I don’t understand this issue. Do people actually think Obama is not really a citizen of the US or that his bc shows embarrasing things on it?

Despite any evidence to actually support that conclusion, some posters on FR actually do believe that Obama is trying to cover up the fact that he is Constitutionally ineligible to be President.

The "evidence" so far is a legitimate Hawaii birth certificate that some people will do anything to believe is a fake, and an unsubstantiated claim that Obama's Kenyan grandmother said that he was born there.

Other people have tried to make the argument that because Obama was, at one point, a dual citizen of the US and Kenya, he does not meet the Constitutional requirements for the Presidency (even though dual citizenship is perfectly legal under US law and the Constitution does not mention it as a bar to the Presidency).

Virginia, Citizen blade is a troll that rushes to the defense of Obama every time this subject comes up. You can safely ignore its ignorance.

Conspiracy theories are not always on the left, are they?

Wrong. They argue that if he was a citizen of Indonesia, which many believe he was at one point, he had to have relinguished his US citizenship because INDONESIA didn't recognize dual citizenship at that time.

It is NOT “unsubstantiated”. The claim is from three sources citing some 100 artifacts at variance with official Hawaiian documents. Instead, CB, the problem is that either an official document was tampered with to an astonishing degree, or an astonishing forgery was created.

It's not a birth certificate, but rather a certification of live birth. It only reflects the latest data in the database, not necessarily everything on the orginal birth certificate. That original birth certificate would show his adoption, change of name, and subsequent change (back?) to Barak H. Obama.

Then Obama should deliver his Birth Certificate to Phil Berg and the issue would be over in a NY minute.
