The Kenyan document is the only authentic Birth Certificate produced to date and is probably the same one the state of Hawaii has on file. Whatever they have on file contains the information that proves Obama is not constitutionally qualified to even run for president. Obama's well-hidden half-sister Maya has the same COLB and she was born in Indonesia. Then as a boy Obama was adopted in Indonesia as Barry Soetoro(Saetoro). A visit to grandma's in Hawaii became permanant and then came college as a foreign student. We birthers are playing against a stacked deck and the truth may be covered up for years to come. My prayer is that at least my children will see the truth come out about this fraud and will remember me fondly when it does. Another sad aspect of this is that a fine man like Alan Keyes must suffer insult while the one who is dishonest is in the Whitehouse.

My prayer is that your children see you as the crank you are and just smile and nod while Daddy rants on about that uppity negro again.

Alan Keyes is not uppity.

He is, however, a bitter old lunatic.

I just paid an Indonesian family to adopt you in absentia.

Now you're no longer a citizen. Please get the Hell out of my country.

Which is precisely why he's the darling of your Klavern.

ALAN KEYS IS A MORON WHO HAS NEVER WON AN ELECTION THAT HE HAS TRIED TO BE IN THE LAST 25 YEARS. THAT GRAND MAN WHO REJECTS HIS OWN DAUGHTER FOR BEING GAY YEP WHAT A PRIZE!!

Why did B.O. execute his first act as President, literally within 5 minutes of taking office, he signed executive order #13489 that sealed his own records, including college. Please answer this, after all was'nt he to be transparent?

You should actually read the executive order; it did no such thing.

Funny true Alan Keyes story: when he ran against the brilliant and handsome Barack Obama for the US Senate in 2004, one of his stands was that he thought it was disgusting for married couples to have sex for pleasure. With each other. I don't why he didn't attract more support.

At least 20% of voters, including 35% of Republicans, support impeaching Obama for his actions so far. I'm not clear exactly what 'high crimes and misdemeanors'. When Barack Obama Jr. was born on Aug. 4,1961, in Honolulu, Kenya was a British colony, still part of the United Kingdom’s dwindling empire. As a Kenyan native, Barack Obama Sr. was a British subject whose citizenship status was governed by The British Nationality Act of 1948. That same act governed the status of Obama Sr.‘s children.
Since Sen. Obama has neither renounced his Kenyan citizenship nor sworn an oath of allegiance to the United States, any claim to U.S. citizenship automatically expired on Aug. 4,1982.”
Obama fails both tests — jus soli and jus sanguinis — the simple fact is that Obama has chosen to hide who he is, what he is and where he comes from.

The AP reporter stated the following:
Kenyan-born US Senate hopeful, Barrack Obama, appeared set to take over the Illinois Senate seat after his main rival, Jack Ryan, dropped out of the race on Friday night amid a furor over lurid sex club allegations.
This report explains the context of the oft cited debate, between Obama and Keyes in the following Fall, in which Keyes faulted Obama for not being a “natural born citizen”, and in which Obama, by his quick retort, “So what? I am running for Illinois Senator, not the presidency”, self-admitted that he was not eligible for the office. Seeing that an AP reporter is too professional to submit a story which was not based on confirmed sources (ostensibly the Obama campaign in this case), the inference seems inescapable: Obama himself was putting out in 2004, that he was born in Kenya.

A President can be impeached only for bribery, treason, or other high crimes and misdemeanors. President Obama has done none of the above.

*yawns*

Who said he was? Crazy, yes, but uppity? Quite the opposite. If anything, he comes perilously close to being an Uncle Tom.

The statement below is a pack of absolute lies.

It has been reported that Mr&Mrs Obama vistited Kenya over summer of '61 break from college and Stannie was not allowed to board the 4-engine propjob for a trip over the Pacific due to her obvious late-stage of pregnancy w/baby Barack. Hence BHO2 was born in Kenya just like it says on 2 Kenyan BCs and in 3 African newspapers. Granny Obama & the Kenyan Ambassador both verbally agreed with that report. But even if the Obama was born in Hawaii he was born a Brit under British Common Law and at best a dual-citizen under U.S. Code. He could not have been a natural-born citizen due to his mother being under 19YO. Later he became an Indonesian and attended college as a Foreign Student.

This pathetic cut and paste job has been debunked at length elsewhere.

His inauguration speech was about 21 minutes long.

Obama is NOT an Article II Natural Born Citizen and therefore is NOT eligible to be President. This is the biggest political cover-up in U.S. History.

As usual, total bullshit.

Then why are you so worried about it?

Barack – you have to step up, grow a spine, and confront this idiocy like a man. We can make all the circumstantial arguments we want, but you’re the only one that has the irrefutable proof – so the responsibility for the growth of the birther movement is all yours. From here on out, you can do what you wish about it, but if you keep all of those records sealed, we will call it what is – a political ploy to ensure that you have the birthers as an issue in 2012. And if indeed there is no long-form birth certificate due to some accident or clerical error, at least open up the rest of the records (like your college grades) as a show of good faith.

Third time you've posted the same nonsensical crap in a different thread. Are you mentally defective, or what?

The one who should be worried is your wife, the Cheyenne (or is it Cherokee? Or Chippewa? You still haven't shown us that tribal ID, old sport), who has to live with you.

Because his Kenyan Citizenship was still in effect in 1983, Obama may still be a Kenyan Citizen. Neither the President nor any of his surrogates have addressed this issue. Locate where he legally changed his name to Barack H. Obama? It is fraud to run for and serve as President under an “alias” name. What about Soetoro/Obama's Indonesian citizenship? We have the school record, which Soetoro/Obama has admitted too.Obama released two (2) forged images of a Certification of Live Birth, claiming it to be his birth certificate. The Hawaii Health Department has NEVER verified the images placed on the internet. Law 101: No agency or person can look at an online image and state the document came from their agency or location, unless the person making such statement was the one who personally printed the document in question (Soetoro/Obama's Certification of Live Birth in this case) and handed it to Soetoro/Obama and can prove it is in fact the same document. If in fact Soetoro/Obama was a U.S. “natural born” citizen and eligible to serve as our United States President, why in the world would he spend in excess of a million dollars litigating these cases instead of just proving his citizenship status? because Soetoro/Obama can't.

From the website of the Kenyan Department of Immigration website:

“What should a child born in Kenya of mixed parentage( i.e. a Kenyan and a foreigner) do to become Kenyan?

“The child holds dual citizenship up to the age of 21 years and will have to renounce his claim to the other nationality before he turns 23 years old in order for him to remain a Kenyan citizen.”

Since the President did not renounce his American citizenship before his 23rd (or any other) birthday, he is not a Kenyan citizen.

You, on the other hand, Gunny/Red/Redd/Gummy/whatever, still haven't produced any proof that your wife, child, and child's friends are anything other than white. What are you hiding?

And of course not a single word from Gunny/Gummy/Red/Whatever about this clear and unequivocal statement from Kenya. Interesting, how he's willing to insult and speculate until someone challenges him. What a coward.

To become President of the United States for starters both of your parents must have been U.S. citizens and you must have been born on U.S. soil.

Fifth post using the arguments of an adulteress. Why are you listening to someone whose ex-boyfriend said she didn't know what she was talking about? It's not in the Constitution or the legal codes, after all.

It's funny how President Obama keeps on signing laws, conducting foreign policy, isssuing orders to the military, and living in the White House with his lovely wife and adorable children. He keeps on flying on Air Force One and Marine One, the Secret Service keeps guarding him; he's still riding in the presidential limo. The band still plays “Hail to the Chief” whenever he walks into the room, and everyone still calls him Mr. President.
It's like he's just ignoring the birthers, like he doesn't give a single moment of his time to thinking or worrying about being dragged out of the White House in handcuffs. He just keeps on presidenting (while black!) and doesn't lose a second of sleep over the crazy antics of Orly Taitz and her merry band of birthers.
And rational people all over the world are the same. As much as the birthers breathlessly assure each other that they're gaining ground, they don't get that the rest of the world regards them as a nuisance, something approximating a mosquito or a house fly. They're pests, and you don't want one in your bedroom at night, but they're not worth shooting.

Oh, Gunny? Or is it Keyes4Pez today? Does this mean you *don't* have a Korean daughter with a Japanese name?

Repeating your obvious lies and expecting a different result confirms you're insane.

Both.

Liar.

Paul Colford, director of media relations for the Associated Press: “The AP has never reported that President Obama was born in Kenya. In fact, AP news stories about the state of Hawaii have confirmed that he was born there. The Kenyan paper that you cite rewrote a 2004 AP story, adding the phrase ‘Kenyan-born.’ That wording was not in the AP version of the story.”

Repeating your lies ad nauseam on every birfer thread doesn't magically make them true.

PRESIDENT OBAMA REVOKES BUSH PRESIDENTIAL RECORDS EXECUTIVE ORDER (UPDATED JAN. 26)
On January 21, in one of his first official acts, President Barack Obama revoked the Bush administration’s Executive Order 13233 that severely limited access by the public to presidential records. Go here to see a copy of President Obama’s new Executive Order 13489: http://www.whitehouse.gov/the_press_office/Exec…
President Obama firmly committed his administration to a new policy of transparency by symbolically issuing the executive order on his first full day in office. The issuance of the Obama presidential records executive order ends a nearly eight year effort by historians, archivists, political scientists and other stakeholders in federal courts and on Capitol Hill to have the Bush EO revoked on legal grounds or by statute.
The language in the Obama executive order is similar to Executive Order 12667 issued by President Reagan in 1989 which was also in effect during the presidencies of George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton. The Reagan executive order was revoked when President Bush issued EO 13233 in November 2001.
The Obama executive order restores the presumption that the incumbent president, not former presidents, their heirs or designees should be the one asserting claims of executive privilege. The executive order states that only “living” former Presidents can make claims of executive privilege. This removed one of the most egregious sections of the Bush EO that allowed heirs or designees to make claims of executive privilege for an indefinite period after the death of a former President.
In addition, the provisions in the Bush EO allowing former vice presidents to assert executive privilege are gone. In fact, the Obama EO makes it clear that vice presidential records are to be included under the definition of “presidential records.”
Executive Order 13489 also restores the function of the Archivist of the United States’ as an independent arbiter of initial claims of executive privilege. The executive order assumes the Archivist may release records 30 days after notifying the incumbent and former Presidents unless a claim of executive privilege is made.
