supporter of Obama

There's a little ditty that goes something like this:

that government of the people, by the people, for the people
.....
Obama produced his short form birth certificate when he ran for office, just like other candidates were required to do. Yet people like you demanded something extra, something beyond what the constitution requires. Because he is non-white, the right wing believes he couldn't possibly be a real American. That's the bottom line.

Most people just wanted the issue settled, once and for all, one way or the other.

You could burn that certificate into their foreheads and they still won't get it.

Goes a long ways toward explaining and exposing their limited intellect.

Obama never had a birther issue...birthers did.

Duh.
What he said.

'obama = secret muslin' and other signs from tea party tax day protests - asylum.com

Answers.com - Is Barack Obama a muslin
absolutely not. Nor is he denim, cashmere, or any other type of fabric. He is a human being, not a finely woven type of cotton.

Other qualities that prove that the president of the united states is not muslin:

When only 38 percent of the American people at present

would not consider that fringe

What Obama did in the beginning was abide by the
law, as in, acting like a lawyer. What he should have
done is act like a President. He ran on transparency
and uniting the country. In hindsight, I'm sure he
is regretful he just didn't do it a long time ago.

Now, that he has, we can all move on and address
the issues at hand, that is hurting this country:

Continual Wars of Choice and our Militarism
Excessive Spending
JOB CREATION IN THIS COUNTRY

Excuse me, but it's required by the U.S. Constitution! You think our Constitution is silly? That a President shouldn't need to prove his country of birth?

What's silly is Obama not presenting this certificate a long long time ago...it's his fault this thing has blown up to such a large proportion.
It does firmly establish one thing though: his grandmother is a liar. She said she witnessed his birth...in Kenya...

Bud

Obama's birth cert was provided a long long time ago. And his grandmother isn't a liar, it just goes to show that people dont' know how to properly look into things and blindly accept idiotic extrapolations based upon out of context statements.

LOL............I'm not a stupid "birther" just as I'm not a "truther" or any other stupid label mindless brainwashed Americans want to categorize critically thinking, independent thinking Americans as. At this point who cares what his birth certificate says. Do you people really believe it would be that hard for a document like a birth certificate to be faked? LOL.....I mean some of you sound like you still believe in Santa Claus and the easter bunny!!!!!! My god when did Americans become so stupid and naive. They assassinated two presidents for exposing and threatening their power grip on the nation.........and you people think it would be hard for them to forge a birth certificate? LOL. Haha..........the naivety and ignorance of the voting American public never ceases to amaze me.

And exactly where did you get this number? Actually the majority of Americans believe that he was born in the United States.

By the way, would you call the Nazis fringe, they were the majority at one time?
