But, those whose opinions and actions actually count (Congress, the USSC, Vice President Cheney, The GOP governor and GOP AG of Hawaii, etc...) do not seem to agree with you.
You do not think the standards of proof that BHO has met are sufficient. Again, that is fine.
But again, those whose opinions and actions that could have affected the issue do not seem to agree.
Is the ‘Birther’ issue a legitimate plan of attack? I personally do not think so. Other disagree with me. That is also fine. Perhaps I will turn out to have been wrong.
Regardless, I must try to select and advocate what I see to be more productive avenues of attack. Which, in my opinion, is to do what you suggest at the end of your post. Focus on their choices and action, not alleged circumstances of parentage.
I don't know whether they agree or disagree with me or do you. It is a fallacy to believe in this political climate that their actions or lack of actions tell us what they believe in. Acquiescence is not the same agreement. Hawaii has been deceptive in their actions and candor, which has been well documented on FR.
