John Legend to Donald Trump: You Racist!
by Free Britney at .John Legend not a fan of Donald Trump.
It's not The Donald's reality show or supposed ambitions to run for president in 2012 that have the Grammy-winning pianist pissed, either, but Trump's recent comments in which he persistently questioned President Obama's nationality.
"He needs to stop saying that racist bulls**t birther s**t," Legend told N.Y. Magazine. "Quote me please. He should be ashamed of himself. It's awful, really."
Tell us how you really feel ... both of you guys.
Trump said on GMA and The View that Obama's purportedly cloudy childhood fills him with doubt. He then produced his own birth certificate to prove a point.
Legend isn't the first star upset over this. Bill Cosby said on Today that "the only thing he's running is his mouth," and Bill O'Reilly even called Trump out.
What do you think of Legend's comments? Is Trump racist for questioning Obama's birth certificate, or is he just raising a sensitive, but important point?

donald trump is not a racist.. John Legend. . because a person has any issue with a black person. . does not make him/her a Racist. .use your head!!!
The issue on birth certicate should have been taken care of before the 2008 election, which I am sure that it was done. People like Donald Trump and more really did not believe that Obama would be elected as President of United States. Now these people are pissed and are reaching for anything in the bottom of the barrel.
why is trump bringing this issue up? that is the question people need to ask. obama has shown proof of citizenship. after all this time, if trump doesn't accept this proof of citizenship, then we need to ask," why is trump making this an issue?". if trump insists on making this an issue, then i have a right to ask, "why?". as an obama supporter, i hope trump keeps bringing it up, because it makes him look like a moron. the more the republicans make this an issue, the better the democrats will do in 2012.
It is a bit late in the day to be questioning Obama's birthplace and birthright. It is inconceivable that a person can attain the highest office in America without providing proof of birth. Trump needs to find another tune to play that doesn't whip up extreme emotions and views from opposing camps. This is a mere case of setting the cat among the pigeons. Grow up man!
People need to stop being so sensitive about races. The only way to beat racism is to be equal and treat someone's color or creed as if it was just another thing in the world. Like air. It's just there.
