Here is something I received in an email today. I do not know where it originated. Some of you pros can decide if what he says is true or not. Meanwhile, I wonder if Colin Powell has any inkling how low his stock has sunk since he became an Obummer lapdog?
Now here is the birther material I received today: “As you all know, Donald Trump made a big deal about Obama’s birth
certificate. As of yesterday, the White House released the birth
certificate.
I will tell you right now that I had never given this “birther” issue any
credit. I watched the hype and the crazies come out. I completely dismissed
the entire ordeal altogether. In fact, it was not until the White House
released the birth certificate that it had gained my attention.
I am the studious sort of guy, and I have plenty of time on my hands. So, I
took a close look at this document. While I would have thought that this
issue would have been closed for good (and, got the crazies to crawl back
into their holes), I found two extremely strange inconsistencies that merit
some attention.
First of all, the birth certificate that the White House released lists
Obama’s birth as August 4, 1961. It also lists Barack Hussein Obama as his
father. No big deal, right? At the time of Obama’s birth, it also shows that
his father is aged 25 years old, and that Obama’s father was born in “ Kenya
, East Africa “. This wouldn’t seem like anything of concern, except the
fact that Kenya did not even exist until 1963, two whole years after Obama’s
birth, and 27 years after his father’s birth. How could have Obama’s father
have been born in a country that did not yet exist? Up and until Kenya was
formed in 1963, it was known as the “British East Africa Protectorate”. But,
this is not the only thing that I found that just does not jive.
The other item that I looked into was the hospital that Obama was born in.
On the birth certificate released by the White House, the listed place of
birth is “Kapi’olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital”. This cannot be,
because the hospital(s) in question in 1961 were called “KauiKeolani
Children’s Hospital” and “Kapi’olani Maternity Home”, respectively. The name
did not change to Kapi’olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital until 1978,
when these two hospitals merged. How can this particular name of the
hospital be on a birth certificate dated 1961 if this name had not yet been
applied to it until 1978?
Go ahead, look it up. I am not talking crazy talk, these are the facts. Like
I said, I thought that this was a non-issue until the actual certificate was
released. Now that it has been released, of course I had to look into it. I
have found these issues, now I know that something is up. If you doubt me,
just look at the following resources:
Sure as hell, the hospital part is true, as you can read about the 1978
merger here.
Post-colonial history (from Wikipedia)The first direct elections for
Africans to the Legislative Council took place in 1957. Despite British
hopes of handing power to “moderate” African rivals, it was the Kenya
African National Union (KANU) of Jomo Kenyatta that formed a government
shortly before Kenya became independent on 12 December 1963, on the same day
forming the first Constitution of Kenya.
Hmm, so if you had a map of the world in 1961 - Kenya wouldn’t be on it? hmmm - interesting
(anyone have an old Nat’l Geographic collection? check 1961)
I still think he wasn’t born on that date - his school pictures show him much bigger=heftier and towering over his classmates - It’d be one thing if he was 7 feet tall now - but he isn’t...and he’s not hefty.
British East Africa consisted of 3 separate colonies: Kenya, Uganda, and Tanganyika. So there is nothing wrong with considering Kenya as an entity unto itself, as it was hugely in the news because of the Mau Mau uprisings in the 1950’s, depicted in the bestselling novel Something of Value, written by Robert Ruark.
