[Hoot Gibson]

Hoot, the "birther" type voter is exactly why Obama will get another 4 years. Surely you don't buy into this farce? He has produced the long version of his birth certificate. He was born in America, people need to come up with something valid to vote him out. The "birther" thing has went on long enough. If conservatives don't come up with a better candidate, and quit the foolishness, you can bet your butt Obama will get 4 more years. And no, this version of the BC, even Obama couldn't get a copy of. He didn't spend one dime to keep it hid.

Do you have a reasonable explanation as to why somebody in politics would spend close to a fortune to avoid making his birth certificate public?

The last thing that I would have wanted would have been for Obama to have been found ineligible to serve after taking office. Joe Biden was a great insurance policy against impeachment and I hope that Obama has not set a precedent by putting a dimwit on the ticket.

I don't buy Obama's explanation. If this issue is a foolish distraction, they was it not a foolish distraction last week, last year, or before he paid lawyers more than $1 million to keep if from the public?

However, I am curious about Obama's school records. I would like to see if affirmative action landed him a spot at Columbia and Harvard, despite the fact that he attended very good schools in Hawaii or if Obama really was a good student deserving of an Ivy League education. Bush, Gore, and Kerry all made their transcripts and college entrance scores public during their presidential campaigns. Why has Mr. Transparency not done the same?
