Problems.....
The document is dated in 1961 and refers to "The Republic of Kenya". The Republic of Kenya did not come into existence until 1964. That is an indisputable fact. Find a way to explain that and I'll listen.
There are two places for signatures, one for Obama Sr. and one for an official. Both are blank.
There are no details regarding time of birth, weight, attending physician, etc...It's possible that Kenya never records these but it is a question.
The line for "Christian" name. I have known two people born in Kenya in this time frame. Neither had a Christian name. One was a Kikuyu named Waithera the other a Lao named Ashieng.
The last few are small issues but should be addressed. The first, the fact that there was no Republic of Kenya in 1961 is a deal killer.
The doc is dated 17th of February, 1964 (in the lower right).
Good grief. The document is not dated 1961. It is dated 17 Feb 1964.
ok there are no signatures for daddy and the official because its a copy not the original and the signatures should be on the original...
You would be well suited to READ the document before making your pronouncements.
READ it carefully. Notice when it ACTUALLY IS DATED.
Pay close attention to the last line which reads:
“Given under my Hand and Seal of Office this 17th day of February, 1964”
The document in question was issued in 1964. It is a COLB, not the original hospital document.
Why is it you selectively have no problem with the bona fides of the FactChuck document dated 2007?
I don't know what you're talking about since there are no places for the parents’ signatures.
This is not the original long form, this is a certification of the original record. Again, it's dated ‘64.
“Christian” name is the British way of asking for their first and middle names. Notice it doesn't include the surname.
You're right, there was no Republic of Kenya in ‘61 but that has nothing to do with the pic.
The first, the fact that there was no Republic of Kenya in 1961 is a deal killer.

The Certification was issued in 1964 about the birth in ‘61.
