If he turned out to be a fraud would YOU be embarrassed?

Is this suddenly produced long-form birth certificate real? I don't know. I'll wait for experts to examine it, as should have been done BEFORE it was released, in order to REALLY put an end to this argument.

For two years he has sat back and watched as this country became divided over something that could have been dealt with swiftly.
The issue WAS put to bed a long time ago. Three years ago he released his OFFICIAL STATE CERTIFIED BIRTH CERTIFICATE, which is valid under this little thing we call THE LAW. This was over three years ago, but some people are lunatics, racists, bat sh** conspiracy theorists, ignorant, don't understand or comprehend actual legal documents and the law.

To be a natural born citizen (the qualifier for eligibility to hold office as president or VP) ... and according to the men who sponsored the 14th amendment ... a natural born citizen is a person who was born within the jurisdiction of the United States, to parents (plural) owing no allegiance to a foreign sovereignty. Clearly, under that definition, Obama's father being a British subject violates that criteria, regardless of where junior was actually born.
Epic fail. He was born in the U.S that makes him a natural born U.S citizen.

Thank you Donald Trump for forcing Obama to be clear with America.
Tump had nothing to do with this, he should not take credit, he is an a**hat.

Well, our President will be counting for a long time.
Now, he will simply have to run on his record and the
state of the nation.
That's what conservatives are counting on

He's lying. This birth certificate is a fake. I don't believe anything he says.

The idiots in the Republican party will destroy each other before they even get the chance to face Obama in the general election.
I like the way you think

Go back to whatever hole you crawled out of. The birther issue as much as it is a nonissue never had f'k all to do with Obama being black. In fact for white guys like me I could care less what Obongos skin color is. In fact I wish he would have been white because it's really sad how hoodwinked blacks were by this guy. It's a shame such a loser, do nothing puppet on a string community organizer from Illinois was this country's first black President. Or should I not be surprised that our first black president was a complete failure? LMAO!

Yet another reason why I don't spend time on the P.O.S., er, I mean P.O.C. threads here.


We got wars, a down economy, $4million dollar a gallon gas, an environment/natural element to this planet going down the drain some people don't seem to care about, a split country, reality tv, crime, poverty, reality tv, and the dumbest, fattest kids in the world.... and you people are most concerned with where a president was born?


We're all dead.
