Trump's racist attacks of Birther issue- Its all Clinton's fault!

[Syriusly]

Angus, it does not matter.

What does matter is "why" Trump ran with birfers for five years.

Well Angus doesn't want to address that question.

Really- which is the more relevant question in 2016:

1. Why did President Obama who is leaving office in a few months, not notice an error made 25 years ago in an obscure pamplet or
2. Why did the GOP candidate for President go full idiot Birther from 2011 to 2016?

How could anyone who is not a Birther him or herself so blindly accept Donald Trump's appeal to Birther votes?

 

[Syriusly]

1. Hillary started the birther movement, that is a well known fact.
2. There is nothing racist about it.

LOL- like a true Trumpster and Birther- you just can't resist lying.

But tell me- why do you want to believe that Donald Trump was just a gullible fool who had his strings pulled by Hillary Clinton for 5 years?

Tell me, why do you make shit up and claim I said it?i never stated, thought, or meant any of that. That only exists in your alleged mind.

A) you lied by claiming that Hillary Clinton started the Birtherism that Donald Trump embraced
B) You clearly want to believe that Hillary Clinton was responsible for Donald Trump being a gullible fool when he declared himself all in as a Birther.

How about you- you still a Birther?

 

[Care4all]

This is real, from 1991...Obama used a different story when it benefited him.

That was explained by the asst editor who did it, and your insinuation was rebutted a long time ago.

Birferism is a core essential of Alt Right beliefs in that it embodies racial and cultural taboos.

Why did the editor lie and why did Barack perpetuate the lie?

Neither happened, and you know it was an error, later admitted by the asst editor.

America knows now that birferism is an emotional disease, and Red Donald has a lot of explaining to do.

Why was it an error? Why did the editor think Barack was born in Kenya?

She was an assistant editor/Intern at the time and was told to quickly write up a small biography on a handful of new authors at her company for their editors/publishers so they could get to know their new authors...nothing was published for the "out side" or public to read...Obama's book was about his Dreams of his Father, who was also named Barack Hussein Obama, born in Kenya, and she said she made a mistake.

 

[Care4all]

The Clinton campaign did not push the Obama was born in Kenya thing and they DID NOT START IT....her campaign did not start it, they were NOT the FOUNDERS of Birtherism...what the two Clinton supporters did, was forward Birther like articles on Obama that were written by the right wing media, like the Weekly Standard, until it was found out they did it, and then they were asked to stop by the Clinton campaign... These two supporters DID NOT create the birther movement, the right wing media was all over it in 2008 and like said they simply forwarded these right wing media article to others....the CONSPIRACY had already been created, by people long before 2008 and by one of Obama's opponents in the race for State Senator of Illinois..... and even that stuff was not questioning his birth place, but was questioning whether he was a Muslim or not, which later became part of birtherism

 

[ColonelAngus]

Angus, it does not matter.

What does matter is "why" Trump ran with birfers for five years.

"WHY" matters, because mistakes like that can start a false narrative. It's a doozy of a mistake for someone to make that is in contact with Obama.

It's a very weird thing to get wrong. The "EDITOR" failed miserably to "EDIT".

The editor made a simple error. There was little question from the beginning that Obama was American born, but Trump kept the lie going for diabolical reasons. He will answer "why".

 

[ColonelAngus]

So weird...The booklet, which was distributed to “business colleagues” in the publishing industry, includes a brief biography of Obama among the biographies of eighty-nine other authors represented by Acton & Dystel.

Barack Obama, the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review, was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii. The son of an American anthropologist and a Kenyan finance minister, he attended Columbia University and worked as a financial journalist and editor for Business International Corporation. He served as project coordinator in Harlem for the New York Public Interest Research Group, and was Executive Director of the Developing Communities Project in Chicago’s South Side. His commitment to social and racial issues will be evident in his first book, Journeys in Black and White.


They seemed to get a lot of the other facts correct. I wonder where they got all of this data, and why the only thing incorrect was his birthplace. You would think they would check with their authors about their past before publishing the booklet.

That book, "JOURNEYS IN BLAXCK AND WHITE" was never published.

This is interesting:

"Obama has been known frequently to fictionalize aspects of his own life. During his 2008 campaign, for instance, Obama claimed that his dying mother had fought with insurance companies over coverage for her cancer treatments.

That turned out to be untrue, but Obama has repeated the story–which even the Washington Post called “misleading”–in a campaign video for the 2012 election"

 

[JakeStarkey]

It's interesting only to the malignantly motivated, the woefully undereducated, the mentally feeble, or any or all combinations of such.

They weren't even "birthed like," in fact the email clearly says Obama was born in Hawaii. It actually accuses Obama of being a Muslim.

YES, I made mention to it not questioning his birth but other things that became part of what birthers were pushing...

It was an intern that pulled together small bios on new authors for their editors/publishers she said she made a mistake, mistook his father's birth place as his... article from 1990

The New York Times
First Black Elected to Head Harvard's Law Review
By FOX BUTTERFIELD, Special to The New York Times
Published: February 6, 1990

BOSTON, Feb. 5— The Harvard Law Review, generally considered the most prestigious in the country, elected the first black president in its 104-year history today. The job is considered the highest student position at Harvard Law School.

The new president of the Review is Barack Obama, a 28-year-old graduate of Columbia University who spent four years heading a community development program for poor blacks on Chicago's South Side before enrolling in law school. His late father, Barack Obama, was a finance minister in Kenya and his mother, Ann Dunham, is an American anthropologist now doing fieldwork in Indonesia. Mr. Obama was born in Hawaii.

''The fact that I've been elected shows a lot of progress,'' Mr. Obama said today in an interview. ''It's encouraging.

''But it's important that stories like mine aren't used to say that everything is O.K. for blacks. You have to remember that for every one of me, there are hundreds or thousands of black students with at least equal talent who don't get a chance,'' he said, alluding to poverty or growing up in a drug environment.

1. Hillary started the birther movement, that is a well known fact.
2. There is nothing racist about it.

LOL- like a true Trumpster and Birther- you just can't resist lying.

But tell me- why do you want to believe that Donald Trump was just a gullible fool who had his strings pulled by Hillary Clinton for 5 years?

Tell me, why do you make shit up and claim I said it?i never stated, thought, or meant any of that. That only exists in your alleged mind.

A) you lied by claiming that Hillary Clinton started the Birtherism that Donald Trump embraced
B) You clearly want to believe that Hillary Clinton was responsible for Donald Trump being a gullible fool when he declared himself all in as a Birther.

How about you- you still a Birther?

A, no, it's the truth. Hillary started to birther movement, that fact is not debatable.
B, you WANT to think I believe that, but I do not. You are making that shit up totally.

I've never been a birther.

You lose.

So you don't believe that Donald Trump was a gullible Birther- even though

This is interesting:"

Not sure why you find this 'interesting' since President Obama is about to leave office, while the GOP candidate for President spent 5 years being a Birther.

I find it interesting that you have no interest in why Donald Trump spent 5 years espousing idiot Birther claims- but then suddenly- and without explanation- miraculously went from Birther to not-Birther.

 

[Syriusly]

America knows now that birferism is an emotional disease, and Red Donald has a lot of explaining to do.

I am just wondering how such an obvious error could occur. How did the editor come up with that incorrect fact in Barack's bio? I thought maybe he explained when it was discussed previously, as you mentioned. It was clearly rebutted, so how did the editor come up with that erroneous information?

Go study up on it. Trump, who betrayed you, obviously believes it was appropriately rectified.

You seem to know a lot about it. How did the editor mistakenly think that Obama was born in Kenya? How did the thought get into the editor's head?

You are really obsessed about this. You seem to expect that posters here at USMB will be able to offer something more than our speculations.

Which we have- which you ignore.

So why do you keep asking us to guess as to why someone made a mistake?

Barack Obama Jr.- born in Hawaii
Barack Obama Sr.- born in Kenya

How could that mistake ever happen

(my father and my grandfather were senior's and junior's- my dad continued to get mail intended for his dad for at least a decade after he died........)

HRC did not start the movement, a staffer, who was fired, passed on an email that said he was a Kenyan born in America. The alt right and far right picked it up from there, predfan.

It's not an issue now.

But what is an issue is the "why" of DJT for carrying on look a fool for five years and now not explaining it.

Considering the number of things that Donald Trump says every day that are untrue- and that he is actually running for office- I wonder why you aren't interested in any of his untruths?

Like his claim that Hillary Clinton started Birtherism.
