Obama was born in Hawaii. His birth certificate is a forgery, but the reason for the forgery is much more interesting than the fantasy that his mother flew to Kenya to give birth.
Obama was adopted by his mother’s second husband, Soetero and became an Indonesian citizen. When he return to the U.S. and became an adult, he could have recoverd his natural born citizenship status as he could not have voluntarily relinquished his citizenship while a minor. But, Obama did not do this, instead he used his foreign citizenship status to gain entrance into prestigious universities as a foreign student. With his grades, he couldn’t get into a top university. That action was prima facia evidence that he was renouncing his U.S. Citizenship.
When Obama decided to go into politics, this was a problem, certainly legally and probably politically. That issue needed to go away, and the Obama team went to work, spending several millions of dollars to make the evidence disappear. The brilliance of their plan is that they planted a bit of disinformation suggesting that Obama was born in Kenya, taking advantage of some braggadocio by Obama when being born in Kenya was thought to help sell books. It was a lie, as are many of Obama’s stories. But, the Birther Movement emerged and took the bait.
Believing anything that the Birther Movement claims is a fool’s errand as is believing anything that Obama has said, “written”, or thought.
With the death of Barrack senior shortly after the 1963 divorce filed by S.A Dunham, she did marry Soetoro, a Muslim Indonesian citizen and Barry moved to Jakarta around the age of 5 and he was adopted. He was registered and educated in Muslim schools in his early age.But a dual citizenship, British and American was filed for him. He would have no problem using his British citizenship to file for foreign tuition. It was already in place with the birth in Mombassa, Kenya, and was witnessed by his paternal grandmother and her sister. Thanks. red
