"Birther" claims debunked in new report
CBS ^ | 26 Apr 2011 | Lucy Madison

Posted on 04/26/2011 6:01:29 PM PDT by smokingfrog

Yet another investigation has determined that, contrary to claims by "birthers," there is no doubt that President Obama was born in the United States.

The latest inquiry into Mr. Obama's birthplace, conducted by CNN in a report that airs tonight on AC360, concludes that "Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961. Period."

Doubt surrounding Mr. Obama's American citizenship has been thoroughly debunked by multiple sources since the issue arose on the 2008 campaign trail. Still, the matter has resurfaced in recent months, thanks in large part to Donald Trump's recent "birther"-friendly media blitz, in which he has repeatedly hammered the issue.

And surveys suggest that a significant numbers of Americans -- particularly among Republicans -- believe the claims. In a recent CBS News/New York Times poll, one in four Americans said they thought Mr. Obama was not born in the United States. Among all Republicans, 45 percent said they believe he was born in another country, as did 45 percent of Tea Party supporters.

Similarly, a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll taken between March 11-13 indicated that while 75 percent of Americans believe Obama was definitely or probably born in the U.S., more than 40 percent of Republicans thought he definitely or probably was not born in the country.

In an attempt to definitively put the matter to rest, CNN interviewed a number of sources who were able to confirm the validity of the president's birth certificate and provide first-person accounts of the events surrounding his Hawaiian birth.

Dr. Chiyome Fukino, former director of the Hawaii Department of Health, said in an interview with CNN that she had "no doubt" of Mr. Obama's Hawaiian origins.

They are really hitting this hard.

Whatever is on that BC must be really really bad.

It would be so simple just to provide it.

“”Birther” claims debunked in new report”

OK CBS/CNN...Where is the birth certificate?
Secondly, you ignore the other part of the question.
Was his daddy a US citizen?

My theory is that under “father” it lists somebody other than who it is supposed to be. Maybe “unknown”. Remember, O’s mother was a hippie/slut type.

I used the link. The Dems sure are desperate.

They’re still using Fukino, known to lie, to verify the birth of Obama.

This thing is going to blow up and ruin all of them.

Funny they always try to pass off things that don’t prove anything. They would not be good enough to take to the DMV to get a drivers license. But they are good enough for the MSM.

The MSM has not proven anything.

Because it's not a question of where he was born but who was his daddy, which would determine his citizenship.

When it comes to liberals, it’s one thing to say something is debunked, and quite another to actually have something debunked. So far, there hasn’t been a genuine debunking of birther claims. I’ll wait to hear what CNN has managed to conjure up, since I don’t watch bogus media.

I’ll believe he was born in the US if they show me a marriage license made out to Stanley Ann Dunham and BHO. It’s all a crock but the “elites” let him into their club and won’t kick him out unless they catch him in bed with Nancy Pelosi!

They are hitting this so hard I am starting to wonder if Ann was even his mother on the original BC.

None of which would stand up to cross examination.
