The dust jacket on one of the dozen autobiographies he's written clearly stated that he was born in Kenya.

That wasn't the dust jacket. It was part of the press kit prepared by his agent.

There are videos of Obozo’s grandmother stating categorically he was born in Nairobi, Kenya, she knows because she witnessed his birth.

Audio. It wasn't his grandmother and that wasn't what she said. That was the interviewer putting words in her mouth. It would have been crazy (and crazy expensive) for Barack Sr to bring his pregnant wife to his birth village where she could meet his other wife.

This is correct. Obama Sr was constantly begging his father for money. Obama Sr couldn't pay for a plane ticket, and Madelyn Dunham never would have done.

There are only three likely places that Obama could have been born, and Kenya isn't one of them.

He was possibly born in Hawaii, though it doesn't fit all the evidence.

He was possibly born in Canada, which does fit all the evidence.

He was possibly born in Washington State, which also fits all the evidence.

As Stanley Ann Dunham's aunt Eleanor lived in Blaine Washington, and as it was common practice in that era to send women with embarrassing pregnancies off to live with relatives, it is plausible that Stanley Ann was staying with Aunt Eleanor in Blaine Washington when she gave birth to Barry.

A letter from Barack Sr demonstrates that the plan was to give him up for adoption, but clearly Stanley Ann changed her mind about that.
