Is Barack Obama a United States citizen, and is he eligible to run for President of the United States, or did he present a forged government document to verify a citizenship he does not possess? For a few weeks now these questions have been swirling around the internet. The questions have become so prominent that Obama addressed the issue on his “Fight the Smears” website. Of course, in typical Obama fashion it is becoming clear that nothing is as it seems.
His site says the following:
The truth about Barack’s birth certificate
Lie: Obama Is Not a Natural Born Citizen
Truth: Senator Obama was born in Hawaii in 1961, after it became a state on August 21st, 1959. Obama became a citizen at birth under the first section of the 14th Amendment “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
There it is, the Certification of Live Birth. Case closed. Or is it? Two sources have raised what has proven to be very interesting, and troubling questions. Polarik, a blogger from Townhall.com, and the israelinsider, have both posted compelling evidence that can no longer be ignored, or brushed off as ridiculous.
Friday, June 20, 2008, Polarik, who claims to have extensive experience in the world of computers, printers, and typewriters, wrote “given a set of printed letters, I can discern what kind of device made them. Printer output is quite different from the text created by a graphics program, and even if a document looks “official,” it may not be.” He goes on to claim that anyone could have produced this document, and then proceeds to point out every flaw imaginable with this alleged certificate. Because his article is so detailed, and technical, I advise my readers to follow the link and read it for yourself. Have no fear. He has visuals to help you make sense of it.
Yesterday morning I read an article in the Israelinsider, written by Reuven Koret. Koret’s article eliminates any lingering question as to whether or not the Certificate of Live Birth is a forgery/fake.
Koret begins his article by linking to Photobucket, an image gathering website, where millions upload images to share with others, or post in various places such as websites, etc. It shows variations of the same Certificate of Live Birth presented by the Obama camp. One has Obama’s birthplace listed as Antarctica, while another shows one issued by the government of North Korea. This certainly lends credibility to Polariks argument that the Certificate of Live Birth was created by some sort of computer program, that anyone can use.
According to Koret, Janice Okubo, Director of Communications of the State of Hawaii Department of Health made clear that no birth certification, or certification of live birth is transmitted electronically, and that all certificates of live birth contain an embossed seal and registrar’s signature on the back of the document.
He then compares the 1961 Certification of Live Birth, presented as authentic on the Obama website, to one certifying the Hawaiian birth of a Patricia Decosta. The similarities and differences are quite noticeable.
Both contain a green bamboo background, though one is noticeably darker. Both contain borders that are noticeably different. Obama’s is green, and Decosta’s is black. Polarik did a fabulous job of pointing out the obvious flaws on the border of Obama’s alleged certificate.
The most compelling and disturbing items of note are the lack of an embossed seal and the registrar’s signature, on the copy being presented by Obama. Decosta’s seal, even faded with time is quite prominent, as is the registrar’s signature that bleeds through to the front of the document. The lack of these two items makes it clear that the copy presented by Obama is in fact a fake.
This raises many more questions and concerns. Why would Obama knowingly lie, and present a forged government document as official? Why does Obama refuse to present his real birth certificate, for inspection – the actual piece of paper that can be handled by reporters? Is Barack Obama a citizen of the United States? Is he eligible for the highest office of this great nation? Lastly, what laws has Obama and his camp broken by knowingly presenting a forged government document?
Hell, even astrologers on Youtube claim it’s a fake.

This story is WAY beyond FR. All Hillary’s broad’s boards have it posted.
Better yet ask both candidates to prove it, maybe we can get a redo on both.
Forgot </sarc> tag.
We need to see the actual certificate number.
He smoked a lot of dope at Occidental College in LA
Why aren’t Mexican anchor babies Mexican?
Our government considers them Americans and so does Mexico probably because they export their scum and don’t want them back.
Thanks. I wasn’t aware of this resolution, and who proposed it:
“That’s the thing that keeps me from dismissing this whole thing. There was absolutely no logical reason for Democrat Sen. Claire McCaskill, a strong Obama backer, to have introduced a resolution recognizing McCain as a “natural born citizen.” Even if, by some unimaginable miracle, she awoke one morning consumed with interests of fairness for the Republican Party’s nominee, why the co-sponsors—Hillary, Obama, Leahy and Coburn? What would they see in such meaningless theatre? Maybe not so meaningless after all.”
We are in total agreement here:
Exactly.
“A “certified copy” of any recorded document always has an embossed (raised) seal with the clerk’s signature - certifying that it is a faithful copy of the original.
If the document copy isn’t certified in the way described above, it is worthless as “proof” of anything.
What sensible person would think he could legitimately present a deed to real estate that isn’t the original or a certified copy as proof that he owns it?”
Posting a thread on FreeRepublic doesn’t have a thing to do with the issues at hand.
First of all, all the Mainstream Articles related to social security and the like...(you know, the issues?) are posted before most of us can blink. I actually USE those links on OTHER sites where middle voters might be.
Just like middle voters might actually see blogs and the like, but a thread on Freerepublic is the epitome of preaching to the choir. Just like there is no point in me going to dailykos to “talk some sense into them”.
Everyone here, for the most part, knows Obama is a hard left 70s styled liberal. That is exactly what the middle voters need to see, but they aren’t going to see it in a thread on FR, and as yet, it isn’t in an article to be found in most mainstream media anyway. What articles there have been on his social security and tax plans have been posted MULTIPLE times.
Meanwhile, people are dorking around with Muslim emails and the like.
I’ll post my thread and links on other sites where the middle might be affected thank you very much, everything I would post is already here. For that matter that is what i USE Free Republic for, and a chance to talk strategy. Which was the whole point in the first place. I’d be happy to post a VANITY post with my intelligent analysis, but that is not proper etiquette.
But of course, you have gotten so defensive because someone thinks time could be spent somewhere else, you are stuck on an elementary school argument about posting threads.
I’ll instead work on trying to educate some who don’t pay attention on what Obama’s actual policies are going to do to this country in hopes that they don’t actually vote for the man.
Good luck spending time chasing the smoking gun on Obama being a Kenyan, I’ll be the first to congratulate whoever breaks the story and admit I’m wrong.
Meanwhile it is 4 months or so to the election and the clock is ticking, ticking, ticking.
You do not understand how it works. It is usually studious bloggers doing the nitty gritty research. If it has legs, it will be picked up by some in the conservative media like American Thinker or Michelle Malkin or NRO’s ‘the corner’. From there, Rush and Hannity will see it. and so it goes.
Case in point:
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2036378/posts
Obama’s is missing the date accepted by the registrar and the crimped seal and the registrar’s signature block on the back.
Hah! Go for it. If you can launch a torpedo into the side of the Good Ship Obama, I salute you.
Before I climb aboard the Birth Certificate bandwagon, though, someone is going to have to explain to me how this plays out.
I'm pretty certain that the State of Hawaii has confirmed that an Obama birth certificate exists. Therefore, the question of a foreign birth is not an issue. What it comes down to is the wording on the birth certificate...
How can this possibly be useful?
So what if it says he's white? Then it was because of his evil white relatives that forced this tag on him...
What if his given name was Barry Durham? -- again, his evil white relatives were keeping him down.
What if there was another father? -- well, not exactly Mr. Obama's fault on that one - and it would've been unseemly for all involved to have brought it up.
Now if the father's name was Osama Bin Laden -- then sure, that would be interesting, and perhaps it would help us avoid a Star Wars moment in the future (In my James Earl Jones voice: 'Barak... I am your father...') -- but other than that, this search for the Obama Birth Certificate holy grail seems like a dead end. Nothing good will come out of it -- just backlash sympathy for the Obamanation.
You do realize that there are a lot of us don't you? The entire freaking Internet can do more than 2 things at a time.
You protesters seem to be protesting for all of the wrong reasons. Perhaps y'all are Obamie Boyz?
If someone is running for the freaking Presidency they should show their real birth certificate. End of story. But of course being a liberal you don’t have to prove a damn thing.
>>Meanwhile, people are dorking around with Muslim emails and the like.<<
Pardon me for being dense, but could you please clarify what you meant by that remark? Were you referring to something related to Oblaha or to threads on FR about muslim emails and connections?
Thanks
I understand completely how it works. My point was I think it is a red herring, therefore it wouldn’t matter if got to the national media.
So posting an obvious forgery as proof of citizenship matters not to you. It matters very much to others.
BTTT
1) had sealed divorce records of his Democrat primary opponent Blair Hull exposed, revealing accusations of wife-beating and forcing Hull out of the primary, and
2) had sealed divorce records of his Republican opponent Jack Ryan exposed, revealing accusations of want to perform public sex acts and forcing Ryan out of the general election.
It seems that Obama can't win without destroying his opponent by exposing sealed private records. So now, people want Obama's records exposed.
