Obama's half-sister raises birth-certificate doubts
WND ^ | April 28, 2011 | Bob Unruh

Claims despite 'adoption' by Indonesian stepfather, it is U.S. 'law' that matters

A statement from Barack Obama's half-sister has at least cast a shadow of doubt on the legitimacy of the "Certificate of Live Birth" document that was released by the White House this week in an attempt to stifle questions about his eligibility, by referencing his apparent adoption by her father, Indonesian Lolo Soetoro.

On a Facebook page, Maya Soetoro-Ng wrote to a woman who had met her in Hawaii after Madelyn Dunham, the mother of Stanley Ann Dunham Obama Soetoro and grandmother to both Maya and Barack, passed away in 2008.

Facebook page comments from Maya Soetoro-Ng

Soetoro-Ng was objecting to having a conversation with a critic of her half-brother, and said she had been misquoted as saying her whole family was Muslim.

She wrote, "I did not say my brother was a Muslim. I did say that I was more philosophically Buddhist. I told you that you were upsetting me. You said that you were not trying to upset me but wanted to know the truth about (Raila) Odinga (a Muslim for whom Barack Obama campaigned in the 2007 presidential race in Kenya). I told you I didn't know who that was and had never met him. You mentioned the adoption laws of Indonesia that you saw as related to my brother's legitimacy (you were suggesting that because my father, his stepfather, had adopted him, that my brother was no longer American) and I said that I had no idea about Indonesian adoption law."

I can’t see how someone who was born American, then adopted by a foreigner, would no longer be American.

This is turning into a Gordian knot of conflicting data. Time to flush out the Augean stables.

If Barry Soetoro wanted to renounce his citizenship, he may need to do it three times: US, UK, and Indonesian.

My guess is this is the reason he can’t show the real BC or any of his other records. It would show his legal name is not Obama and he’s been a fraud since he started using the name Obama.

Indonesia at the time Barry Soetoro (aka Barak Obama) lived there allowed dual citizenship for children until age 19.

Barry Soetoro and his boyfriend, Chandoo, traveled to Pakistan in 1981. So what passport did the 20 year old Barry Soetoro use?

To leap forward a few years, Senator Barak Obama was quoted as stating that until he arrived in the U.S. Congress he had never had a passport.

What passport did Barry Soetoro use as an adult if Barak Obama said he had never had one.

Be assured, they retain their American citizenship. It makes no difference that Indonesia, for example, doesn't recognize it. Only that the U.S. recognizes the child's birthright.

"This is turning into a Gordian knot of conflicting data."

Which is precisely why it should have been nipped in the bud, before the smokescreen was allowed to build. In theory, the media and his democrat primary opponents should have pushed this issue until resolved, but of course that was not going to happen (although I will credit Phil Berg with being the only one to give it a try). Barring that, the McCain campaign should have insisted that this be satisfactorily resolved. Knowing the dems and the media would be complicit, it was McCain's duty to run this rabbit down, and he epically failed his nation.

I believe that the dual nationality until age 18 has only been allowed since ~2007. I have lived in Indonesia for 27 years, and have four children here. None were allowed dual citizenship before 2007.

He would still be considered a US Citizen.

Problem here is the Birth certificate is now considered fraudulent. When adopted, an amendment should be placed on your birth certificate. I see no amendment notations! Did he legally change his name back? Again, no amendments!

How in the hell does Joey Farah escape culpability for his role? GOOD GRIEF!!! The man was financing billboards to promote this hoax. He's done the kind of damage to the conservative movement Olbermann can only dream of.

ALL FOR WHAT!?! To get Obama to reveal his hidden secret that he was born in Hawaii?

McCain also had problems. That is why Republican Tom Coburn co-sponsored Sen. McCaskill’s bills (D-MO). Both parties threw the Constitution overboard in their frenzied attempt to become eligible.

Actually, I don’t think his real name at the time of his birth was Barry Soetoro. His mom wasn’t married to his adoptive father at that time. Its possible his given name was Barry Obama, or Barry Dunham,if she didn’t know who his father was.

Its all pure speculation and I’m sick of him and everything about him.

By releasing this birth certificate, it is now obvious that there was a conspiracy to make Obama eligible. The birth certificate ACCEPTED BY THE ADMINISTRATION as true (this time) shows that Obama cannot be a natural-born citizen because Obama Sr. was a British/Kenyan citizen at the time of Obama Jrs. birth. Both parents have to be US citizens at the time of Obama Jrs. birth.

The conspiracy took place in the Senate Judiciary when Claire McCaskill got SR 511 passed saying McCain was eligible and Obama “...Whereas previous presidential candidates were born outside of the USA and were understood to be eligible to be President: and..” was “allowed” to be eligible. All who voted for SR 511 violated the Constitutional requirement to be President.

The question is NOW will anyone step up and admit their treasonous behavior and correct the situation. So far no one has the courage and integrity to do so, least of all the one who knew he was destroying our country—Obama.

I wouldn’t take seriously anything posted on Facebook. For all we know, “Maya Soetoro-Ng” could be an imposter. Facebook makes no effort to require registrants to prove they are the people they claim to be. When Maya Soetoro-Ng publishes an article on any serious news site, I will take note.

I agree, but this time Obama has boxed himself in by publicly acknowledging this birth certificate as the true one. Names, dates, parents, etc. He can’t back out now. Everything on it is fair game. See # 17.

Slippery Daddy O didn’t acknowledge baby Barry in 1962 on his immigration papers.

Btw, what was Ann doing in the Phillipines. Anyone have a guess?

I wonder what Obama thought of his father when he saw those immigration files.
