If he wasn't born in Hawaii, why would there be a birth announcement?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Has anyone seen an original newspaper, or are these opinions based upon images seen on the Internet? ( Just wondering.)

Two very likely explanations:

The grandparents arranged for a COLB. ( A COLB can be issued for a child born out of state or out of the nation.) The Hawaii Department of Records routinely reported it to the newspaper.

Or..

Obama’s parents or grandparents reported it to the newspaper themselves. Geeze! In my county, the families will **pay** to take out a quarter page ad to announce a birth, death, anniversary, or even a birthday. What's so odd about that?? Nothing! Why would it be odd for Obama’s family to phone in and report his birth to the newspaper?

Finally, it has been proven that Obama’s parents never resided at the address shown in the newspaper ad now circulating in the Internet. And..oddly...Twins born on the same day don't show up. What happened to the birth announcement of these twins? Now that's odd!

Interesting...I had not heard that his parents never actually resided at that address. That is curious for sure...

I imagine someone could technically fake the microfilm of the papers and replace the official film, as paranoid as that sounds. You'd have to know where all the microfilms were to replace them all and hope that no one came forward with an original newspaper from that date.

The story about the Kalanianaole address not being associated with his mother or her parents is very disturbing...
