Gee the prez has a big head. Big head bigger than the other players in that photo. Wonder why his big head is so big in that team photo?

Afro? It was the 70s after all.

Which of the three that have so far been posted on the Internet as ‘the genuine’ COLB do you think is legitimate? There have been three different images posted and only two of the three could be from a single souce. All three have some diffecne in the other two. And not one of the images shows ‘amended’ on the front as it would if genuine from Hi dept of Health since Barry’s records have been amended at least twice since early childhood. So, again, which of the three images do you consider the genuine article. And BTW, I personally called DOH and they told me that no document was recorded as having been made and sent out on the day supposedly stamped on the front of two of the three images. So, finally, which imgae do you think is a genuine COLB from Hawaii, without fraudulent manipualtions done to make the image?

Compare the width of the jaw/chin on the Barry in the picture where is wearing #25 basketball uniform, to the jaw int he photo you posted. IIRC both nose and jawline widen as one ages. Barry’s jaw appears to have grown longer and more narrow.

And in the center of this photo, you can see one of our star players of the time. His patented 'limp wristed overhand' throw would cause the opposing team to lose focus with laughter, allowing our team to score another basket....

The guys behind him look photoshopped in and the kid to his left isn’t wearing the same uniform (pinstripe is missing from the collar and shoulder area).

To be honest with you, I really don't trust or distrust any of the images I've seen on the Internet, because I'm not a document science expert. I only know that birth certificates are the most common and definitive form of personal identification available. I've got one. Everyone in my family has one.

I have learned that Certifications of Live Birth are not uncommon, and sometimes used of place of originals when the originals are unavailable, for whatever reason. In Obama's case (he being President of the US, and the eligibility for that office being in part subject to Constitutional requirements of natural born citizenship) I'd just like a simple explanation as to why the original is not available. That's all. I don't think that makes me a wild-eyed conspiratorial "birther". I just want an answer, and I don't understand why that's so difficult for Obama to provide.

There are likely legitimate reasons why the original might not be available. What troubles me is the secrecy. I think Americans deserve an answer, and I'm tired of people who ask those questions being treated as though they were crazy.

I feel as though I’ve seen this picture before only
it was about the blond kid to the left (our right)
of Obama. He is “somebody”... like an actor or a
politician.

The person with the “fro” does not look like Obama
and certainly doesn’t “fit” into the picture.

Has anyone authenticated the story of the pickup
game?

Where are the names of the rest of the team from
the photo?

My opinion.

The shadow looks more like a tan line to me.

He is always pictured with white(er) kids yet no one in Hawaii can come forward who was at the hospital who remembers this black child being born to a white woman. It’s almost as if it never happened (in Hawaii).
