No, it wasn't "supporters" as in random voters. It was "supporters" as in people close to her campaign. They made sure to do it in a way that it couldn't be definitively tied back to the campaign, but there was no doubt where it started. Phil Berg, a democrat active in the higher levels of PA politics went so far as to sue Obama in federal court to try to block his nomination just before the DNC.

None of that means that Clinton herself or her campaign staff had any knowledge or complicity in the initial birther movement. That said, the campaign itself stoked the fires by sending out the picture of Obama in traditional Kenyan garb. And Clinton fed the flames a little more when she said that there was no evidence that he was a Muslim "as far as I know" on 60 minutes.

It was all a calculated whisper campaign designed to fear monger and hurt Obama's chances. There was also a lot of racist shit going on that year. So she may not have actually started it (and in fact, rumors were started by an Illinois politician in 2004 I believe) but she certainly helped get the birther movement going.
