No, no no,
Trump is only talking about this issue because the media wants him to.
Hell, even Minnesota Palin is running from this issue...

Just a little FYI, the whole birther issue started with your party, when in the spring of 2008, Clinton supporters circulated an anonymous email questioning Obama’s citizenship.

That's not what that article says. What it does say is that Andy Martin (crackpot) started it in 2004 and attacks against his lineage really ramped up in 2007.
That "Clinton supporters" questioned his credentials to serve anonymously doesn't seem to really indicate that the Democratic party started the Birther movement.
Unless you're Buck.

but if McCain supporters had questioned his credentials to serve anonymously, or not, it would absolutely indicate that the Republican party started the Birther movement.  |

"Then, as Obama marched toward the presidency, a new suggestion emerged: That he was not eligible to serve. (See: Birther debate alive across U.S.)
That theory first emerged in the spring of 2008, as Clinton supporters circulated an anonymous email questioning Obama’s citizenship.
“Barack Obama’s mother was living in Kenya with his Arab-African father late in her pregnancy. She was not allowed to travel by plane then, so Barack Obama was born there and his mother then took him to Hawaii to register his birth,” asserted one chain email that surfaced on the urban legend site Snopes.com in April 2008."
I find it hard to believe that the Clinton's could do this too.
