A fairly impressive internet industry has sprung up claiming that Obama was born in either Kenya or Indonesia. This is nonsense which distracts from the broadly unexplored story of Obamas upbringing. This kind of nonsense has emerged because the McCain campaign chose not to raise the many questions about Barack Obamas numerous hard-left alliances. Barack Obama was born in Hawai`i, August 4, 1961 at Kapiolani Medical Center in Honolulu.
Obamas birth certificate posted online is exactly the same birth certificate everybody in Hawai`i gets from the State Department of Health. It is not forged. There is nothing unusual about the design or the texture. In addition to the birth certificate, the August 13, 1961 Honolulu Advertiser also carries an announcement of Obamas birth. The Honolulu Star-Bulletin also carries the same announcement. Both papers require submission of a copy of the birth certificate to print a birth announcement.
By refusing media requests for a look at the actual paper birth certificate, Obamas campaign gave sly backhanded assistance to the forgery hype.

Where is his original COLB, and why is it so secretive? Who is Barry's father? Is the father listed on the original (1961) COLB?
Under what name and nationality did he apply to Columbia and Harvard Law school? Who funded his education? With less-than stellar college records, and sealed ones at that, what was his exceptionalism that got him into Harvard? Since no one seems to remember anything about Barry while at Columbia, is there any confirmation that Barry did or did not run into Ayers while they lived in the same neighborhood in New York?
Can someone produce the passport he used to travel to Pakistan in the 1980's? How did an 'American' travel to Pakistan when Americans were banned from traveling there in that timeframe?
Why did he have false (indisputably false) entries on his Illinois Bar Association application regarding aliases, aka's, or "every known by any other name"? Dunham, Soetoro, Obama?
If he held dual citizenship, was it resolved when he turned 21? If so, how and when?
What is the affirmative evidence that he IS eligible to serve as President (citizenship, natural-born)? The lack of any evidence does not mean he IS qualified.
Even if Barry Soetero was born in Hawai'i, he was adopted or claimed by Lolo Soetero, and made an Indonesian citizen, which, coincidentally, is where my father was born. Since Indonesia doesn't allow dual citizenship, Barry lost US citizenship in that transaction. When he reached the age of majority, Barry was required to reclaim his citizenship, but there is no record of his having done so.
Thus, the most likely circumstance, absent additional paperwork, is the US has elected an Indonesian to be POTUS, and all you can do is try to distract!
There is also no known paperwork for a namechange to Barack Obama after his Barry Soetero days, so he may legally still be Barry. "Barack" claimed on his bar application that he hadn't be known under any aliases, which is a known falsehood.
Multiple internet-based document sleuths have conclusively shown that the COLB Barry produced was a forgery, so it is relevant to ask how many times Barry has produced false paperpwork. We already know he's willing to lie on important documents.

are you kidding?
If Governor Lingle ever said anything, her violation of his civil rights to privacy would lead to her being crucified on top of Diamond Head
Wrongo Lottie.....
No legal impact, but from a political marketing standpoint in 2008 it would have been lead weight.
Hmmm...
Seems like beating a dead horse now that the steaming pantload is elected.
Makes me suspicious....
We will never know. Now that he has the power, one will be created and this will go down a memory hole.
But, I know in my heart of hearts, this little bastard will not have a successful presidency. We have just found out that will never again be possible in this country for that to ever happen. Ever. Republican or Democrat. We are too far apart with absolutely no common ground. None, they might as well be from another planet.
I honestly don’t believe that we’ll ever be more than 50-50, try as one side or the other will try, and I seriously don’t believe that the one half that cherishes their liberties and the fruits of their hard labor will give it up easily, or ever. I say to those shits in the white house and the congress, go ahead and try. We’ll see what happens.
Who cares. He is the Annointed One, the Messiah, the King of Kings. He could stand on stage in front of thousands of people and t.v. cameras, dismember a living child and he would still be cheered and revered. The anti-Christ walks among us. I am not saying its BHO, but he is here.
Stanley Ann was too young to transfer citizenship to her offspring.
It really doesn’t matter anyway. Proof of having been born in the U.S. is not needed to be President as long as there is no reasonable proof he was born someplace else.
Prove it.
At the time an American mother and foreign father having a child in a foreign country required some residency requirements on the mother's part so that a US citizen who has moved out permanently won't necessarily have a child who is a US citizen. Obama's mother may or may not have met those residency requirements. (In fact I don't know whether a young mother could have met them at all)
If Obama was born in Kenya his citizenship wasn't automatic.
>>>One would think that if the Hawaiian birth certificate really indicated a foreign birth that Lingle wouldve gotten it public somehow.

Excerpt:
“State law (Hawai’i Revised Statutes §338-18) prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest in the vital record,” said DOH Director Chiyome Fukino.
“Therefore, I as Director of Health for the State of Hawai’i, along with the Registrar of Vital Statistics who has statutory authority to oversee and maintain these type of vital records, have personally seen and verified that the Hawai’i State Department of Health has Sen. Obama’s original birth certificate on record in accordance with state policies and procedures.”
So why does this quote not verify that Obama was born in Hawaii? Because all it says is the certificate is on record.
Years ago, Hawaii allowed for a Certification of Live Birth document to be recorded well after the birth of a foreign born individual. That is a person not born in Hawaii.
Laws regarding access to "vital records" vary from state to state.Some states have surprising lax laws and others have strict ones.In Massachusetts,for example,*anyone* can,without showing ID or anything,go into the state's Vital Records office in Boston and see *anyone's* birth,death,marriage or divorce certificate and,upon paying the stated fee,can get a *certified*,*official* copy of that record.I know,because I've done it several times.The only exception is that birth records of adoptees are sealed.
Hawaii's laws are far more strict than some.But Osama *surely* can,verbally and in writing,ask (insist,actually) that his birth records be open,at the very least,to certain well known and respected news organizations.
But he won't.And this could lead a reasonable person to ask "exactly *what* is he hiding,anyway?"
He's having too much fun with the tinfoil hat crowd.
