What was the PURPOSE of the Birthers?? Was it an HONEST inquiry into the president, or an attempt to HUMILIATE and DELEGITIMATIZE him??

Ask Hillary, she was the original birther. She brought it up during the 2008 primary.

Hello my:

That's the rumor.  But, FactCheck.org say's no.  They said, that "while it’s true that some of her ardent supporters pushed the theory, there is no evidence that Clinton or her campaign had anything to do with it."

Supposedly there's a memo from the Clinton campaign that supports your claim..  I didn't look for it.  If you find it, I'll be happy to reconsider.

Since Hillary's 2008 campaign first brought it up, you might ask her. I'll add, that if she says she is satisfied that Obama was born in Hawaii and is no longer vilified for questioning his birth, why is Trump still vilified when he now says he is satisfied now? Isn't that a double standard on the left's part?

Hello S:

I quoted FactCheck.org above to my.  I'll quote Politifact.com to you..  They rate the claim as FALSE.  If you have evidence to the contrary, instead of your flapping gums, I'll be happy to consider it.

No need to get nasty with your 'flapping gums' comment. As I've said to you before, it only diminishes your response!

BOTH FactCheck and Politifact are LIBERAL sites and both lean to the left when doing their fact checking. It was Hillary's campaign AND her supporters who initially started it and Hillary didn't speak out against it until she conceded to Obama.

All I see is you claiming it as a fact that HRC and her supporters initially started it. You're obviously not any less unbiased than what you claim about FactCheck and Politifact. Your claim is as such not worth a penny. Show the evidence as excon asked for.
