“I don’t know about you guys, but I am so relieved that the whole birther things is over”, the president said, smiling.

Barack Obama spoke at the Congressional Black Caucas, said he would consider it as a personal insult if the community is inactive this election.
Trump delivered an immigration speech in Arizona last month in which he strongly suggested he would try to deport as many people as possible.
But in August 2012, in just one example of Trump bringing the subject up, he tweeted: “An “extremely credible source” has called my office and told me that @BarackObama’s birth certificate is a fraud”. “The bad news, of course: We’ve got a long way to go to get people at the bottom and in the middle to where they were at the turn of the century”.
Obama was referring to Trump’s admission this week that the president was born in the United States.
“This should not be a close election, but it will be”, Obama said.
When asked if Clinton started the so-called “birther” movement, an idea rejected by fact-checkers, Pence only said, “I’ll let the facts speak for themselves”.
One by one, members tore into Trump, calling him an array of names including “hater”, “bigot” and “racial arsonist”. “We will educate him”.
In recent weeks, the lower-key Trump has engaged in outreach to African-American voters and to women voters, two groups that give him low ratings in part because of involvement with “birther” attacks on Obama.
He also declared birtherism “over” and denied Trump has any responsibility it.
“Even when hateful nonsense is thrown their way, Barack, Michelle, their two attractive daughters have represented our country with class, grace and integrity”, Clinton said. “And you make us all proud to be Americans, too”. In any case, the man who will shortly become a private citizen is capable of boiling, white hot rage, as he demonstrated at a speech before the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation dinner in Washington according to Politico.
USA society is uncomfortable with powerful women and that is why the United States has not yet elected a woman president, President Barack Obama said on Sunday.
After years of fanning false rumors that Obama wasn’t actually born in the United States, Trump declined to answer whether he now believes Obama is a natural-born USA citizen in an interview with the Washington Post this week, as he has done throughout the campaign.
As he did on the campaign trail all last week, Kaine used as props his book with Clinton, “Stronger Together”, and Donald Trump’s book, “Crippled America”, to contrast the campaign’s two visions. I mean it just- I have to say it’s remarkable to me, to be out there with people and hear what they want covered, I’m looking at NBC’s poll this morning, Chuck, and I don’t see this issue anywhere in the top 40. The REAL story is that polls show Trump is now tied with Lyin’ Hillary at 42%. “This is not something where it’s all flash and fizzle”.
