    So you will make tax returns an issue? Show how you have nothing on Trump. His tax returns mean nothing. You show this is about your hate for Trump because he beat Hillary

    I liked Obama as a person, I think he was a good president, but could have been a lot better and could have accomplished much more than he did. I probably disagreed as much as I agreed with his policies, what he was trying and tried to do. When Bill Clinton lost control of congress in 1994, he adjusted to that fact and I think Bill went on to have a very successful presidency. Accomplishing much more than Obama. Obama's fault I think is his failure to adjust after the 2010 debacle. He still tried to govern like he had those huge majorities in congress during his first two years instead of having lost the house. Hence outside of Obama use of his pen and phone, executive orders to bypass congress, he accomplished very little during his last six years.

    I wouldn't place Obama among my top 10 presidents and not among my bottom 10. Probably somewhere close to 20. In my lifetime I certainly would have Eisenhower, JFK, LBJ, Reagan, G.H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton above him. Carter, Ford, Nixon, G.W. Bush below him. I do think Obama would have been ranked much higher on my list if he would have adjusted to the new political realities the 2010 election brought to the fore for his presidency. He could have accomplished so much more, the ability was there. I suppose I view Obama more as what could have been and wasn't due to his inability to adjust to the new political realities caused by 2010.

    this is a link from 2008 with the birth certificate in it, so was released before that

    the article is dated "Thursday June 12, 2008 · 10:44 AM CDT"

    Obama released his Birth Certificate in 2008

    Obama released the Long Form version in 2011

    doesn't matter, the date of the article is before the election, thus that is proof it was released before the election

    What you posted does not prove it was made available to the public, here is the first instance of that. Who the hell knew there was a "long form" before Obummer?

    In response to the conspiracy theories, the White House released copies of the President's long-form birth certificate on April 27, 2011, and posted an image of it to the White House website, reaffirming that he was born on August 4, 1961, in Honolulu, Hawaii.

    it has Obama's birth certificate in it, the election was in November 2008, you do the math

    the long form was released in 2011, the normal birth certificate was released in 2008 (before the election)

    I doubt it, if that was so, the rumors would have died an early death.

    well it was so, and even after the long and short form released and Hawaii verified it, here you are still unable to see the truth.... some just do not want to I guess?

    It was propaganda, or to be specific, racist dog whistling.

    That is was blatantly false was part of it's appeal.

    Your opinion is not really surprising since for you the only thing that matters in this country is the Second Amendment.

    Are your guns useful in this pandemic?

    It's hard to really judge a presidents tenure at first because it usually takes many years to see the results of their policies. It looks like he will be considered more ineffectual than anything.A lot of what he did has been done away with and many of the issues he inherited are no better now than when he took office.

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say you know better.

    Which means you're trolling.

    Which is just another way of saying you've come up empty in a number of ways.
