Trump was also involved in some way with Obama's birth certificate hunt, so he obviously changed his mind on Obama. I suspect Trump knew little about Obama when he first ran and simply went along with what others were telling him. As for his positions, several other GOP candidates hold the same views, so if Trump should be cancelled out by these views, then Bush, Kasich, and others should be disregarded, as well. In the end, Cruz is still the best choice, by a pretty wide margin, IMO.

If that's the case, he's an utter fool. One didn't have to listen to what others were telling them to know about Obama; all one needed to do was listen to Obama himself and have even a cursory knowledge of his past. Don't try to tell me Trump wasn't that sophisticated. He knew damned well what Obama and his minions were all about.

And the bank bailout, the auto bailout, and the stimulus? He changed his mind on those too? What has he not changed his mind on?

Obama’s birth certificate his d**k to do with Obama’s economic policies. I sure wouldn’t want a President who “knew little” about good economic policy as recently as 7 years ago.
