He said in fact that there was a document in the birth certificate files. Two officials in the Republican governor’s administration that preceded Abercrombie said repeatedly that there is an original birth certificate in Obama’s file and that it VERIFIES that Obama was born in Hawaii.<br /><br />For Obama to have been born in any other country than the USA requires the combination of:<br /><br />(1) Travel by his mother during late pregnancy (highly unlikely because of the high expense and high risk of such a trip in 1961. The expense of going to Kenya—the main allegation–is estimated at around $20,000 in 2010 dollars for two round trip, and the risk was high of stillbirths in 1961, and there was Yellow Fever in Kenya.);<br /><br />(2) Birth outside of Hawaii (also unlikely);<br /><br />(3) Birth abroad despite the absence of any foreign documents or photographs showing either that Obama was born in a foreign country or that his mother was in the country at the time (highly unlikely);<br /><br />(4) The willingness of the parents to lie about his place of birth (unlikely since it would be a crime to file a false government document, and the lie would be unnecessary since for most purposes naturalizing a foreign-born child would be just as good as his being born in the country);<br /><br />(5) Successfully smuggling the child into the USA without a US travel document (extremely unlikely), and;<br /><br />(6) Convincing the officials in Hawaii that he was born in Hawaii (also extremely unlikely).<br /><br />ALL of these six things would be required for there to be a reasonable case that he was born in any other country than the USA. What are the odds of all six of them happening?<br /><br />The willingness to believe that Obama was born outside of the USA despite the overwhelming odds against it and despite all the evidence that he was born in Hawaii is why Ann Coulter, Glenn Beck and Bill O’Reilly all call birthers crazy.<br /><br />Oh, and by the way, Obama’s Kenyan grandmother never said that he was born in Kenya. She said repeatedly in the taped interview that he was born in Hawaii, and she said in another interview that the first that her family in Kenya had heard of Obama’s birth was in a letter from Hawaii.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
