It is interesting that Obama himself made the trip to Hawaii -- someone, especially someone embroiled in the middle of a Presidential campaign, who was legally pursuing a copy of a legal, valid birth certificate, could have easily done so over the phone or via internet.

You be the judge. Let us hope the court that will be hearing this case, has the objectivity to insist on true verification of whatever Obama's attorney will be presenting....keep the popcorn handy. Knowing the Clintons as we do, I don't see how they could let this opportunity get away.....

We beg to differ. FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate.

Well FactCheck should state their facts straight. It is not the 'original birth certificate'. It is a recently produced 'Certification of Live Birth'.

Why show it to an Obama-friendly group like FactCheck, rather than a more objective group? I am still suspicious, especially since the issue number was blacked out.

“You be the judge.”

Like many here, we have. For months. Pretty much since this “issue” surfaced. However, akin to the Ron Paulies, or the odd 911-truther, this thing just keeps on running, and running, and....

Obama spent many years living in Hawaii. His mother is long passed away, as is his grandfather, but his grandmother is still alive and living there. I wouldn't begrudge the man his last trip "home" before he goes down to a crashing electoral defeat.

On the other hand isn't it much more important to know that factcheck.org is owned by a "trust" that used to employee both Obama and his gumbah, the mad-bomber terrorist himself, William Ayers?

Whatever factcheck.org has verified it has nothing whatsoever to do with the authenticity of anything (if the staffers doing the job know what's good for them eh).

While I think Obama should and will be defeated on an issues and character based campaign, the irony would be too sweet if he was disqualified over this.

In his first State Senate campaign in Illinois, he had all four of his opponents disqualified on signature challenges, including the woman who had paved the way for him to take her seat and introduced him to all the “right” people. (She was leaving her State Senate seat to move up to a Illinois congressional spot, but lost...she tried to get back into the race and was tossed out, Obama refused to step aside...:)

FactCheck is affiliated and funded by the Annenberg Project: Former Weatherman terrorist Professor Bill Ayers and Senator Barack Obama worked together at the Annenberg Foundation. Coincidence? Yeah, right!

There is one strange thing. Where it says fathers race: African. Now that is his nationality. Wasn’t it common in the 60’s for the race to be put down as NEGROE ?

With all this talk and now even a lawsuit regarding Obama’s place of birth, I was wondering about the fact (or at least, my understanding) that McCain was born in a military base in the Panama Canal Zone.

I’m assuming that being born in a U.S. military base, even if it is located in a foreign country, is enough to satisfy the Constitution? (But being born in Kenya, as Obama might have, would of course NOT be enough to satisfy.)

Would that be correct? I’m not trying to stir up something on McCain; just wondering where the delineation is drawn, exactly.

The Annenberg Political Fact Check is a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center

We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship.

Wow.

FactCheck's photos of Obama's birth certificate just proved that their posted image of it was forged

Obama is the chairman of the Annenberg project in Chicago; factcheck.org is another Annenberg group; Obama goes to Hawaii and then comes up with a birth certificate stamped 2007; Hmmm...

Funny... I checked the internal timestamp on the files. The first one (with what appears to be the shadow of an arm across the document, where the stamp would be) is
March 12, 2008, at 10:41 pm.

Odd.
