I remember well how little polls meant last decade. How did they suddenly become more important to our daily life?

Completely agree with the guy.
It was really stupid to even highlight this "issue" while there were other things we need to deal with. Silly statement by Cantor. Reaching as hard as he can. Sad really.

I don't think they should have released it. The idiots who kept saying that he wasn't a US citizen will still be saying it when all is said and done. It was never about his birth place to begin with.

Why did they believe it? Because they were told to believe. They were gullible. It shows gullible people will believe anything if the lie is repeated often enough. People believed this lie, and many other lies out out there, - the private armies, the concentration camps, Obama is a muslim, terrorist, communist, etc, etc, etc Just look at yourself. You bought the lies, and repeated them here for two years.

Well lets see: He had a birthdate making him older then 35, so thats fine. His mother was an American, a NATURALY born American, therefore any of her offspring at any age she gives birth are "natural-born citizens." The whole "mother must be in the US 5 years past age 14" only applies to mothers who were naturalized via immigration and not born here, and that is even questionable.

This Hawaii thing was a complete sideshow that has ZERO to do with real constitutional law.

I completely agree with your assessment. Obama did promise "change"

...er...

"change that matters"

...er...

"compassion"

If there's one thing worse than repeating stories, it's repeating slogans.

I agree that he's reaching and he would rather people continue to speculate and demand the long form birth certificate than to move on. However, I personally, don't think they should have released it because it's a waste of time It was never about the birth certificate anyway and the idiots will find something else to whine about. I think there are enough REAL issues to concern yourself with but the whole birther movement is a bunch of idiots.
