Someone please explain again why the (2) newspaper birth announcements do not lend credibility to Obama’s American birth? I am at a loss to understand how these could be fradulent, planted or anticipatory of baby Obama’s future presidency.

Try this: Obama most likely was born in Hawaii but the people we have been told were his parents are not the ones we have been told.

The guy from Kenya allowed his name to be used, but he was not the biological father. This would explain one reason to hide the original documents, and why no one remembers the birth. Mixed race people are not unusual in Hawaii, but a Kenyan father would be exotic and memorable.

Or perhaps this: Stanley Dunham was actually Obama's father, and his mother an unknown woman with dark skin. Stanley Dunham wanted a son so badly that he named his daughter Stanley. By maintaining the fiction that the boy was his daughter's son, he got to raise the son he always wanted.

Placing the birth notices in the newspapers was just the beginning of establishing false parentage. No one imagined then that it would become meaningful later.

People are going to laugh at your theory, but I won’t and you may be closer to the truth than many think.

If your speculation were true, then 0bama would not have gone with Stanley Ann to Indonesia to get adopted by Lolo Soetoro.

Exactly.

Beck and O' Reilly are so far off base when they say something moronic like, “Yeah, sure ... and his parents placed the ads in the newspapers so that one day their son could run for president.”

Of course that's stupid. That's not how it unfolded and being the POTUS certainly wasn't the motive in 1961.

The motive was likely Welfare and other government support because Obama SR got his sorry ass out of the United States and back to Kenya after finishing his schooling at Harvard. There's NO evidence in the 1964 divorce paperwork or elsewhere that Obama SR ever paid a dime of Child Support or Alimony. Furthermore, Obama-mama Ann Dunham did not request Child Support for EITHER of her two kids (or Alimony for herself) in the 1980 divorce from Lolo Soetoro. However, multiple SSNs and aliases likely assisted Stanley Ann Dunham Obama Sutoro Soetoro Rosanna-Rosanna-Danna to collect those US Govt checks later as she resided in Indonesia after dumping her son on the grandparents back in Hawaii from 1971 to 1979.

Another motive was to help give baby-Obama a legal name and sense of legitimacy. As only 0.8 percent of Hawaii's population in 1960 and 1970 was black, the added stigma of being labeled a BASTARD child certainly is not a plus to any kid's (or young mother's) reputation.

The fact that Obama would one day become the (de-facto) POTUS is not a plan hatched in 1961; only 2004, after he won his US Senate seat, first announcing his intentions to run for president, and started “securing” and otherwise covering up any loose PAPERWORK floating around in the system that could somehow later incriminate him.

It would be ALL TOO EASY in 2008 for the "first Black man to become president" to convince the Court of Public Opinion that the abbreviated Hawaii "Certification of Live Birth" and those two cheesy, little newspaper announcements were SOLID PROOF that he was BORN IN HAWAII, OR otherwise corroborate his Vital Statistics.

However, as the Court of Public Opinion in 2010 would later turn away from Obama, his wife and Kenya Parliament said his native country is Kenya, and the lawsuits against his Eligibility grew more refined ... it would make it MUCH more palatable for a Judge in a Court of Law to order subpoenas to get to the TRUTHS behind the LIES.
