Most of the men who have been Presidents of the United States were not born in hospitals. It was only in the 20th century that that became the norm.

I can't blame Obama for not remembering what hospital he was born in. I can't remember anything about my birth either. (I was very young at the time.)

I do hold it against him that he's a nasty hyper-partisan narcissist who wants to destroy the United States as we have known it, but that's another matter. He's also incompetent--I don't know if that will work to our advantage in preventing him from accomplishing his goals, or just cause a lot of us to get killed in terrorist attacks

I don't understand your statement above.

1. Kapiolani Hospital: Obama and his supporters say that he was born at Kapiolani Hospital, so I don't understand why you talk about presidents who were not born in a hospital.

2. My point is this: Obama will be in a lot of trouble if we find out AFTER looking at his long form birth certificate that he was not born at Kapiolani as he claims.

3. You see, if Obama was not born at Kapiolani or any Hawaii hospital, then the very serious questions arise (1) as to where he was born and (2) if was even born in the United States.

4. And if Obama can't seem to remember the name of his birth doctor, there is a simple solution: He can simply look at his long form birth certificate, the one that he claims he found accidentally at a early age in a statement that he made in one of his books.

5. You don't know the name of your birth hospital? I don't expect you to know it this minute, but I would expect you to find out the hospital name in a few minutes by easily finding your birth certificate in your house and looking at both the hospital name and the doctor's name on your birth certificate. I don't think that such a task would be too hard for you.

6. So, what I expect from you is all that I expect of the President of the United States: If he doesn't remember the name of his birth hospital or the name of his birth doctor, then I would expect that he could easily and quickly find the names by looking at his long form birth certificate that he has stored away with his other very important family papers. Is that too much to ask of the President of the United States?

I was trying to be facetious. I know very well where I was born--I have a birth certificate from the hospital with a photo of the hospital on it. When I was 8 or 9 I was in that hospital and my mother pointed to one of the doors and told me that was the room I was born in.

Obama could have been born in Hawaii but not in a hospital. Given that by 1961 most people born in the US were born in hospitals, it's likely he was born in a hospital.

Obama obviously has something to hide or he would have spent $10 or $20 for an official birth certificate and released it, instead of spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep it secret, but we don't know exactly what it is that he is trying to hide. I think it's very likely he was born in Hawaii but that there is other information that would come out that he doesn't want the public to know.

Assuming Barack Hussein Obama Sr. was his biological father, there are legal issues about whether Barack Jr. is really a "natural born citizen" but I can't see the courts at this state saying he is unqualified to be President (whatever the technicalities of the law would say). The law is whatever the judges want it to be.
