Why Obama's Birth Certificate Matters, Especially Now

There was a time when someone could perhaps justify sitting on the fence on the matter of Barack Obama's birth certificate. There were those on the left who could chalk doubts about its authenticity up to conspiratorial internet paranoia. As for the right, there was every reason to worry about being the victims of an Alinsky-style setup designed to marginalize opponents. In other words, let the other side double down on an incredible claim, and then, at the most opportune time (October surprise?), provide irrefutable evidence to the contrary and make them look like deluded wackos. So, for a long time, there might have been reason to watch, wait, and let the wheels of investigation render their judgment.

That judgment is in, and the time for waiting is over.

With the results of Maricopa County, AZ sheriff Joe Arpaio's "Cold Case Posse," an incredible claim has become an incredible situation: a team of professional investigators, commissioned by a major law-enforcement agency, has determined that the alleged birth certificate produced by the president of the United States is a probable forgery.

Process that for a moment. The regime of the world's most powerful nation -- a republic that prides itself on adherence to the rule of law -- is likely peddling a forged document. What say you, citizen?

Note that I didn't claim that the president isn't natural-born. Rather, I claim nothing but am only stating a fact: there is now no denying that the birth-certificate matter warrants further investigation, and it is time for other law-enforcement agencies and the media to show due diligence. And I will spell out the possibilities here:

The Arizona investigators are correct. They are mistaken. They are lying.

For the record, I don't believe the last for a moment, but I do want to cover...

It says the Nordyke parents are Caucasian. Here is a link to Susan Nordyke’s birth certificate.

“They use the fact that the Nordyke long form states they’re “white”

It says Caucasian not white.

OK.....maybe I have it reversed. What did the Census Bureau require at the time “whites” or “caucasion”?

“What did the Census Bureau require at the time “whites” or “caucasion”?”

It really does not matter. The birth certificates are what we are talking about here and whites were and still are listed as Caucasian.

“White” has NEVER been a race classification. Caucasian is the classification.

[Smokeyblue]

I take back part of my post from above.

It looks like the Census Bureau has changed classifications to include “white” in at least the 1990s and later.

But my original point stands. The Nordyke twins birth certificates use caucasian not white.

White for Cucasian is far more plausible than Afrikan (bak in the 50’s 60’s) but I agree that is a point that needs to be proven

I would like to see how many birth certificates say White as opposed to Caucasian for that year

I am guessin no others say African

“The question is whether it hurts us more more than it
hurts Obama.”

That is the right question. Unfortunately, the answer
is it will hurt us more than it will hurt Obama due
to media double standards. Recall the term ‘swift boat-
ing’? Hell, it was Kerry and his minions who regurgi-
tated the military record issue to try to unseat a
president who had already been subjected to that
stuff in his first presidential campaign. The MSM was
game for it and when Nam vets set the record straight
regarding Kerry’s own military record all of the
sudden Kerry is portrayed as a victim by the MSM.
And, he continues to be portrayed a victim to this
day.....’swift boating’ indeed! Kerry started it and
whined when the military record issue was turned on
him.

My point is that if it was fair to re-hash GW’s
military record then it is certainly fair to revisit
Obama’s birth record status. However, I realize
that the MSM’s definition of “fair” is not the
same as yours and mine.

As to a whisper campaign I think that the vast major-
ity of those who are susceptible to it are already
anti-BO to a degree. If such a campaign were to sprout
it would come out in polls eventually and the MSM would
do their best to squash it. The best thing IMO would
be to keep it all on the down-low until the bodies
are found. None of this “We THINK the live birth
document is a forgery”. They have to KNOW it.
And, beyond that, they need to prove he was born in
Kenya, Moscow (USSR), Indonesia, Oslo, or wherever be-
cause a forged document just won’t be enough by
itself.

“I assume you wouldn’t give a bank robber a pass on
subsequent bank robberies if he got away with his
first.”

Right. And, I wouldn’t give an unqualified person
the keys to the white house if I could stop it.
Unfortunately, there are too many people both in and
out of the media who fail to see the similarities.

OK, so Nordyke’s LFBC says “caucasion” when the form should have said “white” It appears Hawaiian officials were at least inconsistent on this issue.

“Beginning in 1960, the Census Bureau began to use forms similar to the ones in use today, with a single form for an entire household rather than having multiple households included on the form completed by an enumerator. Census forms were mailed to most people, but census-takers picked them up. The data item is called “Color or race” with categories for “White, Negro, American Indian, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Hawaiian, Part Hawaiian, Aleut, Eskimo, (etc.)” Note that “black” did not appear on the form.”

Please see my other post. Hawaii should have said “white” for the Nordykes not “causasion”
