Why Barack Obama listed his birthplace as Kenya
Doug Ross@Journal ^ | 5/19/12 | Doug Ross

Posted on 05/20/2012 5:44:11 AM PDT by pookie18

The biography provided by Barack Obama to his literary agent specified his birthplace as "Kenya". And, over the course of 17 years, despite multiple revisions by Obama, the Kenyan birthplace remained a fundamental part of the bio on the agent's website.

Was Barack actually born in Kenya? I seriously doubt it, even though Michelle Obama has publicly stated that Kenya is her husband's "home country". Contemporary newspaper listings in Honolulu, for example, list the time and place of his birth. While this isn't ironclad proof, to be sure, it's good enough for me.

No, my suspicion is that Mr. Obama manipulated his birthplace intentionally (and cynically) to take advantage of certain benefits unavailable to those born in the United States.

Bookworm Room describes why that might have been. We need to set the Wayback Machine to 1978, when young Obama was seeking admission to college.

1978 isn’t just any year. It’s a very special year. It was the year that the Supreme Court decided Regents of the University of California v. Bakke (1978) 438 U.S. 265... [and] held that [the] race-based admission process was unconstitutional.

With that decision, Obama, who was a self-confessed slacker in high school, suddenly lost his e-ticket to a good college. He couldn’t know then (nor would it have mattered) that the various concurrences in this deeply divided opinion would eventually open the door to colleges and universities making race a “factor” in admission, so much so that this “factor-ness” eventually created a whole new quota system.

My best guess is that, denied an opportunity to use quota systems to parlay a lousy academic record into a quality college admission, Obama searched around for other means of bypassing his academic failings. It was this search that led him to announce that he was Kenyan. I’m sure that a certain amount of digging will reveal that, just when the Bakke decision came down, American universities were engaged in some sort of pro-active policy involving increasing the number of African nationals on America’s college campuses. Obama was happy to oblige the universities in this effort by co-opting his father’s nationality, and burying the fact that he was a garden-variety American black kid.

There’s the nexus — In 1978, Obama, who already then was willing to lie to achieve his goals, created a false identity to deal with the changes the Bakke decision wrought on college admissions.

This appears to be an extremely plausible explanation for Obama's refusal to release any of his college transcripts.

My guess is that this scenario -- or one similar to it -- helps explain why Obama enjoys the company of race-hustlers like Al Sharpton.

And where was the media for lo these many years? Busy investigating Sarah Palin's elementary school chums?

They didn’t use carrots; they used sticks. They killed Bill Clinton’s good friend Bill Gwatney to scare him off, after Gwatney had agreed to present a petititon at the DNC Convention, carrying out the intended plan to reveal Obama’s ineligibility at the Convention.

Remember the “Recreate ‘68”? How there were going to be all these subversives at the Convention? Those were to scare off Gwatney’s wife if she decided to carry out her husband’s wishes at the Convention, rather than heed the warning when both Gwatney and Stephanie Tubbs (who agreed to present the petition after Gwatney died and shortly thereafter died of “an aneurysm” that last week before the convention).

There is a much, much bigger story here than just - giggle - “birtherism”. Read any of the stuff at Ulsterman’s report - especially concerning Kam Kuwata, for instance, and Diane Feinstein.... (Google for links; they’re not allowed here) and you will see details which - like the details regarding the Osama assassination - have been vindicated over time. We’ve got a civil war within the democratic party - dueling mafias, it seems.

It is totally lawless.

And it is deadly.

The best research on this was done by ladysforest. Her blog has a wealth of information.

I’ve posted some updates to what I posted on my blog, at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2885916/posts?page=113#113

Sorry, I just don’t believe anyone threatens the Clintons and gets away with it. Dittos about someone offing good friends of the Clintons.

And I’m highly skeptical of a second hand report about what someone said she heard Bill Clinton say.

“The research done was meticulous and undeniably convincing.”

“BTW, when I say something like this I try to provide a link to the “research.”

BTW - here is the link to the research:

http://myveryownpointofview.wordpress.com/2010/05/28/extra-extra-announcing-obamas-birth

Images straight off the actual microfilm viewers in Honolulu AND The Library of Congress. There are tons more that are not posted on that as well.

One of the more interesting things we found? That in the 1960-1964 General Birth Index book in Honolulu, the official date range is missing in the book. It IS in all of the other Index Books, just NOT in the book that contains obama’s entry.

http://myveryownpointofview.wordpress.com/2011/03/06/its-a-date/

All the material was collected IN PERSON. This is how we were able to be certain of the veracity of our research.

Thank you for all the details! Much, much appreciated. I remember most of the above but did not know it all by any means. Did not know (or remember?) Starfelt’s death.

>>>”he was a garden variety American black kid”>>>>>>

NO he was NOT a garden variety American black kid. He was raised by a white mother and then white grandparents. He lived in Indonesia and then Hawaii. He didn’t live in the continental USA until college.

Him falsely claiming to be born in Kenya, for whatever reason, doesn’t explain the actions to fake the birth announcements, nor of the Hawaii Department of Health. Please see my post at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2885916/posts?page=113#113

Nor does it explain why his draft registration was forged - Obama’s registration being the only one from that post office at that time which left off the first 2 digits of a 4-digit year stamp.

Nor does it explain why he has used a SSN on his tax returns that fails e-verify and was issued from Connecticut when Obama never lived there.

Nor does it explain why his passport file was breached 3 times (to sanitize the file, according to sources close to the investigation).

Nor does it explain why he has posted a forged COLB and a forged long-form, both claiming a Hawaii birth.

Nor does it explain why the NARA is missing the records of people coming into the USA from foreign countries in just one week of microfilms - the week of Obama’s alleged Hawaii birth.

Nor does it explain why the Passport Office claims Obama’s mother’s passport applications from before 1967 were destroyed, when no documentation of their destruction apparently exists as required by law, when no retention schedule change authorizing their disposal as required by law exists, and other records supposedly also destroyed have actually been disclosed to requestors. It also doesn’t explain why the Passport Office has spent 2 years hiding permanently-retained, alphabetized index cards which list the passports issued to Obama’s mother - which are required to be disclosed upon request.

All those things make perfect sense if he really WAS born in Kenya as he claimed in 1991 and is just NOW trying to pretend he was born in Hawaii.

If you want your theory to fly here, where people are knowledgeable about a lot of facts, you’ll have to explain these anomalies first.

Mike Zullo of the Cold Case Posse is the one who responded to a question at the presser by saying that the birth announcements include foreign births and births that actually happened 2 years before the claimed date of birth in the announcements.

I’ve got a bunch of evidence that I haven’t yet posted, but an explanation of some of what I can support is at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2885916/posts?page=113#113 . It links to a post on my blog which is accurate about the Star-Bulletin but needs to be updated with the information about the Advertiser, which is in the post above. So combine what’s in the post above with the Star-Bulletin portion at http://butterdezillion.wordpress.com/2011/04/04/attention-bill-oreilly-the-rest-of-the-story/ .

A lot of my documentation is posted at my blog, at http://www.butterdezillion.wordpress.com so it might be good to just look around and see what I’ve got there. The welcome page is sort of an index by main idea. I post summaries here, but the actual documentation in most instances is posted on my blog.

Last time I checked the holdings for the Bishop Library in Honolulu, they listed the PAPER COPIES for those newspapers. But they are not there.

Have you read what I’ve got posted at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/bloggers/2885916/posts?page=113#113 and at my blog at http://butterdezillion.wordpress.com/2011/04/04/attention-bill-oreilly-the-rest-of-the-story/ ?

We’re talking about scratches that disappeared over time.

Also there is no way that the microfilms at the HSL right now are the same ones that were there in 1961, even though they try to portray themselves as if they were. The actual microfilming is so poorly done that it could not have been done by the microfilming company named on the microfilm boxes - on both the Advertiser and the Star-Bulletin. The Star-Bulletin is too pristine (aside from the signs of substandard microfilming) to have lasted 50 years in the library in that condition.

This is a subject I sort of dropped because it takes so much detailed analysis in order to convince people, and there is so much other territory that is critical right now. But what I’ve got shows that we were lied to about where the images came from. And there is evidence of tampering - some of which I mentioned in the post above and some of which is on ladyforest’s blog. She’s done really detailed analysis and has blogged about it - anecdotal stuff as well as the images from the microfilms. I encourage you to look at her blog.

Ladysforest, maybe you could give some links to the best places for him to look?

Starfelt died the DAY BEFORE Trump started his whole thing about obama’s BC.

Here is what I posted on the blog:

MARCH 16th 2011, FROM UTERINE CANCER. THERE WERE CONDOLENCES WRITTEN ON “HER” BLOG, AND A MEMORIAL DATE SET FOR ONE MONTH AFTER SHE PASSED AWAY. NO OBITUARIES, ETC. WERE FOUND. THIS FILMMAKER DIED THE DAY BEFORE DONALD TRUMP BEGAN HIS SUPPORT OF THOSE WHO QUESTION OBAMA’S ELIGIBILITY.

There were/are now Bio’s of her that did not exist prior. Her son barely mentioned it on his Facebook page. weird. Supposedly they were close?

I actually should be putting newspaper inserts together right now but it’s hard for me to break away from this because the interest is there now, and I have to talk when people are willing and ready to listen. Seems like people are always ready and willing to listen Sunday through Wednesday, which is when I have to get newspaper stuff done.

It’s been a very emotionally-exhausting week also. My daughter graduated a week from yesterday so I was already drained from preparing for that, and within the past week we’ve had a 40-something church member find out he has 3-4 stage 4 brain tumors, the mid-40’s son of one of our members dropped dead of either a heart attack or aneurysm in Kansas, a mid-50’s mother/grandmother in our congregation passed out at the wheel, drove into a pond, and after several days on a ventilator passed away, and my daughter’s speech coach who I am also friends with lost her son to stillbirth on the due date - in circumstances very, very similar to how we lost our first child, so it’s brought back a lot of painful memories as well as sorrow for my friend. Today we had a baptism celebration for a little 6-week-old baby boy that was a joy but also bittersweet because it reminded me of how much Angie lost when her baby died.

It’s also been a very, very active week for eligibility issues, and I’ve tried to keep up and point people to important information before the disinformation makes it around the globe a couple times. Even at best we are a small band of people who actually process facts, and the media - including the threatened “conservative media” - has a loud megaphone which spews constant disinformation. But we’ll stand together and be as big loudmouths as we can.

Who knows which one of us will give the “yop” that lets Horton know there is a “Who-Ville”. If we all just keep plugging away, one by one we can add voices and increase the volume to a non-avoidable level. =)

They haven't gotten away with it... yet. The other shoe is ready to fall. Besides, it was too soon for the Clintons to run again. Let the memories and anger fade and she'll be baaaack now that she has more big name offices for her resume. This is just breathing room for them. There's plenty of time for revenge.

It’s an eyewitness report. Bettina Viviano heard Bill Clinton say he knows Obama is ineligible.

Do you believe that JFK was assassinated? Do you have any idea of the military and special ops tools that a President has at his disposal if he wanted to assassinate somebody? Bill Clinton knows exactly what tools were available in his day, and advances have been made since then.

Bill Gwatney actually died, though - a couple weeks before the Convention. Google it. Somebody came into his office and shot him, ran, and was shot down by police. Nobody left to question, no reason for an autopsy.

Kam Kuwata also documentably died. Very powerful, well-connected dem, and yet he rotted in his apartment for 2 weeks before somebody found his body. No autopsy done. Kuwata had organized the 2008 Dem Convention and seen a strange encounter where Obama had been practically unresponsive, was taken into a back room where only a few people were allowed and there was chanting, and then came back out perky, blinking constantly, and unable to remember who Kuwata even was. He had quietly told others about that episode and also had run a campaign against Obama’s preferred AG for California. A couple months after Obama’s AG won, Kuwata showed up dead. No autopsy done, but it was claimed that maybe he had jetlag...

Let me put it this way: What WOULD convince you that Bill and Hillary were threatened into silence about Obama’s ineligibility? How is your current belief falsifiable (i.e. able to be proven wrong)?

My goodness, you are in the middle of everything.

Thank you for keeping at it - there are many heroes and heroines struggling to find truth and publicize it.

Thanks to all of you, and you know who you are.

One of the things her husband, Brad Mays, posted on the memorial page (IIRC) was that there had been tensions between him and Lori - and between Lori and the others who wanted to expose the shenanigans against Hillary - because Mays ended up going very mild on Obama’s people in the film they actually finished with. I’m suspecting that Lori and Brad knew Bettina Viviano and Michele Thomas - who helped produce a documentary (were there 2 different documentaries, or were they all working on the same one?) and are now reportedly working with the Cold Case Posse regarding the threats and violence within the 2008 democratic primary.

Last I knew there was no death announcement for her in the LA newspapers. Somebody checked for me for the first week after her death and couldn’t find anything.

I suspect there is a lot more there than meets the eye.

I also contacted Pamela Geller, on whose blog “Granny Infidel” posted her Advertiser image from the HSL librarian - who said she had just copied it for Starfelt a week earlier and so she had kept it in a drawer in case anybody else asked for it. Pamela said the way this image got shoved onto her seemed strange to her at the time. I think there’s probably more behind the atlasshrugs and texasdarlin blogs going dark around then also, and given the other stuff that was going on and Obama’s LITERAL “war on women” at that time, I’m glad both these blog owners seem to be safe. If there is more, I hope their stories can eventually come out.

We’ve been put through a wringer, but I think the Hillary people have probably been through even worse. I hope they will feel safe enough (and be kept safe enough) to step forward and reveal their stories so everybody who supports it can unite behind the rule of law. ‘Cause that’s what’s really at stake here. I think most people who have their eyes open realize that by now.
