How can wanting the truth be so easily dismissed by anyone, as beating a dead horse, is beyond me.
Are you afraid of the truth?
Or is it just a case of, "well the government is going to hide this so why try"?
I'm guessing you just love Obama and are willing to ignore any violations to the Constitution under his watch.
I think we already have the truth. Birthers aren't willing to accept it. The difference between me and birthers is that if a Court examined irrefutable evidence and found President Obama ineligible, I WOULD believe it. I believe that many birthers, including some on this Board, will continue to see conspiracy regardless of evidence to the contrary -- because that's how they want it to come out. Certificate of Live Birth, video clip of POTUS being born during Hula Bowl half-time on the 50-yard line, family pictures of him laying in the Hawaiin nursery with a lei around his neck and wearing a grass skirt, Federal Court saying no merit -- doesn't matter. Many birthers are still going to be shouting conspiracy.
As for loving the guy, not hardly. However, I'm not ashamed to say I like him. Constitutional violations? Like what? No SCOTUS rulings on that. I was much more offended by liberties taken by the President George W. Bush administration.
snopes.com: Barack Obama Birth Certificate
snopes.com: Is Barack Obama a natural-born citizen of the U.S.?
all you have is snopes???? really ???? SnOpEs?????
Well we OR at least I have LEGAL ACTION sources, look at all of my past post about the Birth.
As a Kenyan native, Obama’s father was a British subject so Barack's citizenship was governed by that British Nationality Act.
And the wording for that is:
“British Nationality Act of 1948 (Part II, Section 5): Subject to the provisions of this section, a person born after the commencement of this Act shall be a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies by descent if his father is a citizen of the United Kingdom and Colonies at the time of the birth.”
I see this thread has gone the same way of several others. A subject with legitimate discussion is being carried out. I have some problems with both sides of the birth/citizenship issue and frankly still learn something each time it is brought up. But then the same group of liberal trolls shows up to shout down any discussion and soon the whole thread devolves into crap.

Considering his foreign policy is so similar to Bush's, it is nice someone will admit that Bush's foreign policy was anti-American.
My 76 year old mother sometimes refers to herself as Irish , she was born in Richmond.During a December 2007 speech in Tampa Florida, Michelle Obama stated, “What it reminded me of was our trip to Africa, two years ago, and the level of excitement that we felt in that country – the hope that people saw just in the sheer presence of somebody like Barack Obama – a Kenyan, a black man, a man of great statesmanship who they believe could change the fate of the world.”

YouTube - Michelle Obama: Barack Obama is a Kenyan and America is too mean
It would be quite a stretch to claim that Michelle Obama means anything other than that Obama was born in Kenya when she says that the President is “Kenyan”. When it comes to the term “home country,” there’s a little wiggle room, but saying that Obama is “a Kenyan” seems to be reasonably cut and dried.
This seems as straightforward as saying that Arnold Schwarzenegger is Austrian, because he was born in Austria. Of course, under the terms of Section 1 of Article Two of the United States Constitution, to be eligible to become President, an individual must be “a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States”. This prevents Schwarzenegger from ever becoming President, as it would make Obama’s presidency illegitimate if it was conclusively proven that he was born in Kenya.
We’ve largely sat on the fence regarding the whole “birther” issue, pointing out that there are legitimate arguments coming from both sides, but what’s not up for debate is the fact that Obama’s real name is Barry Soetoro, the name given to Obama at the time of his enrollment in an Indonesian elementary school.
Whatever the exact nature of the controversy, it seems inevitable that Obama is being blackmailed over his dubious origins, making it imperative that a proper investigation of the issue be conducted in the interests of both national security and the basic rule of law.

John Kennedy said, "I am a Berliner" or something to that effect. It didn't mean he was born in Germany.
Actually Johnny said "Ich bin ein Berliner", which means I am a Jelly Doughnut...
Dang you jeremy, now I am going to be thinking about Krispy Kreme all morning...
