Mairi just sent me Steve Malzberg's radio interview with Jeff Kuhner. Apparently, legacy media marionettes like Chris Matthews are now calling for Obama to show the birth certificate. Kuhner and Malzberg say that the governor of Hawaii now is looking for a way to make the certificate public. Kuhner predicts a constitutional crisis if Obama was not born in the US. Malzberg asks the question I asked two years ago: Why is Obama spending so much money to prevent the vault copy's disclosure? In '08 I submitted 5,000 signatures to the FEC requesting that it vet presidential candidates.
My concern then was that the whole thing might be Obama's gambit. What if there is nothing wrong with the certificate and Obama is using this as a ruse to trick his opponent? If it's ok and he then reveals it a few months before the 2012 election it could work in his favor by discrediting his opponents. On the other hand, if it is settled now, it could be interesting. I don't think he should be removed from office if he is not a citizen, but he should be prevented from running again. He has already done maximum damage with the bailouts, the stimulus and the health care act. Kuhner claims that there could be a civil war over this, but I hope that if there is to be a civil war it will be for more important reasons.
How anyone can take a media seriously that does not question why Obama would spend $2 million to keep his vault copy birth certificate private continues to puzzle me.
