Why is it racist to demand a birth certificate from someone who in his college's material was listed as born in Kenya?

Obama's BC was not forged, despite what some racists claim.
First off, I'm not claiming that Obama isn't a U.S. citizen, but in all fairness... the initial birth certificate released on the White House website was a forgery. Some idiot uploaded it without using "flatten image" and the layers were clearly editable when opened up in program like Adobe Illustrator.
I'll never understand why the White House added so much fuel to the "birther" fire by releasing such a ridiculous file.
Also note that this post has absolutely nothing to do with race, and everything to do with some negligent/prankster staffer, and with how programs like Adobe Illustrator function. You simply don't get editable layers like that with an authentic scan/photocopy.

How is it beyond proven, where's the proof?
Two of Hillary's operatives were selling the story in 08.
They shopped the story with news outlets, one who went
on record and wrote about it.
Two supporters of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign reportedly shared the claim that then-rival Barack Obama was not born in the United States and thus was not eligible to be president.
One was a volunteer in Iowa, who was fired, Clinton’s former campaign manager said Friday. The other was Clinton confidant Sidney Blumenthal, according to a former McClatchy Washington Bureau chief.

You are aware that it is beyond proven that Hillary Clinton and her campaign in 2008 were the ones who started the Birther story to begin with, to spread fear and paranoia?
In fact, there were several people publicly pushing the theory, which was repeated extensively on conservative news outlets. There were the two Clinton supporters, but there is no evidence that Clinton herself or her campaign spread the story.

The story was pushed by Sidney Bluementhal, who was
and still is on a Clinton payroll. LOL....
No "evidence"...its not a court trial...
Considering the majority of lawyers agree he shouldn't release his taxes while under audit I'm sure he doesn't care how you feel.

He also said that he has been advised by counsel to not release returns when they are still under audit. Trump is audited EVERY YEAR and they are ongoing, i.e.: Not timely concluded within a year.
Actually, according to the letter from his attorneys, his returns have been under examination. While an audit can be considered an examination, it is a very specific term. One which his attorney did not use.

Trump has attorneys on retainer. He needs to because he likes to sue people. The claim that an "audit" is a reason to not release his tax returns (as he repeatedly said he would) is specious.
I don't know if you have ever found yourself in a position where you had tBut io retain an attorney, but if you do so you pretty much are obligated to do what they say,

You said Hillary was involved in the birther debacle and provided a link to support your position. Your link states the opposite. Why would you provide a link that contradicts your assertion?

Dot 1. Hillary Clinton pays Sidney Blumenthal.
Dot 2. Blumenthal pushed the birther issue according to first hand witness.
Dot 3. News from the day, Chris Matthews calls Hillary Clinton on claiming
Obama was born in Indonesia.
The interview may be at an IRS office (office audit) or at the taxpayer's home, place of business, or accountant's office (field audit).
Chapter 4 of the "IRS Manual," "Examining Process," includes processes for examining tax returns to select which ones should be audited. It also includes guidelines for auditors when examining information during an actual audit. The IRS manual also uses the term "tax examination" along with other words to instruct employees on procedures for specific activities. Terms such as "gift tax examination" and "employment tax examination" are commonly found.
Are you being obtuse intentionally?
