Hey Johnny D -

It's no secret I hate the guy, but I concede he was almost certainly born here.

But here's my question...why has Obama spent so much of his own money (I've heard hundreds of thousands of dollars) to ensure that his birth certificate and Harvard paperwork remain undisclosed?

I think that's a fair question, I don't think it makes me a racist or a kook. I can think of 2 reasons, and only 2...

(1) he wants to keep the "birther" movement alive. so that he (and the media) can demonize the opposition as kooks.

(2) there's something in there he doesn't want anyone to see. My guess is that when he applied to Harvard, he claimed that he wasn't a US citizen, in the hoopes of getting preferential admission or preferential financial aid.

Do any of the Obama supporters think my question is radical? Anyone have any guesses as to the answer? Most recent presidents have happily disclosed that stuff, Obama has gone to considerable expense to prevent that.
