A majority of likely Republican presidential primary voters don’t believe President Obama was born in the United States, according to a new poll released Tuesday.

The survey, from Democratic-leaning Public Policy Polling (PPP), found 51 percent of Republicans who said they’re likely to vote in next year's GOP presidential primary doubt the president's birthplace. Just 28 percent of Republicans believe that Obama was born in Hawaii, while another 21 percent are unsure.

The number marks a jump from the last time PPP asked the question in August 2009. At that time, 44 percent of Republicans said they didn’t believe Obama was born in the U.S.

The poll surveyed 400 likely GOP primary voters nationwide and has a margin of error of plus-or-minus 4.9 percent.

3. Boehner and the rest of the GOTP think it's just fine...

That people believe what they choose... even if they're flat wrong.

They won't believe Obama is an American citizen until Jesus, The Easter Bunny, Santa Claus AND Rudolph bring his mother's OB/GYN in to testify! And if he's already passed on, that's proof Obama is a Kenyan AND an Indonesian!

5. Can I be forgiven

if I ask what's the difference between "doubt" and "unsure"?

6. Good point. What's the diff?

So add the 51% to the 21%, and 72% of GOP primary voters are birthers.

That's astonishing.
