It’s foolish to think that Zero was born in Kenya ... that dog don’t hunt, and it gives him ammo to paint his opponents as kooks. But the question remains: what the hell is he hiding? I still believe it has to do with his paternity ... the name ‘Frank Marshall Davis’ keeps coming up.
0bama could have done worse than to have hired Orly Taitz to put a clown's face on the whole issue.
I don’t think he was born in Kenya, I think he was born in Canada. Combined with his father’s lack of citizenship and his mother not being old enough to transfer citizenship, would jeapardize his NBC status.
Canada had “free” medical care and it would also explain her friend interviewing how she came by her house (in Seattle, the Dunham’s former home) when Obama was a week or two old.
That MUSLIM appears as his religion on the birth certificate? Or so I've heard. He's a Muslim at heart whether or not it's on his birth certificate.
Unlikely. It is pretty well conceded that Obama Sr. and Mom went thru a marriage ceremony 6 months before the birth. In all states, AFAIK, a child born to a married couple is legally the offspring of the husband. Actual biological sperm-donor irrelevant. I can think of no reason a BC would list another man as the father of the child of a married woman.
Of course, since Sr. was already married in Kenya to one or more women, the marriage wasn't really valid under Hawaii law. But there is no reason at all to believe Mom or the State knew this at the time.
Anyway, since Davis was a US citizen, his being the bio-dad would do nothing to affect Obama's elibibility to be president.
I have so far seen no logical explanation for what seems to be Obama's determination not to release the original documentation of his birth. Whatever it is, I doubt it affects his constitutional eligibility to be president.
FWIW, I agree with Beck that the whole birther controversy has so far been a political boon to Obama. Quite probably is shouldn't be, but that does appear to be how it's playing in the public perception.
It's foolish to think that someone else other than Barack Obama Sr was Barack Obama's father ... that dog don't hunt.
He has said and written that Barack Obama Senior, the Kenyan national and non-American citizen, was his father, and he should know since he has the original birth certificate in his possession. That is an uncontestable fact that all the speculation in the world cannot negate -- no matter now many corpses they choose to dig up or how many birth certificates they choose to forge to the contrary.
Furthermore his apologists and handlers cite the Factcheck birth certification document as accurate and that document shows that he is indeed the son of Barack Obama Senior -- all of which, according to the evidence put forward by their side, proves beyond a doubt that Obama, son of a foreign Kenyan national, is not a natural born citizen and is thus a usurper in the Oval Office.
I agree- he is hiding something. You need to be certifiably brain dead to not get that.
I also agree that he is setting up the fringe to look foolish by hoping that they cling to a theory which he can debunk. Then that will become the story regardless of whether or not the truth is ever revealed.
Still- what is he hiding? You just don’t spend a million bux for nuthin.
I think you are right, there were mistakes made and I believe he is hiding them from embarrassment more than anything else, but frankly it is irrelevant and too much time is being wasted on this. This agitation should be used to stop his socialist health care, global warming lies and the largest government spending program ever conceived. We cannot pay our debt, we refuse to drill for oil (which could pay it) and members of his cabinet want to sterilize women and teach sick gay sex acts to children. These are items that are true and should be bombarding the air waves, not this waste of time.
By the way, there are more 9/11 Truthers in the Dem party then Birthers in the Rep party. And frankly the former, including Van Jones, are far more offensive.
I think the birth certificate says, “Father Unknown”. Doesn't match up well with the name "Barack Hussein Obama, Jr".
It would be better, from his point of view, to be FMD's love child than to not be a Natural Born Citizen. Which, if BHO Sr is his father as he claims, he is not.
