Jay McKinnon, a self-described Department of Homeland Security-trained document specialist, has implicated himself in the production of fraudulent Hawaii birth certificate images similar to the one endorsed as genuine by the Barack Obama campaign, and appearing on the same blog entry where the supposedly authentic document appears.
The evidence of forgery and manipulation of images of official documents, triggered by Israel Insider's revelation of the collection of Hawaii birth certificate images on the Photobucket site and the detective work of independent investigative journalists and imaging professionals in the three weeks since the publication of the images, implicate the Daily Kos, an extreme left blog site, and the Obama campaign, in misleading the public with official-looking but manipulated document images of doubtful provenance.
The perceived unreliability of the image has provoked petitions and widespread demands for Obama to submit for objective inspection the paper versions of the "birth certificate" he claimed in his book Dreams from My Father was in his possession, as well as the paper version of the Certificate of Live Birth for which the image on the Daily Kos and the Obama "Fight the Smears" website was supposedly generated.
Without a valid birth certificate, Obama cannot prove he fulfills the "natural born citizen" requirement of the Constitution, throwing into doubt his eligibility to run for President.
McKinnon, who says he is 25-30 years old, operates a website called OpenDNA.com and uses the OpenDNA screen name on various web sites and blogs, including his comments and diary on The Daily Kos. In recent years he has divided his time between Long Beach, California and Vancouver, British Columbia. He is a Democratic political activist, frequent contributor to the left wing Daily Kos blog, and a fervent Barack Obama supporter.

UH OH..... looks like a hoax of Maureen Dowd, too bad, ‘cause the info is probably roughly accurate..... “fake but accurate”!!
I was wondering why that column didn’t sound like the usual prissy snide-fest from Maureen Dowd. It was too serious, without the Junior High School catty remarks.
Someone wanted to put this material in play, but this sure isn’t the way to do it (unless it’s pre-emptive strike from a Soros-groupie who wants to discredit this whole line of inquiry.
That’s the biggest problem - this apparent hoax gets discredited and then all the real scandals of Obama fundraising get ignored because the MSM and RINOs are running scared.
His mom and dad met in Russian class correct?
Why were they taking russian? To help the American government or the Russian Government?l Sounds like two commie lovers loving communism.
There weren’t too many Americans studying Russian around 1960 unless they were communists or fellow travelers...... then there was Lee Harvey Oswald, who proved to be a commie assassin.
"In 1967 when Barack Obama was 3 years old, Ann Dunham married Indonesian student in UH Lolo Soetoro, so that's why there was a "Soetoro" in Dunham's name. Dunham and Soetoro divorced in the late 1970s. In 1992, the 50-year-old Stanley Ann Dunham earned a Ph.D. in anthropology for her 1067-pages-long dissertation Peasant blacksmithing in Indonesia:"
3 years old in 1967 means a birth date in 1964, not 1961 as shown in the LA Times blog birth certificate.
Could he have been born in 1964 after his father returned to Kenya and if so where was Stanley Ann Dunham when he was born?
yup Enchante , .. I concur ( and glad I stayed on to see yer post )
as in basketball ( and politico-bare knuckles sh*t ) , I look for “the action away from The Ball”
we’ve gotta be onTop of this Thing , .. this won’t be like unmasking Ward Churchill *guffaw!* , .. or anything else , I can imagine , .. the powers that wish to bring down The USofA are all-out for Barry “The Fraud” Dunham
For a topline idiot, Obama has managed to make himself the Dim nominee and the favorite to win the election.
Is it possible that an official COLB from Hawaii would give "Soetoro" as the name for the candidate now known as Barak Obama? Depending upon how he was adopted, that would seem plausible. If that is indeed the case, Barak might argue that the certificate he posted was "fake but accurate" since he obviously wasn't born with the Soetoro name. I doubt the media would care that a "fake but accurate document" is a fake document.
“...I doubt the media would care that a “fake but accurate document” is a fake document.”
I imagine the media couldn’t care less...I think it’s all about his ego. He’s made up this persona as a black, presented himself as African-American and as BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA - and to be forced to present the public with proof of ID that shows him to be BARRY DUNHAM or BARRY SOETORO - possibly more Kenyan/Indonesian by nationality would blow such a big hole in the created persona, he would be deflated like the balloon full of hot air he really is.
Beckwith has it right. His opening statement on THE OBAMA FILE says it all:
Barack Hussein Obama
A privileged African-American, who has not shared the black American experience
By birth, blood and training, a Muslim, who has been a member of a Black-African church for 20 years
A socialist whose politics are rooted in Marx and whose tactics were conceived by Alinsky
A master at shaping his own mythology and completely unqualified to be Commander in Chief
I’m not able to find that Dowd column online, can someone post a link please?
Ah, that would explain why I can’t find it.
Very interesting that someone would fake this.
It’s too easily debunked to play, so what was the goal?
Ah, but if the COLB says "Barry Soetoro" that wouldn't disprove Barack's statement that he was born "Barack Hussein Obama II"; Barack could reasonably(*) claim that the name on the COLB would have confused things, so he wanted to show a birth certificate with the name he was born with.
(*) Well, liberals would think it was reasonable anyway.
I don't really see how the (hypothetical) fact that Barack once bore the name "Soetoro" would hurt him. As such, I don't think liberals would hold a "cover-up" of that information against him. Instead, they'd view conservatives' efforts to pry into such matters as a demonstration that conservatives are evil.
As a freeper public service:
THE MAUREEN DOWD COLUMN SEEMS TO BE FAKE
There is, as yet, no verifiable copy of it online with the other Dowd columns.
No idea what the game was here.
Good analysis.
Although still married to Kezia in 1960, Senior marries fellow student Anna Dunham. Senior is now legally a bigamist. Over his lifetime and through several wives, Senior eventually returns to Kezia.
Dunham is eighteen years old and an anthropology student. They are both students at the East-West Center and they met in a Russian-language course at a time when the Russian language was inextricably mixed up with communism.
His own father and mothers wedding in Hawaii may not have been properly documented. “How and when the marriage occurred remains a bit murky, a bill of particulars that I have never quite had the courage to explore,” Obama writes in his memoir.
It’s understandable that Obama overlooks the particulars, since Ann Dunham was probably a minor when Barack Obama Sr., an already married 24-year-old, impregnated her?
Obama weighed eight pounds, two ounces when he was born on August 4, 1961 (p. 22 of Dreams from My Father), so we can assume he went close to full term, or nine months.
His parents marriage took place six months before his birth on February 2nd, 1961. Nine months before Obamas birth would be early November 1960, about three to four weeks before Ann Dunhams 18th birthday on November 29, 1960.
It appears that Barack Sr., a married man of about 24, almost certainly impregnated a 17-year-old Dunham.
Barack Obamas father was not a U.S. Citizen and Obamas mother was only 18 when Obama was born, which means though she had been a U.S. Citizen for 10 years, (or citizen perhaps because of Hawaii being a territory) the mother fails the test for being so for at least 5 years **prior to** Barack Obamas birth, but *after* age 16.
It doesnt matter *after* . In essence, she was not old enough to qualify her son for automatic U.S. Citizenship. At most, there were only 2 years elapsed since his mother turned 16 at the time of Barack Obamas birth when she was 18 in Hawaii.
His mother would have needed to have been 16+5= 21 years old, at the time of Barack Obamas birth for him to have been a natural-born citizen. As aformentioned, she was a young college student at the time and was not. Barack Obama was already 3 years old at that time his mother would have needed to have waited to have him as the only U.S. Cizen parent. Obama instead should have been naturalized, but even then, that would still disqualify him from holding the office.
*** Naturalized citizens are ineligible to hold the office of President. *** Though Barack Obama was sent back to Hawaii at age 10, all the other info does not matter because his mother is the one who needed to have been a U.S. Citzen for 10 years prior to his birth on August 4, 1961, with 5 of those years being after age 16. Further, Obama may have had to have remained in the country for some time to protect any citizenship he would have had, rather than living in Indonesia. Now you can see why Obamas aides stopped his speech about how we technically have more than 50 states, because it would have led to this discovery. This is very clear cut and a blaring violation of U.S. Election law."

This would account for the 3 year discrepancy and how they lied in the article and said that he was 3 in 1967. They tried to make it look like he was born in 1964 maybe so that the mother would have been 21 when in fact she was 18.
This I think is it.
Even if he was born in Hawaii the site claims that he isn't eligible.
