Was I happily surprised! Buchanan's column on <a href="http://townhall.com/columnists/PatBuchanan/2009/07/28/sgt_crowley,_a_cop_in_full?page=2" rel="nofollow">Townhall</a> is very responsible. Buchanan gives Gates and Obama a well-deserved spanking -- but he doesn't try to inflame white anger. Buchanan has been hammering away on 'wise Latina', Frank Ricci, immigration, affirmative action -- but even Buchanan won't touch this Gates-Crowley poison. Of Obama's retraction, he writes: "It was a goodly slice of humble pie the president ate there, but it was a class act." Pat Buchanan, 'Mr. Silent Majority' himself, is more responsible on race than Obama and Gates. As for Deval Patrick -- flush him down the toilet. Patrick's mouth is a biohazard.

I think we need two things: (1) the Supreme Court has to rule on what EXACTLY is an NBC for the purposes of POTUS (I know, I know, fat chance), and (2) a non-partisan, governmental office (maybe on the state level) which MUST verify the eligibility (through a long form BC) of each candidate, before they are even allowed on the ballot in the primaries. It's ludicrous that we have a rule that you must meet A, B, and C in order to be POTUS, but there is no body charged with verifying it. It's a huge loophole - if BO didn't take advantage of it, someone else can in the future.

Obama's COLB is proof of his US citizenship but not proof that he is a natural born citizen. Obama needs to show his long form birth certificate instead of his COLB. a COLB can be issue to any US citizen at any time even though they are not natural born citizens. to add to that, my daughter has a Certificate of Live Birth issued by the US Consulate in Canada. that certificate is proof of her US citizenship but is not proof of being a natural born citizen.

Obama’s COLB is proof of his US citizenship but not proof that he is a natural born citizen.

The Panama Canal Zone during the time of McCain's birth was US sovereign territory. Guam is a US Sovereign Territory, everyone there is natural born citizen. Foreign US military bases are US sovereign territory. US military ships are US sovereign territory, when I was serving on the USS Lincoln, we eveacuated Clark Airbase dependents during the mount pinatubo erruptions, a pregnant woman gave birth on board the Lincoln. that child was born on US Sovereign territory and therefore a natural born citizen. if Obama was born in Hawaii, then there's no problem, show the long form birth certificate. if he was born in Kenya, then he would still be a US citizen since his mother was a US citizen but he is not a natural born citizen. my daughter was born in Canada. She's a US citizen since I am a US citiczen but she's not a natural born citizen and is not eligible to run for president if she wanted to. that's the main difference.

I live in Austin too and Barry and buddy chip just belittled the institutional racism that still exists. Residents of east Austin who wanted to move west were denied sewer permits under earlier city codes.
