I would just like it to be decided by days end, which theory (the forgery theory, the adoption theory, the maternal age theory, the never born at all theory etc.) is going to prove me absolutely right in condemning the president’s actions (of releasing that document) this morning. Holding the highest office in the land demands guts 24/7/31/12 x4!
Too funny. Maybe a poll is necessary. I predict the Forgery Theory. It fits the mold. I have not heard the never born at all theory. So this is all a grand illusion. His real name is Mandrake Obama! Your probably too young to get that reference. The President’s intestinal fortitude or lack thereof is for another thread.
Just thought I’d throw that one into the mix after all it seems anyone is allowed to dream up a reason Obama’s not American and that reason must be respected (not just about the right to hold any old opinion but to have that opinion given real weight and serious consideration)
Is that Mandrake as in the the magician? And how would you guess my age group; don’t you need a long form birth certificate for that?
Let’s just say most of us on this board are old enough to know better about a lot of stuff we indulge in regardless.Ok. Did a spit take on that one. Funniest comment of the day thus far. Kuddos. I have many thoughts on the first part of your post but will refrain from commenting for fear of being characterized as uncharitable. As I said earlier, I find this thread and topic very amusing.Is that Mandrake as in the the magician? And how would you guess my age group; don’t you need a long form birth certificate for that?
As to the “not a real person” theory, you know, holograms are getting better and better these days…
I hadn’t considered halograms. So, he’s really Princess Lea Obama!!
I work with graphic arts. I can honestly say that this document is more than likely real. I will also say that there has been some attempts to make the document more readable after scanning. I have done this in photoshop myself for documents I’ve scanned. For example, I might adjust levels to make the document more true to black and white in order to make the letters stand out. Certain portions of the document might not have scanned as dark, and I might isolate that section into another layer to adjust the levels and other image adjustments. I might also then remove the background in order to get a pure white… especially if the background had too many patchy gray areas. That would necessitate me placing the text into a separate layer.
Assuming the document is genuine, no. He was born in America to and American mother. He is a natural born American citizen.
Okay. I agree, Wikipedia is not a good source. That is why I looked further. The source below, the hospital webpage, is a much better source. See excerpt below, with the most relevant info bolded.
And your point is?
Your president. Elected in 2008. Don’t like it, you can leave.
Okay, I think I am getting all the names straight.
Different topic for a different thread. I wouldn’t raise a buttcheek for Lincoln, let alone a glass. I am not a white supremist and I have no intention of going anywhere. Yes, he is my President, and I am going to work as hard as I can to make sure that he is no longer my President in 2 years.Your president. Elected in 2008. Don’t like it, you can leave.
My cousins — the white power racists in the south – say just cuz (racist slur for African American) has a birth certificate, don’t mean a (racist slur for African American) can rule over white people. I hope you don’t agree.
Let’s raise a glass to Lincoln and the Union who freed the US from slavery.
Wow.Your president. Elected in 2008. Don’t like it, you can leave.
