Im sure if the bomb was addressed to someone the original poster liked- then the whole direction of this thread would have been aimed in a totally different direction.
You dont like the Sheriff, we get it.... but to say he sent a bomb to himself really shows how far you are willing to reach to paint your agenda.
The man almost got blown up if it wasnt for someone else checking out the package.
Take your partisan blinders off for one second and 'realize the reality' of the situation.

The Cold Case Posse is merely a publicity stunt. A few months ago they announced they finally had undeniable proof (despite making his claim many times before and just presenting debunked "proof"). This undeniable proof is still forthcoming. If this were a legitimate investigation charges would have been leveled as soon as the proof emerged. So either Arpaio and his posse are frauds or they should be arrested for withholding evidence to a crime. Then there's also the fact that Arpaio spent tax payer money on this pet project which should technically count as fraud.
They have provided "undeniable proof" to my satisfaction that the long form birth certificate released by the White House on 27 April 2011 is a total forgery. I have taken it apart myself in Illustrator and Photoshop. I have tried to reproduce it. Can't be done. It's fake.
For the record, I do not believe Obama was born in Kenya. And I am not a devotee of the natural-born-citizen argument either, the definition of which, has never been clearly established and codified beyond interpretation.
I have, however, always found it odd that he has gone to such great lengths to hide or "seal" certain records that one would reasonably expect to be available to the public given the nature of the public office he sought and now holds.

His college records for one.
Was he admitted as a foreign student using an Indonesian passport?
If I were to make a list of all the documents and photos missing from Obama's self-proclaimed back-story that I would like to see, we'd be here all night.
I would be eager for him to allay all these "kooky" theories and allegations about his origins and the paper trail thereof.?
… courts have even declared Obama a natural born citizen!
Why have you sealed exactly the same records as Obama has? What are you hiding?
Why have you sealed your college records?
Oh dear, you fell for a old April fools joke!

How can you make any judgment regarding the "birth certificate?" It's not the actual hard copy of the certificate. It's merely a digital copy of it.
Except there have been a number of court cases over the years that define a natural born citizen as a citizen by birth. A citizen by birth is anyone born on US soil or anyone born to a parent who is a US citizen. As Obama was born in Hawaii to a US citizen his citizenship status is undeniable.
He has sealed no records.

I have never taken any overt legal steps to protect them beyond what is already provided for by law.
Obama has spent a considerable amount of money with the law firm of Perkins & Coie
One can reasonably assume that A) this representation was not free of charge,
who all but admitted the birth certificate was a fake.
Oh dear, you fell for a old April fools joke!
I fell for nothing.
If he did, he’s not constitutionally qualified to occupy the office he’s now in.
completely failed to address that specific issue

ANKENY v GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF INDIANA - APPEALS COURT OPINION - 11120903 Based upon the language of Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 and the guidance provided by Wong Kim Ark, we conclude that persons born within the borders of the United States are “natural born Citizens” for Article II, Section 1 purposes, regardless of the citizenship of their parents AZ - 2012-03-07 - Allen v Obama C20121317 - ORDER Dismissing Complaint and this precedent fully supports that President Obama is a natural born citizen under the Constitutionand thus qualified to hold the office of President. See United States v. Wong Kim Ark , 169 U.S. 649, 702-03(1898) (addressing U. S. Const. amend. XIV); Ankeny v. Governor of the State of Indiana , 916 N.E.2d 678,684-88 (Ind. App. 2010) (addressing the precise issue). Contrary to Plaintiff’s assertion, Minor v. Happersett ,88 U.S. 162 (1874), does not hold otherwise Charles Tisdale v. Barack Obama, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney (D.C. Cir. 15-June-2012 On January 17, 2012, Charles Tisdale of Virginia brought a civil action before the US District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. In the suit, Tisdale alleged that Barack Obama, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul each had a non-citizen parent, and therefore should be barred from the November 6, 2012, presidential ballot in Virginia. An amicus brief was filed in support of the Plaintiff by attorney Mario Apuzzo. District Judge John A. Gibney, Jr., dismissed the suit with prejudice because the Plaintiff "does not to state a claim upon which relief may be granted." Judge Gibney explained: "It is well settled that those born in the United States are considered natural born citizens."

Because it would not put any issue to rest - birthers hate the fact that a black man is the President - and any bit of paper he produces will not change that fact - look at what happened when he released his short form certificate, birthers whined about that it was not the long form.... when Obama released his long form certificate birthers immediately falsely claimed it was a forgery.
The whole birther nonsense is not about Obama's documentation, it is about a black man being President..

Here is where a court has declared Obama a natural born ciitizen.

Because you have no such information - no previous President produced his birth certificate, no previous President produced his college records, no previous President had to produce any of them, but as soon as the first black President gets elected birthers start demanding all sorts of documents from him.

an affirmation of dual citizenship (at the least) that would certainly disqualify him from eligibility.
We are a sovereign nation and gets to define for itself who is a citizen of the US. Otherwise, Cuba could say that anyone born within 2000 miles of Cuba is a citizen of Cuba, and eliminate anyone from the Southern US ever being elected president of the USA. Or Canada could say that anyone with a Canadian grandparent is a Canadian citizen. (Which they do). The US don't care who other nations claim as their citizens. Other countries have different laws about who is a citizen, and none of them matter to US citizenship. Just because a child is born to two US citizen parents doesn't mean that the child isn't a dual citizen of another country. Some countries consider grandchildren of citizens to be citizens. (Italy, Poland, Canada, Greece, Ireland, for example).

Wrong again, what about James Buchanan and Chester Alan Arthur.....
Anyway, where does the constitution state you cannot be a dual citizen....
