What, are we supposed to call Doc Brown so he can make us a time machine that will let us go back in time and witness the birth of Obama? :? What does it matter? He has less than two years left anyway.

Hypothetically, if Obama could send troops to every US citizens' home, make them look at the birth certificate at gunpoint, those people that doubt it now would probably still doubt it.

actually the fact that he would be taking such accusations that seriously I would begin to suspect he wasn't born here. I still wouldn't care as it doesn't really affect the job he is doing, but still.

Forged... not goo enough... I need blood samples, athomospheric conditions, eye witness reports, video evidence, chemical levels in the water and for Barack Obama to be white for me to belive he was not born in Kenya...

ah however you are forgetting one thing in this argument with me. I actually don't care if he's a natural born citizen or not.

edit and by you I mean anyone actually looking to engage in this pointless argument.

Except that his citizenship has already been well proven and shouldn't be an issue to anyone with any measure of rational thought.

His birth cirtificate has been publically displayed. The Governor and the Secretary of Health of the state he was born in have confirmed it. There are even newspapers from the time he was born confirming it.

It just totally blows my mind how dumb some of these people are. Besides the fact that it has already been proven with his birth certificates and such that he was born in the United States, but do these people really think that ANY of his political rivals, on either side, would really have allowed him to get this far when many of them have the power and means to do enough investigations to actually prove whether or not he is a citizen? Do they really think that McCain or even Hilary during the last elections, didn't consider this and do a little searching of their own in hopes of possibly using it against him? Some people need to wake up and start worrying about things that matter.

Not that it matters at this point, but when people argue against the Birthers, all too often they are factually incorrect. Even the Pro-Obama people don't claim to have produced a "birth certificate." What has been flying around the internet is a "certificate of live birth" which, from my understanding, is a document that basically certifies that a child was born, but doesn't meet the same standards of scrutiny of an actual birth certificate.

Before people claim to have seen the actual birth certificate, I would suggest they read some of the articles written about Gov. Ambercrombie's (Hawaii) attempts to find the actual birth certificate. As of yet, he has been unable to locate it, and his is supposedly a close personal friends of the Obama's and Barack's parents. I'm not bothering to find a link, you guys/gals can read it if you like.

As for my personal opinion, I'm not really a fan of Obama's presidency so far, and I guess at times I wonder about the whole birth place thing, but it doesn't really mean anything right now. He's already in so it's not like anything would change the laws that have thus far been enacted.

I want Obama to prove he wasn't born in the US. That way it can set the precedent for AHNULD SHUHTSANAYGUH to become the President, then he can take the reigns and personally terminate Osama Bin Laden and Sadam Hussein's brain-in-a-jar.

I think it started because he spent a lot of time overseas as a youth (and the name Barrack Hussein Obama doesn't help). That and a lot of his school records remain sealed and he never released an actual birth certificate (read my previous post about the certificate of live birth). I think that Obama likes the debate about it though. Keeps a lot of anti-Obama people preoccuppied.

I know it's silly, i just want as much of their information as possible to be available to the public. Maybe his fingerprints or anything.

*sigh*

If you asked me to produce my original birth cirtificate guess what - I couldn't do it. The original was destroyed in a fire 30 years ago. And at this point neither the hospital nor the state have photocopies on the original still on file. A couple of years ago I had to get a copy of my birth certificate. What I recieved from the state of Kentucky looked much like what Obama has there, and was considered unquestional proof of my birth in Paducah, McCracken County, Kentucky, United States of America. But it wasn't the original birth cirtificate, only a cirtificate of live birth, so I guess this means I'm not really a natural born US citizen afterall. :(

I don't find it that surprising. There are still people who think that we never landed on the moon. People who think that 9/11 was an inside job. Doesn't really surprise me.

His birth certificate, for all legal intents and purposes, has been produced. That was my point. Doesn't matter if it's the original or not. It's all good, legal, and as far as the courts, the government, and everybody, except for Tea Baggers and followers of Alex Jones, are concerned proof of his birth in the United States.

YellowOneKinobi

The document is a "certification of birth," also known as a short-form birth certificate. The long form is drawn up by the hospital and includes additional information such as birth weight and parents' hometowns. The short form is printed by the state and draws from a database with fewer details. The Hawaii Department of Health's birth record request form does not give the option to request a photocopy of your long-form birth certificate, but their short form has enough information to be acceptable to the State Department... He also confirmed that the information in the short form birth certificate is sufficient to prove citizenship for "all reasonable purposes."

http://www.factcheck.org/elections-2008/born_in_the_usa.html

Before people claim to have seen the actual birth certificate, I would suggest they read some of the articles written about Gov. Ambercrombie's (Hawaii) attempts to find the actual birth certificate. As of yet, he has been unable to locate it, and his is supposedly a close personal friends of the Obama's and Barack's parents. I'm not bothering to find a link, you guys/gals can read it if you like.

YellowOneKinobi

In an attempt to quash persistent rumors that President Obama was not born in Honolulu on Aug. 4, 1961, Hawaii's health director reiterated Monday afternoon that she has personally seen Obama's birth certificate in the Health Department's archives:

"I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawaii State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen.

People couldn't fathom that a black man became President, so they concluded that he must not be an American citizen. Seriously. That's what it boils down to. Do you think a single one of these birther idiots would be crying foul if Obama was white?

This is just stupid. How did this whole birther thing start, anyways?

People couldn't fathom that a black man became President, so they concluded that he must not be an American citizen. Seriously. That's what it boils down to. Do you think a single one of these birther idiots would be crying foul if Obama was white?

How does that make sense if he won a majority of the white vote?

None of them were questioning John McCain's cirtizenship, despite the fact that McCain actually wasn't born in the United States.

He didn't say all white people... just a group of them...

Gotcha. I misread that. Although, I would say that there are probably a good number of "birthers" that are so primarily because Obama is a relatively liberal democrat, and would probably do so regardless of his skin color. That doesn't make crazies any less crazy, but I'm not sure if all of them are just thinking exclusively about race. But, I have been wrong before.

I'm not sure the term "racist" really applies....... but you did say "in my eye" and you definitely have a right to that opinion.

I think it does apply, this undertone has been going on since the election. He's some kind of "foreign" outsider who isn't a citizen even with the OVERWHELMING evidence that he is. Yet these nut jobs didn't say anything when bush, Clinton, Regan were running for office but all of a sudden some guy named Obama's citizenship is at question ?

Exactly. the evidence McCain was not born in America was and is much stronger than any evidence (none) that Obama wasn't. Yet none of these birther lunatics seem to really care about that. The birther movement is about getting a black guy out of the oval office, period. Utterly shameful, moreso that Huckabee was trying to appeal to them.

Yeah, but Bush, Clinton and Reagon didn't spend the majority of their youth overseas. I think thats the bigger issue. But again, thats my opinion and you're certainly entitled to disagree with me.

I find it funny how most of you guy's say that the birthers are ignorant racists, cause ya know it's sort of ignorant to assume that their all racists. Remember guys, only Siths deal in absolutes.
