In this era of tight airport security, the Transportation Safety Administration typically will not allow a passenger to board an airplane if the name printed on the ticket differs from the way it appears on government-issued identification.
Now that the White House has released President Obama's purported long-form birth certificate, a question arises as to why the name on that document does not match the name on his State Department passport.
This matched how his name was listed on the short-form Certification of Live Birth released during the 2008 presidential campaign, as first presented by DailyKos.com June 12, 2008:
Below is a close-up screen-capture of Obama's passport taken from the White House website:
Note that Obama’s name on his passport is listed as "Barack Hussein Obama," without the "II" the Hawaii documents list to indicate Obama was named after his father.
As seen below, U.S. State Department passport regulations require first-time applicants to submit an embossed birth certificate, complete with registrar's stamp, that lists the applicant's full name.

The irony is, the missing numerals II actually look like the metaphorical straws Corsi is grasping at.
Let it go. he wants this talk not Jobs and the economy.
full title: Why is Obama’s name different on passport?
Doesn’t match birth records released with president’s authority
The list, ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
All the Jihadist have a Jihad name!
It makes no sense that he uses the II instead of the Jr.
Perhaps his mother thought the II sounded more prestigious - but it’s wrong.
The II is used when a child is named after someone who is NOT the father. For example, a child is named after a grandfather but not the father. Then the II would be appropriate. If the child has the same name as the father then Jr. is used.
This guy is so ignorant. No wonder he cannot spell Syracuse and can’t pronounce the word corps. He’s ignorant and he’s a vulgarian.
I know plenty of guys named after their dad ( including my cousin) who were named “II” instead of Jr.
Apparently they never owned an etiquette book.

It’s not a Roman numeral for 2. It’s two I’s, standing for Islamic Impostor.

The ID name has to agree with the name on the ticket. o’bama doesn’t fly on a ticket.
LOL LOL
I’ll respond twice and hope we don’t get another double post!
Ping!
I don’t know how much you can make of this. Compared with most of the other problems, this seems relatively minor.
I had a six-year-old friend when I was a boy whose name was proudly given as xxx xxx xxx III.
On the other hand, I had a cousin whose name was xxx xxx Jr. His father had the same name, and so did his father’s father. But he explained that he didn’t use III because his grandfather was dead, which advanced his father to plain xxx xxx and himself to xxx xxx Jr.
My cousin gave his oldest son the same name, and they followed the same custom. It’s a bit confusing, since some of the people I knew are now dead—my cousin and my cousin’s father. But they thought it would look kind of King-of-England snobby to start calling themselves xxx xxx V.
Obama has dropped the II in recent years. No reason why he could not have asked that it be dropped on his passport.
Obviously this is all speculative, but I don’t see the absence of II as being especially sinister—especially considering all of the other problems, including the obvious fact that both of the COLBs posted on-line are forgeries.
It’s a tribute to another of history’s fascist dictators

Really? I never use my middle name. I never like it. No middle initial either. Except on Federal documents. My Passport and my Pilot's License (and my draft card too, I think) all have my full name as it appears on my birth certificate. And my Social Security Card has my middle initial.
My guess is that everyone with a normal (i.e. not diplomatic or military) Passport has one with their full legal name as demonstrated by the documentation given to the passport agency at the time of application.
But the Obama Passport isn't a normal passport. It's a diplomatic Passport, and as such he probably didn't have to provide any documentation to obtain it. My suspicion is that Barack Hussein Obama, Mmmm, Mmmm, Mmmm. has never had his own regular US Passport.

You wouldn’t put “II”. You would put “Jr”.
