The 5 Kapiolani Hospital Obstetricians: If a good investigative reporter could find the names of those five obstetricians, we might be able to find out if Obama was or was not born in that hospital afterall.
As I see it, those 5 doctors could be the key to this Obama birth certificate controversy because I believe that they are NOT bound by privacy laws when they say something like the following: “yes, I delivered Obama” or “No, I did not deliver Obama.”, but I know who did.”
Tracking down those 5 doctors and their families would be a great historical event for some brave and skilled investigative reporter, I believe.
Does anyone have the names of those 5 obstetricians? If we could finally find their names, that would be a great find of enormous historical significance, in my opinion.
According to testimony from an Obama family friend President Obama was born in Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu, who learned this from the doctor in charge of the hospital that delivered Obama.
When Barack Hussein Obama places his hand on the Bible today to take the oath of office as 44th president of the United States, Barbara Nelson of Kenmore will undoubtedly think back to the day he was born. It was Aug. 4, 1961, at Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu.
“I may be the only person left who specifically remembers his birth. His parents are gone, his grandmother is gone, the obstetrician who delivered him is gone,” said Nelson, referring to Dr. Rodney T. West, who died in February at the age of 98. Here’s the story: Nelson was having dinner at the Outrigger Canoe Club on Waikiki Beach with Dr. West, the father of her college friend, Jo-Anne. Making conversation, Nelson turned to Dr. West and said: “‘So, tell me something interesting that happened this week,’” she recalls.
His response: “Well, today, Stanley had a baby. Now that’s something to write home about.”
The new mother was Stanley (later referred to by her middle name of Ann) Dunham, and the baby was Barack Hussein Obama.
“I penned the name on a napkin, and I did write home about it,” said Nelson, knowing that her father, Stanley A. Czurles, director of the Art Education Department at Buffalo State College, would be interested in the “Stanley” connection.
She also remembers Dr. West mentioning that the baby’s father was the first black student at the University of Hawaii and how taken he was by the baby’s name.

Thanks for posting the article on Dr. West. I have seen it many times on the internet in the past.
One down and four Kapiolani obstetricians to go.
Just wondering: When we finally see Obama's Hawaii long form birth certificate, do you think that Dr. West's name will be on it, or do you think that the birth certificate will have another doctor's name on it?
