I agree almost entirely with you John... except for the part about "resolved by intelligent people".. We could argue a long time about the intelligence of folks managing government agencies and so on... :lol:
I didn't say Hispanic was a race - merely stating what used to be on official forms (resolved by intelligent people) years ago. The 2010 Census form used many of those same terms under the "Race" question (including Hispanic)... I checked the "Other" box and wrote in "Human" for my race!

You mean about being human?? :rofl: That's open to debate.. my wife would probably vote against me... :rofl:
Other than that, I left most of the form blank too - none of the government's business what time I leave for work or how many toilets we have.. nothing to do with how many people live here...

This whining is making the US the laughing stock of the world. THAT's why our influence has diminished.
Can we get on to some serious discussions, especially about photography, or are we going to whine about conspiracy theories that degrade America's reputation and have NO impact on the well-being of this country? :patriot:

By the way, for your education enlightenment, "hispanic" is now considered an "ethnicity" and not a race.


First off, I believe this section of the message board is Off Topic so why would be seriously discussing photography?

Yes, many things in this country need serious attention but that doesn't mean we can't discuss our thoughts about Obama or anyone else's birth certificate. I doubt that the whining over Obama's bc is the reason why our influence around the world has diminished. I think our influence has been diminished over much more serious actions from our government.

As for America's reputation and our discussion having NO impact on the well-being of this country have you ever given just a minute of consideration as to what it would mean for our reputation and well being if Obama's bc is a fraud? I don't know if his bc is valid or not but I think those of us that are interested in discussing the issue should do so, just as I believe that those that are not interested should not have to participate in the discussion.

Honestly, obama just needs to show is official birth certificate. It takes 1 day to get past this, not showing it just instigating.

Africa is home to white and black people and probably some other colors too so I don't see how their birth documents would state African as a race. I still believe that a US birth certificate in 1961 would not have African as a race, as African is not a skin color.


Nope, it was a common "mistake" made in those days, you see in Hawaii parents would supply their own race, and "self identify" themselves:

The US is the laughing stock to much of the International community because we are economically and energy bankrupt. We are a Paper Tiger with our heads in the sand. If our oil is cut off, we can't fly military planes or ships. If our creditors cut us off we can't buy oil.....which powers America.....farm equipment, trucks, trains, planes, etc.

Our true National Security problem is that we are NOT financially or energy independent. Our politicians bribe us for votes with programs that we cannot afford....as they take Lobby/Special Interest bribe money for their personal gain. We borrow money from one group of potential enemies to buy oil from another group of potential enemies.

We have two political parties that are more interested in their corrupt mafia like tactics than in doing what is good for America. The US Constitution and our money both have become toilet paper.

All I have to say is...get over it. His term is almost up, why should it matter now.

I'm curious as to why people keep telling others to get over it or asking why it matters? Really, you don't understand why it would matter if the document was a fraud? If you really don't want to be part of the conversation then don't be, but don't just post a message for everyone to get over it. That is rather rude and appears to be dismissive of other poster's thoughts and opinion.

Hi everyone, just popping my head in here to remind everyone to respect each others views, we are all entitled to our own opinions and it don't mean you need to agree with them. Let's just keep things friendly and flowing smoothly. :)

Much respect to you all,

Alex
