Reasonable People Oppose Trump's Campaign

Although Donald Trump says that President Barack Obama has not produced his birth certificate, intelligent, informed people know that he has.  Trump has joined the "birthers" who question President Obama's right to serve as our country's Chief Executive.  These "birther" people would not be questioning Obama's birthplace if his name was John Smith and he was a white man.

More and more people are standing up against the attacks on President Obama.


Idaho State Journal:

They say that you can learn a lot about a person from his enemies, but what does this trifecta of stars — Robert De Niro, Jerry Seinfeld and Charlie Sheen — say about politics and Donald Trump?

The three entertainers have all taken shots recently at Trump, the self-promoting businessman who is considering a run for president. While no one really knows if he is serious about running, the publicity that he has generated, particularly for once-dormant questions about President Barack Obama's citizenship, has become serious enough in a weak Republican field to push Trump into the top tier of GOP hopefuls....

...."It's like a big hustle. It's like being a car salesman," said De Niro, who later said he was referring to Trump. "Don't go out there and say things unless you can back them up. How dare you? That's awful to do. To just go out and speak and say these terrible things? Unless you just wanna get over and get the job. It's crazy."

The article then goes on with Trump saying about De Niro, "...we're not dealing with Albert Einstein...."  Whoa.

Have you noticed that Ohio Republicans that serve in the U.S. House of Representatives are not having their once popular public town hall meetings?  Is it possible they are having the meetings but only for a select group of people?  Are the Republicans hiding from their constituents?

Do you remember when then Republican candidate Steve Stivers (OH-15) refused to sign the pledge to protect Social Security? What will he do to reform eliminate Social Security?  What will Stivers do to reform eliminate Medicare?  When will Stivers address these questions?
