To Retire Issie in Hawaii
Your comments and research are ludicrous. Don't you thing that the entire Government establishment and the GOP would have researched the legitimacy of Senator Obamas birth. By the way where were you born? Mars ? Your intellect and idiological methodologies are ridiculous. If you don't like a candidate just say so, don't muddy the water with bigotry or hatred disguised as genuine concern.
This country is for any and everybody. Somehow many white and someforeign born immigrants like yourself don't think that an African American has a place in prominence in American Government. As you will see come late Tuesday night or Wednesday morning that the American people have truly stepped beyond its past ignorance, and bigotry deamons of the past.

PS For that matter very few people in the United States are pure-bred anything. Most everybody here is a mix of different nationalities and races. Which is what makes this nation great.
Dear Retired in Colorado
You certaily did not look very hard, because I went to factcheck.org and they have proof of Obama's birth - they have seen and felt and touched his birth certificate and they certify that it is legit. Factcheck.org is a non-partisian group and is considered by everyone to be a trusted source for information. If you don't like Obama, please just say it, but please don't spread false rumors that he is not a natural born citizen, because he is. Trying to call someone that worked in a hospital in 1961 to verify a birth is not near as reliable as his birth certificate is, hence the reason why we have birth certificates in the first place. After Obama wins the election I certaily hope that the Republicans can put their "nastiness" behind them and join in with the rest of us to make this country great once again as we as a nation have a lot of work to do and this pettiness will not do anyone any good.
Sick of Purging registered voters
I can't stand that fact that the GOP and their supporters are all up in a tiss about ACORN and linking it to Obama. When it was really just workers with poor work ethic trying to get by. I mean is the 2 something thousand illegally registered voters really going to show up with a phony ID that said Micky Mouse on it? Please think logically for a second GOP supporters.
Now on the other hand there has been republican secretary of treasures, ei Colorado's Florida's just to name a few, that are trying to revoke the right to vote if you are a Democrat and have a past address down or left a middle initial out. Check it out its called HAVA which was of course created by Republicans and stands for Help America Vote Association. Really it should me Help republican's steal any election they want.
To the first comment...Please you don't have to be a private investigator I think the Government will do a great job looking to make sure he is a native born American...why...because there is only 2(two) requirements to be president 35 or older and native born. Here is your evidence Mr. ignorant http://fightthesmears.com/articles/5/birthcertificate?source=source=sem-pm-fts-bc-search-us&gclid=CLPVqq-N0pYCFQv7agodL04s4A
