I will post a photocopy

the doctor who delivered me, and the name of the hospital. You know, all
that kinda stuff that's on an original certificate of live
birth.

I'll even post copies of my foot prints, my
silver baby spoon with date and time of
birth on it, a photo of my bronze baby shoes,
and as a special memento: a copy of the silhouette painting they had done of my facial profile when I was a baby.
I guess my family went all out
when I was born

My Presidential platform: anti militarism, smaller government, and total transparency.
All of that is fantastic. If you decide to run you would do something no other presidential candidate in history has done before, just like Obama did. No other President in American history has publicly disclosed their birth certificate while in office. Your family apparently did go all out when you were born, and that's great. For the legal purposes of presidential eligibility, almost all of it is superfluous.

Although it is true, no other president has been involved
in such a hounding for a release of a original birth certificate, there have been many others who were questioned about citizenship. Legally, I'm a US citizen over the age of 35 so I can run for president. But why, anyone would want that job - is beyond me. Maybe, that's why we have such slim pickings.

But history changes. So too, is what is expected of
those in public office, in regards to disclosure. Look
at Geraldine Ferraro - and release of her husband's
financial records in 1984.

Just like I never thought I'd see two presidential candidates being questioned by the likes of Rick Warren.

And, after all, it was Obama himself, who ran on transparency.

Ferraro's husband was committing fraud. I don't remember the exact details of it, but she did stay on the ticket.

Who else has been questioned about citizenship? Name one, preferaby one for whom the questioning went on for 3+ years.

Doctor records from 40 years ago? You do realize that this little thing called a law does not require that correct?

You also realize that your so called "legitimate standard" is also not what is required under the law. Everything that is required by the State Dept to prove a legal birth certificate is on Obama's form. Sorry, but the legal standard isn't what claudhopper says it is, the legal standard is what the U.S State Dept requires.

So you are admitting you do not believe in the law or legal documents then??

Initially, it was simply the stereotype that her husband was
Italian and must be in the mob, that spurred the
inquiries. It turned out it was improper financing with
a real estate transaction. That went on pretty much
the whole time her and Mondale campaigned.

Obama is not being questioned repeatedly about it.
In fact he makes jokes about it during campaign
speeches. I don't think anyone will make it the
main campaign issue when they run against him. Even trump has trumped himself out, saying quit asking me about Obama's birth certificate.

If I was running for President, and folks were questioning

ASAP. Simply because it would make it a non issue.
It's really that simple.


YouTube - Gibbs Is A Jackass Show Us Your Long Form Birth Certificate Barry Soetoro Barack Obama
Hawaii does NOT provide the long form. They do not PERIOD. The COLB is not just a document that shows another document exists. Its a LEGAL AND STATE CERTIFIED BIRTH CERTIFICATE THAT MEETS ALL U.S STATE DEPT REQUIREMENTS> Its a LEGAL BIRTH CERTIFICATE UNDER THE LAW. Why do you have such a difficult time understand the LAW and LEGAL DOCUMENTS??

Donald Trump: I've Said My Piece On Obama's Birth Certificate (VIDEO) | TPMDC
Oh, give me a break! The guy was convicted. We discussed this last night. I never got the impression it had anything to do with Italian stereotyping. I couldn't even tell you the guy's name. Where does this nonsense come from? It did not pretty much go on through the entire campaign. No one suggested she be removed from the ticket, or anything of the kind.

Obama isn't being questioned repeatedly about it? No, but jerks like Trump keep bringning it up,bringing it up, on and on and on. I have a beachfront home in Colorado to sell you if you think this isn't a big issue. Just look at the threads on CD. Get real! I was born on a Wednesday, but not this Wednesday. Do not expect any sane person to believe this is not a big issue with some people.

Hawaii senator questions Obama's true birth father

Quote:
He continued, "My belief is that there is a birth certificate, he was born here, but that there is information that for reasons known only to him he doesn't want released. If it were just the birth certificate, that would be one thing, but it's his school records, it's employment records. … Why would anybody, let alone the president of the United States, spend millions of dollars in legal fees to keep that hidden?"
So says a Hawaii GOP senator.

ALL his records are locked up tight. Unprecedented.
