Barack Obama was born in
the United States of America
| Obama
was born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1961 |
McCain
was born in the Panama Canal Zone, Panama, in 1936, at the
time owned by the U.S.A. |
Obama's
birth certificate -- which
has been seen, studied, and verified by independent fact checkers --
proves he was born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii, which,
for those who do not know, is one of the states of the United
States of America. Also,
Hawaii
Health Department Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino and the
state's registrar
of vital statistics, Alvin Onaka, say they have checked
health department records and determined there is no doubt Obama
was born in Hawaii. This
should, but probably won't, end frivolous speculation and court
cases that Obama is not "a natural born" citizen. On
December 8, 2008, the Supreme
Court turned down an emergency appeal from a New
Jersey man who claims President-elect
Barack Obama
is ineligible to be president because he was a British
subject at birth. 
Barack
Obama was born in the U.S.A. on August 4, 1961
[BTW:
Did you know John
McCain was born in the Coco Solo Naval Air Station in the Panama
Canal Zone, Panama in 1936. At that time, the Panama Canal
was under U.S. control.] GO

G. Gordon Liddy,
one of the conspiracy theorists respsonsible for spreading
lies about Barack Obama's lack of an American birth
certificate. Obama is an American citizen whose birth
certificate has been verified by FactCheck.org

Conspiracy Theories about
Barack Obama's Nationality
A conversation full of lies, rumors, and half-truths between G.
Gordon Liddy and Jerome Corsi, author of The
Obama Nation and Unfit
for Command, from the September 17 broadcast of Radio
America's The G. Gordon Liddy Show.
The conversation contains no matters of substance, the rumors
have been proven wrong, but Liddy and Corsi continue to fuel right
wing fear of Obama.
LIDDY: Now, the Daily Kos, which is a blog, a leftist blog,
published a certificate of live birth --
CORSI: Right.
LIDDY: -- purportedly from Hawaii.
CORSI: Right.
LIDDY: Giving a date but having the serial number redacted,
blocked out.
CORSI: Exactly.
LIDDY: And, from what we're told, heavily Photoshopped. Can
you go into that? It's not a birth certificate. It's something
that is issued after there has been a birth --
CORSI: That's right.
LIDDY: -- and supposedly attests to the fact that, well, yes,
there was a birth in the past, and it was on such and such a
day, but it's not a birth certificate --
CORSI: Right.
LIDDY: -- such as you and I have.
CORSI: It's a registry of birth. It's -- you know, you come
into the office afterwards, and you register the birth. The
birth certificate is issued by the hospital. It's not something
you go in and request. And the -- this lawsuit that [Philip]
Berg has filed in, I believe, Pennsylvania --
LIDDY: It is Pennsylvania, yes.
CORSI: -- is arguing that the original, the birth
certificate, is in Kenya, and Obama -- Obama's father and mother
went back to Kenya before Obama was born, and evidently the
pregnancy was so advanced that Ann Dunham was not allowed to
return to the United States, and Obama was born in Kenya. That's
the argument. And it would seem to be -- to have some
credibility to it, because the Obama campaign refuses to release
the original birth certificate. And why would that -- a birth
certificate, you know, Mr. Liddy, should be a mundane document.
LIDDY: Yeah. It is. I mean, I've got mine, you've got yours,
and everybody I know -- and, you know, Snopes and people like
that are all saying, "Oh, no, no, no, he was born in
Hawaii." Well, if he was, and they have the thing, why
don't they --
CORSI: Just release it.
LIDDY: -- produce that? Release it.
CORSI: Release it. It would solve the issue.
LIDDY: It would indeed.
