I don't think he started it, but he ran with it for awhile

Trump has ran with many "fake news" stories, so him running around screaming "UNFAIR" is, well....pathetic

Obama's book started it actually

quote:

Barack Obama was a Visiting Law and Government Fellow at the University of Chicago Law School. During his fellowship he began writing his first book, Dreams From My Father. The aspiring author had a literary agency, Acton and Dystel, which prepared a promotional booklet including a brief Obama biography. They printed similar bios for the other 89 authors they represented. Standard practice in the publishing world.

In the bio, Obama is described as “Born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii”. This booklet was first published in Brietbart and verified by Snopes.

No, the Hillary Clinton campaign started it when she was running against Obama for the Dem nomination in 2008.

Loser Clinton's camp started it after Oduma allowed his university year book bio to say he was born in Kenya.

Not according to poli talk but in the real world, yes. He also floated the "ted cruz's dad killed JFK" rumor and the Obama may have been involved the first Orlando massacre. He just appointed a anti-vaccer to lead commission on vaccination.

It would be hilarious if it wasn't so tragic.

wrong on both counts. He was late to the party on the birther movement - The HRC campaign was the original purveyor.

As for a complete fabrication - are you referring to the photo-shopped Certificate of Birth produced by the Obama admin?
