Gallup/USA Today Poll indicates most Americans unsure whether Donald Trump was born in the U.S.
Most Americans Unsure Where Trump Was Born
by Abby Zimet
April 27, 2011

A new (real) Gallup poll finds that only 43% of Americans believe Donald Trump was definitely born in the U.S. Other planets were not mentioned as options. "Sillliness" is understatement here.

Poll: Most unsure where Trump was born
April 27, 2011

PORTSMOUTH, N.H., April 27 (UPI) -- Most Americans are unsure whether TV star-real estate mogul-White House hopeful Donald Trump was born in the United States, a Gallup/USA Today poll indicated.

Forty-three percent say they believe Trump was definitely born in the United States. Another 20 percent say they think he probably was, the poll said.

Seven percent say Trump was probably or definitely born in another country, while 30 percent say they don't know enough to say.

Only 43% are certain Trump was born in the United States. Why has Trump refused to release his original birth certificate? I haven't seen it. And what's that thing on the top of his head? BBI

1. I'm not sure that he was born at all.
So where was he hatched? Most likely some snakepit.

2. HE may have been born here but that hair
should definitely be classified as a foreign object.

If that thing flew off in a breeze it would be identified as a UFO. Jets would be scrambling and shit.

13. Thanks...
Not from Phoenix... It's my gamer tag so I just transferred it here. I'm a bit older than your average gamer, my reflexes are slow so I spend a lot of time dead. Hence the Phoenix that keeps rising from the ashes..

I am in Colorado though... close :)

5. Trump born in New York City says Wikipedia - isn't that where the U.N. is?
Edited on Wed Apr-27-11 12:54 PM by kenny blankenship
I don't know how someone born in the capital city of the U.N. can put himself forward as eligible to be President of the United States of America. He's just lucky we let him stay here!


Also, let's not forget that keeping wildlife, an amphibious primate, for uh, domestic, you know, within the city - that aint legal either.
