"Another question yet to be resolved is whether Mr. Obama is a natural born citizen of the United States, a prerequisite pursuant to the U.S. Constitution. There is evidence Mr. Obama was born in Kenya rather than, as he claims, Hawaii. There is also a registration document for a school in Indonesia where the would-be president studied for four years, on which he was identified not only as a Muslim but as an Indonesian. If correct, the latter could give rise to another potential problem with respect to his eligibility to be president.
Curiously, Mr. Obama has, to date, failed to provide an authentic birth certificate which could clear up the matter. "

Someone will try to claim that it is a done deal because on one of Obama's site he has a posting of a certificate.
But if that is so WHY hasn't Obama provided it to the courts.

No, there isn't a shred of proof of anything you say. There is an actual birth certificate that has been held by Newsweek and Factcheck. (Factcheck has photos)

I wonder if people on the right would be so willing to buy into these ludicrous conspiracies if Obama was white.

Why doesn't McCain prove to me that he's not from Mars?

It's stupid, that's why.

No, actually he isn't white. He is actually bi racial. But in America you are Black if you look black or have a black sounding name. Remember? Check. Check.

"Quoted" from a blog..but the facts are true (anyone can look them up)

"A prominent Democrat files suit in Federal court asking you to provide proof, to settle the matter once and for all.

What do you do?
A. Provide the court with the three documents in question and go back to shaking hands, making promises and smiling for the cameras.

B. Provide images of one of the documents to a friendly website to post, but not to the court.

C. Ignore the request, then make a motion to dismiss the case, in lieu of providing the proof.

D. In the meantime, quietly, post a notice at your website, FighttheSmears.com that you had dual citizenship with Kenya.

E. Hire the top gun attorney from the Council of American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) to fight the case.

F. File a Joint Motion for Protective Order to Stay Discovery Pending a Decision on the Motion to Dismiss (which was) filed on 09/24/08, thereby putting the matter off until–hopefully–after the election.

Time’s up. What do you do?

Most readers sensibly chose A.

But, if you’re Barack Obama, you chose answers B, C, D, E and F.

A curious response for a campaign interested in “fighting the smears”.

If there is nothing to hide, why is everyone involved going to such lengths to hide it?”

** My own words: Maybe someday we will know the answer.

This is typical republican drivel aimed at the uninformed conservative voters who will believe anything they read.

So you think someone does not have to show proof that he/she meets the requirements stated in the Constitution to become President?

If it's really just drivel. . . it would be very easy to shut up. . .just produce the damn birth certificate already. And NO scans on the internet or pictures posted on the internet of people holding it don't count. Give the flipping thing to the court authorities and get on with it already!

If Obama was not born in the US, someone would have proved it already. Plus Barack is smart enough to know that if he wasn't born in the US that is would eventually come out. So yes this beating a dead horse is drivel.

ETA: And if it is not drivel, then prove it already.

Throughout much of history sarcasm was considered a "lower form" of wit because it was considered so unabashedly disrespectful to the person or object being described.
I guess that is yours and others intent when you go out of you way to respond to a post with sarcasm that clearly you are uninterested in.

Interesting clip --- Why doesn't Obama release those records? Why is he fighting the case instead of just giving the requested documents and stopping the lawsuit?

Obama supporters will go on and on about how McCain was at the bottom of his Annapolis class...What WAS Obama's class ranking? Is that why he won't release the documents...just a thought.

Makes people like me, on the fence, wonder what he is hiding.

One more thought...if it's true that Obama's Grandmother said she was at his delivery in Kenya and you asked Obama who is is telling the truth (or who is the liar), he or his grandmother, I wonder what he would say...

thank you for the HONEST thoughts you posted. There is NOTHING wrong with seeking out the truth, and wondering why or why not?

Rather than trying to get to the bottom of something and dig for facts, people seem to just want to say "oh, he's so wonderful......that could NEVER be true". This coming from both sides. They all have blemishes.

This has indeed just turned into a big mud slinging fest by the majority here.

Every day the McCain supporters on this board sink deeper and deeper into the pit of stupidity. This whole thing over the birth certificate makes McCain supporters look like ignorant racists.

See. . .there yeah go!

We have genuine questions that need to be answered. We have every right and pretty much an obligation to ask them. . .but we're racist for doing so. It's the standard Obama supporter reaction.

And frankly, I think it's getting pretty sad. Obama is not above anything! I said that I thought ALL candidates should have to provide a birth certificate when they file for office. How in the hell is that being racist???

I'd like to know if there is ANY other candidate that hasn't provided his birth certificate when asked. I know McCain provided his. Obama doesn't get special treatment because he is bi-racial. The same rules apply to him as everybody else.

RACIST???? Are you out of your everloving mind? Questioning whether he was born in the US, hence is a US citizen has nothing to do with race! If he were a one-eyed, one-horned flying purple people eater--and people questioned his citizenship status because his mother was from Mars and his dad was from Venus, would you still claim racial bias?

Honestly? I think the birth certificate issue is a non-issue. I have to presume that people with more time, energy, and money than I have researched this, and there's nothing there. But to scream racism is just ludicrous!

I totally agree. Crying racism in that statement is what she viciously throws at others: stupidity. The only thing she's getting better at is constructing complete sentences instead of 1 word or 1 line staccato insults. So many of the things truble pounds out on the keyboard suit her very well and yet she flings it at others with venom.

Racism being drug into so many posts is unwarranted.
