#19, it says nothing about those who make their living in the gambling business. It says professional gamblers; the casino owners are not gambling.

After learning in Sanhdrin that why those who make a living in the gambling business aren’t fit to give ‘edut, I wondered whether today’s gamblers are shayakh. Mr. Root in this article proved that they are, or at least he is.

I for one see no issue in revealing the presidents past. What’s the point in bringing up issues that don’t make the policy of the land? Romney is actually smart for not bringing up issues that are nothing more then side tracks. Let not be sidetracked by this stupidity.

Romney should be careful playing tit-for-tat.

What if Obama has nothing to hide but he has built up this image that he does and they Romney blow-hardedly says “i’ll show my tax returns if he shows his transcripts” and then Obama presents a relatively benign college transcript with only days left — what’s Romney’s next move? He’ll disclose his ostentatious wealth to the class sensitive American public?? During a recession? With this much unemployment??
just sayin… be careful with what you wish for.

This is by far the STUPIDEST article every written. Full of conjecture, innuendo, self aggrandizement and pure stupidity. And I’m not a supporter of Obama…

Here are some problems off the bat!

1) call Columbia – and confirm that Obama was a student — that’s what employers do.
2) What does switching citizenship mean????? That’s not a real concept!!! I’m a dual citizen what button do I push to switch? and when do I need to push it?
2b) all those who claim to know citizenship policy of foreign countries (I assume your wikipedia skills are mad, but, you need to show that this was the case 30+ years ago)
3) You can’t compare a 4 year academic transcript with years of tax returns — you are grasping at straws here!

#11, a minor can’t renounce his citizenship; he doesn’t have the capacity to understand what it would mean. 0bama may have been a dual citizen, and may still be one, but it makes no difference. There’s no law that a dual citizen can’t be president.

Root was born Jewish. Now he is a “Born again” C- radio ‘personality’.

Yeshiva World News should not give him any press coverage.

4. The owners of Snopes are in the tank for OblameO so they have no ne’emonis in this case. If 400 people were asked about him and NO ONE knew him, its a problem. One of the “proofs” they mentioned Was that OblameO wrote about specific people in his book. Well, we now know his “girlfriend” was fictitious – made of all the girls he dated. Something aside for hos presidency really stinks and the socialist liberal media is ignoring it all.

Not that I agree with the letter writer but the poster are not accurate. While you don’t have to renounce your citizenship if you move abroad and can be dual citizen, if you do cancel your US citizenship you NEED to reapply to be a citizen. In order to get the foreign exchange student status he could not be US citizen. Also in Indonesia you CANNOT have dual citizenship, so he would have to have renounced his US citizenship in order to enroll in the Midrasa (school). He also admitted to traveling to Pakistan during that period which you couldn’t do as a US citizen. There are other proofs as well that he was only an Indonesian citizen at that point and there is no PROOF that he reapplied.
