The article published yesterday by The Washington Times, written by Jeffrey T. Kuhner carries the following headline: KUHNER: Trump poll triumph built on doubting Obama’s birth, followed by [the] President should just release full birth documentation ending legitimacy questions.

We agree, although most people fail to realize that the veil of secrecy extends well beyond Obama’s refusal to release his birth records. As pointed out by Mr. Kuhner, candidate Obama promised transparency in his administration, yet the President has been the most secretive in U.S. history since Richard Nixon. The authenticated long-form birth certificate is but one of the numerous other documents that we call to be released, including the following:

“All passport records (both personal and diplomatic), Obama kindergarten records, Punahou School records, Occidental College records, Columbia University records, Columbia thesis, Harvard Law School records, Harvard Law Review articles, University of Chicago scholarly articles, all financial aid documentation, Illinois State Bar Association records, Illinois State Senate records/schedules (said to be lost), Medical records, Obama/Dunham marriage license, Obama/Dunham divorce documents, Soetoro/Dunham marriage license, and adoption records.”

Then, and only then, will we begin to gain a clearer picture of the man who presently occupies the White House.
