2) Why is his country of origin listed as "Kenya, East Africa"? In 1961 Kenya was still a British colony and it's official name was the Colony and Protectorate of British Kenya.

These two things lead me to question the document that was released this morning.

The administration has been trying to figure out what this fuss is all about.

They tried looking into some birther IQ scores, but they couldn't find any.

“Over the last two and half years, I have watched with amusement. I have been puzzled with the degree with which this thing just kept going,” Obama told reporters Wednesday.


Obama is having a good laugh today at Trump and his pals.

I may have misheard him on the radio, where's a transcript of the photo op?

This is great for Donald Trump! Donald Trump forced the issue and made the most powerful man in the world, the President of the US, hold a press conference. Makes Donald look powerful and makes Obama look incredibly weak. Maybe Donald would be a great pres....he certainly seems to get things done.....he forced the hand of the POTUS.

you mean sorta like it was photographed out of a legal binder, just like you would expect a public record to be stored.

didn't take the birthers long to find fault.

Obama's birth certificate is absolutely irrelevant to the colossal manipulation Trump has perpetrated on the Obama administration.

Obama has been played!!!

BIGTIME!!!
The Trump card wins... BIGTIME!!!

White House releases Obama’s ‘long-form’ birth certificate - 44 - The Washington Post
I suppose you think Obama's hanging on to it for two years was an accident?



I said two years ago that he should hang onto it until it was to his advantage to release it.
