In what way is the request for Obama's birth certificate connected with race?

[singledad0f3]

Lou Dobbs for the win!

Obama birth certificate FAIL!

Who was the reporter that reported that TWA 800 was shot down in the early days of the internet? That was a lesson about getting "news" from internet sources that Dobbs should have learned. He was once respected. Sadly, he will be remembered for the way his career ended. He became a conspiracy freak and a crank, an embarrassment to CNN.

@christianpatriot125 ... It's admirable that you see McCain and Obama as being equally "American-looking," but most people don't. Seventy percent of Americans are white. With that in mind, most people would consider McCain to be more "American-looking" than Obama.

@emantabrizi

As far as I'm concerned McCain doesn't look any more American than does Obama.

Are you some sort of WASP who thinks that only White Anglo-Saxon Protestants can be regarded as REALLY American?

There was enough controversy about McCain's Panamanian birth for him to have seek & get a Congressional declaration that he was a Natural Born US citizen. He was only one of many candidates at the time, so perhaps you didn't notice.

@christianpatriot125 ... LOL, of course, John McCain looks American. He's an old, white man who, a lot of people believe, was born within the borders of the United States. That's why the "Birthers" never mentioned McCain during the 2008 campaign. There was no controversy there.

@emantabrizi

Does John McCain look American? There would have been just as much fuss had he won the election as there has been over Obama because John McCain is definitely not a Natural Born Citizen, regardless of Congressional claims.

The law giving Natural Born Status to those born in his circumstances was passed after his birth. Therefore he was not a Natural Born Citizen at the time of his birth.

The attention is on Obama because he's in office, rather than the Panamanian McCain.

@christianpatriot125 ... I don't know if they hid any of their records. I DO know that no one ever made a fuss over any of those Presidents' birth certificates. Most people couldn't tell you where any of them were born, but they'll tell you they're 100% confident they were born in the United States. Why? Because they LOOK American. Then, an African-American is elected to the Presidency, and suddenly, it's a legitimate question? LOL, give me a break. It's racism...pure and simple.

@emantabrizi

I would be interested to know of any birth or education records you believe the men you've mentioned hid.

I guess that would make you a conspiracy theorist.

It's interesting that you seem to find an enquiring mind to be a negative quality. Do you believe everything government tells you?

So the Christians lit the great fire of Rome, the jews were behind the Reichstag fire, the USA is not at war in Libya etc.

[emantabrizi]

@christianpatriot125 ... You really believe that? You think they were all open and honest, but Obama is the one deceiving us? Are you a conspiracy theorist? Because, if so, I won't waste my time.

[christianpatriot125]

@emantabrizi

Would it be that unlike Obama, none of them hid their records?

[emantabrizi]

@christianpatriot125 ... Seriously? Did anyone ask for Bush's birth certificate? Did anyone ask for Clinton's birth certificate? How about Reagan's? Carter's? No? What do all those Presidents have in common that is different from Obama? Hmmm...
