Why would I wonder? Because he has a name that's not "American"? Because he wasn't white? Lots of people in my life who have been born and raised in the USA have different names or look different.

You just assumed he was a citizen cause he's black and has a funny name..?? 😕

No. I assumed he was a citizen because he was in the Senate, and while you don't need to be a citizen to be a senator, I'm sure place of birth is identified and likely verified by the government at that time.
Hell... He had to have a passport... That states his place of birth.
Hasn't that been sufficient for every other politician before him?
Hell... I don't recall the birthers demanding to see Trump's birth certificate....

Birther = Racist? Seems a stretch. I never thought it was an issue to me, but I can easily imagine that a decidedly non-racist individual who had seeds of doubt shown about his citizenship might fall into the birther camp.

Are minorities who demand Trump's tax returns also racist?

I hadn't thought about it before, but the birth certificate request might be an even more sensible 'ask' than tax returns. At least the Constitution demands a citizenship requirement....I missed any mention of a tax return requirement

It's about consistency dtseig.
1- the birth certificate was never a thing until Obama. No one cared.
2- Obama's mother was a US citizen. So there's no real reason why a birth certificate would be necessary to prove his citizenship and qualification for president.
3- there is a precedent already for tax returns. Asking for Trump's is asking him to provide equal information prior presidents did.

If every other president had been subject to the same scrutiny, the same bizarre refusal to accept actual evidence when provided... I wouldn't say they were. But strangely they haven't asked for the same information from trump.

No, you didn't miss it.

It doesn't exist. Some reason along the way candidates felt the need to appear transparent and want the "common folk" to respect them so they let you look at their tax returns.

I believe a consistent racist would in fact be an equal opportunity racist...

Carry on.

Wow, you got a "HeHe" out of victor... but I'm not impressed.

If he would have threw out an "lol" and got frank triggered, then that would have been impressive!

Sigh... There isn't enough irony in the world for this thread.

If you think people get called racist for just opposing Obama then you're an idiot. If you think birthers aren't racist... You're an idiot...

You've got so much irony going on right there that you probably won't sh*t for days.
