No reason to rush and make knee jerk reactions lets have a couple document experts examine the original first just to confirm and verify. By failing to release it when it initially became an issue, anything now produced merits much more intense scrutiny. Obama’s people have had over 3 years to FORGE 336 characters/certificate marks. Even for a D student you can do a bang up job if you have available a free 3 days per letter to work on forging a document.
Since when is “African” a race? Why are they so averse to using the proper term “negro” on their lame forgery?
Man on the run.
Mine says COLB at the top (issued in North Carolina in 1964). What does yours say?
The COLB released today says it may be an ABSTRACT of the true record?
Examine it and let's move on.
Sorry, but any hesitations I had are gone. At this point, keeping the issue alive is akin to the truther movement, the evidence just doesn’t support it anymore.
This birth certificate is an obvious forgery. The paper itself, security paper, did not exist at that time. If you look at the Nordyke twins birth certificates, they are from film and the background is black and the writing white.
Security paper did not exist in 1961. This birth certificate is on security paper. Case closed.
And besides the forgery aspects, Obama let a decorated war hero go to jail by not releasing this document? This is beyond reprehensible. It’s evil.
ditto, Tennessee ‘62
I was thinking the same thing, but recall the times...
A Kenyan/African might have objected to the term negro being used. In fact, Ann herself might have insisted on the term African, separating the fact the father was not an American negro. And the office producing the certificate might have gone along with it because it was considered a distinct difference at the time.
It had a different meaning at the time to be a negro vs. African.
“At this point, keeping the issue alive is akin to the truther movement, the evidence just doesn’t support it anymore.”
Of course you are correct but you must realize that you just became an Obama staffer invading a conservative forum in order to fight the “true believers” on this issue. THey won’t let go. They won’t. They are best ignored.
It is evil. Yet, it is a bridge too far.
baraq had 3 years to prepare this.
Kind of like when hillary had 900 FBI files that mysterously appeared in the residence part of the White House.
Don’t trust these people any further than they can be thrown.
Considering he was born in '61 the use of the word "African" vs. 'Negro' is even more suspicious.
The President is playing this beautifully. After a week of ranting a raving egged on by the GOP imposter Trump, he is now “refuting” the story that will easily satisfy those who have better to do than delve intensely into this issue.
Then he can paint (the still possibly correct) birther movement as the epitome of the “wacky-right” as they force their presidential candidates to still give them lip service. He will cruise atop his billion dollar war chest to an easy re-election.
You see, even if birthers are right, they lose. Thus, if the goal is to dethrone the One, then stop with this line of attack. The GOP leadership knows this clearly. Seeking to disqualify your opponent is easily misinterpreted as a sign of having no better ideas yourself. Focus on the issues where we can win and stop being played like a fiddle.
The argument of defending the constitution is a wondeful one. I am sure it will be very comfortiing that you made this defense during a second Obama administration.
Spend your valuable time contradicting his policies and actions. This line of attack is HELPING THEM!
As I said on another FR thread, declare ‘victory’ for our side (”Obama CAVED in yet again.”), then make even more noises demanding other documents to be released.
Our side can also copy the Lefties’ playbook, it is about ‘fair’, imo.
