You seem to forget that the Democrats/Hillary campaign dropped that birther non-sense almost as quickly as they brought it up. Obama's timing in releasing the long form now didn't have anything to do with (faulty?) polling. It has to do with making Trump look stupid and foolish and knocking him out as a serious candidate. Following Trump's recent claim that "his people" said the document doesn't exist---which was an outright lie on his part---who could ever take him seriously again?
1. Trump never intended to run for president, he's merely trolling everyone for publicity. He was never a serious candidate.

2. The birthers looked stupid before and now they should just let the issue drop before they look utterly crazy. (aka Glen Beck whom the moderates got sick of his crazy rants.)

3. The conspiracy will linger on with the ultra-nutjobs just like 9-11, the moon landings etc. Congratulations, you can go hang out with Charlie Sheen and Sean Penn and talk conspiracy over Tequila and heroin.

As an independent, this issue makes the far-right look really bad. For crying out loud why not stick to actual policy decisions instead of this great UFO chase. Time to move on.

How come Obama didn't do this at the beginning?

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.
Well I am 59 years, white, male, but then if I say I am your fairy godmother you will simply accept that for truth huh?

What happened to transparency? The proof is 2 years too late, if it isn't another lie. I have been wanting to ask this question a long time.

On the Hawian certificate of live birth the word African is use to state Obama's father's race.

No where have I ever seen African used that way, because people from Africa come in all colors. That certificate IMO is a fake mock up.

Now if Obama wants to prove he is a fake dickwad he is doing a bang up job for that.

In any case Jan 20th 2013 he is going to say good bye folks. I can't wait. The end of an ERROR.

The certificate always existed in the Hawaii office of vital statistics.

I am surprised that Trump's "people" couldn't find it.

What kind of mental gymnastics does one have to do to come to this conclusion when Obama basically proved Trump was wrong from the beginning?

I expect Obama was waiting for Corsi's book to come out and this issue to reach a fever pitch before blowing them all away with the release of the long form.

Trump may have "succeeded" in making Obama release it earlier than planned, but..

...bottom line, Obama made all the birthers look stupid, including Trump.

Dress it up however you like. Obama won this one.

I say, Trump should release the "findings" of his detective agency he hired to go to Hawaii to investigate Obama's birth certificate.

You know, the "we won't believe what they found!" findings.

No, producing the long form now knocks down the creditability of Trump and takes away his ability to be taken seriously as a candidate. After all, Trump recently claimed his people in Hawaii said it didn't exist and he was "shocked at what they were finding." Now he can be shocked at how easily he was taken in by the birthers.
