What is Barack Obama hiding?
I’ve made myself very clear during this election. I’m voting for Barack Obama. I like the man, what he stands for, how he approaches issues, the world and people. But in all fairness I have to present this video I came across today. It’s a video that questions the veracity of Barack Obama’s claim that he’s a naturally born citizen of the United States. This is important because ONLY a naturally born citizen can be president. That’s why Arnold Schwarzenegger can’t be president. Watch the video, think, then read my comments below.
Does this change your mind about the election? Does this video warrant voting for John McCain or at the very least disqualifying Barack Obama from the race? What do you think will happen if he is disqualified before the election (which won’t happen, not enough time)? What do you think happens of this is settled while Obama is in office?
My short answers are: No, it doesn’t change my mind about the election. I still like the idea of Obama as my President. I’m still going to vote for him. No, it doesn’t warrant voting for John McCain. You should vote for the person you want in office and NOT for someone who you have fundamental, ideological differences with. Yes, if this is true and Barack Obama is NOT a naturally born citizen then he should be disqualified. Just because it’s the law. What’s right is right. That doesn’t mean I don’t think he’s the best man for the job, because I do. But circumventing the laws instead of changing them is just wrong. If this is settled BEFORE the election – and again I don’t see it happening in less than 6 days – who gets the DNC’s nod for presidential nominee? Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton? I think it should go to Hillary Clinton. This is a moot point because it’s not going to happen. Courts just don’t work that fast on anything. Now what happens if this is settled AFTER the election and Barack Obama wins? Then he gets removed from the position and Joe Biden gets the presidency. Seems right at least logistically speaking doesn’t it? Then who does he pick for a VP? man my head is spinning with all the “if’s.”
Personally I don’t think anything is going to happen with this. It will go the way side just like the 9/11 conspiracy theories. No matter how strong the case is it will go away. The overall good of the country is more important than something this small. And it is a small thing people. For those of you who are jumping up and down now, relax. If true it is wrong, by the law, but it’s small and doesn’t change who Barack Obama is, and he is the best man for the job right now.
