Oh and by the way he did not look at me or in my general direction for the rest of the 2 hours left.
He didn't say natural born citizen? Odd.

Michelle was not there when the president was born. Heck, how does anyone know at birth? Africa is often called the Motherland.

No he did not say natural born, just that they go through a backround check when they file to run for president.

And he may be from Kenya, but I thought he was born in London? Which by the by UK has 6 months to file a birth certificate, strange he was in Hawaii when the certificate was filed.

So he posts a certified copy from the fine state of Hawaii and the Republican Governor of Hawaii confirms it's kosher. Which, in the mind of rational people, ends it.

The State of Hawaii is the final arbiter. They're the certifying authority (ever stopped to ponder why it's called a "certificate"?), and when they put on a document that it's prima facie evidence in court, they back it. It's one of those States' Rights things. Feel free to take an anecdote about an FBI agent avoiding eye contact as evidence beyond the official documents issued by a state government, but don't expect to be taken seriously.

The spectacle turns more amusing by the minute.

He was born on Mars.

Makes about as much sense as the birfers.

In that case, his policies would make sense...

...on Mars.
