I’ll normally look at a variety of different theories, and then brainstorm to come up with ones that may match based upon new info. Some of the pieces that made NO sense eight months ago fit better now that we have more info...
... and yes, I know the likelihood that we stumbled upon this “lost” birth record of Barack H Obama in Massachusetts is HIGHLY remote ... this is probably a residual record on some old 1980’s CD database from Barry’s college days at Cambridge...
But based upon what I’ve read about the events leading up to and after BO’s birth, and what I know about the Hawaiian “birth certificate” program, the MOST LIKELY scenario is that Barry was probably born a few weeks before Aug 4, 1961, and NOT in Hawaii. All family members would have to do is sign and file affidavits along with an application for a COHB or CODB to “create” a Hawaiian birth record — easily done in 2008, and certainly easily done in 1961.
Ann and her mom (Toot) would have every reason to falsify affidavits in an attempt to “start over” and give mom & young Barack a “fresh start” in a place that is “more accepting” of a mixed-race child — 1960s Hawaii. It was NOT part of a grant plot hatched 47 years ago to cover-up records for Barack Jr if ever he ran for President — it would simply be the easiest way to register a baby not born in Hawaii.
If he was born in an African hut, or a small clinic in Somerville, MA, a hospital in Vancouver, BC, or someplace in between ... only a handful of people REALLY know. Barry was there, but obviously too young to remember! As infants, we are all vulnerable to what adults tell us years later.
The true witnesses have either been offered something for their silence or can’t talk because they’re dead.
That’s why SEEING the Birth Records is the ONLY way to put this to rest for those of us who are saying, “Trust, but verify”
... and I’m being kind when I use the word “trust”
I could not agree more, as someone who will never stop asking to see it, even when there are trusted allies like Leo saying, "Forget about the birth certificate."
"Uh...no, Leo. You do your thing, and I'll do mine."
