Let Obama prove he really wants "transparency" by releasing his records

If Mr. Obama truly wants government to be open, he can start right here. We are a nation of laws, not men. The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land. Mr. Obama has said the Constitution is "deeply flawed". That statement, together with his failure to provide documentary evidence of his natural born status, raises questions as to whether he is truly qualified to hold the office of president. Let him set the example for transparency by releasing his vault birth certificate, his school records, immigration records, and any other documents that will prove without a shadow of a doubt that he is legally qualified to hold public office.
What strikes me as very telling is that NOT ONE of the Obama apologists offers a REASONED, FACTUAL RESPONSE to the questions that are being raised. All they ever do is ridicule, name-call and try to change the subject. Their response has all the hallmarks of people whose argument is intellectually weak and whose position is ultimately indefensible.
Also very telling is the world view of those such as longshot9999 who posted the "idea" that other issues such as terrorism and energy independence are more important than the "birth certificate" issue. It tells me that these people really don't take the U.S. Constitution seriously enough to insist that our leaders actually abide by it. There is a name for this - it is called LAWLESSNESS.
But we should not be surprised at this. Because Mr. Obama himself has opined that the Constitution, the highest law of the land, is "deeply flawed", it stands to reason that a lawless person will deal with a law which they believe is "deeply flawed" by trying to ignore it altogether.
But the eligibility issue is not going to go away, and we are already seeing events play out in stages just as Mahatma Gandhi predicted. I'd say we in Stage 2 right now:
"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win."
