I agree. I never could get past the fact that Obamas birth announcement was in the Honolulu papers in 1961. I see no plausible way that would happen if he was born in Kenya. And I’m not conspiratorial enough to believe that his grandparents put the listings in in the hope that someday that would be an indicator he was born in the US. Thats just too much of a stretch to be believable in my mind.
On the other hand, to get ahead, he NEEDED to be born in Kenya. He made up a lie to advance is career as the “exotic foreigner”. And it took a long time to unravel the lie. This all makes sense to me.
I think this is the real story behind this whole thing. Face it....the minute you raise your hand and note that you are a foreigner and wanting some status or some scholorship deal for an American university, with huge costs....the foreign status will help in some fashion. He was smart enough to figure that out. There are probably several thousand people over the past three decades who have done the same thing.
When it came time to get into Harvard, he pulls out the same bio, and it’s worth a million bucks.
So this entire argument and discussion....in an amusing sort of way, is over the methods that some 18-year old kid dreamed up and used to get his college education, and probably three or four of his first real jobs.
And you have to imagine this....Hillary Clinton at some point, came to grasp the same thing, but it was probably too late in the campaign to change the outcome. So she’s sitting....looking at some guy who did a bogus bio to get where he is today. Of all people....she has to be the one most upset.
You know you can deny the evidence all you want which points to Obama being born in Kenya, but to be a complete idiot about it apparently isn't too much of a stretch for this writer!
Agreement ... makes as much sense as anything else we know and suspect of the one. With the number of layers covering up the one, doubtful the truth will ever be known.
Heck, I know Asians who can barely speak English, who make better Americans than Obama. That's because they get it- America IS a special land, the greatest country in world history (other than maybe Israel).
No they don't . The birth announcement just says there was a birth. It doesn't say where the birth occurred.
It is interesting that this speculation is politically correct while speculation based on much, much more evidence available, that obaba was Kenyan-born is politically correct.
The author is wrong because the same rationale he uses to legitimize the newspaper accounts are used to undermine the Honolulu birth narrative: namely, the validity od each is predicated on the supplying source. The publicist’s bio and the newspaper accounts are both secondary, hearsay source. Whys does he elevate one over the other, especially with since there are verified cases of none Honolulu birth’s listed in the newspapers. Couple this with BHO savage efforts to prevent the release of his original LFBC and I think you have a strong presumption of a non U.S. Birth.
Bump, bookmark and copy.
The missing passport records and missing immigration entry records for the week of his alleged birth are the most astonishing and inexplicable events that I can think of in years. Taken together, these missing records clearly shows unprecedented suppression of records of the United States government.
There's nothing inexplicable about the alleged newspaper blurbs. Those could be the result of simply someone, such as Obama's grandmother, completing some vital statistics forms.
Good grief.
Let’s see. We have trails and snippets of information claiming Obama was born in Kenya. We have people recalling Obama saying he was born in Kenya. We have his grandmother saying he was born in Kenya, then changing her story, and we have a government official of Kenya saying Obama was born in Kenya. We have fraudulent birth certificates, hidden records, confusion about which hospital he was born at, or what he name of he hospital was, and we have a birth announcement that doesn’t tell us anything. Still, if it is easier to believe he was born in Honolulu, and later lied about being born in Kenya, go for it. Either way, the guy is a liar and a fraud. Of that there can be no question. But that just makes him a good Democrat.
So will any of the media from the left or right propose this scenario and demand Obama admit to this. He was a lying opportunist. Ends justified the means.
They could demand but can enough public pressure be placed.
We know he was born in Hawaii but lied to benefit so many times. this is the type of person he is. More proof of narcissistic personality disorder.
Plus he admired the father he hardly knew.
A “birth announcement” vs aunt sarah eye witness [who they have shut up]. Now the story is obama the commie wanted to be “exotic” listing kenya as birthplace. There is more evidence of the scumbag forger and fraud being born in kenya than hawaii but yet we still have to hear this exotic crap from “schoolers”.
No, that's a very unlikely scenario.
While it is certainly possible that an admissions office could be, depending on the university, quite delighted to readily admit foreign students, it is much more likely the reason is quite cynical: Foreign students virtually always pay full out-of-state tuition. Foreign students in the early 1980s had no access to standard federal loan and grant programs.
Also, Obama claims to have lots of student loans. He wouldn't have been eligible for federal ones if he was coming in as a foreign student. Indeed, I would be surprised if the state of New York or Columbia offered any type of support for foreign students other than the standard graduate-type assistance, such as teaching assistantships. Since Obama was an undergraduate, it would be unusual for him to receive any graduate support and there is certainly no indication that he did.
In short, there is no academic advantage for Obama to have claimed foreign status, and there is a distinct economic disadvantage.
I read an article today detailing a debate between Alan Keyes and Obama in 2004 for Illinois US Senator seat. There is no denial from Obama when accused of not being a NBC. Is this true? Of course, the AP articles appear to have been scrubbed regarding the incident.
This is a silly theory. I have worked with many university students from foreign countries. The admissions office cannot just "let them in" if students merely "say" they were born abroad.
Foreign students must have a visa stamped in their non-U.S. passport, as well as an I-20 form issued by the university, which expires when the student graduates or goes back to his/her country. Universities must comply with tough immigration laws when admitting foreign students, and the students themselves have to pay fees and fill out a lot of forms. There would be a long paper trail of documents that would have been checked carefully during the admission process.
I doubt that a lazy student like Barack would put in all that effort just to get admitted to university as a foreign student. In addition, he would have to show official transcripts from a school in his "home" country. I don't think an 18 year old Obama could pull it off.
By the way, what "benefits" do foreign students get? To most universities, these students are cash cows to be exploited. They usually have to pay full, non-resident tuition, insurance and other fees to the universities. They can't get government loans and have to jump through a lot of hoops just to get admitted.
Barack Obama is master of deception; however, the idea that he could enroll in a university as a foreign student by merely stating that he was born abroad is preposterous.
Release Obama’s Alien Registration file with US Dept of Homeland Security. His background bio will become crystal clear.
Wow......the media has done a good job!
There has been a major law enforcement department that has told us that the two pieces of hard proof that Obama has put forward to the American people...are in fact forgeries....and yet...here is Obama’s new narrative! C;mon people....why does he not have a legit birth certificate? Did they run out of them that week? Snap out of it patriots....we are being lied to.
I am so amazed by my fellow Americans.....And I am highly suspect of the new people at Brietbart and their motive for forming this new narrative. Andrew Brietbart must have truly been silenced.
I will never, never understand why that is proof of anything other than the string of characters was printed in a newspaper.
I was not born in a hospital. My birth certificate is stamped DELAY. My parents registered my birth weeks later. All the state registrar had to go on was their word -- does the registrar care enough to verify with a hospital? Does the newspaper double check with a hospital for each state-registrar listed hospital birth?
One thing I do know for sure because it was on the front page of a newspaper (that's different) is that Gov. Thomas Dewey of New York was elected president in 1948!
I heard audio of both Mr. Trump and Dr. Corsi saying that there is no record of Obama's mother being admitted to a hospital at that time. Does HIPAA make it a crime to acknowledge that so-and-so was in a hospital? If the proof is there, release it.. "all we are saying is give release a chance."
