Birth of a Nation's Leader

Now that President Obama has been forced to take extraordinary and unprecedented steps to attempt to quell the distracting and ridiculous rumors that he was not born in Hawaii, the smear goes on.  According to White House Communications Director, Dan Pfeiffer's statement, "The President directed his counsel to review the legal authority for seeking access to the long form certificate and to request on that basis that the Hawaii State Department of Health make an exception to release a copy of his long form birth certificate. They granted that exception in part because of the tremendous volume of requests they had been getting."
Done!
Right?
Not so much... apparently.
Now, it seems, there are not only those who believe that this document is a fake.  Really!?  But there are the "Schoolers".  Those poor benighted individuals who have turned their attention to questioning Obama's ability to get into the schools he did. And to do so well there.

Now it may just be the Hair-Do of Hair-Do's, Donald Trump who is leading the charge in trying to drum up this new way of calling the President "Black", but the media, who Obama criticized recently for giving air time to the "Birther" debate, who will decide whether this one has legs.

Gladly, it doesn't seem to have progressed much beyond, ironically, progressive radio, and late night comedians.  In fact CBS's veteran Washington correspondent, Bob Schieffer, finally used a network chair to call it what it is.  Racism.  Real racism.  The belief that inherent inferiority is imbued by one's race, specifically not being white.

Thank you Mr. Schieffer.
