Hillary Clinton is the grandmother of the birther movement

One more thing about the birther issue: Joel Pollack writes at Breitbart that Hillary Clinton is the grandmother of the birther movement, as her campaign did these six things when she was running for president against Obama in 2008:
More than a full year before anyone would hear of Orly Taitz, the Birther strategy was first laid out in the Penn memo.
The “othering” foundation was built subliminally by the Clinton campaign itself.

Staffers in Hillary’s actual campaign used email to spread the lies among other Democrats (this was a Democrat primary after all — so that is the only well you needed to poison a month before a primary).
The campaign released the turban photo.

Hillary herself used 60 Minutes to further stoke these lies.
