Trump: Going For Broke

In a previous post I made reference to the feeling conservatives (seem to) harbor of being lepers confined to a leper colony. It is an analogy that deserves expanding. Lepers are universally shunned. Hell, they even shun themselves!

It has been noted that lepers have an unusually strong sex drive. They tend to lust after the skin-deep beautifully ‘perfect’ people. In today’s (or any) climate, it is easiest for them to hide their infirmity to make themselves attractive to the objects of their raging desire. Sometimes the ploy goes awry and they end up romancing one of their own. Washington, Lincoln and Reagan were such creatures. They managed to transcend their disease. Donald Trump could be next.

Don Trump is no dummy. He’s serious about becoming President of the United States. As such, he’s reaching for what has become somewhat of a Holy Grail: Obama’s birth certificate.

This has now attained a status equal in magnitude to what just a few years ago ‘finding Osama bin Laden’ was. Whether or not bin Laden ever really existed (or was just a CIA hologram construct) was never the issue. Similarly, Trump is making no promises as to what Obama’s birth certificate might actually show. Just cracking the case would instantly make him the Republican frontrunner to take on Obama, the entire Democrat establishment, and the media in 2012.

While most pundits have already put the issue behind them, reasoning that just by virtue of Obama having been sworn in as the 44th U.S. president, he is legitimate; it nevertheless remains a hot button issue for voters. They are consumed by the mystery overhang, the solution to which should be obvious, but instead grows murkier by the day. It is perhaps understandable that the media – left or right – should focus primarily on the upcoming elections. This, after all, is familiar territory for them, while the other is practically unthinkable.

To the media, it’d be like the Israelis investigating whether or not the school bus driver – whose vehicle got hit by a Palestinian rocket – had a valid license or not. Even if he didn’t, what would it matter in the larger scheme of things?

Speculation abounds as to just what Obama’s birth certificate would show – if there ever was one. It is assumed that every human being must have such a document. I’ll bet you, I could round up 10 people anywhere in India in mere moments that are quite without. Not so in the U.S. I’m told.

If I had to guess, I’d say Obama’s birth certificate (if it exists) is safely locked away in George Soros’ personal safe.
