Is This Obama's Kenyan Birth Video?
VICE ^ | October 26, 2012 | By VICE Staff

Posted on 10/26/2012 6:37:21 AM PDT by Fennie

Yesterday afternoon, an anonymous source known only as "Peter R." reached out to VICE with claims that he had in his possession a video of President Barack Obama's birth. Peter said that the footage was shot at a hospital in Mombasa, Kenya, on August 4, 1961, by his father, Barack Obama Sr.

He sent us the password to a private video on Vimeo, a short clip that appears to depict a while woman who resembles Ann Dunham, Obama's mother, giving birth to a ginormous black baby. Peter also told us that he has the entire roughly 15-minute video in his possession and has been attempting to reach out to Donald Trump and other prominent birther theorists.

Super 8 cameras really didn’t hit the scene until 1968 or so. I bought one of the first ones that came out. Just two weeks ago, I transfered a Super 8 film that I shot in 1971 to DVD.

You’re right about the “feel” of film. I have a HD video camera that can shoot at 24fps and it gives the resulting video that film “look” instead of the stark video look.

They can’t put anything on the internet that isn’t true.

Where did you hear that?

The internet.

If it’s on Super 8 film from the 60’s and prominently features lady parts, Ann Dunham wouldn’t be the worst guess.

Super-8 video film was introduced in 1965.

8mm had existed prior to this, but it had not been popular with the public. The format was cumbersome in it’s original iteration.


Kind of off-topic, but the feature-length film “A Polish Vampire In Burbank” was shot entirely in 8mm.

Ya can’t make this stuff up!

For some odd reason, the words “alien autopsy” come, unbidden, to mind.

We had just bought a “standard” 8mm film camera in 1961, and I don’t think “super” 8 came out until a few years later.

A quick check of Wikipedia shows that “super 8” mm film was introduced by Kodak in 1965. The film came in cassette form (eliminating a truly major error-prone hassle changing film in the standard 8mm camera, twice per roll!). Also, the cameras and projectors featured larger film gates and image masks.

The left is going to attack anyway.

But anyone who looks at the thread is going to see the skepticism here. I haven't seen anyone who "wants to believe".

Here...let me explain it more fully so you will understand. Just as Rush and Sean and Mark, et. al., sometimes get information from this site as well as other ones on the right, the mainstream media sometimes get their information from left wing sites such as DU.

This 'video' is bogus, crazy, fever swamp stuff, and if you and some others on this thread want this crap to represent this site, then so be it; evidently the mods do too. But, I disagree.

This is obviously fake. There’s not a teleprompter to be seen anywhere— not even an old black-and-white one.

Limbaugh and Levin did not get to where they are now without knowing the difference between reality and a bogus video which was probably produced by RINOs or the democrats trying to make the Constitutional Conservatives look bad.

If FreeRepublic were to ban everything that quotes the left Newsbusters would become a casualty among many other websites.

I believe in the intelligence of individuality.

Got it.

You still don't get it, and I give up trying to explain it to you. So be it. I'm amazed that you can understand what Sowell writes.

I understand EXACTLY where you're coming from but I don't see this obvious fake and near parody video to be the "danger" you claim it to be. There is a video out there that does indeed pertain to what you're talking about. It was posted on YouTube and in the comments I posted something similar to what you posted even though the poster/creator of the video admitted in the comments that the video was a fake and he was more or less showing off his talent to sync the voice with the video. I must admit he did a VERY good job and it was convincing enough to fool me until reading his comment where he admits it's not real.

The video was of Obama doing some sort of townhall meeting with a large group of people (I believe it was supposedly to have taken place outside the USA - perhaps in the UK).

Here it is! I believe this is the fake version. It looks so real that even now I have my doubts. LOL!

Bottom line: I do understand what you're saying but the above video does not deserve the attention you're giving it. It's laughable and anybody who would believe that would also believe the alien autopsy video. LOL!
