And what happened to the "unbelievable things" Trump's crack team of gumshoes discovered on their trip to Hawaii?
this is the person Trump was using as the source for all his birther-related information:
"Today I’m very proud of myself* because I’ve accomplished something that nobody else has been able to accomplish. He should have done it a long time ago. Why he didn’t do it when the Clintons asked for it, why he didn’t do it when everybody else was asking for it, I don’t know."
What's this bit about "he didn't do it when the Clintons asked for it"? Does that have any basis in reality? I certainly wouldn't put it above Hillary and her campaign in 2008. But it's equally possible that the Donald is just making this up.
In 2008, in response to media inquiries, the President’s campaign requested his birth certificate from the state of Hawaii. The state sent the campaign the President’s birth certificate, the same legal documentation provided to all Hawaiians as proof of birth in state, and the campaign immediately posted it on the internet. That birth certificate can be seen here (PDF).When any citizen born in Hawaii requests their birth certificate, they receive exactly what the President received. In fact, the document posted on the campaign website is what Hawaiians use to get a driver’s license from the state and the document recognized by the Federal Government and the courts for all legal purposes. That’s because it is the birth certificate. This is not and should not be an open question.
(NewsCore) - Could Donald Trump become the presidential candidate that uses the most profanities to get his point across?At a rally of almost 1,000 Republican supporters in Las Vegas on Thursday night, the real estate mogul called the US leadership "weak, pathetic and incompetent."He also used seven expletives in his well-received 40-minute speech, the Las Vegas Sun reported -- one of many media organizations to note his language.The reality TV star, who is mulling a bid for a run at the White House, stopped short of announcing his presidential intentions, but spoke as if he had already made up his mind.Responding to a woman in the audience who told him to run, Trump replied, "Thank you, darling. I think I'm going to make you very happy.""There's a good chance I won't win ... a blood-sucking politician who has been [expletive] the public for years" will win, he added.Trump has already said he will decide by June whether to run for president, but he used the event at the ballroom of the Treasure Island hotel to give his thoughts on the US's policies on Libya and Iraq, its relations with China and what he would do about rising gas prices."We need somebody to say you're not going to raise that [expletive] price!" Trump said, according to FOX News Channel.He described President Barack Obama's stand on Libya as "incoherent" and said the US should not be giving money to Iraq."We spend $1.5 trillion in Iraq ... we build a school, they blow it up. We can't even build a [expletive] school in Brooklyn!" he said.The 64-year-old blasted Obama for holding a state dinner with China's president, saying, "When people are screwing you, you don't give them state dinners.""If you make a deal you get a state dinner. If you don't make a deal you take McDonald's and go home," he added, according to the Las Vegas Review-Journal.Accusing the Chinese of "ripping off" the US in trade deal by manipulating its currency to gain an advantage, Trump said he had a solution for the nation."Listen you [expletive], I'm going to tax you 25 percent!" he said, according to FOX News Channel.When asked if he had come up with a campaign motto, Trump said, "Success and victory for the country, not for me. Yeah, success and victory.""If I run and I win we will have a rich country again, a great country again, and what I almost like most, we'll be respected again."Voters have mixed feelings about Trump's entering the political arena, according to a FOX News poll released earlier Thursday. Setting aside whether they would support Trump in an election, 47 percent like his frank talk and the message he sends to the world, while the same number do not like his style.By a 24 percent margin, more voters have a negative than a positive view of Trump.Trump is in Las Vegas to attend the three-day wedding celebrations for his friend, casino mogul, Steve Wynn.
[Trump] said he would not help struggling nations such as South Korea or Libya without payment and promised to use swear words while negotiating with China.
