August 8, 2008 — EARLY EDITION. Karl Rove’s plans to disrupt the inauguration of a Democratic president

For several months, the right-wing blogs have been abuzz with rumors that Democratic presumptive presidential nominee Barack Obama, Jr. is not eligible to be President of the United States because of various claims: 1) A Hawaii certificate of live birth (COLB) is insufficient evidence to show that Obama was born in the United States, that is, in the state of Hawaii, on August 4, 1961; 2) that the COLB is a forgery; and 3) Obama is hiding something about his date and place of birth.

The Obama campaign produced a copy of the COLB and posted it on the campaign’s website to put to rest the rumors. The campaign also stated: “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

The statement from the Obama campaign and the copy of the COLB (above) should have been the end of the story. It was not.

WMR has recently learned from sources close to Republican operatives who work with Karl Rove, George W. Bush’s former White House political adviser and long-time GOP dirty tricks manipulator, that Rove has something up his sleeve that could throw the 2008 presidential election and the country into a constitutional tail spin.

Rove has been working overtime to dig up anything that could be sued to derail the inauguration of Obama on January 20, 2009, if he wins the presidency, as is now anticipated from months of recent polling data.

The flurry of interest in information about Obama’s birth certificate and his parents’ vital statistics was part of Rove’s desire to unearth a “smoking gun” to both disrupt the Democratic primary by sharing the information with the Clinton campaign and use it as a weapon in the event that Obama won the nomination and the presidency.

Barack Obama Sr.’s polygamous life style in Kenya and abroad has only added to the doubts about Barack Obama Jr.’s native citizen status. The elder Obama was the father of eight children by four women. Barack Obama Jr. has a half sister, Auma Obama, the child of Obama’s father and first wife in Kenya, Kezia, who now lives in Bracknell in the United Kingdom. Auma Obama lives near Reading in the United Kingdom. According to The New York Times’ Richard Cohen, the elder Obama reportedly married an American woman named Ruth who he met at Harvard after his marriage to Ann Dunham, Barack Jr.’s mother, ended in divorce. Obama reportedly has a half-brother from that marriage named Mark Ndesandjo who lives in Nanshan, China an is an businessman. Another son named David from that marriage was killed in a motorcycle accident.

Obama has three half-brothers from his father’s marriage to Kezia: Bernard, Abo, and Roy Obama. After studying at a madrassa in Nairobi, Roy Obama now works in the United States as an accountant, according to London’s Mail on Sunday. Barack Obama, Sr. remained married to Kezia while also married to Barack Obama Jr.’s mother Ann. In fact, the elder Obama was still married to Kezia and Ann when he married Ruth, the woman he met at Harvard. Obama’s wife Ruth Nidesand runs a kindergarten in Nairobi.

Obama’s international relatives do not end with Kenya. His mother, Ann remarried an Indonesian Lolo Soetoro and they had a daughter named Maya Soetoro-Ng, who is married to a Chinese-Canadian film professor and lives in Hawaii.

WMR has learned that British intelligence has a copy of a birth certificate registering Obama’s birth in Mombasa, Kenya. On June 10, 2008, WMR reported on the planned GOP tactic: “The rumor that will be advanced by the GOP operatives will be that Obama was not born in Hawaii in August 1961 but in Mombasa, Kenya. A birth certificate showing Obama was born at a maternity hospital in Mombasa will be produced and it will indicate that Obama’s mother was not Ann Dunham of Kansas who met Barack Obama, Sr. at the University of Hawaii and married on February 2, 1961. A photograph purporting to be that of Dunham will reportedly be produced and will show the 18-year old woman wearing a bikini on the beach at Waikiki in July 1961 and will show her not pregnant. Barack Obama was born on August 4, 1961 in Hawaii.

The planted GOP story will claim that Obama is the son not of Dunham but of a light-skinned Kenyan Arab woman and Barack Obama, Sr. and that he was not born in Hawaii but in Mombasa, making him ineligible to be president since the Constitution requires all Presidents to be native born in the United States.

Obama’s parents were divorced in 1963 and Obama’s father was killed in an automobile crash in Kenya in 1982. Dunham died in 1995 from cancer at the age of 52.

The information about Obama, Sr. and the light-skinned Kenyan Arab woman who will be falsely described as Obama’s actual mother will use as a basis purported MI-6 British intelligence files held on Obama’s father in 1961. Kenya was a British colony until it attained independence in December 1963. Britain kept close tabs on any Kenyans who were politically active having fought a war with Mau Mau rebels from 1952 to 1960.”

Die-hard Hillary Clinton supporters may offer up the Obama birth certificate doubts during the Democratic convention as a way to get Obama to step aside if he cannot put the doubts to rest and advance Hillary Clinton as the runner-up winner of votes during the primary. However, after Obama selects a vice presidential running mate, that individual would claim the mantle in the event Obama stood down. Such an event would open up a conventional floor fight unlike any seen in modern times.

However, WMR has learned from sources who have been advised of Rove’s plans that such a Democratic Party civil war scenario is not Rove’s current desire. Rove, apparently, is figuring on disrupting the Electoral College in the aftermath of an Obama in in November and throw the election into the House of Representatives and the federal courts in January. If questions remain about Obama’s birth status and citizenship, the inauguration scheduled for January 20 could be postponed and that means that George W. Bush and Dick Cheney would remain in the White House until the constitutional crisis is resolved.

The Obama campaign and the Democratic Party should produce ironclad documentation proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that Barack Obama, Jr. was born in Honolulu on August 4, 1961 to Ann Dunham and Barack Obama, Sr. Without a paper-based birth certificate from, preferably, both the hospital and the state of Hawaii, Rove will push his plans to disrupt the inauguration and keep Bush and Cheney in office until a final resolution.

The documentation from Hawaii faces another hurdle. Republican Governor Linda Lingle is the first elected Republican Governor of Hawaii in the state’s history. As Governor, Lingle is in a position to manipulate Hawaii’s records to assist Rove’s plans. And Rove’s past indicates that he will use Lingle and her GOP status and links to neocon interests to maximum advantage. The Obama campaign must act fast to deep-six Rove’s plans for November, December, January, and possibly longer.
