I expect Obama was waiting for Corsi's book to come out and this issue to reach a fever pitch before blowing them all away with the release of the long form.

Trump may have "succeeded" in making Obama release it earlier than planned, but..

...bottom line, Obama made all the birthers look stupid, including Trump.

Dress it up however you like. Obama won this one.
I don't believe Trump had ANY influence in Obama releasing this. My guess is he felt it would put it to rest so that it wouldn't be a source of stupid questions during the 2012 campaign.

More than 6 in 10 Americans (64% to be exact) would definitely not vote for Donald Trump for president, a new Gallup Poll shows. After his ludicrous press conference today, that number could get to 75 percent

I am surprised that Trump's "people" couldn't find it.

No big surprise, they weren't looking for it.

I don't either, at best Trump might have prompted him to release it earlier.

I expect the Corsi/WND book was what Obama was waiting for...

I can't wait to see how WND reacts to this. I'm sure it will be comedy gold!

What happened to transparency? The proof is 2 years too late, if it isn't another lie. I have been wanting to ask this question a long time.

On the Hawian certificuate of live birth the word African is use to state Obama's father's race.

No where have I ever seen African used that way because people from Africa come in all colors. That certificate IMO is a fake mock up.
Not if Obama wants to prove he is a fake dickwad he is doing a bang up job for that.

In any case Jan 20th 2013 he is going to say good bye folks. I can't wait. The end of an ERROR.
You guys are so predictable.

How many birth certificates of people born in the United States with African parents have you seen?

And if the far right keep behaving like they have so far, they're handing Obama another term on a silver platter.

Yes I think CNN and Obama has been in cahoots to show what an arse Trump really is. Having said
that I am still disappointed that he gave in to those racist dirtbags.

To be honest, I'm surprised Obama didn't go on "The View" to show us his birth certificate.

Well for one, he just used it to deal a likely fatal blow to a potential challenger before the campaigns have even really begun.
