Birther FAIL
Image via Wikipedia
Do all birthers believe President Obama was born in Kenya? Well, maybe a few believe this:
According to Public Policy Polling (PPP), a North Carolina polling firm, only 24% of self-identified Republican voters in the state believe Barack Obama was born in the United States. 47% do not believe that Obama is American born, and 29% of Republicans aren’t sure.
One part of PPP’s data might reassure sentient readers somewhat: 7% of those who voted for John McCain do not believe Hawaii to be a part of the United States. Now perhaps this is just another irrational expression of Obama hatred. But, it may also be older voters who never quite absorbed the news that our 50th state is indeed our 50th state.
Got that? Maybe Obama wasn’t born in America because Hawaii isn’t part of America. That would explain a couple percentage points worth of the birther movement. Now, what about the rest of them?

Were the the statistics of those that voted for Obama looked at? It is impossible to consider the statistics presented without knowing how they might compare with those that voted for other candidates.
So I should believe that spending over one and a half million dollars to hide ones records is normal, come on people get real.
I’m not thru yet. I do believe that maybe Obama was born in the USA but this was in 1961 and in 1961 things were different. Most of you reading this are not old enough to realize how things were in 1961. In 1961 a nice young white girl did not walk down the street with a black man. If a good family from Kansas moved to Hawaii and their teenage daughter got knocked up by a black man it would be shame shame shame. They would certainly not advertise the fact that they were grandparents of a half white half black grandson. Could it be that things like this and other things is the reason Obama is hiding his records. So don’t just say I’m just a racist for saying this, but this was the way our country was in 1961.
In response to another comment. See in context »Ryan, the only FACT you need to know: obama hides his birth certificate
