This is a humiliating flip-flop for Trump, but it really was inevitable.

This is a distraction put out by Clinton to get off the front page of the news and nothing more. if Clinton was not desperate they wouldn't need to drag up an issues from 8 years ago that a member of the Clinton campaign origionally started.

Agreed, and he also carried Kenyan citizenship until he was 23.

But it wasn't put out by Clinton, it was put out by Trump's own campaign manager!
Patti Solis Doyle, who was Hillary Clinton’s campaign manager in 2008 until the Iowa caucuses, admitted on Friday that a Clinton campaign staffer had, in fact, circulated the Birther conspiracy theory that Barack Obama was born outside the U.S. and therefore potentially ineligible to serve in the presidency.
Doyle made the admission on Twitter, as she responded to former George W. Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer. Fleischer said that Clinton’s staff had spread the rumor. Doyle said that was a “lie” — but admitted, in the same tweet, that she had fired the “rogue” staffer who had used email to spread the Birther conspiracy theory.
Doyle appeared about an hour later on CNN with Wolf Blitzer to address the issue once again. She denied that Hillary Clinton had started the Birther theory — then admitted that someone in the Clinton campaign had, in fact, been involved. Here is part their exchange:
Blitzer: Someone supporting Hillary Clinton was trying to promote this so-called Birther issue? What happened?
Doyle: So we — absolutely, the campaign nor Hillary did not start the Birther movement, period, end of story there. There was a volunteer coordinator, I believe, in late 2007, I believe, in December, one of our volunteer coordinators in one of the counties in Iowa — I don’t recall whether they were an actual paid staffer, but they did forward an email that promoted the conspiracy.
Blitzer: The Birther conspiracy?
Doyle: Yeah, Hillary made the decision immediately to let that person go. We let that person go. And it was so, beyond the pale, Wolf, and so not worthy of the kind of campaign that certainly Hillary wanted to run.
Doyle went on to relate how she personally called Obama campaign manager David Plouffe to apologize, and he accepted. Blitzer then asked her about the Mark Penn memorandum, in which the campaign’s strategist proposed exploiting Obama’s “lack of American roots.” Doyle asserted, and Blitzer agreed, that the memo had nothing to do with Birtherism.
And further to prove my point -
Obama in Africa: I'm Proud To Be First Kenyan-American President
Why can't the people of Kenya be proud of a Kenyan-American president?
If you want an example of the transparency of this administration, try to find a video of the obama vs. keyes debate when obama was running for the senate in Illinois. The one when Keyes said, "You aren't even a US citizen." And obama, who had an opportunity to make a fool out of his opponent by proving his citizenship chose to say, "What difference does it make? I am running for the senate, not the presidency." THAT was the beginning of the birther movement.

No mystery or conspiracy here: The reason you can't find that video is because it never existed and the conversation never took place.
Keyes never said that to Obama, and Obama never said that to Keyes.

Obama has often said things that have turned up later and made him out to be a real goof up.
It is very difficult to keep track of all the times he has had to have those "cleanup crews" go in and expunge so many goof ups from the public record that it leaves no question at all that he is a "made man" A manufactured device.

Backfired narrative.
That's according to Trump himself, who, in an interview with NBC, warned his investigators just might uncover "one of the greatest cons in the history of politics and beyond."
"I have people that have been studying it and they cannot believe what they're finding," Trump said an interview that aired Thursday Morning.
Asked if he has assigned people specifically to search in Hawaii, Trump said, "Absolutely."

What are you babbling about?
More likely it was never there, as it did not happen!
So show us a copy of the paper....
So it happened at the same time as something that never happened....
Have you actually listened to her words?

It appears you usually don't comprehend anyone here, and this is no different. And so, there is no point telling you anything since you will just be confused.
