October 24, 201213 yr Look, Donald Trump is a poisonous cockatrice, but this is the most amusing thing I have seen in weeks, and is actually a stroke of political genius. He has done what Harry Reid did to Mitt Romeny on the floor of Congress without being a politician or associaitng himself with Romney, AND used a monetary negotiating tool with enough clout to get some pressure on, IMHO. At least this provides some flavor to the paltry dish this season's political intrigue has given us.
October 24, 201213 yr It's a stroke of political genious for Obama. This is the type of moron Mitt has campaigning for him.:lol:
October 25, 201213 yr Wow...what an opportunity for the President to be a leader. He is always talking about being Patriotic and helping others get there "fair shot" and opportunity. Here is his chance to put action to his own words. Release the stuff and enormously help some people that need help. If he listens to his own talk or means what he says, this should be a "no brainer" for him.
October 25, 201213 yr This is laughable. If I were Obama I'd get the people who made my fake birth certificate make some more fakes for Trump and give the charity some money. What's sad is that Donald will only donate to the charity after publicly extorting Obama. Is this what we want our presidents to do now? Give in to unnecessary public demand in the name of charity? Really?
October 25, 201213 yr The saddest thing about this is that Romney will not release his college records either and then there is that whole tax return thing. We demand transparency! :lol:

Really? Lose-lose for the President. Not turning them over makes it look like he doesn't care about whatever charity he would give to and is hiding something. Turning them over opens a MAJOR can of worms for him and future president's. He'll ignore it.

October 25, 201213 yr Here is a question I was hoping that someone would have asked and answered by the time I got on here tonight. What is Trump thinking is on his transcripts and college applications? Passport?
October 25, 201213 yr Here is a question I was hoping that someone would have asked and answered by the time I got on here tonight. What is Trump thinking is on his transcripts and college applications? Passport? Really? The possible issue is claim of foreign citizenship. This would be very problematic since you must carry yourself as an American citizen when in the United States. And you must use your US passport to enter the country even if you hold other foreign passports. And though you openly be a 'dual citizen' as a minor at the age of 18 you must then make a declaration. From that point - when in the US - you must declare yourself as a US citizen when within the borders. Most speculation is he maintained Indonesian citizenship status into the early 1980s or at least until his mother divorces Lolo Soetoro in August of 1980. The divorce lists 2 children and indicates the non-minor child (assumed to be Obama) is still in need of education assistance. Obama was an Indonesian citizen according to Indonesian law. As was his mother, though she seems to have secretly maintained her 'dual citizen' status even through Indonesia forbids this. Obama could claim British citizenship today if he wanted. He still qualifies for BOC. But since his namesake father was an anti-colonial it is unlikely he would claim his BOC.
October 25, 201213 yr So I guess the thinking is that he listed himself as foreign born to assist in getting accepted to college. So he either lied to get into college (possibly) or is lying about is eligibility to be President?
October 25, 201213 yr Wow...what an opportunity for the President to be a leader. He is always talking about being Patriotic and helping others get there "fair shot" and opportunity. Here is his chance to put action to his own words. Release the stuff and enormously help some people that need help. If he listens to his own talk or means what he says, this should be a "no brainer" for him. Then give Trump an even bigger ego and make him think he is important and has influence. Trump is in that group that no matter what he says or does it doesn't matter, they will still find excuses and never be satisfied
October 25, 201213 yr Author It's a stroke of political genious for Obama. This is the type of moron Mitt has campaigning for him.:lol: Not the spin I'd put on it, but to each his own. This doesn't hurt Obama, but it certainly doesn't help him either.
