Good summary. How and why Obama was nominated as the Democrat presidential candidate, without producing a birth certificate, is beyond honest comprehension. Perhaps Obama’s approval as the Democrat candidate should be more disconcerting than issues about Obama himself. His nomination, under such circumstance, confirms an influential, but largely unrecognized political malignancy metastasizing within the United States? Did Obama really offer anything beyond being well-spoken and arrogant politician? In contrast to his otherwise pedestrian qualifications remains his being dealt the politically-correct, black ace of trump. That black ace -- for a while at least -- can be used to finesse the honest questioning of his birth-right legitimacy -- while still keeping Obama presidency under convenient progressive control. The birth-right issue is too obvious to be an inadvertent political oversight. It may serve an important progressive purpose. Challenging Obama's questionable pedigree could be guaranteed to foments racial and political divisiveness. That in turn would divert public attention from it's underlying pathology. As they say, “It’s hard to keep your eye on the objective when you’re up to your ass in alligators.” Fortunately, Obama’s usefulness as progressive shill is not without a useful lifespan limitation – a finesse works but once. Odds are Obama will become sacrificial to the progressive cause when his usefulness has been exhausted -- what a delightful diversion of attention that will provide.
