- Colonies were not called ‘dominions’. Dominion (Canada, Australia etc..) was a term used for semi-independent countries with QE2 as head of state. Kenya was a colony until Dec 1963. During the Dec 1963 to Dec 1964 transition to republic QE2 was head of state represented by a Governor General (Malcolm John MacDonald).

- the Kenyan coat of arms at the top of the page was adopted in Oct 1963 so it just shows that the real-or-fake document was created after that date - doesn’t prove/disprove anything one way or the other
- I am impressed that the typist was able to so evenly vertically center the entries in their boxes - that was always a struggle for me.
- surely its easy to track down Book #448 Page #5733
Airline timetables from the 1960’s are available. There are many collectors on eBay and on sites like timetableimages.com and airtimes.com. Did I just push the bid price up? :)
Because so many of them are (a) terrified eunuchs, (b) blackmailed because of their secret vices or crimes or (c) beholden due to recieving various monies illegally. Or possibly because they just want to stay in DC in some manner for due to lust for power and money and don’t have any principles and therefore don’t want to rock the boat.
I'm more concerned about the names of the Registrar officials, determining whether "Republic" was in use in early 1964. One thing that could answer many of these questions is a scan of a birth certificate or four from (a) Kenyan(s) born after December 1963 and before December 1964. Man, that would answer a lot of questions!
Never gonna happen. However, I have said since January of this year that BHO would never finish out his term and that he would be voluntarily exiting the White House. I still believe that if this story really has legs, Biden will do an Agnew and depart so that a “qualified” replacement for Barry can be appointed. Then the skids will be greased for Dear Teleprompters exit.
Another thing that makes me believe that the birth certificate is real, is that before the 70’s or 80’s, and expecially in undeveloped rat holes like Kenya, they used a high rag content paper for official documents. When this paper aged it would get vertical lines or wrinkles. This BC seems to fit the bill.
Huh?
If its not a Zero then why is there a comma?? Looks like the number 47,044.
I really want to see this, but I can’t get it to download. I don’t know what I am doing wrong. Is anyone else having trouble?
I’ve had this link off and on all day and there is no “fake” in the url. Now I’m afraid to x off it.

You moved the carriage to the middle of the space to be filled and backspaced once for every two letters. As long as you eyeballed to the center of the area, you were golden.
Everyone in the family was not necessarily in the same place. On the other hand, Obama’s grandmother said she attended the birth of Obama and she lives in the villiage far from the hospital as you have said.
It’s a mystery! Hopefully a judge will have the courage and character to get to the bottom of it.
I’m with you. There are several interesting challenges out there, but this item, if it’s a forgery, is a very artful one indeed.
The only thing I notice, is that the paper is very, very white. 48 year old paper is usually more yellow....
While I’m thinking about it ... lest we forget

“The chairs and microphone were all set up in one of the biggest hotels in Nairobi, the capital. Many journalists had crowded in to hear what Mr. Corsi would say about Mr. Obama, the Democratic presidential candidate whose father was Kenyan and who is adored here like a native son.
But it was not to be.
A few minutes before Mr. Corsi was to speak, more than 20 Kenyan immigration agents swooped into the hotel and arrested him. He was whisked off to the immigration office, where officials said he had misled them on his entry papers. By the end of the day, Mr. Corsi’s aides said that he was being booted from the country.”

My husband was a Navy communications officer. Guess it’s a math-oriented comm officer thing!
You are misusing “Trojan horse.” A Trojan horse has something hidden inside it. That’s the point. Nothing harmful is in plain sight — it’s inside the horse.
