I may be misunderstanding the question here, but aren't you not a taxpayer if you don't pay taxes? That being the case, I don't see a conflict with these numbers are they are completely unrelated.

TAX-Payer. TAX*payer* tax PAYER. I don't know how else to say it.. No, if you are not paying taxes you are not a TAX PAYER.

Also, please address konming's posted birth certificates and why we should give any credence to unsubstantiated rumors spread about a candidate in a presidential election?

I did address konmings birth certificate, post. providing a document on the internet is *not* the same as providing it in court. Anyone can easily make a fake b.c. using photoshop. Providing one in court allows its authenticity to be verified.
I am not saying, (nor have I ever been) Obama isn't a US citizen.
I'm saying:
A). It was bad politics to squash the question on procedural issues. Provide a copy of the birth certificate - it ends the question definitively.
Whereas stonewalling on releasing birth certificate et.al feeds the frenzy.
B). Proving that you are eligible for the job should be part of the PAC formation. Right now according to the FEC, they are not responsible for verifying credentials. According to state of florida, Division of elections.. it is the responsibility of each of the counties subcommitties under the executive committe of the political party.
In other words, the democratic party is responsible for verifying that barack is eligible and the republican party for mccain.
