Gotta wonder what it was all about . . .

So, the president has finally released copies of his birth certificate. He said in a news report that it has been distracting to the running of the country and has taken the focus off of what is important. Okay, true enough but why has he taken over two years to produce it? What was in it for him to put off proving his citizenship until now? If anyone contributed to the distraction, it was his refusal to come forth with it when people made it a source of concern. Presidents should be upfront on such things and you have to wonder why he so enjoyed taking everyone for a ride.

I have never been one of the 'birthers' but did find it odd that something so simple as proving one's birth took so long to be done. I think the politicians should take some time off from figuring out how to tax more and more of our hard-earned income and make a law that ALL presidential candidates have to provide their birth certificate BEFORE they get a nomination. I know, I know, that is too easy and makes sense. It won't happen!
