Obama is not going to release those records, he has something to hide in those papers and that has been obvious for the last 4 years.
Think Obama should release contingent upon Romney's release of his actual and amended tax returns going back the same period of time. Given Romney chose to say " when I am President... numerous times at the third debate, it's the least he can do.
Dear kshe, I connected the dots for you. To follow the dots read from the start of this post to the end. If you are reading this congratulations. The dots end here. after its all spelled out for you can you now connect the dots?
So if you are going to accuse someone of deflection and know what you are talking about then after you connect the dots you would know "you are wr...wr....wr....wrong"! Think before you show your ignorance.
There arent any dots, merely a Rorsch blot of unattached posts that you perceive as dots.....still has nothing to do with the subject of this thread.
You Obama fans are all up in arms, but why? It seems like you also have some fear regarding his transcript.
I say, release it. And while youre at it, lets make ALL presidents that enter the WH have to release their college transcripts, etc. I have no problem with the transparency for either party. Make Romney do it as well when he enters office.
the entire "college transcripts" fuss is based on the myth that obama may have applied to occidental college as an indonesian citizen with a fulbright scholarship. the catalyst for this myth is nothing less than an april fool's day joke from 2009:

no fear (and honestly i wish he would) but i don't see any upside for him to do so. we've had his official certified COLB available since june of 2009 and his long form available for over a year yet the birthers still claim he hasn't released his birth certificate. why do you believe it will be different with his college transcripts?

Exactly. Trump's claim is that the $5M will be paid when the records are released 'to his satisfaction'. Now, if he is still unwilling to accept the COLB, why on earth would anyone trust him to pay the money?
There are many people still alive today who supported those "colored restrooms" in your state. The Democratic primary results definitely show that. The only states where Obama was in danger of not getting his party's nomination were Oklahoma and West Virginia, and nobody will deny that WV is racist because it's a pit of racism and other despicable attitudes.
There may be people alive who support that, but not many, and they aren't very public about it. Secondly, it wasn't because of race. You continue to just show your ignorance of the south in general. Oklahoma is in the Bible Belt. It's more about religion than skin color. If the candidate supports gay marriage or abortion, they're not going to get many votes in Oklahoma. It doesn't matter if they are black or not.

Ohh so it must be true! You know why he said that? Because the OKC THUNDER staff wouldn't kick fans out of their purchased seat to give him one, because he wanted to go to the game, though he didn't have a ticket. The game was sold out. Since he's famous, he thought he should be able to get in regardless. That isn't racism, it's just an excuse.

Evidence suggests women and minorities in Oklahoma do face discrimination in employment, home ownership and education, according to a 2012 study by the Henderson Center for Social Justice at the University of California’s Berkeley Law.[/LEFT]
[LEFT]According to the study, the African-American unemployment rate in Oklahoma was more than double that of white Oklahomans in 2010, and white women, and minority men and women all earn “substantially less” per year than white men. The poverty rates for blacks and Hispanics also is more than double the rate for whites, and minority children are more likely to attend low-performing schools, the study shows.
“There is ample evidence that disparity is still prevalent in the state of Oklahoma,” the study concludes. “While there are some promising trends in the public sector, it is clear that discrimination and disparity have not yet been fully remedied in housing, education, employment and other sectors.”[/LEFT]
I don't like Obama, but for policy reasons. I do not buy into birtherism, Communism, or transcriptism or any of those other insane and obviously racist attempts to discredit him. I simply decide against him on his big-government policies and paternalistic idealism in the Drug War and other vice-based laws...and that is why nobody has ever accused me of being a racist on any board or comment section of an article when I state proudly: "I'm voting for Gary Johnson because I don't agree with Obama's policies".
[/LEFT]
As for the rest of your nonsense, come to Oklahoma then talk about how much racism there is here. I guarantee unless you try to start something, you're not going to see a bit of it just by walking around and talking to people.
But again, just because people don't vote for Obama (even in OK or WV) doesn't mean it's because they're racist. It's because they don't agree with his policies. That's where I fall. Again, I could care less about the color of his skin.
