The mere registration of birth with the Department of Health in Hawaii is enough to generate a birth announcement in the newspapers. People will counter that it is ludicrous to think of a conspiracy 47 years in the planning. It never was and never has been about a possible run for the Presidency, remember Ann Dunham was a consummate liar, and although her mother INSISTED to David Mendell that Ann and Sr were married, she would have had her doubts as well. The registration of birth of Jr was to protect the honor of her daughter and lend a legitimacy to the event. The birth announcement address was a new ingredient in the story never before mentioned, not by Jr in his “fairytale” and not by Mendell in his book. “The Honolulu Avertiser” was left to weave a fanciful tale full of supposition and innuendo to try and spin the birth announcement address into the “official story” and we now have the state of Hawaii AND the state of Washington claiming the location of Jr’s very first home!
People who continue to believe Jr was born in Kenya are forgetting the timeline as shown from evidence in another article on FR, where the Kenyan students left Kenya Sept.5/1959 and arrived in NYC Sept.9/1959. It would take another day after that for travel to Hawaii, which would mean a trip of 5 days.
I’m not 100% certain he was born in Kenya (heck, I couldn’t be unless I had been present!); I think it is possible for sure, for a number of reasons. Ditto with Canada. What I don’t think is that he was born in HI, although that is of course a possibility. If he was born in HI there is no reason on earth for him to provide a faked COLB instead of a real birth certiticate.
