You mean Mark McKinnon of NoLabels, non-partison, best BO & McCain bud and twue Republican?

The chance of winning the Presidential campaign based on the birth certificate thing is about negative a billion percent.

[Strategerist]

The Anti-birthers (here on FR and everywhere else) keep telling us that the birth certificate issue is a non-starter

The reason it's a non-starter are manifold:

1) To defeat Obama this time, a LOT of people that voted for him last time will need to vote for the Republican candidate this time.

2) The overwhelming majority of these people are Democrats and Independents.

3) The ONLY people that the birth certificate issue has any traction with are people that didn't vote for Obama last time, hate him, and have no intention of voting for him next time.

4) Ergo, it would be stupid for a Republican campaigner to focus on an issue that ONLY appeals to people that are already going to vote Republican anyway.

#12 has a bit of truth. However, only Colorado, New Mexico, or Nevada would have to come to their senses to defeat Obama. Wisconsin, and Iowa seem to be trending toward the red at the moment also. All bets are off if a RINO like Romney is nominated.

To defeat Obama this time...

You assume Obama will run. All it takes is 1 state to mandate that all candidates running for office must simply show proof of eligibilty (long form).

That right there will defeat the Kenyan.

If a candidate actually did what you’re proposing, they’d lose to a bag of sand.

Zero has cost the Democrats "dearly" ...

He's already been told that he won't be "allowed" to run for the 2012 Democratic Nomination ...

How do the Democratic Kingmakers enforce that ?

Simple : ZERO MONEY FOR ZERO ... coming from Geroge Soros himself ...

The birth certificate issue IS a non-starter. The only person who has any authority to authorize the release of Obama's BC and to end this foolishness is Obama himself.

Obama knows this, Abercrombie does too and so do privacy rights advocates.

Abercrombie is playing some for fools. I ain't buying what he's selling.

[Sioux-san]

yup, that’s how it’s done. No money from King Soros.

Is Abercrombie just dumb to go out and make the BC an issue without the hard evidence, or is he part of the Soros team, too, to cast doubt and our PINO?

One reason Obama won’t even run in 2012...
Multiple states will have laws on the books by then that require a candidate for POTUS and VPOTUS to PROVE THEY ARE U.S. CITIZENS and Obama CAN’T DO IT!
