Donald Trump, business mogul, Obama-detractor, and instigator of the 'birther' movement, had another 'big' announcement today. He promised to donate $5 million to a charity of Obama's choice, if the president were to show his passport and college records to the public. I find this proposition utterly ridiculous. This is clearly a form of extortion, and completely unfounded. We have already seen Barack Obama's birth certificate, and other presidents never had to show their college transcripts - so why should he? This unprecedented move shows how low the blows can go during a highly contested presidential election. On a brighter note, it also shows that the general public will not believe just anything it hears. A series of eloquent tweets openly mocked and scorned this proposal, making Trump into a (bigger) laughingstock.

I agree that this is a ridiculous request made by Donald Trump. I find it interesting that he thinks the president will listen to his requests. Also, I wonder if this is something that many people actually care about. Personally, I believe that a president's college and passport records are not that important. What is more important, are there plans for the future and their political views.
