President Obama is bypassing Kenya, his homeland, on his first official visit to the region, and then there's the postponed direct air connection. Some say Kenya has only itself to blame.

Maybe you missed it, but Obama's homeland is the United States of America. Barack Obama Senior homeland was Kenya. They will have to stand in line, he's a bit tied up at the moment.

Shhhh ... If Kenya finds out that the American people were snubbed before they were, they might get their noses all out of joint and get really pissed off.

Guess I'm one of those people, too. Just can't quite figure out why he doesn't show the vault copy. Odd.

I never believed he was born in Kenya. I do believe there is something very damning on the birth certificate and that is what he is hiding. Also, I believe that he was adopted by Sotero and never changed this after he reached majority. So he is still an Indonesian citizen. Just my little guesses on this fun riddle.

Why don't YOU think he won't pay the $12 and show the world his vault copy, but will spend thousands on attny's trying to stop anyone from getting a look?

FactCheck.org: Born in the U.S.A.

snopes.com: Barack Obama Birth Certificate

PolitiFact | Obama's birth certificate: Final chapter


Quote:
And recently, author Jerome Corsi, whose book attacks Obama, said in a TV interview that the birth certificate the campaign has is "fake."

We beg to differ. FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of the document as "supporting documents" to this article. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.

Update, Nov. 1: The director of Hawaii’s Department of Health confirmed Oct. 31 that Obama was born in Honolulu.

Quote:
he certificate is consistent with others issued in the same time and place, and the embossed seal and signature don't show through very well on the scanned front image made available on the Internet because they were applied to the back of the original document, not the front. Those who have actually touched and examined the original certificate have verified and documented that it bears all the elements of a valid certificate of live birth.

And there's the rub. It is possible that Obama conspired his way to the precipice of the world's biggest job, involving a vast network of people and government agencies over decades of lies. Anything's possible.
But step back and look at the overwhelming evidence to the contrary and your sense of what's reasonable has to take over.
There is not one shred of evidence to disprove PolitiFact's conclusion that the candidate's name is Barack Hussein Obama, or to support allegations that the birth certificate he released isn't authentic.
And that's true no matter how many people cling to some hint of doubt and use the Internet to fuel their innate sense of distrust.
