i dont see anything wrong with the a presidential candidate be required to show their actual birth certificate if they are going to run.   you are required to be born in the states to be president so why shouldnt they prove it.  as far as im aware most states wont even let you get a drivers license with a certificate of live birth.   so why, if it exists,  hasnt it been produced.   the only reasons not to produce are if it doesnt exist or if you just want to play political games with the topic.  if obama didnt relish the issue then it obviously would have been produced, if it existed...

I think it's a pretty pointless requirement anyway. If you moved to the USA at the age of one month, you'll be just as American as someone whose parents moved to the USA a month before he was born.

Yeah.  I don't see why being a natural born citizen matters in this day and age.

Still, it seems like Obama intentionally has gone to leave the slightest room for doubt as a trap.

Since he could of done more to prove it with practically zero effort.

In the end it my hurt rather then help.

While few people believe he was born in another country... something like nearly half of America thinks it's a valid question... and the number of people from all parties who thinks he wasn't born in the US has risen.

 

When you change the question  to "Have no doubts"... less then half the country "has no doubt" he was born in the US.
