More birther nonsense or is this the smoking gun?

My guess: Neither one.

Just shows that the media, while dredging up stupid stories about a Romeny haircut, did not do the slightest bit of investigation into the anointed ones life. I doubt it is the smoking gun, but for heavens sakes it should have been brought up.

the amount that we *don't* know him is staggering!
he's gotta be the least vetted ever in the nation's history.

While the MSM is good at shedding light on stories (albeit skewed, after the fact, or even before the facts for that matter) I'd like to hear from the person (I would imagine) inside the government who signs off on these things. I find it hard to believe that someone born in another country could run for president without someone looking over their application and saying "I'm sorry you're not from this country so you can't run".

From ABC News, who evidently actually did some checking and is reporting on it:

Obama's former literary agency misidentified his birthplace as Kenya while trying to promote the then-Harvard Law grad as an author in 1991.

According to a promotional booklet produced by the agency, Acton & Dystel, to showcase its roster of writers, Obama was "born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia and Hawaii."

Miriam Goderich edited the text of the bio; she is now a partner at the Dystel & Goderich agency, which lists Obama as one of its current clients.

"This was nothing more than a fact checking error by me--an agency assistant at the time," Goderich wrote in an emailed statement to Yahoo News. "There was never any information given to us by Obama in any of his correspondence or other communications suggesting in any way that he was born in Kenya and not Hawaii. I hope you can communicate to your readers that this was a simple mistake and nothing more."

No one will ever convince me that the campaigner-in-chief was born anywhere but Kenya.

I'd like to know why it took them 16 years to discover this 'fact checking error.' Funny how apparently, no one realized the problem until 2007, which coincidentally, was right about when his Presidential bid was in full swing.

It's all being done to marginalize normal human beings such as ourselves into seeming like "Birthers" and Racists so that our views against his policies can be glazed over since we're all clearly just a bunch of radical conservative nutjobs.

The Democratic party really put together quite a show for this go-around.

I think we can safely say by this debacle that our president is a lying liar that lies Nd has been doing so for his whole adult life. And the press is either complicit in his lies or incompetent. That is about all we can deduce here.

He certainly doesn't lead like an American... The raccoon is in the henhouse.
Yeah I said that.

I am saddened by the lack of qualified leaders available to the electorate since Reagan.

Obama has a US passport and at some point had to submit a birth cirtificate to verify his place of birth. Everytime I have had to submit proof of citizenship a passport has been deemed valid. So at somepoint some US bureaucrat had to verify his citizenship. The bio was probably an effort to make Obama seem more exotic, he had to have read and OK'd it at some point. The chance he was born in Keyna is very small, the chance he lied about his past to someone to sound more exotic is pretty high.

I think he used whatever country of origin would give him more benefit at any given time for most of his life before he was president (small P).

I also believe that's why most of his records were sealed.

How about this?

The mans a liar. He's been raised to play the system. If he is Kenyan he lies to become president. If he's American he probably lied about that to get grant money for his education.

No other reason to spend millions hiding the records.
