You’ve got so many posts to rewrite Victoria! Patti Solis Doyle, Hillary’s 2008 campaign manager, confirmed earlier today that the “birther conspiracy” was originally circulated by a member of the Clinton campaign. This morning Doyle sent out the following Tweet in response to Ari Fleischer:

Shortly afterward Doyle, in an attempt at damage control, went on CNN with Wolf Blitzer to attempt to explain. Here is there exchange:

Blitzer: Someone supporting Hillary Clinton was trying to promote this so-called Birther issue? What happened?

Doyle: So we — absolutely, the campaign nor Hillary did not start the Birther movement, period, end of story there. There was a volunteer coordinator, I believe, in late 2007, I believe, in December, one of our volunteer coordinators in one of the counties in Iowa — I don’t recall whether they were an actual paid staffer, but they did forward an email that promoted the conspiracy.

Blitzer: The Birther conspiracy?

Doyle: Yeah, Hillary made the decision immediately to let that person go. We let that person go. And it was so, beyond the pale, Wolf, and so not worthy of the kind of campaign that certainly Hillary wanted to run.

Hopefully we can all move on from this issue. Obama was born here and even if he wasn’t he would still be “natural born”. Hillary’s team originated the issue, Trump amplified — today none of them believe Obama was born in Kenya.
