Donald Trump 'Really Concerned' About Obama Birthplace (VIDEO)

Potential presidential candidate Donald Trump expressed doubt once again over the birthplace of President Barack Obama on "Fox & Friends" on Monday morning.

"I am really concerned," responded Trump when asked if he believes the president was born in the country. "You have no nurses -- this is the President of the United States -- that remember. ... He could have been born outside of this country. Why can't he produce a birth certificate?"

Last week, Trump found himself in a heated discussion during an appearance on "The View" over the debunked theory that the president was born outside the United States and therefore ineligible to serve. During a recent appearance on ABC's "Good Morning America" he said, "The reason I have a little doubt, just a little, is because he grew up and nobody knew him."

Trump said on Monday morning that he gets "a kick out of" Hawaii Governor Neil Abercrombie suggesting he can verify Obama was born in the Aloha State.

"The Governor of Hawaii says, 'I remember when he was born 50 years ago,'" Trump explained. "I doubt it. I think this guy should be investigated. I doubt it. He remembers when Obama was born? Give me a break! He's just trying to do something for his party."

Abercrombie, a Democrat, spoke out against the "birther" movement last December during an appearance on CNN. "You're not going to convince those people because they have a political agenda or they have minds that go in that kind of direction," he said. "Conspiratorial theorists are never going to be satisfied. This has gone into another area of political attack."

Here's a trumpy story:

In the casino industry, there is a saying: Don't sweat the action.

The house has the advantage.

A Japanese businessman went to play Baccarat at the Taj and won about 1.7 million dollars.

Trumpy went insane. He went to AC the next night. The "winner" came back the next night.

While the guy played, Trumpy paced back and forth in plain view, spooking the players.

The "winner" dropped all the money back AND a couple of million more.

Trump was tired and wanted to go to bed. So, he ordered the Baccarat room shut down.

Word got around that trumpy got ticked if you won at the Taj, and the gamblers stopped coming.

Brilliant!

Well Donald, I'm "really concerned" about that thing on your head, but that doesn't mean I'll be president, either.

Surely it was more economical and feasible for Obama's financially strapped and very pregnant mother to travel 3000 miles to Kenya to have a baby. What is most astounding is how she was able to erase all the required records and passports surrounding that trip. On top of that able to convince or bribe the Honolulu newspaper and/or hospital to run a phony birth announcement upon her return to a rented home in Honolulu .
The real clincher though is the clairvoyance of his mother knowing that this Bi racial baby would one day be President of the U.S. and that these precautions and deceptions would be imperative to this devious "socialist plot".

3,000 miles to Kenya?

Failed geography?

[Thisboy]

Apparently some feel that the exact distance from Kenya to Hawaii is central and/or important to the point of above blog. My apologies. The correct answer is 8,067.34 miles (12,983.09 km).

[CessnaDriverI72]

It is very important. Covering the distance from LA to NY in 1961 was a big deal.

Travel from Honolulu to Mombassa in 1961? A MONUMENTAL deal.

The distance from KHNL to HKMO is actually 10, 775 statute miles or 17, 341 kilometers.

The distance from the north pole to the south pole is 12, 430SM/20, 004KM.

Mombassa and Honolulu are nearly antipodal.

THAT is why the exact distance is important to debunking birfer lies.

Here's what the birfers actually want:

They believe that the original birf documents will say that Mr. Obama II was "born" Muslim.

They hope that the birf cert will say that Mr. Obama's name will be listed as "Barack Hussien Mohamed Obama II"

They are sure that the birf cert will say something about the baby being a British citizen.

The seminal case on citizenship is US v. Wong Kim Ark where the US government believed that chinese babies were born with allegiance to the Emperor of China, because of some kind of China Emperor super mojo.

We are seeing the same thing here with the birfers.

The birfers never answer this question: If you won't accept absolute proof, why should someone believe that you will accept other absolute proof?

Another question that the birfers never answer: If St. Ronald's birth certificate was issued when he was 32 on the attestation of his brother who was 3 years old at the time of the birth, why do you question Mr. Obama's citizenship and not St. Ronnies?

Perhaps the answer is right there on Mr. Obama's face.....

That's great. But.no one has ever been able to explain to me why an official state birth certificate is not sufficient in itself for our president to prove to the birthers that he was born in Hawaii?

[CessnaDriverI72]

09:27 PM on 03/29/2011

Nutshell: They are hoping that there is something on the "original" BC that says he's a muslin.

You would also think that there would be some paper trails and passports proving that Obama's mother had visited Kenya at this time and then returned after the birth. Upon returning she decides to bribe the Honolulu Newspaper or hospital to run a phoney birth anouncement all in preparation for the imminent rise and likely election of a bi-racial man as President of the U.S in fifty years. Uh huh.

Someone in a posting mentioned Obama attending college on a foreign student scholarship; when looking at factcheck, I found one of their archived answers which addresses this issue. Here's the link:

http://factcheck.org/2009/05/was-obama-born-in-the-usa/

I would also like to suggest that before posting something you believe as fact, you may want to do a bit of research on your own. Factcheck.org is a nonpartisan group. I would refer Mr. Trump to this site as well, as it seems he needs to educate himself a bit more before he begins his run for President.

If you check trumpie's past, he seldom actually does any homework.

Spy Magazine did an expose on trumpie back in the 80's. He would get banks to give him loans by sending over press clippings rather than financial statements.

[Jakesmom]

Sounds like the banks didn't do their homework either! Birds of a feather.

Trump likes to pretend he is so intelligent, but this guy hid behind chaper 11 a number of times. He even managed to bankrupt a casino - a place where the house always wins.

DONALD TRUMP HAVE TO BEAT UP ON OUR PRESIDENT TO MAKE HIMSELF LOOK GOOD IN HIS RICH CRONIES CIRCLE. WHO WANTS TRUMP AS A PRESIDENT TO LEAD MILLIONS OF PEOPLE A MAN THAT STOP AT NOTHING TO SATIFY IS FLESH TO GO AS FAR AS TO TAKE A MINISTER WIFE FROM HIM. I HOPE YOU PEOPLE WAKE UP AND SEE THE RICH ONLY CARES FOR THE RICH, THY WILL NOT GIVE THE POOR AND THE MIDDLE CLASS NOTHING.

[IWantTofu]

06:33 PM on 03/29/2011

I would like to take issue with one point you make. As someone in the top 1% in income and assets, I take issue with the comment that the rich only cares for the rich. I dont care for other rich people. If I could take their money, I'd take it. And to tell you the truth, I'd feel much better than taking it from a poor person. the part about not giving my money to poor or middle class people, that part I have no argument with.

[CessnaDriverI72]

Madoff had a similar attitude.

His mistake was that he didn't find the guys who faked Ken Lay's "death" and pay for their services.

Sooo? He can be concerned about whatever he wants, that doesn't make it important or interesting. This is just a distraction created by the tea party to continue stripping union workers of their rights. I think that the actions of trump, the tea party and other conservatives are much more concerning that a piece of paper that has been shown over and over online.

With today's revelations, I'm a little concern that Trump might not be American after all...there seems to be some discrepancies in his "birth certificate".

[IWantTofu]

06:38 PM on 03/29/2011

You mean such discrepancies such as the city department of health saying that trumps birth certificate is not real?

[pa104inf]

07:30 PM on 03/29/2011

He has now issued an actual one. Think maybe Obama could do the same?

[seealaska]

07:54 AM on 03/31/2011

With his money he can pay for any birth certificates he likes..I heard he was born in Fuckingham Palace. ....and a brother of Prince Charles.
