I hope I am proven wrong.
I hope for the sake of our country that I and many other concerned citizens across the country are looked upon as well-intentioned but ultimately misguided individuals who chased a bad rumor based on lies and distortions.
The reason I hope to be thought wrong (although well-intentioned) is because the price of being right about the constitutional requirements to be president not being met by the current occupant of the Oval Office is too disturbing to be imagined.
If, in fact, Barack Obama does not meet the requirements set out by the U.S. Constitution in Article II, Section I, it would throw this country into a constitutional crisis. Vice President Joe Biden would, obviously, become President Biden. The harrowing part of this taking place is that every appointment made, every piece of legislation signed, and every executive order issued by Barack Obama could, and should, be considered invalid.
Full-moon time? I know, I know; I sound like a raving lunatic. So where do I draw my conclusions that this is even a valid issue to entertain?
Let's review what's been accepted as "fact" by the mainstream press and the vast majority of Americans: Barack Hussein Obama was born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Stanley Ann Dunham, 18, and Barack Obama Sr., 25.
Now let's look at some of the questions challenging these accepted "facts":
Concerned citizens across the United States since well before the November election have questioned Barack Obama's "natural born" qualification for the presidency. From sea to shining sea, at least 18 lawsuits with plaintiffs including a former presidential candidate, a former deputy attorney general, state legislators and retired and active duty members of the military, are attempting to compel him to verify his citizenship.
Candidate Obama's own Web site, fightthesmears.com, posted a "Certification of Live Birth," which, according to the Web site, proves that Obama is in fact a natural born U.S. citizen. What the Web site won't tell you, however, is that a "Certification of Live Birth" is not a birth certificate, and that at the time, the state of Hawaii allowed foreign-born children of U.S. citizens (Stanley Ann Dunham) to have their births registered with this document based on a statement of only one relative. The obvious question must be asked: If Obama has an original "long form" birth certificate issued on the day of his birth by the state of Hawaii, why would he also have a "Certification of Live Birth"? It would not be necessary. Critics have called upon President Obama to just give the state of Hawaii his permission to release his original "long form" birth certificate. The "long form" birth certificate would include all the pertinent information about his birth: name of the hospital, name and signature of the attending physician and a seal of the Hawaiian Health Department. This simple action by President Obama would immediately end all speculation about his citizenship and the reasons for the various lawsuits. Instead, President Obama is spending time and money hiring lawyers to fight these lawsuits. Why?
Why doesn't the mainstream press cover these lawsuits? I mean, in 2004, Dan Rather did a bang up job covering something a lot less important. Rather had "authentic" memos critical of President George W. Bush's Texas Air National Guard service record. Yet there are some legitimate questions about the constitutional eligibility of our president, and yet not one single major press outlet is covering it. Part of the reason is that this issue has supposedly settled by the independent authority on Obama's birth certificate, FactCheck.org. Yet on their Web site, FactCheck.org states:
"The document is a 'certification of birth,' also known as a short-form birth certificate. The long form is drawn up by the hospital and includes additional information such as birth weight and parents' hometowns. The Hawaii Department of Health's birth record request form does not give the option to request a photocopy of your long-form birth certificate. We tried to ask the Hawaii DOH why they only offer the short form, among other questions, but they have not given a response."
So the independent authority on this question has admitted that they have not seen the original long-form birth certificate. And the questions remain.
I sincerely hope that Barack Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, in 1961 and therefore meets the constitutional requirements to be president. If not, our Constitution must be followed and procedures put in place for future elections wherein all candidates on the ballot must prove they meet the requirements set forth by the law of the land, the U.S. Constitution.

Finally, I believe obama knows he is an illegal President. This is why he is moving so recklessly fast to attempt to implement his socialist agenda for the US. He may know that it is just a matter of time before he is thrown out of office...
I do not think that the truth will come out, and if it does, it will be disbelieved by the American sheeple.
it was everywhere during the election....I just googled frank marshall davis and found it.
Thanks. I figured it was some low life scum.

BTW, there are sites showing davis lived in Hawaii at the time and knew the family.....interesting theory.

Thank you atomicweeder.
Well said, AB!
He sure is spending a lot of money for his little joke if you are right.
And if indeed he is spending huge amounts for a joke he is stupid.
GMTA?

What’s that?
Sounds as plausible as anything else about this Zero.
He seems to be made up of smoke and mirrors, lies and slight-of-hand.
AMEN Frantzie, actually I hope NOBAMA was born in a storage basket in Iraq...
In sort, the certification is a computer print out of information contained in the state's birth record database. It's not a "Copy" of any physical document, and it's detailed appearance will depend on when it was printed, not when the underlying certificate was filed. The Certification contains no "real" signatures, merely the "stamp" of the state official responsible for issuing it, as well as the Seal of the state.
A Certificate of Live Birth, is the "long form" or "original" Birth Certificate. It's signed by a parent, and a witness to the birth, usually the attending physician, but it could be a nurse midwife, a "traditional" midwife, or just a relative (supposedly) present at the birth. If the birth was in a hospital, it will also have the signature, or stamp, of the hospital's registrar. The Certificate also contains more information, such as the father's and mother's occupations, and place of residence.
But, when one requests a "birth certificate" from the State of Hawaii, unless one specifies a copy of the "Certificate", one gets the "Certification".
The point of all that is that anyone with a Certificate, would also have a "Certification", if they requested.

We both asked the question about Frank Marshall at about
the same time.
Lame, but I thought it kinda funny. :D
Ever hear of Narcisstic Personality Disorder? A NPD is way out arrogant and self aggrandizing.
He also is not in this thing alone. Wm Ayers and wife are, and have always been long term planners. They and like non patriots would love the fraud perpetrated on a hated state (US) of helping elect a non-citizen adhering to their Communist persuasion.
vaudine
er...that’s Frank Marshall DAVIS.
Maybe it’s time to step away from the computer.
