to place "phony" birth announcements in Hawaiian newspapers, somehow forge
birth certificates soon thereafter to use for enrollment to schools, later for
the draft, later for college, later for a marriage certificate, etc. etc.
Why didn't she just have the baby in Hawaii?
This, to me, is the one question that makes this whole birther thing incredibly
ridiculous.
BTW, wouldn't there be any copies somewhere - doctor's offices? school records,
scholarship files? somewhere?

If you think people are cheats/cheating you - it's probably because you do it yourself.
If anything Donald Trump is showing his TRUE face. He 'cheats' to get ahead. He KNOWS he does - and he thinks everyone else does.

(8,646 posts)That's exactly what they think. They think everyone is always trying to screw people the same way they are. I was married to a POS like that. Was always 'joking' about ingenious ways I 'could be' cheating. Guess who was the cheater?
It's called projection.

"The Donald" is very good at snide, disparaging remarks with Obama hundreds if not thousands of miles away. Well, The Donald was in the same room as President Obama handed the snide, cheap-shot thousandaire his ass on a silver platter.
Plus, his ego demands he get air time any way possible.

I smell a rat. I think Romney is in cahoots with Trump. He probably said, "Yes, you stir the shit up" and I'll say I don't agree.

(96,793 posts)I knew it! Knowing he would grow up to be president and wanting a president born in Hawaii, they conspired with Obama's mother to lie and claim he was born in Hawaii!
