So now you're saying that Hillary is a racist?
She was the one that brought this whole thing up.
But I can give her some benefit of the doubt -
see that note in Obama's book as to his birthplace, and that other document that was posted here that said that he was not born in the USA (Hmmm - sounds like a song, no?).
Just like Ms. Warren saying that she is part Cherokee until it was proven to be not true (well, 1/1024 which might be considered to be in the noise regime).
But a fellow Democrat brought the issue up - whether other presidential candidates were questioned for this in the past I don't know.
An unbiased person would likely agree that it is reasonable for verification to be provided in this case where there is doubt which was actually due to admissions of the candidate himself.
Ridiculous?
Citizenship is a base ***requirement*** for the job.
Doesn't it say that in some very important document?
Or am I wrong, it is just "a tradition" thing?
I think it is documented somewhere important.
Requests for verification are especially important where the candidate had ***published*** in their book the fact - true or not - that he was a non-citizen; hardly racist (I'm pulling for you Hillary!)
unless you consider that any challenge against a person of color, no matter how reasonable, is ... racist (which would reveal a person with that opinion as being a bigot and a racist).
What is not a requirement for the job (but perhaps considered traditional, at least for a number of decades)is revealing tax returns - and some people harassed a president over that relatively trivial matter (trivial - because it is not a requirement for the job!).
All that being said, for me, I saw another Obama birth certificate that was not on this board.
I downloaded it (a long while ago) from the White House web site, when Obama was president, so I assume it was put up with with his good permission.
It was in a very strange format (and you can do a search and find confirmation of this) - it was in layers, very obvious using Adobe Illustrator, with things off in different layers, like signatures - as if the document was altered but the alledged forger didn't have the sense or knowledge or was just careless to collapse the layers --- or --- wanted to make it controversial for some reason.
Does it make it a forgery?
Who knows.
But it is highly suspicious, and most unbiased people would give it a high probability for the reasons I've stated.
Why post something that raises suspicions?
Weird.
And why so many versions... (I was surprised when I saw the ones recently posted here).
Make no mistake here - I am not saying that Obama was not born here
or that he was an "illegitimate president" (cough) because of that.
But the suspicions were first brought up by a fellow democrat and all of these circumstances are very very suspicious.
If people doubted my qualifications of my job because some sort of certification was in doubt, I would show that certification and make sure that it was ***presentable*** with ***no question about it*** to shut their fat faces up! Or maybe it wouldn't shut their fat faces up, but I would have done my part which reasonable people could not question. |
