I was born overseas just after Obama and until I was around five, I travelled on my mother's U.S. Passport. However, inside my mother's passport was a picture of me as well as a copy of my BC from the U.S. State Department. So, again, how do you propose Obama entered the U.S. without any documentation?

I seriously doubt Hawaii or the Feds would have turned mommy with her newborn baby away after returning from overseas back in 1961 even if she did not have copy of an U.S. BC. All she would have had to show is some paperwork that the baby was hers like showing Obama's Kenyan BC. The officials may have told her to naturalize her baby and let her pass through, but she may not have followed their official instructions all the way and she only pursued an Hawaiian state issued birth record.

However, your idea of filing a FOIA request for State Department records to see if Obama was born abroad is a good idea.

Unless she stuffed Baby Obama into her carry on bag there is no way Customs & Immigration would have let Obama into the States. Both Moma Obama and Baby Obama would have been put back on a plane.

However, I got to admit that the Birth Announcement was a clever idea. Moma Obama must have sent an e-mail to the Hawaii newspaper to cover up the fact that her baby and future American President was born in Kenya.
