Please , Please use the correct term as demanded by the Constitution...Natural Born Citizen. It makes many arguments by the callers silly! Why not clarify Natural Born Citizen, Citizen, and Naturalized Citizen? These terms mean different things and not all are interchangeable. Your audience could benefit from this lesson.
FYI John McCain was not born on base but at the local hospital and that is why the need for a "law" clarifying the intentions of the Constitution and Founding Fathers . It was done! ( There is evidence that Obama sponsored an addition to that bill that would have covered him...it was not passed)
You have made many statements showing a lack of homework on the issue....Please do it!
FYI things I believe:
There has been no court case that was not dismissed before "findings of fact". All were determined to have flaws or the " Not having Standing" to bring the action.
If his father is Obama senior and mother was a minor he was a British citizen at birth...Just being born on US soil does not always make one a citizen. ( My research shows that the Founding Fathers intended there to be no conflict of interest.)
Laws have changed since that time and some matter. Dual citizenship was NOT allowed at the time.
So many statements are made, and left to stand as fact, that this entire issue can not really be discussed with clarity. School, adoption, passport records, scholarship applications, and so many more issues are still cloudy to me. Did Nancy Pelosi actually send a different certification for placement on the ballot to the two states who require certification of birth status? This is just one of hundreds of questions I am still wondering about. In this age of fast communication and false copies a court case with a full disclosure is the only hope to know the partial truth, at least.
I am not blaming you, just informing you of a few things I have learned in hours and hours or research and discarding often made comments as wrong. Oh how I would like for some to be correct!
Our local politicians issued a statement saying something to the effect that the public was informed of the questions and voted for him anyway so...they would be no part of overturning the vote of the people. That was supposed to be the end of it?
I believe his lack of ethics as well as felony statements made by Obama over the years, as to citizenship and legal name, as well as his use of multiple social security numbers and loss of Law License make much better facts to prove his lack of eligibility for the Office of President.
I no longer think the country can survive the monetary crisis to come.....I want to come back in 25 years and read the historians view of all this!
Thanks for listening.

An historic moment in politics!!! For the first time in our country's history, a politician has admitted a mistake and says he wishes he could have his vote back!!! WOW!!! Attaboy, Ritch! Whatever the issue was doesn't matter, the statement was truly refreshing! God Bless, Skip
You know that I am an X-dem turn Independent. I agree with your callers and say this is a distraction. I also believe that there are serious questions on where Obama was born. I believe also that if there was not a question, Obama would lay out the paperwork.

Nice to see some interest in this, finally... Info has been out there even during the 2008 campaign about Soetoro not meeting the qualification requirements to be president.

Robert is confusing the issue of citizenship with the Constitutional requirement to be "a natural born Citizen" in order to be eligible to be president or vice president - Article II, Sec 1, para 6. (This is not a requirement for any other office - Senate, House etc.; these lower offices only require citizenship.)
Unfortunate Conception
To my “Birther” friends:
In response to those of you who, from time to time, send me info on a “Certified Birth Certificate” from Kenya and similar “evidence” of P-BO’s extra-American origin, it pains me to say that I think we're whippin' a dead horse here. I believe there's a 50/50 chance he was born in
At least as disturbing as the questions surrounding his birth, if not more so, is the mysterious absence of any substantive documentation from his college years. With all previous presidents, their respective alma-maters were all too anxious to brag on the academic achievements of their former students and alumni as it tended to enhance the prestige of the institution, as well as to provide promotional benefit (“Chance of a lifetime – come to our school and you, too, may become president! Act now – opportunities are limited!”). Instead, there’s an empty stretch in his life that makes Nixon’s “18 minute gap” look like a technical glitch attributable to a low-bid government tape recorder.
Assuming someone had incontrovertible proof of his Kenyan birth, what could be done with it? The man has been sworn in as President of the

Bill, what's the outfit that's running the hokey, fraudulent pro-Altman ads? [Can't catch the ID; they ID themselves too quickly - for a really, really good reason.]
I haven't heard such a high level of lying since Altman guaranteed that we (the county) could, you know, just abrogate Certificates of Participation -- in order to "sell" the monstrosity in Viera.
He's the only guest I attacked(verbally, of course - dammit) during 10 years of Live Tuesday Programs at Cablevision, on Magnolia. [George Thompson said, "Dan! You can't do that"..."Like hell," sed I.]

Bill:
You asked me to get back to you after I had my trial. Yesterday, Judge McKibben granted my Motion For Involuntary Dismissal on basic evidentiary grounds. Very simply, the system authorized and implemented by the legislature does not comply with the Florida Evidence Code on the issue of hearsay.
If Judge McKibben had denied my Motion, I was prepared to mount a defense on the merits because of the short yellowing issue. The City of Cocoa Beach has intentionally shortened the yellow light to an average of from under 3 seconds to as low as 2.5 seconds, which gives the motoring public over the age of 55 (elderly) between 0.5 and 0.7 seconds to stop. Younger drivers are also prejudiced.
These times are not in compliance with FDOT standards.
We are filing suit against the City next week requesting an injunction and refund of all fines paid, which right now is just under 1 million dollars.
Let me know when you want me to come on your show.
Truly yours,

HOA proposing rule to fine parents if kids play outside

EDGEWATER,
Part of rule number 4 states that "children will not be permitted to run, play tag, or act boisterously on the association property."
The proposed rules also say no playing in common areas or parking lots including the driveway. Some families who live there are outraged.
Five-year-old Maddox rode his bike around the cul-de-sac in front of his mother’s town home Sunday afternoon. If some members of the Persimmon Place HOA have their way, by this time next month, his mother would be fined for this. "I don't think you should take the right way to ride your bike and play kickball and yell and scream outside," said Keller.
But according to the new set of recommended rules and regulations for the association, that's exactly what would happen. Rule number four starts by saying children will be under the direct control of adults at all times. "Children will not be allowed to run, play tag, or act boisterously on the association property". It also states that there is no playing in common areas or parking lots including driveways and no playing in front of the rear of units. "As you can see everything is pretty much common areas except that 3 feet we own," said Keller.
FOX 35 stopped by one of the HOA board members homes asked why they're trying to stop kids from playing outside. All she would tell us. "It's been blown out of proportion," said one board member. Then she told us to leave the property. If the new rules are passed, the proposed fine for a child caught playing in the drive or in the common areas is $100. "They're going to have to get that money out of me because that's not going to happen. They can ticket me all they want. My kids are going to play," said neighbor Shonna Mayer.
All homeowners will get their chance to vote on these new rules on April 27. Over 50 percent, which would be more than 25 homeowners would have to vote in favor for this to pass. They've contacted a lawyer who is researching the legalities of this and they plan on fighting this.
I've been so disappointed to miss your show most of this week. I'm attempting to get our new house in order and have barely had time to breath.. and I can't find my clock radio to save my life... I'm convinced it's hiding in a box somewhere with my hair brush and my daughter's social studies homework...
I really like the column this week and your nephews take on the Koran burning. Yes, we CAN do these things because we have that freedom here, but SHOULD we? Common sense did not prevail in this instance and I fear for the lives our military men and women not only overseas but right here in our own country.
The husband of my very best friend is in the Army stationed at
God Bless your nephew and hope he makes it home safe. I know your son is considering a similar path. It's incredibly honorable but incredibly difficult. I wish him luck in his decision.
Enjoy your weekend Bill! It was great to meet you the other night.
Have a Great Day!

I too think that those that want to take a stand should go where the issue is an issue.

Those like Jones don’t have the courage!
They like the fact that our men & women fight over there for the rights of those back here at home.
They are just looking for the attention; they are not willing to die for anything.

Have a great day!

"Success" is more than hobnobbing with celebrities and accumulating
wealth. Much of Trump's wealth was acquired at the expense of all the
people he "stuck it to" each time he declared bankruptcy without ever
missing a beat in his extravagant lifestyle. He's the embodiment of
the Democrat's definition of "Republican". If he got the nomination
they'd have a field day, and I'd have to "waste" my vote on a write-in.

And the planners and CIty Managers have done a great job on property values. If I were them I'd ask for a refund on my college degree. Their philosophoy of micro- managing what individual's do with their property is diminishes the value of property, and it is begining to take its toll.
When government makes people dependent on them, the people will demand the government maintain what they have been providing, and when government can't do it, people blame the government. This is why government should not make people dependent. When you depend on yourself who's to blame when you fail. Fredrick Bastiat pegged it senturies ago.

The State spending cut is not redistributing wealth. They have a true multi-billion dollar shortfall and have to make cuts.
Unfortunately for years of Charlie Crist they depleted trust funds and reserves. They should have begun cutting in 2006, not 2011.
Clearly much of this must be due to balancing the budget because otherwise they’d finish with the same multi-billion deficit.
Note as well the ‘budget’ of $66 billion or so includes a lot of Federal money transfers and interfund transfers. The $3 billion is not really a loss of 5%, but more closer to a 10% reduction.

OK Bill. Here is how I really feel. Like Earl says you have the right to be wrong and wrong you are!!! I could go on and on with why but feel it's best you view these you tubes just to straighten your thinking. Also, could you do me a favor and see that Earl gets these and tell him Rick is with him 100% when it comes to these monsters. That said please go to www.americandigest.org and watch the 2 10 minute you tubes that Anne Bernhardt taped. One video breaks down the Koran and the deals with Lindsey Grahams comment to Bob Shafer last Sunday. When she's done you just my ask where has this girl been.
PS, I stand with her and Terry Jones.........
I am not going to be able to make the meeting. citizen input is near the end and Kristine told me that there is an item on the agenda that will take a lot time. She told me that she will bring it up in new business I guess.

I listened to the exchanges this morning and would like to note several observations
1. The disturbing lack of understanding of the religion of Islam's goals. Which to be brief is - Kill the infidels. There is no compromise as this is a violation of the Islamic law. To moderate the laws of Islam is apostasy, punishable by death. Thus the non-existence of "Moderate" or aka "Good" Muslims. The "Good" Muslims as far as Islam is concerned are the "Fundamentalists" which by some opposite day definition we have be sucked into calling "Radical Islamists" The true radicals are the ones who believe that they don't have to follow the Koran word for word.
2.That the Pastor of the church is not "Acting very Christian". First and foremost the Pastor must protect his flock from accepting pagan religious teachings, which apparently many so called pastors are doing now by shirking their religious instructions. Islam is a pagan religion on par with Zeus worship. The god Allah is not the god of Abraham nor of Jesus. To accept this is blasphemy to the Christian faith. It is every pastors obligation to teach this.
3.Making things harder for the military. What is making things harder for the military is that we are not fighting a war as a war. We are fighting an enemy whose ultimate goal is our total destruction. And they use every means at their disposal. Which include pumped up outrage for every offence. And we acquiesce at every turn little by little.
And every time we capitulate their resolve grows stronger as they consider us weak. Note the increased violence as the Weak One now in office has cowed at every turn

Enjoy your program and tried without success to get on air today to make the following comments:
1. The Koran teaches the killing of Christians, Jews and nonbelievers. Earlier passages promote peaceful relations, but these passages are abrogated by later passages advocating killing of all nonbelievers.
2. The Gainsville Pastor is either of great courage or crazy because he is risking his life. I think his act is symbolic drawing attention to the evil in this book and in this religion. IE the killings in response.
3. I agree with Bruce our most immediate threat is the DEBT that is taking down our country and destroying our economy. But after that the next threat to our country is Islam. It won't happen in our lifetime but Islam will not relent until we are destroyed, most likely from within.
4. I don't agree with Bruce that the solution is Isolation and withdrawing as a world leader. He is being intimidated by Muslin Terrorism just like the PC Correctness crowd. We have to define and understand Islam for what it is. We have discourage it here and around the world and fight it when we have to.
200 years from now the Gainsville Pastor may be compared to the Boston Tea Partys as some one who stood up against evil and performed an act in defense of our freedoms.

I've tried, but I don't know how to find the real answer. What is
the total non-governmental employment number? Unemployment, number or
percentage, tells us the percent of unemployed actively looking. But
total private sector employment will tell us where we really stand.
If that number is not growing faster than our working age population,
we're going deeper in the hole. If it is growing faster, good.
As for that "Pastor". There ain't no cure for stupid. But (!), I
have a real problem with people so thin skinned and poorly founded
their theology that an insult becomes a justification for murder.
Summary: stupid is bad. Murder is worse.
