Right on, I saw that one too. And I don’t call myself a birther, but I LOVE what Trump is doing!
Look, you either abide by the Constitution, (and ALL its provisions), or you don’t. If you don’t, then you’re off my list no matter what your other positions are and you’ll never get my vote.
Regardless of where the Kenyan usurper was born, daddy being a subject of the Crown makes sonny boy NOT a natural born citizen. Him possibly being born in a foreign land is just icing on the NBC cake.
The fact that so many candidates, (and Freepers), do not take these constitutional requirements seriously causes me to question their devotion to the Constitution.
Bingo! Why couldn’t she have just said “there are lingering questions in the public arena about Obama’s eligibility”.
I suspect Trump is a trojan horse for the other side. Just like Scott brown said the right things, he is NOT who he said he was so I will have to use caution with Trump. I will see the rest of the candidates first before forking over my hard earned cash to any PAC.
Agree that it is frustrating.. Don’t they realize that if Obama is not qualified for President and stays in office, we live in a banana republic!! Who cares what tax, abortion policy, gays, enviroment, financial policy regulation is when the perosn you negotiating with his illegitimate.. It is so basic to understand but these morons in DC just don’t get it...
She did say it needed to be turned over and verified, he bum rushed her.

Again...the Constitution has requirements.
THAT is paramount.
Again. What are the constitutional requirements of proof?
No worries! You are only allowed to VOTE FOR someone once, but you can NOT VOTE FOR them as many times as you like!!
Absolutely, then pivot (I know) to all the other documents Obie has refused to release.
Bachman isn’t near ready for the Presidency.
Waste of time and effort if she runs.
Don't you remember Clinton and the Lewinski? The man took campaign contributions from the ChiComs and a myriad of other real crimes but did the Pubbies go after him for that?
Noooooo - they went after the BJ, the 800-pound gorilla that never needed to be mentioned again.
Flame away but the birthers are behaving in an ignorant, masturbatory and ultimately self-destructive manner.
This birth certificate issue seems to be working as well as possible for the Dems.
Reasonable politicians at this point are unlikely to be talking about it.
And now that Trump is talking about it, now Palin will be asked about it, all Republicans will now get to choose between being seen as crazy by some Republicans, or a RINO by other Republicans. Not really a good spot to be in.
Sorry, but I wholeheartedly disagree.
Michele completely accepted that the document Stephanopolous showed her was a genuine birth certificate. She didn't even question the fact that Obama's father wasn't an American citizen.
Her comments were a complete, and total capitulation on her part, and the fact that she represents center-right America gives the appearance that we've all capitulated.
This is someone who has sworn to uphold and defend the US Constitution, yet she's stunningly unaware of the fact that having one non-American parent makes Obama ineligible to hold office.
This was a huge win in the battle of public perception, for Obama.
Not the first time Bachmann has made an illiterate remark.
Stephanopoulos: Well this has been introduced.
She has said stupider things before. This may not be so bad.
When a lawyer uses the word introduce, they usually mean in a court proceeding. Obviously Obama doesn't think the COLB (whether genuine or not) would be accepted by a judge, or the judge might raise the "natural born" question. Maybe Michele Bachmann thinks the same; and is trying to goad him into introducing it.
ML/NJ
I refuse to watch Stepinawfulpis.
Michelle Bachman had begun to eclipse Sarah in some people's eyes. That is now categorically OVER. This is a good thing, not bad. Michelle is not POTUS material. Never was. Sarah IS.
