Donald Trump on Wednesday claimed victory after President Barack Obama released his birth certificate and explained the details of his birth. Trump said he is very proud of himself, while Obama reminded the citizens of America that they should not be distracted by the “silliness” of the issue.
Just a few minutes after Obama addressed America regarding concerns about where he was born, the main impresario of the “carnival” Donald Trump claimed his victory.
He said shortly after he landed by helicopter in New Hampshire that he has accomplished something really huge and hopes that people will see the big role he played in getting rid of the long-standing issue.
However, Trump is not abandoning his cause of insinuating gloomy issues regarding the president. Reports say that Trump told reporters that he heard rumors that the president was not a very bright student and he does not deserve his Ivy League education. Now, Trump is challenging the president to show his college transcripts.
People are already noticing Trump’s seemingly attention-grabbing issues directed to the White House and on the president in general. More intriguing is the business tycoon’s sudden interest in politics. Few weeks ago, issues about the authenticity of his birth certificate were released.
Still, Trump said that he will soon make a decision on whether or not he will join the ticket for Republican nomination in June. Political analysts frown on the idea of considering Trump as an actual candidate. They also think that Trump’s move is very “schoolyard stuff.”

The US announced late last night that they are chartering at least a couple of flight out of japan. This is not a mandatory evacuation but only a voluntary one. The US Government wants US Diplomats and their families currently in Japan to have a way home if they would like to do so.
The areas of Japan where US personnel are currently located are the US Embassy in Tokyo, the US Consulate in Nagoya and the Foreign Service Institute int Yakohama.
This Voluntary evacuation is also being extended to any US citizens currently in Japan as well. There is limited seating, so US citizens are encouraged to call ahead at 1-212-501-4444 or email [email protected]. US Citizens can also just show up at the airport and try to get a seat as well.
So far there is at least one Charter plane going to both the New International Airport in Tokyo and the Old International Airport in Haneda.
Priority will be given to US Citizens with medical conditions.
Also announce last night was the US Nuclear Regulatory Committee’s recommendation that US Citizens and personnel evacuate to at least 50 miles from the Fukushima power plant site. This is contradictory information from the Japanese Government who is recommending only a 12 mile evacuation.
