I am still checking some things out, but my initial impression of the Obama certificate is shocking:

I believe that Obama was born in the U.S. and the birth certificate issued by the State of Hawaii is legitimate and contains accurate information.

I believe that the Obama administration took that authentic document and immediately set about to deceive the American people.

Here is what I think they did.  They took this legitimate document and deliberately scanned it in such a way that the image was distorted.  Then they used Photoshop to “correct” the errors.  The result is a document that clearly looks doctored.  An 8^th grade student running Photoshop for the first time would easily discover these manipulations.

This, of course, is red meat for the birther crowd.  They will scream lies and distortion and will ultimately be made to look like fools because; although the image posted by the White House is doctored, the document itself is very real.

If this is true, it shows a President of the United States who demonstrates complete and total disregard for the American people.  The White House is a very capable place and they could have quickly scanned this document into a PDF file and ended this.  Instead they deliberately made a genuine document look like a fake, so they could, once again, deceive and misdirect.   It probably will work brilliantly.  This is like the convict trying to get away from a blood hound.  The convict takes off a piece of clothing and tosses it over a fence.  The dog goes berserk following the false trail and the convict jogs off in a different direction.

I have never felt that it really mattered whether or not Obama was born in the U.S.  I never believed he was born in Kenya, because I don’t think his parents ever lived together as husband and wife.  Barack Obama, Sr. already had a wife and children in Kenya and there was little incentive for him to bring back another “American” wife.  There was even less incentive for Obama’s mother to travel to Kenya when she could get first class medical care at home.  If he wasn’t born in Hawaii, he was probably born in Canada.  But in any event, it wouldn’t matter because his mother was a U.S. citizen and ultimately some court would have ruled that he was a natural born U.S. citizen. 

But there are documents that could be huge problems for Obama.  He appears to have attended high school as Barry Soetoro.  He also attended Occidental College as Barry Soetoro.  Did he register as a foreign exchange student from Indonesia?  His selective service record also looks very iffy.  Perhaps Obama didn’t bother to register for the selective service, because at the time he considered himself to be an Indonesian citizen.   What is difficult is to find any aspect of Obama’s personal history that is properly documented.  There are numerous reports of him using highly questionable social security numbers.  All of those issues are far more significant than where and when he was born.  I do not know how serious these problem are, because no one competent has investigated them.

Here is what is going to happen.  The birthers will make complete fools of themselves by pointing out the flaws in the document posted by the White House (all flaws are very real) only to have the White House trot out the real deal and say:  “We just used Photoshop to make it easier to read.  Give me a break.  Now go home.”   Then this whole thing will be spun as a meaningless racist witch hunt and the main stream media will try to give Obama a permanent pass.  The first step in this process has already started with the main stream media trying to paint Donald Trump as a racist.  They know that they must destroy Donald Trump, or he will destroy Obama.

Fortunately, Donald Trump is no fool, he is no racist and he is not easy to intimidate.  I think Trump will push on and he will gain more and more support from the American people.  If someone just points out what the Obama administration did to try and deceive everyone by deliberately distorting a genuine document this will backfire big time.

The most important thing right now is to develop a national wide movement saying “go Donald go.”  We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore.  We tired of the lies, the distortions, the cover-ups, the arrogance and the incompetence.  We are even more tired of a main stream media that is either unwilling or unable to report the truth about the current occupant of the White House.  Perhaps Bill Clinton nailed it in 2008 when he said this is a big joke.  What he meant was that it should have been obvious to everyone that Barack Obama wasn’t remotely qualified to be President of the United States.  But Bill Clinton was quickly silenced with the false accusation of racism.  The Obama administration and the main stream media are using the exact same strategy to try and silence Donald Trump.  But Donald Trump is not Bill Clinton and this fight is far from over.
