Obama to speak on birth certificate

Ptif,

You really think Obama was born in Kenya, and then came to America... Lied about studying at Harvard, lied about his eduction, and wrote several books based on his fake life?

If he was that much of a conman, you'd think somebody, somewhere would know. Somebody at Harvard, somebody he was friends with, etc. would know the pieces weren't fitting together.

You're basically saying this president is the most brilliant conman in world history...

Andrew Jackson (1829-1837) is the only president born of two immigrants, both Irish. Presidents with one immigrant parent are Thomas Jefferson (1801-1809), whose mother was born in England, James Buchanan (1857-1861) and Chester Arthur (1881-1885), both of whom had Irish fathers, and Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921) and Herbert Hoover (1929-1933), whose mothers were born respectively in England and Canada.
Obama with be the 7th POTUS with at least one immigrant parent.

They are all from English speaking countries, so they do not count as foreign. Kenyan on the other hand, now that is super duper foreign.

There's no reasoning with a birther. It is incredible to me anyone would believe such nonsense.

Also, if all of that stuff is true, what is his endgame? At least 9/11 Truthers had a punchline to their joke of a conspiracy theory.

But ptif is even smarter than the most brilliant conman in the world because he figured it all out. IT ALL MAKES PERFECT SENSE!

I did. The order means you must get permission so yes they are sealed. He did rescind Bush's order but it is still hard to get to the records

http://obamacom.blogspot.com/2009/02/first-order-of-wh-business-obama-seals.html

This order does not expand or limit the rights of a court, House of Congress, or authorized committee or subcommittee of Congress to obtain access to the records of a former President pursuant to section 2205(2)(A) or section 2205(2)(C). With respect to such requests, the former President shall review the records in question and, within 21 days of receiving notice from the Archivist, indicate to the Archivist his decision with respect to any privilege. The incumbent President shall indicate his decision with respect to any privilege within 21 days after the former President has indicated his decision. Those periods may be extended by the former President or the incumbent President for requests that are burdensome. The Archivist shall not permit access to the records unless and until the incumbent President advises the Archivist that the former President and the incumbent President agree
to authorize access to the records or until so ordered by a final and nonappealable court order.

But less hard than it was, so he was not sealing his records. You are again factually challenged. :coffeepap

It's incredible to me how clueless people are about what just happened today. It turns out the birthers were exactly right and that all you losers voted for a guy that had no evidence of eligibility. You trampled on our constitution and called heroes kooks and racists. You're such useless citizens and should never be trusted to vote again. Really you should just get on a ship and leave. We'll give you the finger as you sail away.

The birthers would have been exactly right if the longform BC said he had been born in Kenya. Try again.

Again, who cares? People pose this crap which is just complete propaganda and when they get criticized for it their justification always is "Hey, we are just asking questions!" It's such nonsense. These are all non-issues. Considering the myriad of problems we are facing as a country, are the President's personal records really that much of a concern?

Yes they are

I'm just going to pretend this is a joke, if only to prevent me in losing what little faith in humanity I had left.

Free Republic, the Racist Garbage Dump?

That's your source?

BTW -- tell your friends over there it has nothing to do with his school records, his dental records, his Blockbuster rental records... It has to do with official business of the president while in office. Idiot racists over at Free Republic can't even read...

Oh yeah. They got right wing views. That means they're idiotic.

Like the faith in humanity I lost when you all ignored our costitution and couldn't see through the most flimsy of facts. Good, get on the ship and take your inhumanity with you. You're a danger to this great experiment in freedom.

Read the fine print...



Noting on the page you linked to, nor their source supports the idea that he 'spent money' to prevent people from getting his records.

The college records thing is even more racist than the birther thing... You're implying that a black man couldn't have gotten into Harvard without affirmative action. But he DID get in and he graduated top of his class and editor of the law review.

You far righties just can't say it: President Obama is an exceptional individual, I just don't like his politics...

I am not claiming nothing. I want to know why Obama has all these records sealed and why the Presidents records in the Illinois senate are missing
