Blogger admits Hawaii birth certificate forgery, subverting Obama claims (Uh-oh)

Israel Insider ^ | 3 July 2008 | Reuven Koret

[SE Mom]

Jay McKinnon, a self-described Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist, has implicated himself in the production of fraudulent Hawaii birth certificate images similar to the one endorsed as genuine by the Barack Obama campaign, and appearing on the same blog entry where the supposedly authentic document appears.

The evidence of forgery and manipulation of images of official documents, triggered by Israel Insider's revelation of the collection of Hawaii birth certificate images on the Photobucket site and the detective work of independent investigative journalists and imaging professionals in the three weeks since the publication of the images, implicate the Daily Kos, an extreme left blog site, and the Obama campaign, in misleading the public with official-looking but manipulated document images of doubtful provenance.

The perceived unreliability of the image has provoked petitions and widespread demands for Obama to submit for objective inspection the paper versions of the "birth certificate" he claimed in his book Dreams from My Father was in his possession, as well as the paper version of the Certificate of Live Birth for which the image on the Daily Kos and the Obama "Fight the Smears" website was supposedly generated.

Without a valid birth certificate, Obama cannot prove he fulfills the "natural born citizen" requirement of the Constitution, throwing into doubt his eligibility to run for President.

McKinnon, who says he is 25-30 years old, operates a website called OpenDNA.com and uses the OpenDNA screen name on various web sites and blogs, including his comments and diary on The Daily Kos. In recent years he has divided his time between Long Beach, California and Vancouver, British Columbia. He is a Democratic political activist, frequent contributor to the left wing Daily Kos blog, and a fervent Barack Obama supporter.

Yes. Very dark to me, need a new monitor. Strangely it is much lighter in ‘preview’ than on the thread! Didn’t know THIS thread was still going..

Q: Who has verified the document is authentic? Anyone?

"Where are the documents for his name change (whether via step-father adopting or otherwise); Where is the change back to Obama?"

Ali, through out school I would use my step-fathers name one year and then we would move and I would use my fathers name. It just depended on how things were going with my step-father at the time. Schools never questioned it.

Very nice post!
Heading out shopping.

"He was legally adopted in Indonesia and became a Citizen of that country in the legal process,..."

I have never read or heard that before. Source please.

"How did you know that during the passportgate breach the searches were for (1. Dunham. 2. Soetoro. 3. Obama)

or is that conjecture on your part?"

I imagine it is a supposition. Now that TOOT is a possibility they might have to make another trip.

Getting all these names on record should make it a lot easier to find his Draft Registration.

LOL!

That’s hilarious. It’s pucker time!

I thought someone already investigated the registeration with Selective Service and came up with blanks for the Obama name. Now all records need to be searched under multiple names, birthdates and birthplaces.

I wonder how draft registration works when your born BarryDunham and change your name to BarrySoetero, then BarryToot and finally to BHO. How would the system ever locate a person if there name has changed? Was the system automated in 1979 when his time to register came up? Assuming it was, they would have had no where to trace his whereabouts if there were name changes. Do you know if it is the USA BC or registering for Social Security that triggers the Selective Service letter just prior to the 18th B-day?

That about covers it.

I must quibble with #4:

4. To believe the COLB is forged, you would have to ascertain a motive and a belief that something in the official Obama bio is wrong. It's not his mother's marital status, since that's not on the COLB. His name is already known and 'infamous'. Religion? That's not on such forms. You are left with place of birth as the only valid reason *for* a forgery. There is also the possibility that this COLB image was doctored but Obama's birth information is all correct. However, it is unlikely that Obama campaign would vouch for something unnecessarily like that. That leaves us with ... his place of birth.

It is very possible that his birth name is not Barak Hussein Obama II, for whatever reason.

This would open a whole big can o' worms as to why he chose a muslim name.

That article has not been deleted, and I'm not sure why it would be. The post to which you were replying had a typo in the URL. I also posted the link to this thread on July 6th. Here is the correct link.
