A President who is not a legally born citizen IS A BIG DEAL. It's illegal.

I agree, it is a big deal. But, if he is not an American citizen, then we have a Constitutional crisis on our hands. And, that will be horrible. Of course, it would be one way to get rid of Obamacare, and a couple of un-qualified Supreme Court Justices; but, the war that would be waged over this would be bloody.

I have often wondered myself why he just doesn't present the damned certificate. I first thought that perhaps he wants this controversy so that he could pummel republicans over the head with it. I am now wondering if he is hiding something, especially after the dimwit Governor of Hawaii decided, so publically, to find the birth certificate and present it --- only to find, the hospital can't find it (oh, wait, no the second excuse is that he is not the person of record, so he can't have the certificate -- right). The big thing would be not having been born in the United States. Second, maybe his parents were not actually married. I'm sure there could be other reasons; but, I give Trump credit for taking the flak and asking the questions.

Agreed. Presenting a valid birth certificate would end this and make all of ‘us’ look like fools if we’re wrong.You know they’d like to- so why not do it?
The only reason to stonewall is if we’re right.
Constitutional crisis is the main problem. What if this nation were to find itself with an unqualified President? Methinks there are those in power who would rather tough this out till his term ends( assuming Obama will allow that to happen), and avert the crisis and decision altogether.
What if it were proven he was foreign born-then we’d have a part of this country insisting that his removal would be more damaging than letting him sit.
I would not be one of them. Is the U.S. ready to see a President put out of office and uphold the law despite the controversy? It comes down to that-and as the pressure builds I have to surmise that there are those on BOTH sides who don’t want to deal with the travesty that has been foisted upon this nation.
