Who's the victim of the fraud if a staffer posts the cert from Kos onto Obama’s website?
Maybe it's a chargable fraud, but I've yet to see what gain Obama gets from this, aside from keeping us busy with this and not hunting down what he means by a “domestic security force bigger than and better funded than the military”.
The point is, why have a forgery at all unless there is something to hide.
Someone found a listing of his birth in a Hawaii newspapers (there’s a thread for it here), which makes it likely that he was, indeed, born in America. Therefore, what is there to hide? Some people speculate that it could be that his father is shown as “Arab” on the original. That part of the Certificate is obviously phony because “African” was never used and is not a race anyway.
Whatever it is, he obviously thinks keep it hidden is worth committing fraud. Of course, with the way he lies at every turn and has it covered up by the press, it might not even have occurred to him that it might be exposed.
