A private investigator in Hawaii has uncovered the divorce decree for Barack Obama's father and mother, which indicates they had "one child under the age of eighteen, born in Kenya." That is the report of Ed Hale of PlainsRadio.com, an Internet radio site which has focused upon the natural born Citizen challenges to Obama's presidential eligibility.
Hale announced this during his evening Internet broadcast on PlainsRadio.com, Tuesday, 12/30 and confirmed it with I.O. in an online interview, later that night. He reported that certified copies of this documentation have been sent from Hawaii by the investigator to himself and four others. Hale is to receive his copy today, Wednesday, 12/31 and plans to post it graphically on the site, during the day. He will also discuss this on a special Internet broadcast, between 6 pm and 10 pm Central Time, tonight. The site streams audio as soon as it is accessed via Web browser.

The Texan Internet entrepreneur relates he got fed up with the lack of documentation on Obama and decided to discuss ideas with his radio audience. His offer to hire an investigator was met with piecemeal sums of money from listeners to his broadcasts. Hale said some of the information one would expect to find was not available. For example, documentation from Obama's mother Stanley Ann's divorce to her second husband, Lolo Soetoro, had vanished. Hale speculates, the reason this forthcoming 1964 divorce decree had not also been "scrubbed" could be that the divorce had been filed not by Obama's mother, but by Barack H. Obama, Sr. Thus, it may have been overlooked by any plumbers for Obama.
Hale does admit to incomplete certainty of his investigator's work until he receives it, partially due to the PI's accent, the telephone connection, and his slight hearing impediment. However, he is very confident of what he will receive during the day. Mark S. McGrew, who writes about Obama's natural born Citizen problems for Pravda.ru, accompanied Hale in his broadcast and also expressed confidence. McGrew had sought publication in numerous American news outlets, but they turned down his articles referring to Obama's apparent ineligibility. Russia's Pravda however, decided his effort to find and report the truth was not to be redlined.
As often related, Barack Obama, due simply to his U.K. citizenship at birth via his Kenyan father, is not a natural born Citizen of America, by definition and the original intent of that term. The Supreme Court has turned down cases which make this point, but according to a September decision in a lower federal court (regarding John McCain's eligibility problem), this would be due to a question of jurisdiction, until Congress is to certify the Electoral College vote on January 8. Further action is to occur, after this date. You may read about this in previous I.O. articles and the sites linked in its sidebar.
Meanwhile, on the question of Obama's place of birth, professionals dealing with documents and forensic evidence have testified that the online "certificate of live birth" provided by Obama is not identifiable evidence of American birth. Now, if Obama's parents' divorce decree states that he was born in Kenya (as his Kenyan grandmother has repeatedly stated), the second epistemological wheel is coming off his vehicle to the White House.
Will Congress pay attention and do its Constitutional duty?

Dude, it's 2008. Get a PI who has a blackberry, or internet connection.
It's the internet. If you don't want people to comment, don't post thoughts on forums where people are allowed to comment. Specifically if it is a story with such an amazing lack of credibility. His PI can't type him an email to tell him what he found?
How can anyone trust a guy who uses "BLOCKBUSTER!" "New breakthrough, OMG wild!!" "can't yet reveal it...stay tuned...yayaya".
Why would either 0 or his father's birthplace/citenship even be mentioned in a divorce decree? Maybe if it was pertinent to a settlement in some way, but there was no alimony nor child support asked or granted.
Hale is so full of BeeEss---!!
F - A - X.
This thread reminds me: whatever happend to the guy who claims he gave Obama a blow job? You know, the guy who had a different phone number every three months?
I agree with you.

I mean Larry Sinclair.
The other possibility is that it is a hoax.

Nah, just blessed/cursed with his name.
We sure do have a bunch of ignorant, pushy noobies here lately trying to blunt the effectiveness of FR.
If you don’t like the thread’s message, GTF outta here.
I can imagine getting paged at a airport or someyhing like that.
Well, it appears to depend on what you have to look at in the mirror in the morning!
Second class mail was abolished over 40 years ago.
These kinds of docs are not covered by FOIA.
Look, this is nothing in the annals of FR lore.
Remember the weeks of speculating that Gary Condit's wife has no thumbs? We survived that, didn't we?
