LOL! The guy looks to have fun during this campaign.

http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/248311-obama-tells-birther-joke-asks-young-boy-if-he-has-birth-certificate

President Obama poked fun at conspiracy theories which question whether he was born in the United States during a campaign stop in Orlando, Fla. on Saturday.

The president made a stop at a local sports bar, Gator Dockside, where he made the rounds, speaking to patrons, according to a White House pool report.

At one table, Obama was told by an adult that a young boy at the table was “born in Hawaii.”

“You were born in Hawaii? You have a birth certificate?” the president asked, as the table broke into laughter.

In before some conservative poster asks why this is okay, but not when Romney does it.

The intended audience of the joke - eligible voters, mostly - evidently thought it was.

It's OK when either of them does it...

Because when Obama does it, it seems genuine and funny. When Romney does, it comes out like his staff wrote it for him and falls flat.

Because there's a portion of Romney's party that seriously believes that Obama wasn't born in the US.

Yup, Obama can't make mormon jokes and Romney shouldn't make birther jokes.
