Hmmm, well considering Romney’s grandfather defected to Mexico, where his father was born, and it’s unclear whether George Romney ever became a naturalized citizen, Romney is the last person to throw stones.
IF that issue comes up Romney should simply invite 0bama to explain to the American people not only the reason he’s been using a Connecticut SSN when he was never a resident of that state, but to explain why he has spent well over a million dollars with the law firm of Perkins Coie to suppress and fight legal challenges to his Constitutional eligibility to hold the position of POTUS. Wind up that pitch with a question “Mr 0bama, were you lying then, or are you lying now?”
0% chance Romney says any of that.
Nope. Not buying the argument. The thing that Mitt needs to focus on, if he is going to play this card, is the inconvertible fact that the Birth Certificate Obama released was an utter fabrication.
That, alone, indicates a level of contempt for the laws and the citizens of The United States of America that utterly exceeds anyone’s reasonable expectations for a President.
I am confident of Sheriff Joe’s findings. He had to be sure nine ways from Sunday that it was false. Too much at stake otherwise. And haven’t you noticed how quickly it was forgotten? The MSM slipped it right off the radar.
Talking about it during a debate, and then allowing the discussion to expand to other missing documents... this is Obama’s most horrifying fear because there is no way in Hell he can let anyone see the real documents.
But he won’t have that option if forced into a promise to produce them. If Romney can force his hand there, it’s checkmate — and all over but the shouting.
The only question is whether Mitt has the gonads to go for the jugular like that. I think he might.
I just think he might...
Writing and distributing a book is a BIG DEAL. The author of an autobiography should be and IS involved in every minute detail of the book. There is no way that blurb got into the inside cover of Obozo's book without his approval.
He should just say “a lot of people have raised questions they would like answered, but fankly I want to talk about more important things, like where the next president will take the country”. That leaves the questions hanging, without opening Mitt up to charges of being a “birther”. Obama is going to lose on the issues anyway.
LOOK AT THIS,IT WILL BLOW YOUR SOCKS OFF!!!!!
Obama Admits Birthplace
Scroll all the way down and watch the video, It is Obama after he became a Senator. How come it never came out before now.
Obama admits not being born in Hawaii ...Speech apparently made just after his election to the US Senate.
Can one doubt HIS OWN ADMISSION? Where is Sixty Minutes?
Obama is actually on this video admitting he was not born in Hawaii but was born in Kenya and is not even a citizen.
Obviously he made these statements because he did not know at that time that a president must be a “natural born” citizen.. OOOPS!
Circulate this before they yank it from the internet.
Will some one tell me why this guy is not being impeached??
If you just watch the first 30 seconds your mouth will drop open.
Obama admits he is not a citizen
Hmmm.... Maybe the “birthers” are on to something....
THE AMAZING PART OF THIS TRAVESTY IS AMERICANS CONTINUE ALLOWING THEMSELVES TO BE RULED BY AN ILLEGAL ALIEN.

His first speech is apparently just after his election to the US Senate.
Both, Barack and Mitt are prone to saying things that they will regret, later. If, only, both of them could lose to an actual, decent conservative candidate, instead!
That's pointless.
The issue is his fraudulent birth certificate, not where he spent the first year of his life.
The issue is that his father, as listed on that fraudulent birth certificate, was an alien and not a Citizen, not where he spent the first year of his life.
The issue is he isn't a natural born citizen, not where he spent the first year of his life.
IMO Romney will be mocked incessantly by those who have actually learned about this issue if he follows the advice given here.
How about a softball question for the annointed one, “Is your real father Marshal Davis” While in NY I had the pleasure of viewing a daytime despicable show “ WHO’S YO DADDY” where the vile host maury Povich does DNA testing on men to find the daddy for women who have no idea who they slept with or how many. Put Povich as a debate journalist he certainly fits the bill and it’s a ratings grabber
This will not happen.
If Romney were to sincerely question Obama’s citizenship, Romney’s campaign would be over in an instant. Nobody, except a distinct minority of conservatives, cares enough about the issue, regardless of the validity of the concern about it.
Even if Obama is a foreign born, foreign raised, Soviet agent, secret Muslim and it all can be proven, the priority must be to move him along in November.
Sometimes you have to let things go, if there is no momentum to find out.
CC: Governor Romney, in Michigan you told a crowd of supporters, "No one has ever asked to see my birth certificate." Don't you believe that the birth certificate President Obama presented last year is valid?
MR: I think Mr. Obama is far more interested in promoting that discussion than I am, in his ongoing attempt to distract from the economy he has created. The recession ended in its natural economic cycle a few months after he took office, and my opponent would like nothing better than to get into a side discussion that has nothing to do with the relationship between his massive and regulatory spending binge and the longest economic slump since the Great Depression. Why don't we stick to the issues - what Obama's policies have done to our economy over the past four years, and what my administration will do differently to promote economic growth instead of government dependence?
The Republican National Convention has arrived—time for all good saboteurs and sleepers (some are on this thread already) to start the disruptions and distractions.
Romney should come on stage waving his birth certificate.
Nope wont happen....she wont give him that long to answer or speak without interrupting.
That debate will never happen, because Romney will never go beyond saying he was joking...and he will stress that he firmly believes Obama was born in the U.S. Why? Because to start delving into Birtherism would cost him...oh...I don’t know...5-10 million votes. The truth is only a very small percentage of voters want to hear a debate on whether Obama is real American or not. It’s a real loser issue for Romney.
And if there's another peep from the left, demand the release of one or both from o'fraud.
No CNN moderator would present this issue fairly, or allow pursuit once things didnt go Obamas way. But Jack Cashills underlying point matters: given the opportunity, Mitt Romney must be ready to knock this out of the ballpark with a hammer-blow that puts the onus where it belongs on Barack Obama. Here is my fantasy answer, which Romney would have to spew out in one breath before being cut off:
Cathy, this is a distraction, when we need to spend every minute improving the economy and Americas future. Supporters of Hillary Clinton first made Obamas birthplace a political issue in 2008, since a child born overseas with a non-citizen father cannot be President under our Constitution. But the man who created the born in Kenya story is with us tonight Barack Hussein Obama. Mr. Obama do you deny ever stating or writing that you were born in Kenya? Did you write it in your attempted memoir, Journeys in Black & White? Why did your literary agent promote that idea from 1991 through 2007? Mr. Obama, will you, right now, direct the State of Hawaii, Occidental, Columbia, and Harvard Universities to make your records public, and end this question, so we can get back to the countrys business (or the golf course as you frequently prefer)?
