Radio Listeners Chime In On Obama Birth Certificate Issue

MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- Did Barack Obama change any minds with the release of his long-form birth certificate?

It remains to be seen whether the president erased doubts about his status as a natural-born citizen. But a number of callers to "The John Williams Show" on WCCO Radio said it should have happened sooner.

"Well the point is, the truth needs to be told: this stuff should have been done up front," said one caller.

"I think the president was absolutely correct in releasing his long-form birth certificate," said another.

"He should have gotten rid of it [the issue] a long time ago," said yet another listener.
