After revealing himself as a “birther”, the outfielder Luke Scott said that he did not believe that President Obama was born in the United States.
After he was interviewed by David Brown of “Big League Stew” of Yahoo, Scott said that he didn’t think Obama was born in the country.
Even though Scott knows that the President has circulated his official birth certificate around, he still believes he was not born in the U.S. Scott claims that because the President constantly dodges questions about his citizenship status, he must therefore not be a native citizen.
Scott believes that the President is in fact hiding something about himself and that he probably isn’t really from the U.S.
After the player ranted about the President not being from the U.S, he then took time to thank those who sacrificed their lives so he could play the game he loves.
He says because those people risked their lives and died for their country, he can now play baseball and fulfill his ultimate dream. Although some still believe the President is from Kenya, most have moved on and accepted that he is in fact a native citizen.
