I hate to think of what diversion is going to be used by Team Obama to make this disappear....

UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER 2:You are [unintelligible] saying that he isserving illegally as the President of the United States.
JOE ARPAIO: I never said that.
UNIDENTIFIED REPORTER 2:Well, if you...
JOE ARPAIO: I never said that. I... We’re talking about a birth certificate. And he can... he can present other information proving that he was born here. I’m just talking about a birth certificate, possible forgery, and fraud. That’s all
Your point?
I'm not denying it, I'm saying Arpaio is.
Fraud does make eligibility questionable,
but Fraud is also a crime, so it makes the Obama Administration criminal before making him ineligible.
And I never said he wrote the book either
Really?
Arpaio is even selling an ebook on the investigation entitled 'a question of eligibility':
How? How is knowing about it contributing? Blaming him for something he didn't do again?
Well yeah, it is his birth certificate, the whole thing is about him
The whole investigation is about the digital copy genius. They want to forensic age test the microfilm physical document.
Who else was going to do the investigation then?
I don't put it in the realm of impossibility that he wasn't born here.
JOE ARPAIO:Good afternoon. You know, in August last year, a large group of citizens came to my office from the Surprise Arizona Tea Party and met with me, asked if I would investigate the controversy surrounding President Obama's birthcertificate and his ability to serve as the President of the United States. This groupexpressed displeasure that no law enforcement agency in the country has ever goneon record indicating that they had either looked into this situation or were willingto do so.I decided to utilize my cold case posse, volunteers, to investigate the situation at no expense to the tax payer.

Arpaio never denied that the investigation involved questioning Obama's eligibility. He just denied that he made any claims that Obama was illegally the president.
You know my point. If there was an investigation that concluded Ron Paul and his supporters were rigging the elections, and the investigations were lead by keith olbermann, michael moore and nancy pelosi, and their experts involved individuals with no prior experience in elections, would you lend credibility to the investigation? I certainly wouldn't think so.
Fraud does make eligibility questionable,
Yet you deny that Arpaio is questioning Obama's eligibility through his conclusions.
Unless it involves a document in question that was and is key to answering the eligibility question. Birthers demanded Obama release his long form birth certificate to settle their complaints, Obama did so, now birthers concluded that the long form is fraudulent. To insist this is not connected to Obama's eligibility, and that Arpaio's findings are not related to this question, is misleading to say the least.
So you are of the position that Arpaio may have not known what ebook was going to be entitled before he decided to contribute I take it? If Arpaio is so insistent this has nothing to do with questioning his eligibility, why didn't he get the title of the ebook changed? And why did he allow his county sheriffs of to be named as one of the contributors to the ebook? Because he is questioning Obama's eligibility.
Well yeah, it is his birth certificate, the whole thing is about him
But you're not accusing him of anything, neither is Arpaio.
I already addressed this. It would be a digital forgery, so yes they have all the authority to call it that, by analysis and by contrasting the excuses from the Whitehouse.
Again, you have absolutely no authority in calling a document a forgery if you haven't examined the actual document, and if your experts have no experience or knowledge about handling birth certificates, specifically Hawaiian birth certificates. Does a computer expert have the authority or experience to conclude my drivers licence is fraudulent? No. Does a graphics designer have the authority to conclude my passport is a forgery? No. This is hard to understand.
Who else was going to do the investigation then?
Actually it was a trick question because the answer is that no one would likely do it because they think the President was born in the States.
Hawaiian health officials, those individuals who handle and hold the necessary experience in Hawaiian birth certificates. The only people who can authenticate birth records in Hawaii. But if you did that, the answer would not come to your liking now would it?
But you don't believe he has proven that he was born there? Simple question.

geeze are you blue in the face yet.. great post BTW.
only reason I ever doubted obamas citizenship is because his own grandmother said she watched his birth in .... and the fact that all the documents and secrecy around these Docs. the semantics behind the law during the Time of obamas birth show he is not eligible tho. someone in the begging of the thread cleared that up well with links and quotes of the law to back it up.

So you believe he has proven that he is eligible to the presidency of the United States? Clarify this for me.

So follow your own logic then. Arpaio is not saying the president is serving illegally, but somehow he is saying that he is ineligible. you cannot separate the two.
I don't dismiss the evidence before seeing it. It's pretty much as simple as that.
I'm saying it wasn't the focus of discussion, the document was.
Uhhh. If the image of the document the Whitehouse released was generated digitally, then it's fraud.
man you are obsessed with this eligibility thing.
Yeah, it's pretty hard to have a fraudulent birth certificate and be innocent at the same time.
Yes. Just like when a liar tells you the truth. All i'm saying is, yeah, in all likeliness he was born in Hawaii,

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!! Do I need to put it in CRAYON FONT FOR YOU!?!? YES, I think he qualifies based of his Hawaiian birth!

No need to argue the details of eligibility, because that wasn't the argument, nor the accusation being submitted.
JOE ARPAIO:Good afternoon. You know, in August last year, a large group of citizens came to my office from the Surprise Arizona Tea Party and met with me, 4 asked if I would investigate the controversy surrounding President Obama's birthcertificate and his ability to serve as the President of the United States.
LISA ALLEN:Good afternoon. I'm Lisa Allen(?), the director of media relationsfor the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, here to introduce you to those who aregoing to be speaking today and presenting the initial findings of a six-month longinvestigation by the sheriff's cold case posse into the authenticity of the President's birth certificate and his subsequent eligibility to hold the office of president
CORSI: I can tell you that the investigators were skeptical, not enthusiastic to undertake theinvestigation, that I came with a stated determination to find the truth. I waswilling, and remain willing, to have been found wrong by the law enforcement investigation on everything I’ve researched and written about Barack Obama’s birth certificate and his eligibility to be President to this point.
CARL STEEL: To make sure that in the future we maintain the integrity of our ballot and make sure that any candidate seeking public office meets the criteria that [sic] the office they seek, and give the power to government to enforce our Constitution.

Your participation in this thread has nothing to do with whether Obama has proven he is eligible to be president? I find this hard to believe.
