   Strawman. You set up a strawman to knock him down.

   I do not believe BHO is ineligible to be president. I believe that it is up to each candidate to prove that they at least meet the minimum requirements set by the U S Constitution. The way John McCain was required to do. And did.

   Why so much secrecy from “the most transparant administration ever?”

   Why has BHO had all his records sealed, not just his birth certificate?

   Why has BHO spent over a million dollars to keep his long form birth certificate sealed?

   … um, so why, exactly, do you need to see his birth certificate?

   (great vid, btw!)

   sAM I am -

   John McCain showed some reporters his birth certificate. He didn’t allow pictures to be taken of it.

   Barack Obama posted his birth certificate on line AND allowed pictures to be taken of it.

   Did you know that McCain had his own lawsuit where he fought to keep his birth certificate and records sealed. Look up Robinson v Bowen, United States District Court, Northern District of California, case # C08-03836 WHA

   You know, I keep seeing amounts between $500,000 and $100 MILLION bandied around that Obama supposedly spent to “keep his records sealed”, but I never have seen any proof that such an amount was spent. What’s the evidence you have to support this claim??

   This is EXACTLY what arguing with a birther is like. To the T.
