I
see that one of the other individuals who commented on the author's
piece has termed the debate over Obama's country of origin a "useless
issue." If Obama is, in fact, not a U.S. citizen, it means that he
defrauded the American people. If he is not a U.S. citizen, then,
logically, he was never eligible to run for president in the first
place. If he is proven NOT to be a U.S. citizen, a natural corollary
would be that he is NOT our president (we would be without a president
in such a case), and every piece of legislation he has signed, every act
he has ever performed as president, would become null and void.
I will tell you what scares the author of this blog and other liberals: they are afraid, deep down in their souls (so deep that they themselves may not even be aware of it), that Obama IS a fraud. That's why they seek to silence the "birthers," and why they're spending so much energy ridiculing the birthers, who, after all, are only seeking the truth. Since when is the seeking of TRUTH such a bad thing?
Deep down, most liberals are AFRAID that Obama really IS a fraud. If they didn't, they would not be spending so much energy trying to discredit the birthers.
It is not surprising that many people would not be the slightest bit bothered even if it were proven that Obama had defrauded the country by falsifying his birth records. For many people, FRAUD is a standard mode of operation. You must remember that SO MANY of the legislative bills liberals have managed to get passed and social policies that they have managed to get implemented have involved fraudulent means. The committing of fraud is not an exception among many liberals; it is the rule. Just look at ACORN.
Americans are rightfully concerned about Obama and are seeking ANY legitimate course of action to remove him from office -- NOT because he's a Democrat, NOT because he's black, and NOT because they especially care whether or not he was born in this country. Frankly, as long as his policies were not egregiously hurting the country, the birthers wouldn't even be worried about where he was born. MANY OF THE BIRTHERS VOTED FOR OBAMA. I AM A BIRTHER. I DID NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA, BUT I KNOW OTHER BIRTHERS WHO DID VOTE FOR OBAMA.
Because Obama's policies are so damaging to our country, the birthers are focusing on the "birth certificate" issue because proving that he defrauded the American people regarding his country of origin WOULD BE ONE WAY TO GET HIM OUT OF OFFICE NOW INSTEAD OF TWO YEARS FROM NOW. They want him out of office NOT because he's a Democrat, and NOT because he's black, but because his fiscal policies are bringing our country to its financial knees.
I did not vote for Barack Obama, because I suspected during the election that he would lead us to where we find ourselves today. You should also know that I noticed a tear in my eye upon seeing our first black president inaugurated, even though I vehemently disagreed with his policies. The tear in my eye was a warm, emotional HAPPY one -- not one of sadness or despair. His BLACKNESS did not bother me in the least. It was not a PLUS; it was not a MINUS. It was a moot issue. I would have joyfully voted for a Condoleezza Rice, or an Alan Keyes, or maybe a Colin Powell.
Of course, in the minds of many people, Condoleezza Rice and Alan Keyes do not qualify as being fully "black." I will tell you that these people are every bit as "black" as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, or anyone else who some might consider to be "really black." Legitimate, bona fide black people come in a VARIETY of packages, appearances, and characters, as do people of ANY ethnic origin. Each and every person of every color is UNIQUE, and their individuality should be respected. Shame on those of you who try to establish certain criteria that people must meet in order to be considered "truly black" or truly ANYTHING with regard to ethnicity. You are doing so ONLY to further your own narrow, self-serving agendas, political and otherwise.

Gary,

I use - Chairman Obama - since I know he was not born in Kapi’olani hospital as he claims and the former Hawaii Governor lied saying he was born in Kapi’olani. Interesting to note Author: James Porter refers to Chairman Obama as President Obama four times, Barack Obama twice, Obama twice and Mr. Obama eight times. Seems he may have some doubt.
I believe there is no issue that Barack Obama is an American citizen! Arnold Schwarzenegger's is an American citizen. But they are not natural born.
He refers to “..the kooky Birthers and their insane charges..” He fails to show the other side his side the Stupid Marks. For you west coasters a mark is a Bernie Madoff client, someone that believed Bill when he lied that he did not have … until they found the stained dress and John “That’s not my baby” Edwards before he was exposed as a liar.
His suggestion of a video comment “.. showing Obama as he came out of the womb with the placenta attached and Don Ho in the background playing Hawaiian music on his ukulele.” The certifying physician that delivered the Chairman would be a better choice.
“… Come on people, we have much bigger fish to fry…” there is no bigger fish than this. Chairman Obama was NOT thoroughly vetted; he has NOT shown his birth certificate. The Birthers will wear down the insane Marks.
Mr. Porter is a racist and a sexist due to the fact he believes Chairman Obama is Black. The Hawaii COLB lists Chairman Obama’s mother’s RACE as CAUSIAN. I’m sure all Marks understand that the mother was WHITE. The father’s race was not identified.
“They will play on white Americas fears of a Negro/Latino nation ..” Birthers know Latino’s are of the WHITE race.
There are many questions, where is the long form birth certificate. Who was Chairman Obama’s illegal drug dealer what’s with the SS #? I agree America should wake up before it’s too late!
