I don't deny there is racism in this country, but you cannot prove that this is the basis for the birther movement based on the fact that no (white) president's citizenship has ever been the subject of controversy (also false).

Again, your premise FAILS.
Ok, how many ways do I have to do this to get it through your (what I can't say here) head? READ THE TITLE HEADING AGAIN AND SEE IF YOU GET THE QUESTION! It doesn't say anything about controversy. READ IT!

No, I simply stated a fact. Take your own Myer's Briggs and find out what you are too!

I mean, it's only common "sense" that the motive would be to bring someone down. Duh!

No, it has not. To be precise, I want a NUMBER (and names to go along with that NUMBER) and no such NUMBER has been given in this thread.

So you brought this up because why? You have wasted a lot of energy on this.......

and honestly....I have not seen anything in the news about this.....so why are you wasting energy on this?

Again, the president does not care...that is obvious...
Ok, excuse me for independent thought of the news. And just because the President is above all of this, how do you know he doesn't care? Are you not able to display (no display would be asking too much, how about understand the concept?) of empathy? Do you even know what that means?

Jumping to your own (false) conclusions does not make it a fact, therefore, your thread FAILS.

PROVE that the intention is based in racism otherwise you lack all credibility. You made this thread, now prove your faulty assertions.

The racism charge is thrown around so much for every little thing that I hardly ever believe it.

One good thing about President Obama is he doesn't throw the racism charge around. (except for that cop in Massachusetts) And it would be easy for him to do.

The same crticisms leveled at President Obama were thrown at Bill Clinton. Natinal healthcare, too much government, too much spending wtc....

Any thinking person can see people criticize Obama based on his beliefs, not his race.

What about all the people that insisted on seeing Dan Quayles college transcripts when he was VP? What was that all about. Never heard any other President or VP being asked to show transcripts. Was that about race?

Obviously, at 17 pages, this thread does not FAIL. OK?

As I just stated in the previous post, I want a number and names and I'll be in a better position to PROVE my point.

Typing in all caps doesn't get your insane point across any better than undercase letters, especially when this entire thread fails anyhow. If you're not attempting to link the birther movement to racism, then why put (white) in parentheses? Mhmm.

No, I think it was because he did not know how to spell tomato. Gosh, somehow your post reminds me so much of Sarah Palin, but I digress.

IMO, Obama was not properly vetted by the media.

Still he told us who he was.

Many did not hear him and voted for him anyway.

The "birther' thing, I just do not know.

He is there now, all we can do is wait.
