He's provided everything....short form, long form, article from the paper saying he was born on that date,he let experts authenticate the original. I'm totally satisfied and so are most of his opponents.

The President could easily have avoided this whole controversy by simply being born Caucasian.

Without the race factor there likely is no Birther movement. I'm not sure how any rational thinking person could ignore this.

What? For real? Because he's black, half black, or part white? YGTBSM.
That's like saying the Truthers are prejudiced against people that fly black helicopters - maybe they are racist for painting helicopters black  (bad attempt at sarcastic humor).
I'm sure there are people that cling to this out of racism, just as there are people that voted for him because he's black, half black, or part white. There are people that voted for him solely because they hoped it would move the country beyond the racial demons that have been deteriorating over the past decades.
A lot of people hold the presidential qualification to a very high standard which allows some people wittingly and unwittingly to hijack that. But that's OK, keep telling yourself its because of race.

The issue here doesn't have anything to do with someone who would vote for Obama simply because he's black...I'm sure there were many but hell, a lot of people just close their eyes and make a mark.
This is about a sustained effort to undermine his legitimacy because he is a black guy with an Islamic name. A quite effective effort in fact to "connect the dots"...Obama is not like "us", therefor his agenda can't logically serve the American interest.
That a lot of Obama policy has been supported by Republicans over the years doesn't seem to be particularity of interest to the Birthers or those Republicans riding on their coat tails.

Obama's birth records have been around since 1961, and validated in 2008 or perhaps even earlier. This issue didn't have legs because of "presidential qualification"...the evidence has always been there that he's qualified to be POTUS.

It's a combination of factors...call it the "other" quotient if you want, but race is all about lineage which this movement is about. Obama is not like you and me...

There's no way it's a name thing. People would never use his full name, Barack Hussein Obama, or emphasize his middle name and try to make Islamic ties.

Are you being smart or saying this never happened? That was brought up a number of times in his campaign. He sicked his lawyers on every single one of them.

Obama mocks Trump's presidential ambitions - Yahoo! News
Ok this is some funny chit there.
"Obama's presentation started after the wrestler Hulk Hogan's patriotic anthem, "Real American," played. Images of Americana from Mount Rushmore to Uncle Sam were shown on the screen, alongside his birth certificate. And then he offered to show his live birth video, which turned out to be a clip from the Disney film, "The Lion King.""
"After a week when Obama released his long-form Hawaii birth certificate, he said Trump could now focus on the serious issues, from whether the moon landing actually happened to "where are Biggie and Tupac?""
"For Trump's decision to fire actor Busey instead of rock singer Meat Loaf from his TV show earlier this month, Obama quipped: "These are the types of decisions that would keep me up at night. Well handled, sir "
"And then, as a coup de grace, Obama showed a screen with his vision of how Trump could bring change to the White House. "Trump" was prominently displayed in glittery letters and girls could be seen with cocktails on a Jacuzzi-augmented front lawn."
Somethin tells me Donny ain't too happy

glad to see that the president has plenty of time to joke, party, golf, go on Oprah and fundraise as the country swirls around the toilet bowl
he continues to be the least presidential president ever...definitely at his best when he is attacking a detractor that can't respond at that moment
