here are many things one can criticize about President Barack Obama, but his status as a natural-born U.S. citizen should not be one.
The focus of some on the question of Obamas legitimacy as president because of his place of birth is a silly distraction.
That would be different if there were a shred of truth to it, but theres not, and its been pretty definitively shown.
Let us count the ways:
A copy of his Hawaiian birth certificate has been released.
Birth announcements appeared in Hawaiian newspapers in 1941.
A Kenyan birth certificate for Obama was shown to be a fake.
Bill OReilly pal to conservatives everywhere has called the claims of Obamas foreign birth, bogus.
Staff from FactCheck.org has actually seen and checked the authenticity of the original birth certificate.
McCains people checked into the legitimacy of claims about Obamas foreign birth during the election campaign they found them wanting.

So many blatant lies in such a short piece. These guys give idiots a bad name.
By Obama on the internet. It has been called a forgery by reputable document experts. He has never allowed the copy he released to be authenticated (fact check does not count).
I agree, it shouldn't be but why has he concealed all the records? Nothing to hide? Nothing should be hidden. Smoke=Fire!
