Birther = Racist, there simple equation. There is nothing subtle about the racism involved in these people questioning Pres. Obama's qualifications. No one questioned Bush's qualifications, and it was known he was an average student, and never seemed too bright. YET, I respected the Office of the President even if I had no respect for the person holding the office. Birther foolishness shows there's not even a shred of respect for the office or the person.
As its been said and said again, if Barack Hussein Obama was white, if his middle name was not Hussein or if these stupid ass people could not let go of their imagined rights to own everything and everyone the issue of where he was born would have never been an issue. It's also clear they failed Civics in high school. Having one US Citizen parent gives the child citizenship, and he was born in Hawaii which is still part of the US last time I checked.
But we also know that these idiots will not let the matter rest, they will call the cert a forgery or claim every single person who has testified to the fact our POTUS is a USC was coerced, bribed or somehow part of some larger conspiracy. Take your pick of what the next ridiculous fantasy about Obama will be, but no one will let it rest.
Last time, He is a citizen, not a sekrit Muslim and not a hater of all things non-Black. He does not want to put Whites into slavery or take away your guns. He wants to be our President and its high time you fools shut up and let him do his job instead of having to have an actual fucking press conference about where he was born.
