    Didn't Trumps dad have to buy out almost all the chips in his casino to keep him financially afloat? If this is the guy that's running #2 in the GOP polls, Bob Dole needs to be firing up the Cialis for a comeback

    Hold on for a second...if you want to see Trump's educational records I assume you would like to see the same from our President? Trump is an idiot, correct, but to go after his education and question his stated educational achievements is something the left should stay miles and miles away from. Not showing the birth certificate, showing the wrong one to satisfy the loonies, etc. is one thing, but I really would like to see Obama's grades and read some of his papers. That is not too much to ask and, from my understanding, these things have never been made public.

    Trump has an undergrad degree from Penn. He did two years at Fordham. Two years at U of Penn.

    I'm a free speech type of guy but I wish you had followed your first thought.

    Has no idea that Trump went to Fordham for two years.

    He loves UPenn and talks about it constantly. I think Donald Jr. and Ivanka both went there.

    Did he not get in originally?

    OK, so I'm not a birther by any means. I believe he was born in Hawaii and don't buy into conspiracy theories in general.

    I don't even know all of the birthers claims.

    But, I do have a question based on all of Trump's ramblings.

    Is there a separate long form birth certificate in a filing cabinet somewhere in Hawaii or is the Certificate of Live Birth all there is?

    I'm not saying I agree with what he's been saying, but I have a hard time calling someone with a degree from Wharton "dumb"

    I don't think he's even the slightest bit serious about running for president, but I don't have any explanation for why he's doing what he's doing.

    He has released all there is.

    Birthers pretend birth certificates are uniform across the country. They are not, and they certainly were not 40+ years ago.

    The left had no problem calling a guy who graduated from Yale and who has an MBA from Harvard dumb every day for eight years, so I don't think a degree from UPenn is going to spare Donald from being called names.
