Obama’s Birth Certificate Returns…But Why Now?
The Post & Email ^ | 5 Jan 2024 | Sharon Rondeau

(Jan. 5, 2024) — On December 31, 2023, seemingly out of nowhere, finance author Zach De Gregorio, founder of the subscription website WolvesandFinance.com, released a 26-minute video and blog post raising the question, “Whatever happened to Obama’s birth certificate?”

In the video, which is available without a subscription and titled, “PROOF Obama’s Birth Certificate is Fake,” De Gregorio summarized the June 2008 internet release of a “short-form” birth certificate image bearing the name “Barack Hussein Obama II”; the eventual release of a purported “long-form” birth certificate by the White House in April 2011; and some of the key points from the five-year criminal investigation authorized by then-Maricopa County, AZ Sheriff Joseph Arpaio into the origins of the long-form image.

The investigation, delegated to the MCSO’s “Cold Case Posse” led by former private investigator and former police detective Michael Zullo, began in August 2011 and concluded on December 15, 2016 with a third and final press conference detailing investigators’ conclusion, and that of two forensic analysts, that the long-form image is a “computer-generated forgery.”

To The Post & Email’s knowledge, De Gregorio is a newcomer to the subject of Obama’s birth certificate. A self-identified accountant, a brief perusal of his YouTube channel shows he has produced 419 videos over a period of months on political issues garnering between 4,200 and 246,000 views each. As of publication time late Friday afternoon, the “birth certificate” video has 45,000 views.

At 3:32 in the subject video, in speaking about the “short-form” birth certificate image first published by The Daily KOS on June 12, 2008, De Gregorio remarked, ...

In 1991, Obama’s literary agency, Acton & Dystel, printed a promotional booklet which misidentified Obama’s birthplace, and stated that Obama was “born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii”.

This error was later included in a biography that remained posted to their website until April 2007. The booklet’s editor said that this incorrect information, which was not widely discovered until 2012......21 years later..... had been her mistake and not based on anything provided to her agency by Obama.

Conspiracy theories about Obama’s religion appeared at least as early as his 2004 U.S. Senate campaign in a press release by Illinois political candidate Andy Martin, and, according to a Los Angeles Times editorial, as Internet rumors.

From the start of March 2008, rumors that Obama was born in Kenya before being flown to Hawaii were spread on conservative websites, with the suggestion that this would disqualify Obama from the presidency.

In April of that year, some supporters of Hillary Clinton circulated anonymous chain emails repeating the same rumor;[40] among them was an Iowa campaign volunteer, who was fired when the story emerged.These and numerous other chain e-mails during the subsequent presidential election circulated false rumors about Obama’s origin, religion, and birth certificate.

On June 9, 2008, Jim Geraghty of the conservative website National Review Online suggested that Obama release his birth certificate.

Geraghty wrote that releasing his birth certificate could debunk several false rumors circulating on the Internet, namely: that his middle name was originally Muhammad rather than Hussein; that his mother had originally named him “Barry” rather than “Barack”; and that Barack Obama Sr. was not his biological father, as well as the rumor that Barack Obama was not a natural-born citizen.

In August 2008, Philip J. Berg, a former member of the Democratic State Committee of Pennsylvania, brought an unsuccessful lawsuit against Obama, which alleged “that Obama was born in Mombasa, Kenya.”

In October 2008, an NPR article referred to “Kenyan-born” Senator Barack Obama. Also that month, anonymous e-mails circulated claiming that the Associated Press (AP) had reported Obama was “Kenyan-born”.

The claims were based on an AP story that had appeared five years earlier in a Kenyan publication, The Standard.

The rumor-checking website Snopes.com found that the headline and lead-in sentence describing Obama as born in Kenya and misspelling his first name had been added by the Kenyan newspaper, and did not appear in the story issued by the AP or in any other contemporary newspaper that picked up the AP story.

In 2012, the far-right website Breitbart published a copy of the promotional booklet printed by Acton & Dystel in 1991.

She didn’t certify anything.

It was simply a blind approval.

I do remember the Iam A. Forgery birth certificate posted on DailyKos that was the template used.

Huh...no mention of the original source of corroboration for the “Rumor”:

Obama’s applications to and scholarships for college.

Records document that Barack Obama received college financial aid in the U.S. as a “foreign student from Indonesia.”

Swarthmore was his first college choice, but he wasn’t accepted.

Occidental college was his second choice which is where he attended before transferring to Columbia University from which he graduated Magna Cum Laude

After graduation (some say he worked for several years) then applied to Harvard Law school, where he was president of the Harvard Law Review

Why now, because they are going to revisit natural born citizen to disqualify Haley, Harris, and Ramaswamy. Long overdue.

We have a winner, thread's done, go home...

Donald Trump was a big birther for a period prior to 2016.

After he became President it was crickets on the birther issue.

What changed?

I agree it is about time; however, what do you want to bet it will only apply to republicans.

Why now?

Last year nobody was talking about “finance author Zach De Gregorio.” Now a few people are. That’s motivation enough.

Ask Trump, he promised to find it.

It doesn't exist. Even the governor of Hawaii promised to look into it and couldn't find it.

Note that these were references to an original filed birth certificate, not the amended one that officials later admitted to (going by memory here).

(October 26, 2006) Obama's birth certificate sealed by Hawaii governor [Linglel]

(January 17, 2011) Hawaii Govenor [Abercrombie] Can Not Find Obama's Birth certificate

(January 18, 2011) Hawaii governor [Abercrombie] hasn't found Obama's birth certificate yet

Don’t know about that angle of the story-—

BUT—I DO KNOW that the NAME OF THE HOSPITAL ON HIS “”BIRTH CERTIFICATE” is bogus.

2 hospitals in Honolulu merged about 6 years AFTER BARRY was born.

The NAME on the cert is the NEW NAME OF THE MERGED HOSPITALS.

There are other problems with the info on that paper, but that one is GLARING.

The publisher was correct-—The original info came directly FROM OBAMA.
