We all know that's the real reason. How can we get them to admit it?

1. Sen. Sessions seems to be doing a pretty good job of that.

2. If we have to resort to the racism charge, then we've lost the debate, as it's the last resort.

3. I suppose you could ask them where Sarah Palin was born
and then ask them to prove it.

If they are able to provide an image of a birth certificate, say its fake and ask them to prove its real.

Or you could choose any of their presidential hopefuls.

If they won't believe in the authenticity of a birth certificate which was certified by the government, then there is no convincing them of anything that they don't want to believe.

4. I also don't understand why BOTH parents need to have citizenship
Have we established anywhere that President Obama's mother was a citizen of the US?

Isn't that all that matters, anyway?

6. I'll tell you why
Because when avenues to show Obama wasn't born in Hawaii failed, they went searching for another reason to decry him.

Then, after going down teh "both parents have to be citizens road" and discovering Chester Arthur's father was a citizen of Ireland when Arthur was born, they claimed he scammed America.
