We need to focus on 2010 and slowing down the damage he's trying to do, and then sit back and ride out the next three years.
Exactly! The truth won't be coming out for years and years and years about his actual birthplace.

So basically whatever was produced would be moot since everyone would view it as forged, is what you're saying. So the only obvious route would be for him to resign.

I swear, these people are acting more and more like Saturday morning cartoon villains every day.

Yes, a verifiable version (as in effect in 1961) would satisfy everybody, I would think.

No it wouldn't. Birthers claim that a 'natural born citizen' must have 2 US citizen parents... and produce legal texts that apparently back them up.

BTW for the thinking folks here Kenya was Apartheid up untill 1990s ( still is but not as harshly ) Do the homework on those laws you will see that theres way more than one mistake on that paper ... again Orlys handiwork shows as well as her lack of knowledge about history ..
::chuckles:: yanno its fun to watch the "birthers" jump up and down and act foolish.. or dumb

The principal "apartheid laws" were as follows:
The Prohibition of Mixed Marriages Act of 1949 prohibited marriage between persons of different races and the Immorality Act of 1950 made sexual relations with a person of a different race a criminal offence.

No this is ridiculous, it isn't on Obama to prove anything. This whole birther ridiculousness has turned everyone's logic around. Find any kind of proof that Obama WASN'T born in the US, like a forged document or some record of him being born somewhere else, THEN he will be obligated to show all of his original documentation. Until you can find any kind of reason why we should believe he isn't a US citizen, then we are to assume he is. Seeing as how we've been told by state officials in Hawaii, his place of birth, as well as seeing birth certificates online, PLUS if you use common ****ing sense you can figure out Obama is definitely a US citizen.

Its ridiculous to say that Obama should in any way be on the defensive. You have just as much evidence that Obama was born in kazakhstan than you do he was born in Kenya. Thats right, we might have Borat for a president!

Uh-oh....I think we've reached a turning point in birther history.
