yes, and i've stated it earlier. both goderich's statement and the fact that it was also used as the bio blurb to "dreams from my father".

Subjective much? I guess you never see the threads started about court cases, articles that say he was born in Kenya and birthers who just want to say that he isn't a natural born citizen. I guess you also don't read the posts in any and every thread that has anything to do with Obama where some nut job feels the need to say he was born in Kenya, his mother is a pornstar who doesn't know who his real father is or that he is not a natural born citizen. I agree, anti- Obama folks should start giving valid reasons as to why they do not support him rather than fantasizing about conspiracy theories.

not sure how you consider something a "source point" for the birther movement that wasn't discovered/mentioned till just last month.

LMAO!

Do you have evidence that his birth certificate is an error? A birth certificate can be used to obtain a passport, a driver's license and to prove one's place of birth, an article cannot. What about the article with his birth announcement, it says he was born in Hawaii. Can you prove that was an error? There is far more evidence to prove that he was born in Hawaii than there is to prove that he isn't, but I think you know that.

I'm just saying, we have enough reasons to vote him out of office we don't need the birther issue, even if it is true. As far as this issue goes, I tend to think there is a lot of smoke for there not to be any fire.

not really...the link she provided (much like mine) was an OPINION in 2011

the fatc is the 1991 agent 'mistake' is where it started

and in 07 some people based on the agent 'mistake' asked some questions

and in 08 HILLARY pushed it hard as she was in a very tight primary fight that went till june

it started with the democrats


Democratic blog, The Blue State, who wrote on July 23, 2007, “Obama isn't technically a northerner either since he was born in Kenya

There was even a Kenyan newspaper from 2004 that casually referenced “Kenyan-born Obama.”*


and historians STATEMENT of """"Birthism was invented on March 1, 2008 on the right-wing conservative forum FreeRepublic.""""" is a direct contrdiction to the link which states """"conservative sites like FreeRepublic, conspiracy sites like Prison Planet, white supremacist sites like Stormfront didn’t engage the rumor until June 2008""""

but what was historian refering to....a blog by an anonymous poster, who could be anyone from anyparty

and what was historians link to...a anti-birther BLOG by Laren Collins

LOL, the agent, Miriam Goderich remembered in 2012 that she made an error in 1991. She didn't remember making the error in 92, 95, 00, 05.....just recently she said, "oh yeah, I goofed on BO's bio 20 years ago." She remembers making the mistake. She remembers it as a mistake (according to her). So she makes a mistake in 91, then forgets to correct the mistake for 16 years.

LMAO


They updated the bio in 2007:

Quote:
BARACK OBAMA is the junior Democratic senator from Illinois and was the dynamic keynote speaker at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. He was also the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review. He was born in Kenya to an American anthropologist and a Kenyan finance minister and was raised in Indonesia, Hawaii, and Chicago. His first book, DREAMS FROM MY FATHER: A STORY OF RACE AND INHERITANCE, has been a long time New York Times bestseller.
After two published books, after a successful Senate run, they still didn't realize their oops? Seriously?
