I said that if Obama did not want to send a copy of his Hawaii birth certificate to an unknown person like me, then I suggested that he send it to the news media like ABC---where Trump recently sent a copy of his long form birth certificate---CBS, NBC, CNN, and FoxNews.

I suppose he could, but then how would that be different from him allowing Factcheck staff to inspect it, which he has already done?

******

Excuse me, but are you having trouble counting? Are you just trying to be funny?

Factcheck= one internet website.

My point is this: If you don't have a computer or access to the internet, then you are out of luck if you want to read what is on FactCheck's website. And even if you had a computer and access to the internet, Factcheck is a site that many people don't trust at all.

ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, Foxnews = 5 national tv newsmedia, each with very large number of viewers, with a combined viewer population that would make Factcheck look like an ant in comparison.

I'm sorry but I can't help laughing at your ludicrous suggestion that somehow internet website FactCheck is equal in stature and credibility to world-wide news media outlets ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and Foxnews.

Did it even occur to you that there are a lot of people in the United States and all over the world who have never heard of FactCheck, even if they have a computer and have access to the internet?

You are kidding with me, right? Seriously, are you really pointing to obscure and controversial internet website FactCheck as a major credible source---an internet site that many Americans and people throughout the world have never heard of, especially if the people don't have a computer and access to the internet---when it comes to this Obama birth certificate mess? Too funny.

The same people who distrust Factcheck, namely birthers, also distrust the MSM, even Fox, so I don't see how distributing copies of it to ABC, CBS, CNN, Fox and the rest would satisfy any of them. Likewise, the birther controversy has been largely confined to the internet, so I really don't see the imperative of reaching people without online access, who most likely hadn't even heard of the controversy.

Finally, it's not like the COLB is the only piece of evidence. It's corroborated by the birth announcements as well as by official statements from Hawaii's Health department.

That's going to be enough to convince everyone except staunch Obama opponents who would never vote for him, anyway.

I therefore don't see any reason for him to provide any more evidence that he has already one.

Can you come up with one?
