Sen. Rubio On Donald Trump’s Birtherism: ‘Why Are We Talking About This?’

video
» 65 comments

While the media is reveling in Donald Trump‘s newfound status as Republican presidential candidate, not everyone on the right seems to understand why Trump has chosen President Barack Obama‘s nationality as a battlefront. One voice opposed to spotlighting the “birther” issue is Sen. Marco Rubio, who wondered aloud this week how President Obama’s birthplace has become a legitimate campaign issue.

Speaking to the Daily Caller‘s Matt Lewis, Sen. Rubio appeared genuinely puzzled that the President’s birthplace is still an issue so many years later. “There are more important things facing our country,” he noted. “What does that have to do with the $14 trillion we owe?” he asked, adding that the national debt– particularly with regard to China– is what “we should be focusing on like a laser.”

Compared to reactions from some possible 2012 frontrunners– including Mike Huckabee this morning– Sen. Rubio’s dismissive response to Trump comes almost as a surprise. Of course, unlike most people talking about Donald Trump on television and the internet, Sen. Rubio has a constituency to worry about, whether he runs for higher office or not, and the median voter has been proven time and again to care little for the birth certificate talk. Not to mention that, after a hellish week trying to agree on a national budget, a reality TV star griping about the possibility of the President being foreign-born may seem particularly trivial.

Then there’s the fact that Sen. Rubio may have enough in common with the President that, should he ultimately run for higher office, supporting foreign birth fears could come back to haunt him. Rubio has flatly denied rumors of being anywhere near the GOP presidential ticket in 2012, though at this stage of the horserace it is much more difficult to find someone admitting they are thinking about running than denying it. Perhaps 2012 may be too early for the first-term Senator, but if presidential ambitions are in Sen. Rubio’s future, it wouldn’t be unfathomable that an equally incomprehensible movement speculating about Rubio’s birthplace would form, too. If he runs in 2012, he will have the same amount of experience in the Senate as President Obama had when he won the presidency, and he would likely face a similar uphill battle with a certain sector of the population ethnically, too. After all, Rubio is the son of exiles and was born in Miami, Florida– tropical enough to arouse the brand of ill-placed, time-wasting paranoia Trump has made the centerpiece of his “presidential (?) campaign.”

    He wants the truth about young Barack’s humble beginnings to pour forth as much as the rest of the world.

    It’s just political expediency dictates otherwise.

    In other words, keep your pants on libs everything is not always as it seems.

    You guys, after two plus painful as a hemeroid years with Barack Obama in our White House know this better and more intimately than most.

    Did you mean topical or “tropical”?

  • Sean68

    We’re talking about this because the liberal media is hyping to high heaven because they think it’s a good political issue that alienates mainstream voters from the more right-wing tea party types.

    Was Barack Obama or any members of the congressional black congress asked whether they believe that white people invented AIDS to kill black people? Because a large number of black people believe it, judging from the response of Obama’s fellow parishioners to Rev. Wright’s claim. Now, I’m sure Obama knows he would have to deny it flat out as ridiculous, but I guarantee you, the media wouldn’t have to ask too many black Dems in congress this question before it found a bunch who were willing to voice an equivocal opinion on the subject–keyword: Tuskegee.

    Some things you’ll never find at Mediate… home to radical mouth-breathing, dragger-baggers?

    “Barry, Mau-Mau” plummeting up to 49% approval in the latest Fox (FOX!!!) poll & Gail Collins epic takedown of all things Trump in the Times today:

    Read it and weep losers……………

    “That first book was total genius and helped get him elected,” Trump continued. “But you can tell Obama did the second book himself because it read like it was written by somebody of average intelligence with a high school education.”

    Did I mention that, in his letter, Trump complained about my calling him a “birther” because the word was “very derogatory and meant in a derogatory way”? Obama, of course, graduated from Columbia University and Harvard Law School — if you can believe Columbia and Harvard Law.

    “Three weeks ago I thought he was born in this country. Right now I have some real doubts. I have people that actually have been studying it, and they cannot believe what they’re finding,” Trump announced on “Today.”

    Trump does not actually seem to have people studying, or even Googling. Still, he sounds very self-assured. This is because before he was a reality-show host, he was in the New York real estate business, a profession in which it is vital to be able to say imaginary things with total certainty. (“I have five other people who are begging me to sell them this property. Begging.”)

    Let’s run over some of his arguments:

    THE GRANDMOTHER STORY “His grandmother in Kenya stated, on tape, that he was born in Kenya and she was there to watch the birth,” Trump wrote. This goes back to a trans-Atlantic telephone call that was made in 2008 by Ron McRae, an Anabaptist bishop and birther, to Sarah Obama, the president’s 86-year-old stepgrandmother. He asked her, through an interpreter whether she was “present when he was born in Kenya.” The translator responded: “She says, yes, she was. She was present when Obama was born.”

    It is at this point that some of the tapes floating around the Web stop, which means that the listener doesn’t get to hear the follow-up, which makes it very clear that Sarah Obama misunderstood. The full conversation ends with the interpreter saying, for the umpteenth time: “Hawaii. She says he was born in Hawaii. In the state of Hawaii, where his father, his father was learning there. The state of Hawaii.”

    THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE If only Hawaii made its birth records public, and charged people a thousand dollars a pop to look at them, the state’s budget problems would be solved by the conspiracy theorists. However, it doesn’t. If you were born in Hawaii and request a copy of your birth certificate, you get a certification of live birth, which the federal government accepts for passports. Barack Obama requested his in 2007, and his campaign posted it on the Internet.

    “A certificate of live birth is not even signed by anybody. I saw his. I read it very carefully. It doesn’t have a serial number. It doesn’t have a signature,” said Trump on “Today.”

    The document has the stamped signature of the state registrar. The University of Pennsylvania’s FactCheck.org made a pilgrimage to the Obama campaign headquarters, examined the document, felt the seal, checked the serial number and reported that it looked fine.

    THE EMPTY PHOTO ALBUM “Our current president came out of nowhere. Came out of nowhere,” Trump told the Conservative Political Action Conference to great applause. “In fact, I’ll go a step further. The people that went to school with him, they never saw him; they don’t know who he is. It’s crazy.”

    This week on CNN, Suzanne Malveaux played Trump clips of Hawaiians reminiscing about the schoolchild Obama for a documentary the network had done on the president.

    “Look, I didn’t say that … If he was 3 years old or 2 years old or 1 year old and people remember him, that’s irrelevant,” Trump responded. “You have to be born in this country.” – Gail Collins

    Nope. It’s because Rubio is a smart guy with a political future not wasting his time on stupid tricks to win a presidency. This is why Rubio will be a mainstay in the GOP for years to come and Trump is going to get laughed out of the republican primary.

  • CAconservative

    If Rubio doesn’t understand that the most basic Constitutional requirement for holding the office of president requires proof of birth in the U.S., then this fool doesn’t need to hold office. This idiot-president, and host of Congressional fools believe they are above Constitutional law. The Tea-Party position requires all who hold office in this country do so under the specific guidelines the Constitution sets out. If Rubio “the rube”, and any other Republi-Rats think the opposite, they need to be voted out of office. We are no longer going to suffer fools.

  • catfishjuggling

  • catfishjuggling

    Oh seriously. I am loving this more and more and more.

    http://www.doh.state.fl.us/planning_eval/vital_statistics/birth_death.htm

    Florida’s birth certificate is a computer certification that contains an embossed seal incorporated into the safety paper, which meet requirements established by Homeland Security and other national and international groups. Florida has been issuing computer certification since the mid 1980s, which is accepted by the U.S. Passport Office, the Social Security Administration, courts, school districts, and all other state and federal entities and cruise lines requiring proof of U.S. birth.

    Yes, that is right. If all these stupid birther laws are in place and Rubio runs, he’ll present his birth certifcate. Or as the state of Florida calls it A CERTIFICATE OF LIVE BIRTH.

    I am going to love watching you crazy people explain this.

    (For the crazy people here: I think Rubio was born in Florida. I just think you people are insane.)

  • catfishjuggling

    Obama’s father was here legally on a student visa.

  • 24AheadDotCom

    If Rubio were smarter and had more integrity, he’d be able to figure out that one side of the “Birther” issue cuts right to the heart of many of the problems we have in the U.S.

    Namely, the MSM constantly lying and sloppy thinking on the part of our leaders:

    http://24ahead.com/n/10146

  • catfishjuggling

    Rubio is smart and realizes that the birther issue cuts to the heart of many of our problems indeed.

    Like, for example, stupid nativism.

    As the children of immigrants, I imagine it sickens him to no end to hear people talking like this about Obama. I am sure he doesn’t agree with his policies. I also imagine he has heard morons question his Americaness as well.

    You don’t have to like Obama to admit that the man is American. You just have to live in reality.

    Trump has done more for us ” real ” Americans in four weeks to put a sock in the mouths and boot up the _____ of every single left wing bomb throwing Obama sycophant in this country than every other Republican, conservative, just plain ” real ” American has been able to do for as long as ‘ the chosen one ‘ blew into town.

    So laugh all you want, because the joke is on you and that imposter living in our White House.

    FYI: Even if Barackio was born in Hawaii, he’s an imposter. Need proof? Refuse him his teleprompters, you’ll have all the proof you need.

    For the love of Khrist, ScrewedPecker, have you seen the birth notices in the papers furnished by the hospitals at the time? Do you honestlt think baby Obama had unknown persons publish the birth notices in advance of a presidential run 48 years later? And why on earth would he pick the name Barak Hussein Obama? Huh, why, because he knew as an infant, America would be soooo accepting of a man with a name 1 letter different from the man we most hate in the world, Osama? What about the middle name, Hussein, there’s a good old American sounding name,right, why choose that one? Do any of these make one pause?

    It would affect Trump himself, since his mother was Scottish. I won’t be surprised if The Donald doesn’t hold a dual citizenship, because I remember him opening up a golf course in Scotland few year ago (perhaps using his background to his advantage). Things would be easier if you were British, since his Mother is Scottish, it would be easy for him to become a citizen.

    Which hospital was Obimbo born in? His own family doesn’t know. Anyone can walk into the County Clerks office in Hawaii and ask for a Certification of Birth without evidence of that birth. Is that the legal document the Liberals are putting up as legal proof? Nothing less than a legal Birth-Certificate should be used as legal proof of U.S. birth. Especially, in the highest office of the land.

    “Why are we talking about the President’s birth certificate?” I can answer that question. The Left is incapable of defending the failed stimulus, the stagnant economy, the expanding war fronts without any obvious endgame, the ugly unemployment situation, the exploding national debt, the intensely unpopular Obamacare bill, the disorder on the border, and all the other messes Obama has foisted on us. So they are desperately trying to change the national debate to a discussion about a piece of paper in Hawaii. It’s seems stupid and pointless, huh? But remember, these are the same people who focused all their intellectual capital in last year’s election on the issue of WITCHCRAFT IN DELAWARE. That tells you how astute they are in gauging the political landscape. They could try to muster some real intellectual support for the President’s policies, but they have already decided that it is too hard. So expect to see dozens and dozens of articles in the liberal media about the President’s birth certificate. And then expect to see the Democrats thrashed in next year’s election — as a direct result of this evasion of dialogue on the all the key issues of the day
