See the excellent post by Freeper AndyJackson at #135 in this thread, the main takeaway being

I am not a Trump fan because, in my book, Trump is another person whose great personal success has been built on the pyramiding of debt by the US, public and private. The fortunes of his empire ebb and flow with quantitative easing as we have read for years in the papers.

what a horribly-written letter.

My thought as well. It reads more like he dictated a recording and it was transcribed by a staffer.

I can’t believe the people nitpicking about the writing style. What that means is he probably sat down and wrote it himself. How rare is that to get a rich powerful guy to actually put down what he is thinking without all the polishing and spinning by some minion media consultant to make sure that the sort of prigs who bitch about writing style will approve?


Yeah, if thats the only thing it means to these people its no wonder we got a man with a possible criminal past in the white house.

I think i know who Donald trump is although i have never even seen his picture, i have seen this man who calls himself Obama but who in the hell is he? i don,t know who he is or for sure what he is, what is his real name? who was his father? does any one even know?

I totally agree with the plain speech theme. This link goes to what I consider a great example. Hank Williams has been described as having the ability to make everyday simple language sound like great poetry and I agree.

“The silence of a falling star
lights up a purple sky.”

If that sentence don’t get to you you just ain’t country. Those few words create a world of mental images for me.


You got that right, now we are talking about the real thing, Hank is a good example of what this correct writing stuff is all about, he could not have made it in the political correct world, at the college,s, but he more than made it with the folks who had a much better education than he did and also the ones without an education, he got his message across to any one who were human being and knew a little of what life was all about.

Very very suspicious if not imposable. They had to be planted there in the archives in Hawaii.

THe investigators need to verify each individual on the list. If "Jerimiah Johnson" is shown on the a listing, then the investigators need to veryify the hospitol, doctor, DOB and if possible the whereabouts of "Jerimiah Johnson". If the list is a planted fake then false names may have been placed along with BHO's name.

I hope I don’t get flamed for my bad typing, spelling, and grammar, But I have to say that any time I link on to a thread here on FR about the truth of our leader-in-chief, I am amazed with the people that flame anyone that would like to know “0”’s beginnings. I hear that it is not important, that it is a distraction, that Trump didn’t write in high enough prose, etc.

Those that think it is a distraction, spend endless hours on these threads trying to make the rest of us feel small for asking questions. I need to know, “WHY” do you feel the need to do this?

I’m sorry, but I swore an oath to protect the constitution many years ago, and I have never been relieved of that obligation.

To all of you that dislike the “birthers” STF up and go back to DU where you belong.

I wouldn’t vote for Trump, but at least his voice is scarring the Hell out of the left.


Well wrote and well said, i am a grade school drop out and it don,t really matter to me what some one says about my grammar, if its wrong i will try to correct it but at the same time it makes me wonder about their IQ concerning the real issue.

I believe most Americans, or for that matter most people in the world would rather be a jack of all trades and master of none, rather than to just be good at one thing and not have no idea about anything else, gee, that would be a most terrible position to be in.

And i am saying this, giving them the benefit of the doubt about what they think they know.

I don’t care where he was born. Not one bit.

And you know what? He never will release the long form. Cause he doesn’t have to. He loves people like you discussing that while he goes out and destroys our country.

He is going to be president until he is defeated. Now we can moan and groan and wonder about where he came from but in the end it doesn’t matter one bit.

Now you are free to focus on his birth.

I am free to, and choose to focus on what the man is doing now, not where he came from which by the way, he had no control over that.


Your point is well taken, however if we can,t defeat him we need to find a way to get the guy out because we don,t like what he is doing to this country.

And with all of the socialist minded people in America today, can we defeat him? without that he would not have been elected to begin with, so i think that is a good question.

The saying is that all is fair in love and war, this is war, fight fire with fire, why not use the tactics that the socialists use? it has been working for them for years on the basis of lies, so why can,t we use it when its probably the truth?

We just need to be real sure about the facts. and if they are correct we need to let the people know so that at least some people who sincerely thought he was the real thing may not vote for him the next time around if they find out the truth.

Well, it sure looks like he might know how to defend America financially from the nations who want to destroy America in that matter.

But that is just my opinion with out knowing anything about it.

I think the letter is well written. The grammar is fine. It is short, comprehensible and to the point. But most important, it is accessible. After all, it is a rebuttal letter, not an article.

I agree wholly on your analysis of the letter. It is concise and accessible.

I also agree with your Trump analysis. No one talks about his bankruptcy. I am a New Yorker. I can not forget it.

I am still very glad he is out there getting attention to the birth issue which has been derided and covered up by the media - from the left and the right. Trump is a welcome gadfly.
