I appear to be the obe who found the Duckworth/Obama article. I assume it implies O was adopted by his Indonesian father. That, and the fact he lived there for several years may confuse people into thinking he was born there.

Here’s a new one: “Posted on: Sunday, January 8, 2006
Duckworth working to win - ... Duckworth is happy to point out that she and Hawai’i-raised Punahou graduate Obama have “a kama’aina connection.”

Both were born outside the country — Obama in Indonesia, Duckworth in Thailand — and graduated from high school in Honolulu — Punahou and McKinley, respectively.” http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2006/Jan/08/ln/FP601080334.html
