Dobbs is impassioned about several issues, especially open immigration policies, the negative effects of big business on America's middle class, global warming, and the military involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq. He is more outspoken on his afternoon radio show, which made its debut in March 2008. On radion he has spoken often in favor of the "birther" conspiracy theory that President Obama is not a United States citizen. When he mentioned the citizenship issue on CNN over the summer, he raised the ire of his bosses and provoked criticism from progressive groups.  More recently, his coverage of immigration provoked protests by Hispanic groups.
