and the thing is, it didnt stop the troofers eitherExactly.
The difference with birthers and truthers...
The Bush adnministration immediately released all information to allow the truthers to make an educated decision.
The Obama camp continually avoided producing anything until they had no choice.....it was a calculated move to make the right look bad.
so, Obama learned from Bush's mistake
trying to appease the nutters doesn't work
he's not "my guy" and yet he has produced the required document with the official state seal and notary stamp on it
AFTER months of requests to do so.
Why did he wait so long?
Was it outrageous for anyone to ask a man running for president to produce such documents? Especially since he admitted publicly that his father was not a citizen and no longer living in the US?
Was it such a rediculous request that he could not take the 2 minutes to pull it out of his wallet and show it to the hundreds of cameras that were following him around?
I mean...really? Was he relly too busy to do it?
Come on...youre a smart guy. He played the people in an effort to make them look silly.
Why would someone who loves America want to intentionally make Americans look silly?
His father's nationality matters not under the law, and he knows it.
But why should he have to wave his personal, private birth certificate around for the cameras? Why should he have to release his personal documentation publicly to satisfy people who can never be satisfied?
And if it's so important, why was there not already a mechanism in place by which he submitted his documentation, securely, privately and legally, to the proper authorities in either the States or at the Federal level to be examined and his eligibility determined along with every other canddiate? It's not like he's the first POTUS candidate to have his status questioned, not by a long shot.
True..he was not the first having it questioned.
But he wqas the first that I am aware of that did not produce the documentation upon first request.
And why should he?
Becuase he is running for the highest position in the land. Out of respect for our republic, he should have gladly saitisfied the request of the people....whether the law required him to or not.
Let me ak you this...why wouldnt he want to?
