I am caucasion/white. I can never be president under our current laws. I was born outside the U.S. To me, race has nothing to do with the issue of place of birth. Why do people seem to confuse these two, and then protest 'racism'... I just don't see the connection. I personally believe that the racism card/threat/insult is just a smoke-screen to refuse to actually deal with the issues clearly, fairly and with a level-head. It just seems more fun I suppose to rile people up and play the accusatory role than to calmly express a viewpoint one way or the other. That's one reason I tend to stay away from politics. Too much hot-headedness and too little basic logic presented with philosophical integrity.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06370095814271780946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-27484795143674278962011-05-06T05:46:36.580-04:002011-05-06T05:46:36.580-04:00Obama has not resolved anything.

Regardless, Obama was born British, and by that fact alone is already ineligible.<br />If the well known (irrefutable) reason for the natural born Citizen requirement was to prevent foreign influence, then how could Obama, admittedly born British, possibly be a natural born Citizen, eligible to be POTUS?Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02864660386925998491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-52222183171275989612011-05-06T00:46:11.727-04:002011-05-06T00:46:11.727-04:00And it wasn't just the race card either.

Many on the right swore that no mere certificate would ever convince the birthers. <br /><br />Although not a birther myself, I resented the implication that one had to be an unhinged lunatic just because someone felt that a presidential candidate/president should provide a very basic form of ID to attain the highest office in the land.

Are you really a lawyer? Have you not seen this?<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nW_PWzhgvDs<br /><br />How can you ignore that the POTUS put out a fake official US document? How do you accept that 1 born British is supposedly a natural born Citizen, eligible to be POTUS, when the VERY REASON for the requirement was to prevent foreign influence?

"<br /><br />Uh no, reread the text you quoted. The number that still believe he was born outside the US is 10% not 1%. 1% is the number who still believe they have hard evidence to support their position. The mistaken belief has dropped in half but that still leaves an awful lot of people who believe what they want to believe despite the evidence. It also means the evidence does not support your contention that race could not play a role.Tlalochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16357673798336376049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-33524401075055541112011-05-05T14:52:44.887-04:002011-05-05T14:52:44.887-04:00Updated my post, Professor.

They had "more important" things to focus on. And so we now find ourselves languishing in that GOP "standing around doing nothing" vacuum we were in before Trump flipped the tables. <br /><br />It's hopeless. We can only discuss things if "polite society" first deems them suitable to be discussed among the "non-retards".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1522121129844880066.post-81561207057082876182011-05-05T13:41:35.350-04:002011-05-05T13:41:35.350-04:00One problem.
