Kenyans know his birthplace and build a monument there. Kenyans make primitive animal sacrifices to celebrate the first Kenyan to be US Prez.

Well that settles it. All those primitive animal sacrificers can't be wrong. People with such rich mythological imaginations must be right.

Obama probably is hiding something. But people repeat things about this that they have no way of knowing are true or not. Like that $1 million dollar figure or the "three whole law firms" working on this or the Indonesian passport used to go to Pakistan. These are factoids that get churned and chewed over and over again in the Internet without anyone having seen the real evidence.

This argument is childish. Like asking “why” until the point is moot.

Look, anyone can go on and on and on about proof. All arguments can lead to the chicken or the egg. If all of you were handed the original birth certificate, you’d doubt its origin. If the origins were certified, you’d doubt the certification. If the certification were deemed as valid by a professional, you’d doubt that professional. If the professional’s credentials were proven to be valid from an outside source, you’d doubt the outside source....ad nauseum.

Based on the arguments I’m seeing here, NO ONE can prove who they are because we all rely on things like drivers licenses which require birth certificates, credit cards which require a SSN, SSN’s which require a birth certificate, and utility bills, which require a residence. Residences which require proof...and on and on...all leading back to your birth certificate.

Imagine if someone were to doubt your records over & over again...what FURTHER proof would you have as evidence that you all are U.S. citizens? At some point, the energy expended for proof outweighs the point itself - POTUS or otherwise.

I personally think there’s nothing that can be done to offer further proof. Especially considering the credibility of those who doubt it versus the credibility of those who have provided every facet of proof required BY LAW.

Let’s focus on something with teeth, for this seems a slippery slope and bordering on trivial, all things considered thus far...
