BOTOH - There is some reason that Obama hasn't made a genuine birth certificate public.
Agree 100%. There is a reason. There's probably not one on file, and one reason could be because there was something on it detrimental to Obama IF there ever was one. It serves no purpose to engage in further speculation unless something evidential turns up.
Will Honolulu or anywhere in Hawaii ever be able to claim "birthplace of Barack Obama"? I don't know. What Kenya is ostensibly claiming could be in reference to Obama Sr. or a pitch to share in the game/fame.
