I thought the president would take a pass when I asked him about Donald Trumps rise to the top of the Republican field in my exclusive interview today.
Far from it.
He grabbed at the chance with a big smile saying he thinks the whole issue will be a problem for Republicans.
I think that over the last two and a half years there's been an effort to go at me in a way that is politically expedient in the short-term for Republicans. But [it] creates, I think a problem for them when they want to actually run in a general election where most people feel pretty confident the President was born where he says he was, in Hawaii. He-- he doesn't have horns we're not really worrying about conspiracy theories or-- or birth certificates, President Obama told me.
And in all my talks with Obama I think it was the first time he was one the same page as Karl Rove who thinks the birther controversy is hurting the GOP.
The truth of the matter is that I think that the vast majority of Americans across the country Democratic or Republican really want this election to be about growing the economy, getting control of the deficit, preparing the future for our kids. And my suspicion is that anybody who is not addressing those questions
Is going to be in trouble. I think they may get a quick pop in the news. They may get a lot of attention. But ultimately, the American people understand this is a serious, sober time, he told me....

He can freakin’ say anything that he wants, but he is still not a Natural Born Citizen and why didn’t Georgie boy ask him about the fraudulent SSN that he is using.
I’m not good at photo shop, but that pic would mean more if the suit in the mirror was headless
What plan? The question remains out there. 51% of Reps have questions about Obama’s birth place as do 27% of Dems. Obama has a legitimacy problem. Just asking the question is not a plan.
MOST Birthers are not as concerned as to WHERE he was born, but more about WAS HE A NATURAL BORN U.S. CITIZEN?
Ok, just for the hell of it...show me the Birth Certificate.
Lakins wife is Asian.
Then show the LFBC kenyan... just show the damn thing and we will all STFU. Go ahead kenyan... I triple dog dare you!

And if people are confident, then why is Trump getting so much support from the PEOPLE on this issue?
Or at least it seems like he is. I wonder if there’s any way to know.
Did they talk about his “muslim faith” again.

He is lying... and trying to hide it... and he is careful in what he says because he knows that one day we will know what he knows.

Obama Exclusive: I Was Born in Hawaii and I Dont ‘Have Horns’
He doesn’t have a birth certificate either.
Another thing, How does he know he was born in Hawaii, if he doesn’t have the papers to prove it?
I don’t have any recollection of being born in Wheeling Illinois, but I have certified papers to prove it.
Or Stanley Dunham with an "acquaintance" of FMD doing a stand-in as the "baby momma"... oops. But, Dunham always wanted a son...
