Donald is suffering from the Sara Palin syndrome of needing to be seen on air.

maybe now comes the time for Trump to focus on important issues...

What would be the difference anyway? Obama was born to an American mother, no matter if he was born on Pluto or in Iowa, he would still have his American citizenship, so the whole discussion is pointless.

Gotta love Fark.

Frankly, I'm not even sure if the goalposts have moved, after perusing most "birther" websites. They're inclined to think the Obama long form birth certificate is a Photoshopped fake or some sort of after the fact mockup at this point.

Most conspiracy theorists aren't interested in contrary evidence. Like the old X-Files movie tagline, it really comes down to I WANT to believe (or not believe). Facts don't enter into it.

I'm always fascinated by the concept that if you show them a real conspiracy, proven beyond any doubt, they immediately lose interest.

I have to disagree, but for a different reason than the others. I've been seeing the same crap for years now. The loudest criers from either side will use any slightest excuse to trash anyone from the other side. Yes, there is racism involved, but it's a lot more than that. If the only difference was that he was white they'd still be all over it, just on the off chance that something might stick.

The more I observe politics and political discussions the more convinced I become that pretty much anyone who politicizes any issue is a narrow-and-shallow-minded child looking for attention.

I sincerely hope it doesn't go as far as with Palin. I'm not too keen to see the newest from Private- Donald Hump: Washington DP *Shivers*
