While I do believe the birther issue is mostly born out of xenophobia, there are certainly some strange elements in the story. This is one of them.
No there's not and no it isn't.
Dude, I think I've made my position that the birthers have little basis in reality quite clear, but even I think you're being a bit dismissive here. Was Obama born in Kenya? Probably not... and I'd be willing to bet a lot on that. But nobody should be able to say with a straight face that there haven't been some strange elements to the story.
