I know that there are many good-hearted Clinton supporters here...can I ask something of you?

If you think this 'Obama isn't a US citizen' argument is a ridiculous argument, completely out of line, and better served up in freepertown, please stand up and be heard here. There's been absurd accusations thrown back and forth here, and this one is really going into territory I don't want to see DU enter - THAT BARACK OBAMA HAS TO PROVE THAT HE'S AMERICAN.
Anyway, check in if you want to see this nonsense...and all of these bullshit non-issues...end now.
Thanks for your support.

All of sudden the conservatives have all this respect for HRC.

they'd turn on her at the earliest opportunity.

Obama wrecks all their hard work. And you know campaigning dirty is "haaaard woooork" (Add Bush-like whine there).

posted that all the candidates had to prove their citizenship to qualify to run. She said they have to show a birth certificate. I know Frenchie Cat would not lie, so yes, I think Obama, and anyone else who wants to be President of the United States, has to prove that they are American.

This is a Dem site, we should be passing on slanderous rumors about Republicans. I hear McCain isn't really a US citizen?

but where are all the Obama fans defending Clinton against ridiculously stupid right-wing smears? Oh, they're the ones spreading them.

But now somehow Clinton supporters are obligated to not only defend their candidate against the non-stop lies here, now we have to defend Obama, too? You guys sure ask a lot.

nonsense, of course. These things are stirred up to get the elevation behind the arguing over it.

Barack Obama is AN AMERICAN!!!!




Who the hell said he wasn't?

People are just really pulling some outlandish shit out these days

I believe both candidates have proven citizenship way before now. I believe Obama was born in Hawaii. I believe he is eligible to run and serve. NOW...ignorant theories that you might be addressing...

Obama was born in Hawaii but Hawaii is not legally a part of the United States. Separatist, Hawaii occupation resister stupidity!!

Obama holds dual citizenship, U.S and Kenya. According to the Kenyon Constitution, this may be correct. It would encompass him through his father. I don't see where our Constitution prohibits this as long as he has loyalty to only the United States. Smaller minds can argue the finer points of that on.

Obama wasn't born in Hawaii. WTF????????

Are there any others that I am missing?

This is as stupid as saying McCain is not a US citizen, but then there were more than enough fools around here arguing that before the Senate put it to rest.

and that was John McLame.

see "all of these bullshit non-issues...end now" you know that. This thing has been so shitty for so long there's a snowball's chance in hell of that occurring it befalls me to inform :):(

Ignore the idiots.

has seen nothing like that on DU. Maybe I was off line at the time. If I had seen it I would have called attention to it as being downright mean! Frankly, all I have seen since I came on 20 minutes ago is ridicule for Hillary Clinton. Same old, same old. The Hillary haters simply can't bring themselves to admit she won West Virginia. Well, maybe WV is not all that important to you who dislike her, but I think it is great. Not a nice word anywhere. And praising KO because he made some smartass remark about her speech. I give Obama credit where credit is due all the time. If he is the nominee I will certainly vote for him. When you dump ridicule on Hillary Clinton you are dumping ridicule on her supporters. But you sure can get loud when you think someone has dissed Obama. This is one reason I hate coming here anymore. It used to be different. It used to be civil. But that was early 2002. This is hatred season of 2008.
