I think the birther issue was a convenient subject for political prowess with the Tea Party. I think he owes President Obama an apology if he is sincere in stating President Obama was born in the USA.
Let's take a closer look (click here) at that birth certificate. @BarackObama was described in 2003 as being "born in Kenya." http://bit.ly/Klc9Uu

An 'extremely credible source' has called my office and told me that @BarackObama's birth certificate is a fraud.

Why do the Republicans keep apologizing on the so called "birther" issue? No more apologies--take the offensive!

How amazing, the State Health Director who verified copies of Obama’s “birth certificate” died in plane crash today. All others lived

Okay, then.

The endorsements Donald Trump speaks of are old world "W" hacks. Anyone looking for a job?

Dozens of former appointees (click here) of the administration of former President George W. Bush announced their support for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on Sunday in a bid for party unity ahead of Trump's first debate with Democrat Hillary Clinton.
The Bush family and many connected to it remain cool to Trump. Former President George H.W. Bush reportedly plans to vote for Clinton in the Nov. 8 election while his Jeb, a former Trump rival, has said he will not vote for Clinton or Trump. George W. Bush has avoided the presidential race while helping raise money for Republican congressional candidates.
But a number of former Bush appointees have decided to endorse Trump, the New York businessman who is in a tight race with Clinton and is to debate her one-one-one at Hofstra University on Monday night in Hempstead, New York.
Fifty former Bush appointees were on a list of people described as founding members of a coalition of Bush alumni supportive of Trump. The list was provided by a Republican official close to the Trump campaign....
Those seeking jobs needs to realize Donald Trump did not take monies from cronies.

The oil belonged to the country where the wells are. What Donald Trump is stating is using the USA military for the purpose of taking over the natural resources of a foreign country. That is Wall Street. War for profit are illegal by any standard globally.

...We searched newspaper articles (click here) and television transcripts from 2002 and 2003 amid the debate leading up to the Iraq War. We didn’t find any examples of Trump unequivocally denouncing the war until a year after the war began.
Trump’s comments
Most damning to Trump’s claim is a September 2002 interview in which Trump said he supported the Iraq invasion.
Shock jock Howard Stern asked Trump if he supported the looming invasion.
Trump responded, "Yeah, I guess so."
This goes directly against Trump’s claims that he criticized the rush to war before the war began.
On Jan. 28, 2003, just under three months before the invasion, Fox News’ Neil Cavuto asked Trump whether President George W. Bush should be more focused on Iraq or the economy.
Speaking of Iraq, Trump said, "Well, he has either got to do something or not do something, perhaps, because perhaps shouldn't be doing it yet and perhaps we should be waiting for the United Nations, you know. He's under a lot of pressure. I think he's doing a very good job. But, of course, if you look at the polls, a lot of people are getting a little tired. I think the Iraqi situation is a problem. And I think the economy is a much bigger problem as far as the president is concerned."...

...The platoons of journalists (click here) who’ve examined this question have never excavated a corroborating transcript from the “Hannity & Colmes” show (its name before the Alan Colmes left the show in early 2009). So did Trump stake out this anti-Iraq-War position in private discussions with Hannity? We’ve asked the Trump campaign about that and are awaiting an answer. We’ve also asked Fox News about any input from Hannity himself:...
