How do we know Stephen Harper was born in Toronto? Sure, there may be hospital records, and he probably has a birth certificate. But have any of us seen such proof? For all we know, he could have been born in the United States. He certainly seems well-steeped in American-style politics. The question may seem silly, since it doesn't matter much where he was born. But in the U.S., where the constitution explicitly states that only a "natural-born citizen" can become president, the question has provided fodder for spurious attacks on president-elect Barack Obama. Obama was born in Hawaii, where...

President-elect Obama will likely make several tough decisions on immigration policy during his first few months in office, even if he postpones wide-ranging reform until later in his first term. Obama will be under pressure from interest groups to review or drop several administrative policies aimed at curbing illegal immigration, which President Bush enacted after he failed in 2007 to persuade lawmakers to pass broad legislation that would have put millions of immigrants on a path to citizenship. “I think immigration is shaping up to be an issue that he is going to face a consensus of pressure,” said Ali...

When many islanders look at Barack Obama, they see not only the next president, but a skilled bodysurfer, a man who flashes the "shaka" or hang loose sign, and someone who wears the same rubber slippers they do. Hawaii is overflowing with pride that a son of the islands who shares their culture and traditions is going to the White House. Now that Obama is back in the islands for the winter holidays, the state is giddy. On Tuesday, supporters squealed, screamed and shouted "thank you!" when he visited the Honolulu Zoo with his daughters, Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7....

OBAMA HAS NOT MET HIS BURDEN OF PROVING HE WAS BORN IN HAWAII By now, many of us know about the Certification of Live Birth (COLB) that Obama posted on the internet in June 2008 as proof that he was born in Hawaii. This document was touted by fightthesmears.com and factcheck.org as sufficient proof that he was born in Hawaii. Later on we learned about Hawaiian law in effect at the time of Obama's birth that allowed parents or guardians of babies born in a foreign country to register the foreign births in Hawaii and to receive a COLB as...

Permission to copy and post this article's text is granted. A private investigator in Hawaii has uncovered the divorce decree for Barack Obama's father and mother, which indicates they had "one child under the age of eighteen, born in Kenya." That is the report of Ed Hale of PlainsRadio.com, an Internet radio site which has focused upon the natural born Citizen challenges to Obama's presidential eligibility. Hale announced this during his evening Internet broadcast on PlainsRadio.com, Tuesday, 12/30 and confirmed it with I.O. in an online interview, later that night. He reported that certified copies of this documentation have been...

This document alone raises a big question. It is his registration in the State of Illinois for his license to practice Law. The document has a space to list any other names that have been used. Even though he has used other names, this shows, “None”. The other names he has used, that we currently know are: Barack Hussein Obama, Barry Soetoro, Barry Obama, Barack Dunham and Barry Dunham. The Mysterious Shadow: Code Name Obama During the Presidential debates with Senator John McCain, Obama never once addressed his opponent as “Senator McCain” or “Mr. McCain”. Most people, who have any...

“From Watergate we learned what generations before us have known; our Constitution works. And during Watergate years it was interpreted again so as to reaffirm that no one - absolutely no one - is above the law.” Leon Jaworski, Watergate Special Prosecutor. As our republic embarks on a new presidential term of office, it faces a new kind of constitutional crisis. This new crisis to the republic plus an atmosphere of distrust arises from corrupted, power hungry politicians and their accomplices, the big media. Special interest abuses and partisan bias in the administration of justice are shameful acts of the...

I wanted to post this before midnight. I think today is a record for posts about Obama's Birth Certificate. Each day it has tended to grow. Weekends and holidays are a little lighter, but still the story gets up on it's wabbling newborn legs.Email the FR bookmark link to everyone.
