Im rather surprised MCCAIN citizenship status was not a go since he was born outside of the US in an occupied territory the US held.. but then again we know how that goes with the AMERICAN PUBLIC and yes the obama birth factor was based on his race, and so called religion and where he grew up
Let me get this straight. People you don't know and have never met question some things about Obama and you KNOW why they did it.

What makes you so smart that you KNOW why what others think and why they do things?

Do you happen to know what the lottery number is that is going to be pulled next week. I'd like to play it?

and why do you think this? All it takes is showing the official birth certificate with a raised seal or stamp depending and that would be the end of it. I don't think anyone would ever doubt the legitamacy of someone of Mexican decent running for Pres unless there was a reason. I never really doubted Obama's, but I think the way he handled himself created most of the problems and concerns.

It was and guess by whom? Not the right wingers, but that is different.

Actually birthers are unAmercican, unpatriotic and divisive. No president can please all of the people and if you don't like it, don't vote for him. You have that right but resorting to nonsense, childish insults, lies and spins does not help the country. Pitting one side against another and attacking anyone who thinks differently than you do and talking about them as if they are the scum of the Earth doesn't help this country either.

Everything is not simply black or white, right or wrong. There are many shades of gray and talking a holier than thou stand and acting as if "progressives" are doers of all evil is childish. So what if other presidents have had their citizenship questioned? That still doesn't justify the birther nonsense today, especially when the POTUS made his birth certificate public a long time ago. Birthers are nothing but whiney cry baby, sore losers...he won fair and square and is eligible for the job. Don't like it, take your anger out on the campaign trail and at the polls.

Oh well, this fact proves them wrong once again. How devestating it must be to realize how wrong you have always been about the person you elected to be your leader.



CBS and MSNBC Both Falsely Claim Obama First President to Have Citizenship Questioned | NewsBusters.org
Fox news had this story weeks ago but the lame media doesn't want to hear it and if Fox news is telling it they act like it isn't true...they rather play the race card!

So, when we have another republican President in 2012 you will not join in any bashing on him/her?

LOL.

They were actually compared to blacks.

Somehow, our Irish immigrants decided to stop whining and start working.
