly disparaged black leaders who voiced any questions; Alan Keyes and US Supreme Ct. Justice Clarence Thomas.
The questions and legal arguments that first arose re Obama’s “eligibility” are still pending.

“The flap began in June when National Review’s Jim Geraghty raised the question and asked the Obama Campaign to release a copy of his birth certificate in order to prove that he actually was born in the United States. (Reports had previously surfaced claiming that Obama’s Kenyan grandmother, Sarah Hussein Obama, told reporters that Obama was not born in Hawaii, but in Kenya. She reportedly told reporters that when her son, Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. returned to Kenya he was accompanied by a pregnant white wife who was close to term.)...
Obama’s family did not take to Stanley Ann Dunham Obama well according to Sarah Obama because she was white. Shortly after she arrived in Kenya Stanley Ann decided to return to Hawaii because she did not like how Muslim men treated their wives in Kenya. However, because she was near term the airline would not let her fly until after the birth of her baby. Obama’s grandmother said the baby was born in Kenya and that shortly after Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. was born, Stanley Ann returned to Hawaii.
Purportedly, when she arrived back in Hawaii, Stanley Anne registered her son’s live birth as an event which had just happened—in Hawaii. This supposition is based on the appearance, shortly after Nov. 6, 2007, of a Hawaiian birth certificate that was issued, as a duplicate birth certificate, by the State of Hawaii to a US Senator who requested it.

Berg’s investigators revealed that Obama’s own half-sister Maya Soetoro—with whom he was raised—seemed not to know where her own brother was born. In the Nov., 2004 interview by the Rainbow Newsletter Maya Soetoro said Obama was born on Aug. 4, 1961 at Queens Medical Center in Honolulu, Hawaii. In February, 2008 Maya was interviewed by the Star Bulletin. This time she told reporters that Obama was born on August 4, 1961 at the Kaliolani Medical Center for Women and Children. On June 9, 2008 Wayne Madsen, a journalist with Online Journal published an article in which he said a research team went to Mombassa, Kenya and located a Certificate registering the live birth of Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. to his father, a Kenyan citizen and his mother,a US citizen.

Berg argued that he felt it was the role of the Federal Election Commission to ensure that presidential and congressional candidates are eligible to hold the positions for which they were seeking, and that those candidates run a fair and legitimate campaign.
In vetting the presidential candidate,” Berg argued, “the DNC and the FEC are required to ensure the eligibility requirements pursuant to our Constitution are met and the Presidential nominee, if elected, is qualified and eligible to serve pursuant to our United States Constitution. In order to be eligible to run for the Office of President of the United States, you must be a “natural born” citizen.”
- Many unanswered questions.
Why? racism, partisans, nut conspiracies? No, and not even close. Try the old fashioned motive - the objective truth.
Now Obama is the President of our Nation and the unresolved questions raised during his candidacy - are even more critical and important.
Press Sec. Gibbs continues his twostep and mocks any that dare raise these UNRESOLVED QUESTIONS. Mr. Gibbs, these questions were raised two years and are still unanswered(?)
WHY? Because Obama has REFUSED to discuss these questions and release any and all associated documents. He created this issue.
The question of eligibility for the office of President of “our Nation” - IS NOT A FRINGE issue whatsoever. The opposite is true. This is a fundamental question and must be resolved.
“P*ss on 0bama. Literally. And figuratively”
nope.I just want to see him led out of the WH in irons
“I’m not buyin’ it. He’s ineligible until he proves “
otherwise”
as long as we mere citizens and taxpayers need to provide OUR BCs for far less than serving as POTUS,this POS needs to show his
Who could doubt “government documents?” Once there is a “government document” all dispute is over. No government, so far as the AP has been able to find, has ever published a misleading or inaccurate “government document.” Once there is a “government document” all further inquiry must stop, you hear!
I could give you a list of a dozen that should be right there behind him, LOL!
“FREE THE LONG FORM!”
But only when the fellow travelers are in power
Ci-cago styke power makes sities work, if you don’t mind so much of the crime being committed by those who are ostensibly in charge of combatting it. The cost is somewhat high for ordinary folks and legitimte start up businesses and mid-caps don’t do so well, but for those that can afford the pay-offs and kickbacks it makes things easier and it makes so many officials wealthy while there on the public payroll. So when the one told the Africans that they could not expect businesses to move there if they had to pay 20% off the top to the officials he knew what he was talking about. They’ve got to get the price down a smidgen over there if they expect to be in the Ci-cago loop when he becomes affirmative action fascis mayor of the world.
