As The Huffington Post's Sam Stein noted, during today's White House press briefing, Fox News correspondent Wendell Goler asked White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs whether the “complaints of birthers and other folks complicate the President's dealing with the American Muslim community.”

From the press briefing:

GOLER: "[Obama's] been very much out front in dealing with Muslims abroad. There's some question about whether or not he has been quite so visible at dealing with American Muslims. Do the complaints of birthers and other folks complicate the President's dealing with the American Muslim community?

GIBBS: I have to say, you -- I got to give you credit, Wendell, for getting a lot of crazy people in one question. (Laughter.)

GOLER: I hope you're not including me as one of the crazy people. (Laughter.)

GIBBS: No, no, no, I'm -- but you artfully got in a lot of Internet complaints about the President in one --

GOLER: Not to give credence to the arguments -- I wonder if it complicates the President's outreach politically.

GIBBS: No. We have -- the President has dealt with the crazy Internet rumors for years. I don't think that's deterred anything that he's done in understanding what the right thing is to do for this country and to broaden our relationship with Muslims throughout the world.

Again, I've said this many times, Wendell. If you're -- if after I asked that the President's birth certificate be put on the Internet hasn't dissuaded you from where he was being born, I'm almost positive that no argument is somehow going to dissuade you from that. I don't -- I got to tell you, I don't -- we don't spend a lot of time here worrying about what to do about people that don't think the President was born here. I don't -- again, I'm the guy who said “put the birth certificate on the Internet.” It has apparently, among those people, dissuaded virtually none of them.
