A fairly impressive internet industry has sprung up claiming that Obama was born in either Kenya or Indonesia. This is nonsense which distracts from the broadly unexplored story of Obama’s upbringing. This kind of nonsense has emerged because the McCain campaign chose not to raise the many questions about Barack Obama’s numerous hard-left alliances. Barack Obama was born in Hawaii, August 4, 1961 at Kapiolani Medical Center in Honolulu.

I didn't post any graphics, so I don't understand the question.
My statement was based on these original announcements having been reprinted on several websites, and in at least one of the papers that originally ran the announcement in 1961. Link
This is old stuff, and most people have given up the photoshop argument by now, but you can always ask the Hawaii papers if the images they posted are photoshopped. I'm sure they'd appreciate the question.
Which is the point....why pay the lawyers all of that cash when $10.50 settles the issue.....
because they are already on the payroll, ie, nothing extra to do what they are doing.
She could have easily had Jr in Canada, remember Canada is also a member of the Commonwealth and B.C. did have socialized medicine at the time, it was in effect by the late 1950’s. It would make more sense for her to have Jr in Canada than in Kenya, especially given the ease with which people traversed the border back then! She was familiar with the area as well.
I didn’t make the statement. Having a problem keeping up?
It’s not up to Walden to prove ANYTHING !
You have it exactly backwards. If you claim there is something irregular (or whatever) about Obama’s citizenship status, it is up to YOU to “prove it”.
As I’ve been saying on this site for a very long time: produce EVIDENCE - not internet postings. Let’s see something concrete and admissible under the normal rules of evidence.
Yes. Prove it !
“The extent to which the birthers are disconnected from reality never ceases to amaze me”.
...the fact that no BC can be produced doesn’t amaze me. With pathological liars like BO in the WH, there are worse things than being a “birther”.
Actually, it could still be too early. Can you imagine a scenario where the BC story really reaches a lot of people and the MSM has to start paying some attention-- spinning in favor of obambi, of course. But then, some prominent opponents take up the cause and really go out on a limb with it?
obambi could ignore it for a while..."no comment" it for a while... vow to never release the real BC as a matter of "principal". Just let it build. Let the demands grow more strident.
Then he looks at his teleprompter and says, "Look, we released the COLB early on. Every official in Hawaii has confirmed its authenticity. There were newspaper announcements of my birth in 1961. These things have been pointed out time after time. We have been open and honest. Yet, this lunatic fringe, whose real mission is to destroy our plans for national health care reform, tax relief for working people, fighting global warming, making this nation strong and energy-independent, and create a national service opportunity for every person over the age of 12-- these people who seek to protect the Old Guard of Special Interests-- will not cease with scurrilous and absurd attacks on my Presidency.
"Accordingly, so that we can now focus on the truly important issues facing us, I present you with the actual certificate of my birth which has existed in the official files of my birth State of Hawaii for the entire 48 years of my life-- and I have asked the authorities in HI to make the original official vault copy of the document available to any news organization who requests it and specifically to Mr. ____________ and Sen. ______________, who have so adamantly disputed my eligibility to serve in this office.
"And I now ask the American people to join with me in bringing the reforms this nation so desperately needs and requires. We must no longer be diverted from our task by the loud voices of the beligerent Right Wing who have shown they will stoop to rank lies and misinformation to divert our course. It is time to truly come together in this time of national crisis. Tomorrow, there is a crucial vote on the critically important issue of ....blah...blah....blah"
Think Katie or Brian would give that any play? What about Keith and Chrissy?
It's all just hypothetical, of course, but I think it is accurate as to the type of person we are up against.
I too am convinced he was born in Hawaii. My guess is that on the original certificate he is labeled as a Muslim.
Yeah. You can't prove it. Nobody can. Nobody has ever seen a single medical record for Obama, and nobody (except the forgers) has ever seen any official paper document bearing Obama's birth record. Hawaii has never verified where he was born.
To state anything to the contrary would be a bald-faced lie.
Do we actually know that he was actually born? That teleprompter requirement makes me think that maybe he was
“invented” like Al Gore?
Typical birther BS. Make something up, then demand evidence disproving it.
And that’s so simple, given that 0bama has had either scrubbed, hidden or otherwise removed all records of any kind from public view.
Great, that's your opinion, that's your history.
You'd have to agree, though, wouldn't you, that not everyone's life followed the same trajectory as yours? O's grandmother, Madelyn, in perhaps the only interview ever granted, back in 2004, said that she had two priorities in life on which she spent her money: her grandchildren, and travel. So to think that her privileged grandson traveled with her isn't a stretch. In fact, a tour of the mainland in '72, with her, his mother and his half-sister, is mentioned in O's book.
HI birth certificates don’t have a space for religion. And why are you convinced he was born there? Were you in the delivery room, or did you seem as a tiny infant a day or few old? Or did you see his preg. mother right before she went into labor? Or talked to anyone who did the above?
It’s all the speculation on the part of the reporter. No validated fact or evidence presented.
That would be “did you see him etc”.
Well, that’s the nice part of a conspiracy theory : If there isn’t a scintilla of evidence to back up the claim...
somebody must have done away with it !!!
Maybe you're amazed!
