Dems Continue to Jab Rick Scott on Obama Birth Certificate

With Republican gubernatorial candidate Rick Scott wrapping up a bus tour of the state, the Florida Democratic Party is taking shots at some of the incidents that occurred on the trip, including Scott saying he would look into whether or not President Barack Obama was born in the United States.

"It's hard to figure out where to begin when discussing Rick Scott's disastrous bus tour over the last week," said Eric Jotkoff, a spokesman for the Democrats.  "From getting physical with reporters and denying access to the candidate, to criticizing his party's presumptive Senate nominee, to suggesting he is open to helping the birthers spread their ridiculous claims, and even sounding racially insensitive himself, the only thing Rick Scott has made clear on this tour is he is not ready for prime time.

"Rick Scott continues giving Floridians countless reasons not to elect him governor beyond the fact that he oversaw a company that pled guilty to the largest Medicare fraud in American history," said Jotkoff. "Rick Scott's complete absence of integrity, vision and values is starting to catch up with him as Floridians see a candidate who is simply wrong for Florida."

Check on Social Security number from Connecticut. How did Obama obtain a SS number living in Hawaii when the SS application would call for his address on where he lives. All of his applications to Harvard and student grants and his law application to the State of Illinois could be fraud.

Any one who has studied the intent of the Founders and the meaning of a natural born citizen understands Obama is not qualified to be President.

A natural born citizen must have two citizen parents. Obama's father was never a citizen of the US.

Key question: Why is Mr. Obama BLOCKING ACCESS to his long birth certificate? You know, that's the one that shows the name of the hospital he was born in, the attending physicians, witnesses, etc. If your answer is that he has already shown us a birth certificate, that is not entirely accurate. He has shown us a computer "short form" that lacks key information.

And no, I do not claim to know where Obama was born. But I'd like to know. Also, the fact that he doesn't allow access makes me strongly believe that he has something to hide. And let's face it, Obama wouldn't hide anything really important from us now, would he?

It does not matter where Obama was born. He is not a natural born citizen.

It DOES matter where he was born. Anyone born on U.S. soil (states, territories, or protectorates) is considered, by law, a U.S. Citizen, no matter where their parents were born. There are specific cases where a child born outside of the U.S. is still a citizen if one or both parents are citizens at the time of birth, as long as certain qualifications are met. The laws are easily researched on the 'net. I dislike Obama, but specific proof is needed, not general, un-researched statements.
