Poll shocker! Majority wants Obama records!
Poll shocker! Majority wants Obama records
Maintain president should be chased from office if he doesn't come clean
At a time when Barack Obama is getting heat for stonewalling information about an alleged administration bribery scandal, a new poll shows more Americans than ever suspect the president is hiding information about his own background and want him to come clean.
Questions about Obama's eligibility to be president, exacerbated by his refusal to answer questions, release ordinary background documentation and his extraordinary legal maneuvers to keep his background hidden, have been on the radar of a number of top-level investigative reporters and news organizations since before his election.
Essentially, while the Constitution requires a president to be a "natural born citizen," none of the questions about Obama's qualifications – or lack thereof – under that requirement have yet been answered.
"Simply put, this question about Obama's legitimacy as president is undermining everything he does in the minds of millions of Americas," wrote Fritz Wenzel of Wenzel Strategies in an analysis of his results.
"Our latest polling shows a majority of Americans – 55 percent – want Obama to release all records relating to his childhood and his education, including college records, Harvard Law School papers, passport records, travel records, and other similar documentation," he said.
"Asked what should be done should it be found that Obama does not meet the qualifications to be president, 59 percent said he should be removed from office, and 35 percent said all bills signed into law by Obama should be repealed," he said.
The poll said when asked about whether Obama's background documentation – the school records, birth records and others – should be released, the 55 percent who said yes included more than 82 percent of the GOP, 55 percent of independents and nearly 28 percent of Democrats.
Further, another 17.1 percent of Americans said Obama should release some of his documentation, making it nearly three in four Americans who want the president to unlock the steel door on some or all of his background information.
Despite his campaign promises of transparency while in office, there has been no shortage of disputes over secrecy in the Obama administration. He's already argued in court for more secrecy in the White House, claimed his work is "privileged" and apparently got rid of an inspector general who was applying heat to a friend.
The survey indicates Obama's orchestrated efforts to marginalize "birthers" who are raising questions about him and his background have failed totally. The fact that only 65 percent of the members of his own party will agree that he's been transparent is a "red flag," the analysis said.
"When Barack Obama was campaigning for the U.S. presidency, he promised one of the most open and transparent administrations in the history of the country. Sixteen months into his term, a majority of Americans believe he has failed. That a majority of adults nationwide – 56 percent – said he has not run an open administration is a stern rebuke because there is so much power invested in the office of the presidency," said Wenzel.
"Forget that any modern president would have trouble standing up to a comparison with George Washington and other early presidents when it comes to honesty and integrity, Obama has taken steps throughout his administration that appear secretive," he said.
"Once elected, he appointed dozens of so-called 'czars' to oversee various parts of the federal government, which are extra-constitutional in that there is no provision for congressional approval of such appointees. To further complicate things, we have seen a flood of legislation that would make landmark changes to American society, all pushed by the Obama administration before congressional lawmakers had a chance to even read the bills," Wenzel noted.
"Then, when it was clear the public was displeased with the direction in which Washington was moving under Democratic party rule, President Obama ignored the national clamor to slow down. Instead, he pushed ahead with an even more aggressive agenda, even as voters rejected his agenda wherever they had the chance – in such Democratic strongholds as New Jersey and Massachusetts," he continued.
The opinion from only two-thirds of Democrats that Obama has been "open and transparent" is a "flashing red danger signal, but it is unclear the Obama administration is paying attention to such things," Wenzel said.
The fundamental question of his eligibility originally came up during his campaign.
"This is an issue that … is easily put to rest once and for all by his release of his long-form birth certificate," Wenzel said. "His refusal to do so has fed the idea that he has something to hide. Americans aren't asking him to prove a negative here – that he didn't do something illegal – but rather are simply asking that he prove a positive: that he was born on American soil.
"When required, every American citizen produces their birth certificate for a variety of reasons, and it is no big deal. This is why Obama's refusal to produce his is so baffling – and so troubling – to so many people," he said.
Asked specifically if Americans believe Obama was born in the U.S. to two U.S. citizens – one accepted definition of a "natural born citizen," as required by the U.S. Constitution for a president – only 38 percent said yes.
Fifty-two percent agreed Obama is hiding something by refusing to release his documentation.
"Asked specifically about their beliefs about the place of Obama's birth, 39 percent said they suspect he was not born in the United States. This belies the efforts of the Obama administration to paint so-called 'birthers' as a right-wing fringe group. Even among Democrats, nearly one in four – 22 percent – said they either suspect he was not born in the U.S. or that they are not sure on the question," Wenzel said.
WND columnist David Limbaugh said even the "liberal New York Times has begun to notice" that Obama "is still playing hide-and-seek with the press."
"Not having a genuine news conference since July would be remarkable for the least transparent administration, let alone one that made openness a signature campaign issue," he wrote just days ago.
Likewise, WND founder and CEO Joseph Farah has noted Obama's secrecy in connection to the developing case of Rep. Joe Sestak, D-Pa.
Sestak has reported he was offered a job in the Obama administration in exchange for dropping out of the Pennsylvania senatorial primary race against Sen. Arlen Specter.
"If he's telling the truth, and can prove it, a very serious crime has been committed by someone in the Obama administration – one that could lead right to the president's door," he wrote.
"Of course, this calls for an independent investigation. A probe of this kind cannot be directed by anyone within the Obama administration. It cannot be conducted by the Democratic Congress in a critical election year. It requires the appointment of a special counsel with full subpoena power. It also requires some transparency and answers from a regime that has pledged to be the most open administration in history."

Wild Thing's comment........
It keeps getting LOUDER and LOUDER! Drop by drop, the water wears away the stone.
I don't know when, but I truly believe Obama is going down...you can’t keep the kind of secrets that he has about his life forever hidden.
Please note this:
In an interview with Physicist Thomas Fife and Geopolitical Analyst, Jeff Nyquist
Physicist claims he was told in 1992 'The USA will have a black, Soviet agent as president soon'
The KGB infiltration into American politics goes back many years and it is DEEPER than you all think.

The First Time I Heard of Barack
During the period of roughly February 1992 to mid 1994, I was making frequent trips to Moscow, Russia, in the process of starting a software development joint-venture company with some people from the Russian scientific community.
One of the men in charge on the Russian side was named V. M.; he had a wife named T.M.
V. was a level-headed scientist while his wife was rather deeply committed to the losing Communist cause – a cause she obviously was not abandoning.
One evening, during a trip early in 1992, the American half of our venture were invited to V. & T.’s Moscow flat as we were about to return to the States. The party went well and we had the normal dinner discussions.
As the evening wore on, T. developed a decidedly rough anti-American edge – one her husband tried to quietly rein in.
The bottom line of the tirade she started against the United States went something like this:
“You Americans always like to think that you have the perfect government and your people are always so perfect. Well then, why haven’t you had a woman president by now? You had a chance to vote for a woman vice-president and you didn’t do it.”
The general response went something along the lines that you don’t vote for someone just because of their sex. Besides, you don’t vote for vice-president, but the president and vice-president as a ticket.
“Well, I think you are going to be surprised when you get a black president very soon.”
The consensus we expressed was that we didn’t think there was anything innately barring that. The right person at the right time and sure, America would try to vote for the right person, be he or she black or not.
“What if I told you that you will have a black president very soon and he will be a Communist?”
The out-of-the-blue remark was met by our stares. She continued, “Well, you will; and he will be a Communist.”
It was then that the husband unsuccessfully tried to change the subject; but she was on a roll and would have nothing of it. One of us asked, “It sounds like you know something we don’t know.”
“Yes, it is true. This is not some idle talk. He is already born and he is educated and being groomed to be president right now. You will be impressed to know that he has gone to the best schools of Presidents. He is what you call “Ivy League”. You don’t believe me, but he is real and I even know his name. His name is Barack. His mother is white and American and his father is black from Africa. That’s right, a chocolate baby! And he’s going to be your President.”
She became more and more smug as she presented her stream of detailed knowledge and predictions so matter-of-factly – as though all were foregone conclusions. “It’s all been thought out. His father is not an American black so he won’t have that social slave stigma. He is intelligent and he is half white and has been raised from the cradle to be an atheist and a Communist. He’s gone to the finest schools. He is being guided every step of the way and he will be irresistible to America.”
We sat there not knowing what to say. She was obviously very happy that the Communists were doing this and that it would somehow be a thumbing of their collective noses at America: they would give us a black president and he’d be a Communist to boot. She made it quite obvious that she thought that this was going to breathe new life into world Communism. From this and other conversations with her, she always asserted that Communism was far from dead.
She was full of little details about him that she was eager to relate. I thought that maybe she was trying to show off that this truly was a real person and not just hot air.
She rattled off a complete litany. He was from Hawaii. He went to school in California. He lived in Chicago. He was soon to be elected to the legislature. “Have no doubt: he is one of us, a Soviet.”
At one point, she related some sort of San Francisco connection, but I didn’t understand what the point was and don’t recall much about that. I was just left with the notion that she considered the city to be some sort of a center for their activity here.
Since I had dabbled in languages, I knew a smattering of Arabic. I made a comment: “If I remember correctly, ‘Barack’ comes from the Arabic word for ‘Blessing.’ That seems to be an odd name for an American.” She replied quickly, “Yes. It is ‘African’”, she insisted, “and he will be a blessing for world Communism. We will regain our strength and become the number one power in the world.”
She continued with something to the effect that America was at the same time the great hope and the great obstacle for Communism. America would have to be converted to Communism and Barack was going to pave the way.
So, what does this conversation from 1992 prove?
Well, it’s definitely anecdotal. It doesn’t prove that Obama has had Soviet Communist training nor that he was groomed to be the first black American president, but it does show one thing that I think is very important. It shows that Soviet Russian Communists knew of Barack from a very early date. It also shows that they truly believed among themselves that he was raised and groomed Communist to pave the way for their future. This report on Barack came personally to me from one of them long before America knew he existed.
Although I had never before heard of him, at the time of this conversation Obama was 30+ years old and was obviously tested enough that he was their anticipated rising star.
* Obama ignored requests for his records/financing and transcripts from Occidental College, where he studied for two years before transferring to Columbia University.
* Obama’s campaign refused to give Columbia, where he earned an undergraduate degree in political science, permission to release his transcripts.
The New York Times states: “Obama has declined repeated requests to talk about New York years, release ANY Columbia transcripts or even identify even a single fellow student, roommate, co-worker or friend from those years” Oct 30,2007
New York Sun states “The Obama campaign has refused to release his college transcript, despite an academic career that led him to Harvard Law School and, later, to a lecturing position at the University of Chicago, The shroud surrounding his experience at Columbia contrasts with that of other major party nominees since 2000, all whom have eventually released information about their college performance or seen it leaked to the public.” September 2008.
* Obama is said to have written a major thesis in his senior year on Soviet nuclear disarmament. On July 24, 2008, the Obama administration told NBC News Obama was unable to release copies of his thesis paper. “We do not have a copy of the course paper you requested and neither does Columbia University,” Obama spokesman Ben LaBolt said.
* Obama ignored request to release records from his time at Harvard Law School, nor his LSAT scores merited admissions because according to Politico, Obama’s name does not appear on any legal scholarships during his time at Harvard. His campaign reportedly said his Harvard education was a product of hard work and student loans. Obama graduated magna cum laude in 1991.
* Obama spokesperson said the Obama didn’t write any articles for the Review, but he did leave behind numerous case analysis and notes” “A search of the HeinOnline database of law journals turns up exactly nothing credited to Obama in any law review anywhere at any time.” Susan Estrich, the first female president of the Review who served 14 years earlier, said Obama must have had something published that year, even if his campaign denied it.
* Obama did not agree to the release of his application to the Illinois State Bar
* Obama did not release his client list as an attorney or his billing records. He maintained that he performed only a few hours of legal work for a nonprofit organization with ties to Tony Rezko, the Chicago businessman convicted of fraud in June 2008
* Obama refused to offer his official papers as a state legislator in Illinois. Nor did he produce correspondence, such as his schedules of appointments or letters from lobbyists, from his days in the Illinois state Senate.
* Obama released just one brief two paragraph document detailing his personal health.
* During the presidential campaign, McCain’s campaign released a full list of all online donors. Obama’s campaign still has not released the names of those who donated at least one-third of the $750 million he raised.

Seems like he has had enough time to conterfit any of the info he is hiding. Guess too many people know the truth.

If any of this is true then there is no way he was born in any State in the Union. Then every democrat twit, these useful idiots doing his bidding are just as guilty and complicit and the gallows all around. Eddie's had this nailed all along.

Mark and Dave thank you so much.
I never knew some of this in the post above, I am glad there are people out there that won't let this go. It is so important and could change all Obama has done so far in office if it would just be an issue for the left like it is with all of us.

Wish I knew how to put up a side by side of Obama and Musollini, sure seems like Barry has the look down pat.
