But that is not proof of anything other than the fact that someone gave the newspaper the information and they printed it. Anyone, usually a family member, can pass the birth announcement to a newspaper and they will print it.

Oh, that settles it. So let's just forget about a birth certificate.
It's absolutely impossible to fake a newspaper and photocopy it 30 times. This photocopy is fake and looks fake. It was deliberately made to look old and worn and like it was copied 100 time.

Why would anyone have copied it 100 times since the early 1960's? Who would have happened to have it handy?

Nobody. It's fake. Dan Rather did it again.

They learned the lesson of monospaced fonts from the last fake, and this time spared no expense and used professional equipment and maybe even copied the fonts from a real newspaper of the period before photocopying.

FAKE FAKE FAKE!

Produce the birth certificate - long form. Place of birth, doctor who delivered him.

Then, why would there be records on him in Kenya if he wasn't born there? Why would they seal those records? Italy has no record of my father who was born to my Italian grandfather in America. Kenya is MUCH more backwards than Italy ever was, and so the mere fact that they have records on Obambi's birth is worrying.

Not an expert, but to me it looks like a copy of microfilm/microfiche which get scratched in the reader and which is the sole source for most 47-year-old newspapers.

I have no idea what you are getting at in regard to my post #29.

Did you misread what I said?

I just pointed out that newspapers will print birth information given to them. They don't verify it. It doesn't have to be true or accurate.
