Obama Says 'Here in Asia,' But Where Exactly Is Hawaii?
My Fox Phoenix ^ | 11-15-11 | Fox News Staff

During his press conference in Hawaii, President Obama referenced being "here in Asia." As Americans know, Hawaii is the 50th state, admitted to the Union on Aug. 21, 1959. Mr. Obama also lists Hawaii as his birthplace, which makes his reference even more curious. So, is Hawaii part of Asia?

Don’t be distracted by the birth certificate and Indonesian issues. They are irrelevant to Senator Obama’s ineligibility to be President.

Since Barack Obama’s father was a Citizen of Kenya, and therefore subject to the jurisdiction of the United Kingdom at the time of Senator Obama’s birth, then Senator Obama was a British Citizen “at birth,” just like the Framers of the Constitution, and therefore, even if he were to produce an original birth certificate proving he were born on US soil, he still wouldn’t be eligible to be President.” Leo C. Donofrio

The facts are clear, and the law is clear. All it will take is for a judge to issue a ruling. Do you think AKA OBAMA and his lawyers fret about this? They certainly are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to fight this issue. So far, no court or judge has issued a ruling on the merits of any legal case against AKA OBAMA. Cases have been dismissed on legal technicalities, but no actual case has yet been heard.

Hawaii is physiographically and ethnologically part of the Polynesian subregion of Oceania. Geographically, it’s neither Asia nor North America

Exactly right. Book him, Dano, for not knowing his home state geography!

Geez, what a dumb sh*t he is. The Hawaiian Islands and the Midway Islands form their own land mass, the Hawaiian Archipelago.

I suppose when you’re a “citizen of the world”..it makes no difference where you believe states and countries really are, does it?

Could it be a veiled reference to the fact that he’s already hocked it to the red chinee?

THE CATELOG OF HIDDEN DOCUMENTS FROM AKA OBAMA’S PAST

So far most folks have only talked about the original birth certificate, supposedly locked up in Hawaii as are Obama’s draft and college records.

There is a long list of hidden documents, and a story behind every one of them. This list is one of many available I found on a blog:

• Original, vault copy birth certificate - Not released - Lawyers fees - greater than $1,000,000 - birth certificate - $15.
• Certification of Live Birth - Released - Counterfeit - Case and Affidavits
• Admitted British citizenship at birth - Confirmed via FactCheck.org/FightTheSmears.com
• Birth Announcement - Alleged to be a forgery
• Obama/Dunham marriage license - Not released
• Obama/Dunham divorce - Released (by independent investigators)
• Soetoro/Dunham marriage license - Not released
• Soetoro adoption records - Not released
• Fransiskus Assisi School School application - Released (by independent investigators)
• Punahou School records - Not released
• Soetoro/Dunham divorce - Released (by independent investigators)
• Selective Service Registration - Released - Counterfeit - Document Locator Number update - another FOIA request
• Occidental College records - Not released
• Passport - Not released and records scrubbed clean by Obama’s terrorism and intelligence adviser
• Columbia College records - Not released
• Columbia thesis - “Soviet Nuclear Disarmament” - Not released
• Harvard College records - Not released
• Harvard Law Review articles - None
• Illinois Bar Records - Not released.
• Baptism certificate - None
• Medical records - Not released
• Illinois State Senate records - None
• Illinois State Senate schedule - Lost
• Law practice client list - Not released
• University of Chicago scholarly articles - None
• Kindergarten records - this” lost or hidden” incident deserves more detail:

From Wikipedia:

Hawaii (i/həˈwaɪ.iː/ or /həˈwaɪʔiː/ in English; Hawaiian: Mokuʻāina o Hawaiʻi) is the newest of the 50 U.S. states (August 21, 1959), and is the only U.S. state made up entirely of islands. It is the northernmost island group in Polynesia, occupying most of an archipelago in the central Pacific Ocean, southwest of the continental United States, southeast of Japan, and northeast of Australia.

Maybe he’s made a secret deal with China to deal with the deficit problems.

If Hawaii is owned by China would it be referred to as Asian or just Chinese? Either way it seems like a pretty understandable mistake to call it part of “Asia”. Four more years and I may only need to travel to New York City to say I’ve been to “Asia”.

“A lot of Hawaii is owned by the Japanese and the natives are Polynesian so that could make it a part of Asia!”

There’s a LOT of Phillipino’s in Kauai.
