President Obama chided a reporter Friday for asking him about the Donald Trump campaign's latest opinion on whether he was born in the United States, and said the 2016 election needs to get more serious.
"I… have no reaction and I'm shocked that a question like that has come up at a time when we have so many other things to do," Obama said in a brief appearance before reporters that mostly focused on his push to pass the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
"Well, I'm not that shocked actually; it's fairly typical," Obama admitted. "We got other things to attend to."
"I was pretty confident about where I was born," Obama added. "I think most people were as well. My hope would be the presidential election reflects more serious issues than that."

Sounds to me like Obama just threw Hillary under the bus. I guess Hillary just needs to stiffen up, get control of herself and get more serious about issues.
O go away! Who cares where you were born at this point? Just go away.
Someone tell Obama he’s not in this one
Hmmm sounds like these guys are just getting a little too close to the truth for this scumbag.
...O go away! Who cares where you were born at this point? Just go away....
We only want to see boxes being packed at the White House living quarters. The lease is about up.
The Kenyanesian Usurpation was brought to you by BOTH parties.
The Constitution says natural born citizen.
That means one who is naturally an American because they couldn’t be anything else, born here of citizen parents.
Everyone in DC wanted that changed without the hassle of amending the Constitution.
The Senate passed a resolution declaring McCain a natural born citizen because he had TWO citizen parents, even though he was born in Panama.
Then Obama runs and wins based on just being born here, even though he told us on his website he was born a British subject.
So the standard went from born here of citizen parents to just TWO citizen parents to just being born here in one election cycle without amending the Constitution.
This was done intentionally because Rubio (no citizen parents), Cruz (foreign birth, one citizen parent), Jindal (no citizen parents), and Haley (no citizen parents) were all ineligible and the future of the GOP.
The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because they all cooperated in the violation of the Constitution.
Trump’s effort to turn the tables on the left and their effort to turn this into a racism issue has obviously worked. Obama just told them to move onto the next made up “scandal”.
For once he sounded reasonable in this 3 sentence sound bite.
"These allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American people." - Bill Clinton, January 26, 1998
“I was pretty confident about where I was born,”
Did you catch that? It is a non answer about his birth place.
I need to record this day on my calendar. For the first time, I agree with something Barry says.
Yea Oblamo, lets just sweep this all under the rug now that the truth is all over the internet and is damaging the Witch!! (and your last hope for a legacy)
It was thought ILLary was pretty stiff already. Only an autopsy would know for certain.
Keep a stiff upper lip there, ‘illary! I see what you did there.
Obama must be so pissed that his “successor” is running such a weak campaign. Now maybe he realizes that it wasn’t that much of a feat to beat her back in 2008. He must have forgotten that she’s one of the worst candidates ever; unless the fix is in for her.
lol...the press is making a big deal out of it...
“Hmmm sounds like these guys are just getting a little too close to the truth for this scumbag.”
This is the correct take ;)
Let us pray that this issue causes the muslim wing of the demoncrat party[Ogabe] to go to war with the marxist wing [Hillary]
