google “newspaper archive” and find one to look at their database.
Reading the Constitution, it is apparent that Obama could be either a British or Kenyan citizen even if he was born in Hawaii and his mother could apply to be a Kenyan citizen.
Frankly, without documents to compare it to, my only conclusion is that it is a forgery.
That site must be getting pounded right now. Can’t get in. Will try later.

interesting read into the politics of colonial and post colonial kenya
I think all he meant was that January 20 is Inauguration Day when there is an inauguration.
Thanks for posting this thread....not as much reading to do!
Jeez...ya leave for a few hours and it takes days to catch up!
“In October 1963, Nigeria altered its relationship with the United Kingdom by proclaiming itself a federal republic and promulgating a new constitution.”
Barry being 47 and the 44th? or the Republic? or the font? or the mispelled village? or the wrong age for papa? or the high pixalation around the photograph objects?
My conclusion: FORGERY- it needs to be rejected first at the FR.
Just for comparison to Kenya
And to quote Alice: It gets curiouser and curiouser.
someone needs to find out what was the title of the country was on other registrations of birth on this day to see if they match
Great work! Thanks.
I'm sure a lot of paperwork occurred during the transition including creating the forms for the new nation and transferring the information from the British documents. This was before computers, and creating new birth/citizen certificates for all Kenyans would have been quite a process.
If the document is fake, I don't think it will be debunked because forms were being created and information being transferred before the official independence day. There are even newspaper articles talking about the transition to independence years before it happened. It would be stupid to become a new nation and not know who your new nation's citizens are from the start.
There was/is a thread posted today about WND and it’s comparison docs. I didn’t read it so I can’t give you a link.
