@Cap1tal15m The president did prove his citizenship when he was running for president with a birth certificate just like every other candidate did. But a group of nutcases decided they didn't think that was good enough and began asking for the "long form" certificate. That's what the president took longer to release. Why should he have to start providing additional documentation to every conspiracy theorist out there? Nothing would ever be enough for them.

If it's any consolation, President Obama laid this issue to rest right before the capture of Osama bin Laden. which made "the Donald" look like a damn fool in the end...kharma is a bitch ;)

i love what this guy had to say. the sad truth is that the birther thing was just a dog whistle. they were really saying that african americans are not real americans. in there minds the only true american is a white person. i guess you don't think we can see threw your bullshit.......

@nld1960 It's kind of interesting that we're having this discussion but at the same time we're on the same page haha

I know EXACTLY what you mean! i am currently a sociology major and everything you just said has been inscribed in my brain for the last 2 years. This is all true what you say but you should also understand that as long as we are constantly reminded via media and social networks that color and class exists we are therefore still being oppressed and made to believe everything we see

Obama isn't a nigger, he is a mulatto. And he is also house negro of the jews. Funny, that more backs hate jews then whites now, lol.

@Pretz77 I don't know what an all-weather illiberal is.Sounds bad!

No, there is nothing wrong as to knowing about our different ethnicity.When will we finally figure out there is only ONE race,the human race.Some of the great things Martin King said would be considered racist today.He said he wishes for a time when his children will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.

Job applications ask for "race".Why?Preferential reasons.

@nld1960@Words of an obvious all-weather illiberal.you make us(African Americans) sound as though we don't want peace and appear to want to linger in the past.The history of the United States is embedded in our everyday actions.Theres nothing racist about knowing your own history and acknowledging it.Although some of us can be ignorant and show anger you have to understand where it stems from as well and also not stereotype us all.Everyday the past constantly reflects our present through society

[nld1960]

You people have to get over this slave thing.The white people of today have nothing to do with it.Most,like me are immigrants from other countries.African blacks sold their people to be slaves.That's even worse.You people are not victims anymore,but are victorious and need to act as such.But you will not rest until you take it our on the white people and hang them from trees.When I see the rage,anger,just look at you!you are the racist,but that is accepted.What is it you want?I just want peace.

[nld1960]

Within two hours of producing his long form, it was found to be a fake.He was never vetted as a State Senator or US Senator nor as the president of the US,while they put McCain through the ringer because he was born in Panama.Why is that.In the beginning Pres.Obama after many request finally came up with that short form.You can't even get a driver's license with that.Then it was found to be a fake.He will not share any document with us,he had then sealed,it cost him over $1.5mil.Why,tell me

Didn't Malcom X's own people kill him?

As a white person and supporter of President Obama, I am moved by what you say, and I am sad for the country. Still, Obama was recognized by a majority of voters (and by many others besides) as a brilliant, charismatic, loving, elegant man, an American absolutely worthy of being president—and then some. If others are expressing their fear by going berserk, they are humiliating themselves. The president's dignity has not been harmed by their ridiculous behavior. It's just tragic.

Conspiracy theorists crack me up.
