They were right, Alan Keyes is insane

I was always fond of Alan Keyes. He made the Republican Presidential debates back in '96 and 2000 worth watching. And I remember watching him debate Senate candidate Barack Obama back in 2004. Keyes was the victor and it wasn't even close.

But last week, he was the keynote speaker at the Dayton, Ohio tea party, and Mr. Keyes goes off into an unfortunate discussion about the legitimacy of the President's birth certificate. Below is the video.



Come on Mr. Keyes, do we really need to go down that route? Isn't there enough material to work with? Besides the fact that the evidence that the President was born in Hawaii is overwhelming, I'm sure the President would love the "birther" story to stay out there for as long as possible. It's a distraction from the real issues. It weakens the Tea Party movement and all legitimate opposition to the President's policies.

In other words, the White House's worst nightmare is more Paul Ryan, and its best hope is more Alan Keyes.
