I don’t know how much you can make of this. Compared with most of the other problems, this seems relatively minor.
I had a six-year-old friend when I was a boy whose name was proudly given as xxx xxx xxx III.
On the other hand, I had a cousin whose name was xxx xxx Jr. His father had the same name, and so did his father’s father. But he explained that he didn’t use III because his grandfather was dead, which advanced his father to plain xxx xxx and himself to xxx xxx Jr.
My cousin gave his oldest son the same name, and they followed the same custom. It’s a bit confusing, since some of the people I knew are now dead—my cousin and my cousin’s father. But they thought it would look kind of King-of-England snobby to start calling themselves xxx xxx V.
Obama has dropped the II in recent years. No reason why he could not have asked that it be dropped on his passport.
Obviously this is all speculative, but I don’t see the absence of II as being especially sinister—especially considering all of the other problems, including the obvious fact that both of the COLBs posted on-line are forgeries.
Another anomaly on top of more anomalies, the whole thing starts to smell.
We just renewed our passports. They mailed original birth certificates along with the passport application. The name is identical to birth records. There is a II on one of the BC, same with the passport.

Vogt's forensic examination of the birth certificate number on the White House-released long form concluded that the last "1" in the number "10641," as seen in the figure below, is a grayscale image, while the remaining numbers are not. This is, he says, "irrefutable proof that the certificate number is a composite of two numbers and hence a forgery."
... In Boxes 20 and 22 on the Obama long-form birth certificate, the stamps recording the date the local registrar and registrar general accepted the birth certificate have two different colors on both lines where there should be no color at all. Also, the color differences are evident in Box 22, both in the printed text of the box and in the stamp recording the date that the local registrar accepted the birth certificate, Vogt says, as seen below:
