What people don't understand is the Media has created their own Third Party!
Actually, I believe most people understand that the MSM CREATES the NEWS. Most of the supposed "events" that they report on, are actually staged.
"Most"?

Yea, the funny thing is, they don't need this guy to make the TPM look racist, they do a perfectly fine job on that themselves already!
They've been called Oreos, traitors and Uncle Toms, and are used to having to defend their values. Now black conservatives are really taking heat for their involvement in the mostly white tea party movement—and for having the audacity to oppose the policies of the nation's first black president.
"I've been told I hate myself. I've been called an Uncle Tom. I've been told I'm a spook at the door," said Timothy F. Johnson, chairman of the Frederick Douglass Foundation, a group of black conservatives who support free market principles and limited government.

What race is someone asking the President for his real birth certificate against? Are there any other Constitutional issues besides Section 1, Article Two that are racist also?
What race is an illegal immigrant? I thought it was a matter of legality.
What race is Muslim? I thought it was a religion.

Really?
Between the birthers, the anti immigrant movement, and every single time they boycott anything Muslim related it's hard pressed to ignore the fact that there is a LOT of bigotry in the TPM.
And you think the government is doing it?

The fact that no other US president has ever had this problem?
Most official references list Arthur as having been born in Fairfield in Franklin County, Vermont on October 5, 1829. However, some time in the 1870s Arthur changed it to 1830 to make himself seem a year younger. His father had initially migrated to Dunham, Lower Canada, where he and his wife at one point owned a farm about 15 miles (24 km) north of the U.S. border. There has long been speculation that the future president was actually born in Canada and that the family moved to Fairfield later. If Arthur had been born in Canada, some believe that he would not have been a natural-born citizen (interpreting the law to mean that to be a natural-born citizen one must be born on U.S. territory) and would thus have been constitutionally ineligible to serve as vice president or president.
During the 1880 U.S. presidential election a New York attorney, Arthur P. Hinman, was hired to explore rumors of Arthur's foreign birth. Hinman alleged that Arthur was born in Ireland and did not come to the United States until he was fourteen years old. When that story failed to take root Hinman came forth with a new story that Arthur was born in Canada. This claim also fell on deaf ears. In any case, Arthur's father was not naturalized until some years after his birth, resulting in Arthur having dual citizenship.
