  • Obama is not a natural born citizen. End of question

    Proof has been abundant and conclusive but as Michelle says, "thank god, we have the media on our side."

  • Obama released a COLB which is just as valid as the original. I know because all i have is a COLB, and it has been accepted everywhere I was asked to produce my BC. School, K-College, organizations, Passport, You name it. I have never in my life been asked to produce the signature of the doctor who delivered me or the name of the hospital where I was born. There is no such thing as a COLB and the original having conflicting countries of birth. All the info IS THE SAME ON BOTH. This a joke

  • Just show the original birth certificate and not the certificate of live birth and this issue is finished. Simple.

  • @lamase24 he released the original. Are you satisfied now??

  • @LITEBRITE65 yes

  • Respond to this video...  yes, and should have been done at the outset

  • We miss you Lou Dobbs. Come back please, and soon.

  • Four words: Terry Lakin Convicted Felon

  • Its stupid how many americans are brainwashed, uninformed and misled by their puppet leaders. The only ppl that dont know how CORRUPTED are US leaders. Is the americans.

    No offence for ppl that are informed but more to the "educated". Those "educated" ppl that obviously dont even know how to use their brain.

    Education: In the largest sense is any act or experience that has a formative effect on the mind, character or physical ability of an individual.

    You are owned by the media education...

  • we have some freakin crazy people in this country

  • As the evidence shows Obama is a native-born US Citizen, and he says so on his FightTheSmears site. But, he is a native-born US Dual Citizen. He may have been born in Hawaii, but his citizenship is not pure USA. COTUS Article 2 Section 1 Clause 5, says "No person except a natural born Citizen"... A natural born Citizen is a native-born on US soil and of pure USA citizenship.

  • lou dobbs simply said end the debate entirely - what's so hard about releasing his birth records? no a copy of a copy, but the hospital birth records? the race card is overplayed, give it up.

  • repu. are stupied they dont want to bring terrorists to justice on are land and laws but say john mccain was born in america when he was born on a u.s.base in panama.guantamano bay is a base in cuba are laws should still apply.

  • If CNN thinks Lou is a problem- maybe we can get him a spot on FOX. He has guts, and stands up for what he believes. The progressives just blow things out of proportion! Get real people- Dobbs is no racist- it's the same thing they say about anyone who doesn't AGREE with everything they want!

  • debora, When he did the Business news & started sounding the alarm he was my favorite! Dobbs unfortunately sold out years ago & now he appeals to teabaggers. Fame & fortune has bought his ideals....how pathetic indeed!

  • Media Matters.....need I say more?! These are the people who have meetings to decide who to "attack"- that like to take things out of context. Lou Dobbs is not perfect- but I still like him, and consider him to be an honest journalist with integrity. It's hard to accept there are 2 sides to every issue- but there is. I have to say though- my side does have some pretty off the wall comments on here...come on....we don't have to all agree, why call people names?

  • Fox News is a Pot calling the kettle black.

  • I use to respect Dobbs when he 1st started sticking up for the common man but now..How pathetic!

  • Comment removed

  • "Media renders final verdict" - now that made me laugh! Thank goodness that the media don't get to render "verdicts" on such issues. Most of them still use COLB and BC interchangeably, "citizen" and "natural born citizen" interchangeably, don't understand the difference between primary and secondary proof, and can't read any of the statements made by Hawaii, Lingle, Factcheck, etc. properly. What a bunch of dopes! I'm no fan of Dobbs, but he's right on this one (and hasn't much company!)

  • There are no such thing as birthers. It is a word made up to make people hesitant into investigating or asking the questions the media is not asking.. It is really effective against weak minded individuals. Kennedy invited any criticism and called it our duty. Bush and Obama have used the same tactics and called any criticism a roadblock in the peace movement. Can you see the brainwashing?

  • So you want to see the country still move in the direction that Bush was taking it? To utter banckruptcy due to inaction? Wow. The definition of an under acheiver, huh?

    The man is American. Get over that. He has lived in HI, was a Chicago Senator and for some reason, NOT ONE mention if he was American born at that time (not relavent for the Sentate, but I'm sure some asshole would have wanted to bring it up.

    America has a Black President and I, for one, say ABOUT TIME!

  • a certificate of live birth is not a birth certificate. You liberal fucks!!!!

  • this is all so obvious folks. back during the campaign lou slobbs got upset with obama for deeming him un important and a nobody, that mr slobbs has had a hard on for obama since then. he simply got his feelings hurt.

  • the truth hurts. Go Dobbs. Expose President Zero on the road to perdition.

  • This is the question,do we abide by the constitution or does power do what it wants to do? Without the constittution we are nothing but a mob and our leaders are despots. A reporter is supose to ask questions. Dobbs never said Obama is not a citizen.

  • Why was it legitimate to questions Bush's election victories in 2000 and 2004 but it's not for Dobbs to ask questions about why hasn't the birth certificate issue. If you actually look at Dobbs has asked, the only question that he's asked is why hasn't the administration but this case to rest. when they could. Looks like we've gone from right wing spin to left wing spin.

  • Lou Dobbs is the only person I am strongly against that is on the CNN network

  • Huh? Anarchists are also known as libertarian socialists.

    (dot) huppi (dot) com /kangaroo/ L - socialism (dot) htm

    Ever heard of Mikhail Bakunin? Peter Kropotkin? Pierre-Joseph Proudhon?

  • It's about ratings, racism, xenophobia, lunacy, poor-losers, etc... anything BUT FACTS & REAL NEWS!

    Odd, how legitmate questions about Bush's service in the Nat'l Guard caused such outrage ... and scorn yet "Birthers" get air-time and are legitimized by kooks like Lou Dobbs & others.... what an asinine country we live in!

  • It's all about ratings... I knew Dobbs was an idiot when he was goin on about illegal immigration so I'm not surprised at this.. Olberman, Matthews, Hannity, and O'Reilly are kickin that ass every night. No more room at the table fat man. Somebody needs introduce him to Mike Golic and Dan Marino so he get that diet right!

    Has anyone noticed how many health insurance commercials run on Fox nowadays. Damn!

  • I 100% agree with you. And did you notice how at @1:23 they denigrated the spherical earth skeptic community? Of course they wouldn't give them air time. Because they are too afraid to ask the questions that matter the most.

  • msnbc is so bogus,a chill up his leg?? LMFAO. I now have a reason to watch CNN and it is to see Lou Dobbs, the only intelligent show they have.

  • What people really need to know is that Mr. Lou Dobbs is a life-long "republican" who has tried to make himself look like he sides with both sides of the Isle under the guise of an "Independent".

    He is not, and most often sides with republican views.

    FYI: His show on CNN is down in ratings 20% after his moronic perpetuation of Obama's birth certificate and on-going views that don't represent CNNs middle of the road view point.

  • i know, the guy is anti-liberals, anti-diversity, and now anti-president, whats wrong with him, cant he just join fox already

  • do you mean both sides of the "aisle"?

  • Leave Lou Dobbs alone you dumb fucks. I love all these asshole who protect Obama at all cost. Especially the black guys they put on CNN and MSNBC all the time. Give me a break you sorry scumbags. You dumb motherfuckers wouldn't care if the POTUS was from SOUTH AMERICA

  • dobbs is a f'n maniac on this. what other elected politician has lou dobbs challenged as not being born in the united states? why is obama the only one attacked on this issue? it is biased right wing bs, and wouldn't be taking place if obama wasn't half black.

  • really? Obama was born in the U.S. and Lou Dobbs is an idiot. You're a racist, "Especially the black guys they put on CNN and MSNBC all the time." Give up, you suck!

  • messrsx8,

    They're just using socialism as synonym for bad, and anything that's bad is socialism. The joker is bad. Thus he is a socialist. Obama is bad. Thus he is a socialist. Thus, Obama is a Socialist Joker.

    I counted 4 logical flaws in that statement summarizing the logical process that makes Obama the Joker. See if you can find them too!

  • Wow, one of the few times you had a video about MSNBC and FOX togeter and they weren't trying to castrate each other. This whole country's gone down the tubes. I don't even call myself American anymore, it's just too embarressing. Not to the rest of the world, I don't care about them, but to my forefathers and what we have given up just for so-called "power".

  • Wow. EVen Pravda and the BBC had less biased coverage. It seems citizens don't have the right to vet the President. Natural Born Citizen, not citizen and nobody has proven it to date. This should have been taken care of 2 years ago.

  • Leave it to mainstream media to get in a dogfight to midnight over nothing. Anyone out there willing to publish any real, worthwhile news or the truth? Didn't think so.

  • i am gonna load my shot gun now and go after birtha and dobbs-

  • F**King paid retards!

    I miss real news good luck Lou...

  • wow ur a fag

  • Whether this is true or not, Obama will be a one term president.

    He is a Joke

  • Why not wear your Obama is president and I haven't stop bitching since t-shirt?

  • Dobbs has beat the immigration issue to death and now has nothing else better to do.

    His show should have been canceled long ago.

  • Lou Dobbs is the Democratic version of Rush Limbaugh. They should both be taken out and shot for all of the hate and misinformation they spread.

  • People want DObbs off the air because he is the only one who speaks against the NWO and the North AMerican Union.

  • dude most brith certificates are not that long. mines is not.

  • You would think,,,that once Bill O & Ann Coulter says he is an American citizen,,,the rest of their conservative sheep would get back in the flock!

  • yeah jesus these ppl have to be crazy if o'reilly pushes them away

  • President Obama, please end this controversy by releasing your original long form birth certificate.

  • He did! So crawl back into the toilet-bowl you popped out of, close the lid and FLUSH!

  • Releasing his long form birth certificate will accomplish NOTHING.

    The "Birthers" will say its' fake and make endless claims of cover-up. You just can't convince these people of the truth that Barrack Obama is a U.S. citizen.

  • True, they claim they haven't seen proof because deep down they don't want to.

  • P.S to all those on the warpath against Lou Dobbs, Barack Obama is not the second coming of the Messiah like so many people seem to liken him to. A black man being persecuted by Whitey all the time.How dare a white man like Dobbs upset our perfect black nominee.

  • I think Dobbs has the right to ask the question.People should know politicians are not honest .I guess From now on Dobbs shouldnt question these liar politicians for fear of getting labelled a racist and hate mongerer. I voted for Obama but he isnt untouchable.

  • fuck mm

  • try again. Ask yourself,why has the liberal media made this into a big deal? it was no big deal as some have asked this for the last two years. I had no questions about it till the media started jumping all over folks,calling them every name in the book to discredit them. WHY??? Why is Obama spending millions to not show it in court.Berg in pa., a lawyer former head of the dem party in pa.,i believe 36 years as a lawyer has a case before the suprem court about Obama,oral arguements sept or oct.

  • Why does you tube delete your comments before posting them. everytime i type somthing about Obama they delete it

  • Dobbs is an idiot. However, Fix News is jealous because he's not come over like that moron Beck. Give Dobbs time..I have a feeling he will be on Fix News soon.

  • Every fuckin time you question the Prez seems like they label you as a rascist...sad bunch ....maybe its a good thing that "N" word was invented. ...thw far left would have nothing to bitch about....is this how its goin to be for 4 yrs? Ppl afraid to critise Obama for fear of being labelled a racist

  • racist

  • Kudos to you for putting this clip up.

    wow. He's selling his soul for ratings?

  • Old Lou should get a rocking chair and a blanket and sit quietly somewhere!

    When O'Reilly starts to sound more reasonable than you - you know it is time to give it away!!

    nice job Media Matters!

    5 stars from TheJapanChannel !

    Check out our channel too if you have time!

  • OK The birth certificate is a mute point, That isn't the real story here its the commentators assertion this relates to race. What that assertion does is try to shunt any discussion of the issue, right or wrong we always have the right to ask the question. Free people always have the right to ask the question, even if you or anyone else disagrees.

  • That doesn't mean the question has any merit. When the subject of discussion is absurd, and obviously so, people start to wonder what the motivation is.

  • ok even if the the question is without merit, we can still ask it right? My point was the first thing the progressive do is label Dobs a raciest. Dobs is married to a Mexican, he not in the KKK. I have always thought he was a little left leaning. His motivation I believe is that he want to see the birth certificate. The long form, the one you get from the hospital. The legit one, I'm just saying. I know we will never see that one, because it doesn't exist, it got burnt up in a fire, right.

  • Why does Obama have to constantly prove he's an American? people are fed up and dismissive over this "Birther movement" because it isn't the first time Obama's legitimacy has been questioned. The flag pin ,his wife's state about really being proud of her country and his middle name . Subliminally People with brown skin aren't considered real Americans in the eyes of certain people and you see evidence of that mentality today.

  • I have to keep saying this. Just because you want it to be about race because that is untouchable, doesn't make it right! The reason I don't like him is because he is a communist. I don't see anything mentality what ever that means. All the arguments I get on these blogs from the progressive crowd are weak, well not yours you rock and are very well informed and now I see how wrong I am. live free

  • I think Dobbs disagrees with Obama's policies deeply. I also think that this has caused him to be overly suspicious of everything the president does. If someone thinks he's socialist, fine. I disagree, but I can respect the validity of your argument. It just seems like he is grasping for straws on this one. Attack the man on policy all you want, but as a journalist, i think Dobbs cheapens himself by pursuing this. The state of Hawaii, and it's Republican Gov. says he was born there. Let it go.

  • For Christ's sakes Dobbs, slap some toothpaste onto those yellow choppers of yours!!!

  • The left are getting a 2fer here because A) they put on a full court press to get Dobbs to look extreme, when in truth if Obama wanted this to be over he'd show it. and B) Dobbs is pretty much the only voice on the air today talking the straight dope about illegal immigration.

    Big leftist takeover, putting down the bill of rights.

  • The whole matter turns on whether he is a NATURAL born citizen as mandated by the constitution to qualify to be president.

    I'm a Canadian and I understand your founding documents better than you do!!!!

    It's not like you're using them though. Can we have them please??

    And the racists are the ones who cant stop bringing up race.

  • Comment removed

  • whatnowgop, i hope somone is paying you to spend soooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much time ranting endlessly on this issue.

    it's ABSURD that anyone is trying to make an issue out of Obama's birth certificate. and it is equally ABSURD for anyone to spend more than 30 seconds responding to it. get a life!

    geeeeeeez!!!

  • Comment removed

  • It must SUCK to walk around thinking that ANYTHING negative that happens to you is because of your race and that everyone hates you because of your race.

    I'm a black guy who is fortunate not be CONSUMED by race! Thank God!!!!

  • What to do about the birthers? Nothing. Let's sit back and laugh at these dimwits as they further destroy the GOP's credibility.

  • If a mother passes citizenship to their kids. How come all the illeagal mexicans give birth to Americans and not mexicans

  • George B was born in Mexico on a vacation....and this is the issue lol

  • If Obama didn't meet the requirements to be POTUS, why didn't the RNC, McCain's campaign, or Hillary use it to knock Obama out of contention? Why would the chief justice of the US Supreme Court have issued the oath of office to Obama (and not just once, but twice)? And just who thought to "plant" those birth announcements in the Hawaiian newspapers back in 1961? And why would Republican officials in Hawaii lie about Obama's birth certificate which states he was born there?

  • This is the most absurd crap, it has nothing to do with race. I guess if you say that, it makes it so. Play to your pundits, I guess. The greatest nation that has ever graced the face of the earth is about to fall, without a shot fired.

  • Agreed. So what are we going to do about it?

  • If you know others and know yourself, the rest will take care of itself. I was despairing when I wrote that. I see freedom loving people all over this nation mobilizing to have their voices heard. What I see in this blog is actually encouraging because if we are faced with rabble who's only thought is what was told to them last, well no problem. The commentator says this is racial so these hip do good'ers parrot his thoughts like mindless drones not an original thought among them, no problem.

  • How about his academic performance at Harvard? Got any bona fide documentation on that?

  • And he throws a baseball like a 9 year old Indonesian girl.

  • He was the editor of The Harvard Law Review but not a single scholarly writing from that era that he authored exists. That alone is astounding!

  • There is absolutely nothing astounding about the fact that the editor in chief (not just editor) of a law review did not write his own note. You are objectively and factually wrong.

  • Give one example of a scholarly writing from Obama's Harvard days please...

  • Obama was a research assistant to Laurence Tribe on "The Curvature of Constitutional Space," an article applying physics to constitutional law.

    Again, it's not at all unusual for a Harvard Law review president to not write their own note.

    Obama graduated magna cum laude from Harvard law.

  • lol, guess I shut you up with that.

  • Well he wasn't planning on getting a PhD, u dumbass. Le'mme see you get in a community college, never mind Harvard or a scholarly write-up.

  • Like you would know one if you seen it.

  • Hey, let it keep going. Pres. Obama should continue to do nothing and just let the repubs. continue to make jackasses of themselves!

  • Orley Taitz submitted the Kenyan birth certificate to the 9th Circuit Court for forensic document examination and subsequent authentication.

    Obama submitted his COLB Certificate to FatChick for examination and to be authenticated by Mickey Mouse!

  • She submitted a blatant forgery to the court. She should have taken the time to do a cursory investigation before making a court pleading. You know, check whether or not the Republic of Kenya existed on the date of the purported document, whether E.F. Lavender was a real person instead of a detergent brand in Kenya, etc.

  • Time proves all cases.

  • Heh, you don't care if this thing is actually true or not, all that matters to you is that it supports your agenda.

  • Well, I would like to force Obama to show some bona fide documentation. One thing is absolutely certain about Obama, his back ground is by far much more murkier then any other President. I mean, what are historians going to write about him? Is his own autobiography going to be their only source? Why is the specific birthplace of the 44th President an official state secret? There are just too many unanswered questions about Obama's most murky background and quite frankly he looks like a con man.

  • He put his birth certificate on the internet. You falsely choose to believe that it's not a birth certificate.

  • It isn't a birth certificate and now I know you're not a lawyer.

  • It's a certified copy of the birth certificate, and all the information on it is taken directly and exactly from the original. For all legal purposes, it is a birth certificate.

    You believe what you want to believe. I won't stop you.

  • Take that up with the Republican run state of Hawaii because that is the birth certificate that the state issues. They went paperless in 2001. All records are on computers. A certicicate of live birth is deemed a legal "BIRTH CERTIFICATE".

  • "he looks like a con man"

    And there we get to the crux of the matter. You just don't like Obama, and therefore every rumor, every bad thing you read about him simply must be true. Doesn't matter if it's a blatant forgery or a radical redefinition of settled constitutional law, we just need to get him out someway or another. After all, he's trying to con us!

  • No, he used multiple aliases as con men do and that is pretty well established. Barry Dunham, Barry Soetoro, Barack Hussein Obama and any combination thereof. Con men also have no verifiable background like Obama. We are constantly told how smart he is with his ivy league education however all of his college & university records are off limits. Why can't he release some bona-fide documentation? What's the big deal? Why do we have to just settle for taking his word on everything?

  • You're using the fact that his mother married a couple of times and that he used a nickname as a child against him? Calling them aliases? You're paranoid.

  • Is Barry Soetoro his legal name or was it an alias?

  • explain to me how is this racist? They think its racist because he is black.

  • Fire Lou Dobb, I always knew he was a douchbag from the very beginning

  • this is right wing conspiracy

  • Media is covering their own ass They know if it's true that Obama wasn't born here They would lose their credibility.

  • Since the media is more than eighty percent Republican Conservative owned that makes a lot of sense.

  • Breaking - 2 August (excerpt)

    California attorney Orly Taitz, who has filed a number of lawsuits demanding proof of Barack Obama's eligibility to serve as president, has released a copy of what purports to be a Kenyan certification of birth and has filed a new motion in U.S. District Court for its authentication.

    WND was able to obtain other birth certificates from Kenya for purposes of comparison, and the form of the documents appear to be identical. Developing . . .

  • Not about hate or fear mongering~!

  • Speaking of wacky conspiracy theories, Rev. Jeremiah Wright believes the government created the AIDS virus as a "means of genocide against people of color."

  • actually that's true. duh

  • WTF, FOX is being sane and responsible and a guy at CNN is being nuts and biased? Against a LIBERAL?! It's official, the world has entered the End of Days.

  • maybe fox is always accurate?

  • When COULTER calls you a COOK...You've gone to far.

  • F#ck You Lou!

  • The title of this vid bothers me,...........media should never be the final arbitrator for anything, after all the wars the media has sold us It's hard to beleive anything they say

    Oh it's now raicst to question the president, geez, this video is creepy is so many ways

  • Exactly, Shiek. The media that lied us into the War on Iraq is irrelevant. They have much innocent blood on their hands and it's obvious they want the US mechanized murder of peasants to continue.

    It is extremely racist of Obama's apologists to suggest that he should not be accountable because he is half Negro.

  • It is funny every other station is talking about it too, through the Lou Dobbs story.

  • I feel Obama was born in USA and this is just a small issue to get distracted over more important problems.

    I'm sure people even believe Obama is a muslim, like it's a bad thing. I've met some very nice people who were muslim. Benjamin Franklin didn't even believe in religion and he was one of the founding fathers of the USA. I feel he could of been president, but he did more not being president.

  • this is a non-issue and Media Matter is exploiting this s an ad campaign

    The least you folks could have done was pick a better, a more worthy subject that would benefit the American People

    What you've turned into is just another hack LCD Tabloid, no better than the people you're attacking

  • what a shame - you people could have actually been a an asset to the country

  • Someone must be getting very upset to sick the media machine on the birthers and one minor news man. Dobbs must be hitting a raw nerve.

  • not to much to ask... obama could disprove the credit of dobbs....+ its a good chance to test the so called true american democracy

  • You can keep smearing us, call us idiots, call us the lunatic fringe, say we are all alone, call us racist, smear us with whatever you feel is necessary. The only thing we ask is for the President to release a long form birth certificate. What's the big deal?

  • The state of Hawaii under a Republican administration has verified his birth certificate. Hawaii does not issue a long form any longer and went paperless in 2001. If you requested a copy you would not get the long form. The birthers are nothing more than nut cases. They are dragging down the Republican party which is fine by me.

  • There is a procedure in place in Hawaii right now that allows for the release of a long form birth certificate. They didn't destroy the records when they went paperless, they are on file. Why can't we see that mutha fucker? What's the need for the secretiveness? Why is the specific birthplace and attending physician of the 44th President an official state secret? Got any guesses? I'm all ears. The only excuse I can think of is that he either wasn't born in Hawaii or he is a bastard.

  • Why is asking a simple question "dragging down the party"?

  • Why are many in the GOP trying to distance themselves from these nut cases? Then they pass a resolution recognizing Obama as being born in Hawaii without one nay vote. They are playing the kooks for what it's worth but don't want to take any credit for them except for a couple of them like Michelle Bachman. She almost lost the election in MN last time. The next time she will be gone.

  • Comment removed

  • hear or here, idiot. BTW, I left the GOP last year after the way they behaved and pushed the muslim connection and terrorist link and I can tell you that it is the GOP that is pushing this. They may not have started it, but with little to offer as a counter to the Democrats they have fallen back to using this tactic as it plays on their on elitist mentality of who should be running the country.

  • Then you are a fool. The Democrats only have socialism and bigger government to offer. This is not change or new.  It is the same old stuff recycled from before.

    The Republicans have lots of new and better ideas that will actually work, The Democrats are interested in making things better, just worse. The more of crisis, the more they can convince you to support them.

  • It;s funny that you call me a fool when your statements are some of the most foolish and absurd statements I have ever read. They read like talking points from Sean Hannity and Limbaugh. if the Gop had "lots of news and better Ideas" than they would have maintained the congressional majority, retained the White House, and would still have me as a loyal Republican voter. And speaking of recycled old stuff, the GOP tried massive tax cuts for the rich and we're still paying the price for.

  • You are fool. Tax cuts work every single time they are used. "Tax cuts for the rich" is a Democrat talking point. Tax cuts went to those who paid taxes.

    Republicans made a number of mistakes. However they were nothing compared to the Democrats.

  • Tax cuts work only if you can make budget cuts at the same time, which is what Reagan failed to do and was his biggest failure by his own admission. That failure lead to George HW Bush to break his promise of no new taxes and ultimately cost him the election. Second, those talking points were points that George W. Bush admitted to when discussing further tax cuts in his first administration as according to Sec. O'Neil. And as fo mistakes, can anybody recall the Iraq war and war on terror?

  • The tax cuts work in raising revenue. But you are right about the budgets being done as well. However Reagan wanted to cut the budget, but the Democrats in Congress would not let him. Remember they said his budgets were "DOA" - dead on arrival.

    Neither the war was a mistake. Every war has it share of mistakes. The strategically both were absolutely necessary.

  • But StinkingHombre, when people call you bigoted they're telling the truth!

    The big deal is that Obama produced a certified copy of his birth certificate that meets any legal burden, and is backed by multiple newspaper announcements.

  • That COLB certificate was available to foreign born children and children born outside of hospitals. All it took to get one of them in 1961 was the assertion of one parent. A child born in the South Pole could have acquired one, it doesn't prove where he was born. We would like to see a proper birth certificate, what's the big deal? Orley Taitz has filed what she says is a Kenyan birth certificate issued for Obama in the 9th Circuit Federal Court, stay tuned! Somebody might be exposed soon!

  • The COLB is generated from what the original form says. If the COLB says Obama was born in Honolulu, any original will also say Obama was born in Honolulu. The COLB is proof; it's prima facie evidence.

    But as for Ms. Taitz's latest thing, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that Ms. "travel ban to Pakistan" Taitz still has credibility with you guys.

    Protip: that doc claims to be from the "Republic of Kenya," but is dated months before the republic was formed.

  • That's not what I am getting from the experts therefore it's up to the lawyers to hammer it out. You and I are not lawyers, let the experts handle it.

  • You may not be a lawyer, but you don't know who I am or what I do, so speak for yourself.

  • What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

    You're a lawyer????

    Sure you are!

  • You can choose to believe me or not, but I'm not revealing personal information over YouTube comment, and you don't know who I am or what I do.

    The doc is a blatant forgery and for submitting that to the court alone, Taitz should be sanctioned and disbarred.

  • Yea ok Qwerty - You're as murky as your messiah is then.

  • When did news reporters start mixing in their personal interpretations with neutral observations? When did opinions become part of what we call news?

  • Why is the media attacking people who are asking simply to see the original long form birth certificate of the President? Why must they resort to charges of racism in order to silence those like Lou Dobbs who are asking a simple question?

    There must something embarrassing contained in the birth certificate that the media and the President must not want to get out.

  • kind of the opposite. They re attacking those people because the facts are easily available, and for LOU DOBBS to still not be certain of the certificate of live birth is real or not, how bout this Lou, how bout you do some investigating and put this issue to rest once and for all. YOU know, like a newsman does? WHy is he pretending that he cant' go to hawaii and go to the dept of health and do the investigation? Oh yeah, cuz that would prove him to be a U.S. citizen.

  • Not true. On January 21st, 2009, his very first day in office, Barack Obama signed Executive Order 13489 sealing all birth and school records. No transparency there, or anywhere else in this administration.

  • This is a lie. I read it and it says no such thing.

  • Oh, so the news media decided to do its job somewhere after jan 21st? How convenient!!!!

    I only wish we had a news media in the united states before jan 21st of this year.

    How crafty of obama to somehow know that the news media would not do any investigating until it was too late.

    You are pathetic.

  • Yep, we just discovered that someone had a time machine hidden and went back and placed newspaper ads announcing Obamas birth in two Hawaiian newspaper thinking that one day they could install a Kenyan as the President of the US. If little green men with big heads and almond eyes knock on your door, don't open it. They are coming to get you.

  • Why couldn't his mother have put those announcements in the paper even if he wasn't born in the U.S.? Wouldn't she have wanted her son to seem to be an American citizen since that classification bestows rights and privileges?Calling people who disagree with you crazy is the easiest way to win an argument but not the soundest.Many people who were called crazy in the past were eventually proven right and the minority CAN be correct.

  • Because at the time the birth announcements came from hospitals that the newspapers collected each day. If you bothered to look into something other than the nut case birther compspiracies you might have know that. His mother was American so he already had the right to American citizenship. The question was "natural born citizen". Which by the way natural born citizen has never been defined by Congress.

  • There was no reason for her to post birth of Obama in order to obtain priveledges like you say since he was automatically a citizen. There are four ways to become a citizen. Birth in the Unites States or its territories (what some consider, but not defined as "natural born"). Birth to a U.S. citizen parent(s). Which is called "acquisition" of citizenship. Naturalization obtained after application and exam or naturalization of one's parents called "derivation of citizenship.

  • If he was born outside of the U.S. and his mother was only 18 yrs. old at the time she could not confer citizenship upon him.A naturalized citizen cannot become president.Even if Hawaii has now gone paperless they must have a microfiche record of his original long form certificate.Why not make that public and put this thing to rest?Why are all of Obama's other documents including his dissertations covered up?Do you really have to be loony or racist to want to know who your president really is?

  • Hawaii went paperless in 2001. The only certificate they issue is the short form. All the information from the long form was entered into computers. This is a legal official birth certificate. The state of Hawaii has verified it. Just because you birthers can't except that doesn't mean anything. He was born in Hawaii not outside the US.
