Here's a story about pretext racism.
A group of whackos is attempting to derail Obama's presidency by having the Supreme Court declare him ineligible since he was born outside the U.S.
Every time someone points out the evidence showing Obama was born in the U.S., it is dismissed in favor of the conspiracy.
It's very difficult to respond to a conspiracy theory, not because the conspiracy is true, but because the conspiracy relies on faith, so any evidence to the contrary is dismissed, while evidence supporting the conspiracy takes on added importance.
Here's a problem for the conspiracy theorists: If they manage to win (which they won't) then John McCain has a similar citizenship problem, viz., he was born in Panama.
Between Obama and McCain, Obama has the stronger claim to U.S. citizenship since he was born in the U.S. to a native-born mother.

I was wondering when you would make a meantion of this. I have been seeing nothing BUT this load of bull everywhere. I was getting ready to ask you about your thoughts on it.
I have been seeing nonstop about some stupid radio station in Pittsburg I think it was that called Kenya to ask if Obama had been born there. And of course people believed them. Now you tell me, WHAT radio station is going to have the money to call KENYA and talk for 30 minutes about someone they believe was born there? It costs a small fortune to call England for ten minutes, its surely more to call KENYA and ask multiple questions. And what made them choose Kenya? My thinking is that they chose the only place in Africa they could think of, and set it up where they could make a fake phone call.
And even if they did prove Obama wasnt born in the US.... he may have to step down, but wont a Democrat STILL be in charge?
Forget my moment of craziness of saying what made them choose Kenya.... I just remembered where that comes into play. Oops! Please disregard that comment.
They are still dumbasses for coming up with this crap.
