White House Releases Copy of Long Form of Obama's Birth Certificate From Hawaii

Here's a hypothsis making the rounds. In return for some promise secured from 0bama, Trump is making this noise about running for President. This is to weaken whoever might become the Retardican nominee. 0bama is weakening in popularity and can only win like Clinton won in 1996. That would be to have someone siphon votes away from the Retardican. (Think Ross Perot) Trump not only could do this, 0bama seems to be helping Trump gain strength so that Trump can confuse and weaken the Retardicans. Is not the release of this birth certificate info now, somewhat suspicious? Additionally, this so called birth certificate is already being questioned as to authenticity. Why release a fake? In order to help Trump, split the Retardican vote, and get the Dumbocrat 0bama relected. If later on Trump runs as an independent, he will have shown his hand as a Ross Perot wannabe spoiler candidate and verify the above hypothesis. Remember, the above is only a hypothesis. However, it fits the known facts.

Are you just waking up to the reality of Hussein O...? He just release the info to divert folks from other stuff that he is hiding that would really cause him problems...I hope Trump digs some more.

I didnt hear his speach I try not to even look at him. ANd I have seent his so called certificate that looks brand new no creases now wear and tear on it like mine and most people I know . Even if it was just put in a file you would think there might be one wrinkle on it. Obama so full of BS its sicking

Gee, I don't know where to begin, whiteheather! Let me start by saying what I'm about to write has absolutely nothing to do with my personal views of our President or his policies but simply on this issue and this issue alone. In my opinion, it's been the birthers like Donald Trump, Orly Taitz and others who have used the American people as the butt of their amusement. I couldn't agree more that we all have "better stuff to do" than listen to the garbage spewed by an arrogant egomaniac who thinks because he's a wealthy and famous business man he's somehow better than the rest of us. The overwhelming majority of Americans wasn't playing a bit of attention to the birthers until Trump, with the help of the media who gave him much more credibility than he ever deserved, started showing up on every single network every hour of every day repeating the same lies over and over again. The fact of the matter is the President had already presented all that is necessary legally according to the laws of the state in which he was born. I can understand perfectly why he took so long to show his "long form" birth certificate, even if he could have easily gotten it without sending his personal attorney to Hawaii and requesting a special waiver so he could go around the state's regular policy and be allowed to have photo copies made; why would ANYONE want to dignify the accusations made by people who had such a strong hatred towards him they wouldn't accept that he was "one of us"? Let's hope two things were put to rest today - the idiotic birther issue and the fake Presidential candidacy of Donald Trump, the biggest fraud in the world! There, that was MY rant for the day...be careful what you ask for...lol! Annie

This is not the first time that Obama has allowed others to see his birth certificate and it has been confirmed by Hawaiian officials before, it is just the first time that the long form has been released. I respect Obama for finally getting in front of us and telling us that he is tired of all of the questioning of his birth certificate. Are the American people stupid enough that we believe that these things are not checked out before a person is allowed to be voted into office? Get serious about the real issues- high gas, low job rate, etc. I really wouldn't care if he was born in the US or not as long as he would handle the problems that we have in this country? Yes, I believe that a President should be American born, but at this time, I just want to see changes in the future of this country.

Assuming Obama did this because of Trump, and I will definitely be one to assume that, this is the best possible thing that could have ever happened for a Donald Trump presidential run. Now what's there to make Trump look like a loon? (Other than his hair and need for building golf courses and all that... but anyway.) Bad move on Obama's part. He intentionally kept this away from the public like an Area 51 deal. By neither confirming or denying, the folks did what the folks do. But now that he's put it out there, Trump will most likely--after spinning it as fraud or too convenient for a while--be forced to speak only of issues. My guess is that Obama assumes (more like Obama's uberprogressive, borderline commie advisors) Trump can win because everyone on the right is a birther. I see the FAILboat on the horizon, and Obama's the puppet captain. When it comes to how The Donald would handle the country compared to The Messiah, the folks are going to side with Donald, I think, because he doesn't spit the pipe dream nonsense. The hardcore folks who bought into the I-have-a-dream redux will still be feeding Obama grapes and clipping his toenails in their mind's eye. But individuals sick of hearing his brand of BS will definitely rush to Donald. Of course, Trump probably won't make it out of the Republican primaries, but this is bad for Obama in case Trump does. Donald will tear Obama limb from limb in any debate because, as we all know, debates aren't about issues. Politics isn't about issues. Issues aren't even about issues. Everything's about the booyah moment and how you come across to uninformed voters. Donald will hand out beatdowns head to head without the "he wasn't even born here" stuff spewing out.

Now lets see his budget and detailed plans for the country?

I feel like this has been a huge waste of our time and energy and thoughts. It would have been so simple and would have kept our focus where it needed to be. He should not be beyond the rules that everyone else has to follow. It is, as you say, disrespectful of us as American citizens.

It is this narcissistic attitude that the liberals seem to love. If I tell you I am great, you should just believe it. If you gave a fig for the country he would have produced this two and half years ago. We as Americans have EVERY right to question his eligibility.

At least we know President Obama shelled out some two million dollars to play his game with the American people like a child plays with his toys.President Obama has the nerve to call the people silly that was lead by the President himself to think he was hiding something.As the commander in chief Obama sent young men and women off to two bloody wars,many will never be coming home again.I can only wonder what our brave troops are thinking of President Obama's admission to playing head games for his personal amusement,shameful.I know President Obama's supporters are gloating because Col:Lt Terry Lakin was sent to prison for six months and stripped of all he had eared his twenty years of devoted service to our county for daring to question President Obama over his citizenship.I think Terry Lakin should be reinstated everything he was stripped of as he learning today all along the commander in chief was playing a childish game.Donald Trump may have only begun the citizenship controversy for President Obama.I wonder being President Obama was adopted by his own admission why is it his Hawaii Birth certificate has his name as Barack Obama Jr? Donald Trump knowingly or not knowing may have just opened a bigger can of worms.

You know, I wonder how much of it is true. Being a president, he has a lot of strings he could pull to make up his birth certificate to show that he was born in the USA when in truth, he really wasn't. For anybody to lie or hide such important information for so damned long really gets under my skin! It shows, what is he hiding and why?!

Maybe I have never understood anything as I´m not an american citizen. But this could not have happened in my country. In my country, if anyone wants to run for President, he/she must be chilean, born in Chile. Birth certificate is mandatory to prove that.

I wonder why he was voted into the position without a clear information on his personality. Here in our country, the only qualification for one to be elected president is that he is a Filipino citizen and that he can read and write. I am sure it is somewhat the same in the US because our constitution was derived from Uncle Sam's. What if it was discovered (hypothetically) that Obama was not an American citizen based on his birth certificate? How would America take that?
