know all about it -- could you please explain the nexus between Obama's birth certificate and "racism",

Really..........after all this time, you still don't get it? Wow. You pride yourself on being so intelligent but on this particular subject you exhibit an IQ <100. Why is that? Decades of practice?

You call that an answer? I treat you like you were an adult and you reply with THIS?

LOL. That's all the answer you will get from me on the subject. I get real bored repeating myself. If you don't want to learn, then that's your problem not mine. And btw I am treating you like an adult as well.........with children, I might keep trying. ;)

He has never said he was born in Kenya...........that's another racist lie perpetrated by the right.

The evidence overwhelmingly suggests otherwise. For a period approaching 20 years he allowed the following bio to go unchallenged. In fact, until merely WEEKS before he decided to run for the presidency. The lie is yours, not the Right's.

Wow. It really pisses me that I have to do this again, and let me assure you its the last time, but anything to try and shut you up:

A possible source of the so-called "birther" issue--or at least a potential cause of the rumors that have dogged President Barack Obama--has been identified.

Obama's former literary agency misidentified his birthplace as Kenya while trying to promote the then-Harvard Law grad as an author in 1991.

According to a promotional booklet produced by the agency, Acton & Dystel, to showcase its roster of writers, Obama was "born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii."

Miriam Goderich edited the text of the bio; she is now a partner at the Dystel & Goderich agency, which lists Obama as one of its current clients.

"This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me--an agency assistant at the time," Goderich wrote in an emailed statement to Yahoo News. "There was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more."

Andrew Breitbart was never a "Birther," and Breitbart News is a site that has never advocated the narrative of "Birtherism." In fact, Andrew believed, as we do, that President Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on August 4, 1961.
