Glenn Beck fans doubt his take on eligibility: A flashback from Sep 2010

The issue of Obama's birth certificate is key to the multitude of questions that have been raised about whether he is eligible to occupy the Oval Office. The nation's founders, in the Constitution, imposed a special requirement for the person who is president, that of being a "natural born citizen."

Now, is this total irony?! I was perusing through WND's archive of eligibility stories.  In a flashback from September of 2010, we find out that some of Glenn Beck's biggest fans did not go along with Glenn's assessment of the Obama eligibility issue. Oh, did I mention that Rush Limbaugh has just recently faced criticism from his fan base for the same reason?

There has to be a reason why Donald Trump was bold enough to discuss the eligibility issue and seemed to stay popular, if not actually grow in popularity, while Beck and Limbaugh received guff from their own fans for NOT discussing the story! Could that be a clue that the American people actually want to see the proof of Obama's eligibility? You have to wonder. I'm just sayin'...

WASHINGTON – Glenn Beck may pooh-pooh the issue of Barack Obama's presidential eligibility, but some of his most loyal fans are emphatic in demanding, "Where's the Birth Certificate?"

GLENN BECK
On Beck's own website, a thread started today shows those concerned about Obama's unwillingness to document that he is a "natural-born" citizen, as the Constitution requires, running 9-to-1 over those who believe it's a nonissue.

At 2:11 p.m., a reader posted a comment on his website, The Blaze, about Democratic House Majority Whip James Clyburn's warning that, if the GOP takes control of Congress in January, it will issue subpoenas regarding Obama's eligibility.

The original post included a video clip of Beck and guest Dinesh D'Souza dismissing the eligibility issue.

But, within hours, more than 100 comments had been posted, and, according to WND's tally, 45 of those comments questioned Obama's eligibility, and only five supported Beck's position.

The remaining posts commented on Clyburn or other issues.

Why we're talking about race – again ~ By Star Parker

From WorldNetDaily
Star Parker By Star Parker Posted: September 19, 2009 ~ 1:00 am Eastern © 2009 Democrats have lost the health-care debate. It's now months polls have shown that Americans don't want the massive new government controls, regulations, taxes and spending Democrats are pushing. Latest Gallup polling shows 60 percent saying that President Obama's proposal will not expand health coverage without raising taxes on middle class Americans and without affecting the current quality of health care. Forty-three percent approve of how Obama is handling health care, and 52 percent disapprove. You would be hard pressed to find a Democrat or Republican who does not agree that we can improve how we deliver health care. So the logical conclusion we'd expect now from well-intentioned people would be that we go back to square one. We do what Obama promised but never did – have a truly open, bipartisan discussion, with all ideas are on the table, to generate the best possible product for the American people. Why is this not happening? Because it's not about health care. It's about ideology. Despite claims from our Democrat administration that it wants civility, it does not. It wants control. This nation is already torn apart ideologically. In the last four months we've witnessed two cold-blooded ideologically motivated murders. An abortion doctor shot in a church and a pro-life demonstrator murdered in a drive-by shooting in front of a school. There are fewer and fewer "self-evident truths" about which we all agree. The current charade to paint ideological differences with our president as racially motivated dangerously pours gasoline on the burning embers of our differences. [CLICK HERE TO READ MORE]
