Never happened. If the Clinton campaign had been pushing the birther story it would have been all over the news in the spring of 2008. It wasn't. You're an idiot and a liar.
Origins of the claims
In March 2008, rumors that Obama was born in Kenya were spread on conservative websites.
[26] During the
Democratic Party's
2008 presidential primaries, anonymous e-mails from supporters of Hillary Clinton surfaced that questioned Obama's citizenship in an attempt to revive Clinton's faltering
primary electioncampaign. These and numerous other chain e-mails during the subsequent presidential election circulated false rumors about Obama's origin, religion and birth certificate.

Jim Geraghty of the conservative website
National Review Online may have sparked further speculation on June 9, 2008, when he asked that Obama release his birth certificate.
[29][30] Geraghty wrote that releasing his birth certificate could debunk several false rumors circulating on the Internet, namely: that his middle name was originally Muhammad rather than Hussein; that his mother had originally named him "Barry" rather than "Barack"; and that Barack Obama, Sr. was not his biological father, as well as the rumor that Barack Obama was not a natural-born citizen.
[30][31][32]
In October 2009, anonymous e-mails circulated claiming that the
Associated Press (AP) had reported Obama was "Kenyan-Born".
[33] The claims were based on an AP story that had appeared five years earlier in a Kenyan publication,
The Standard.
[33][34] The rumor-checking website
Snopes.com found that the headline and lead-in sentence describing Obama as born in Kenya and misspelling his first name had been added by the Kenyan newspaper, and did not appear in the story issued by the AP or in any other contemporary newspaper that picked up the AP story.
