BellaOnline Forums News and Politics Republican Party what a sad day for America

Some facts:

Full Name: Barack Hussein Obama II
DOB: 8/4/61
Place of Birth: Kapi'olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu, Hawaii
Parents: Barack Obama, Sr., a Luo from Nyang�oma Kogelo, Nyanza Province, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, a white American from Wichita, Kansas

About his birth certificate and citizenship: In June, the Obama campaign released a digitally scanned image of his birth certificate to quell speculative charges that he might not be a natural-born citizen. But the image prompted more blog-based skepticism about the document's authenticity. And recently, author Jerome Corsi, whose book attacks Obama, said in a TV interview that the birth certificate the campaign has is "fake."

FactCheck.org staffers have now seen, touched, examined and photographed the original birth certificate. We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship. Claims that the document lacks a raised seal or a signature are false. We have posted high-resolution photographs of the document as "supporting documents" to this article. Our conclusion: Obama was born in the U.S.A. just as he has always said.

On November 1, the director of Hawaii�s Department of Health confirmed Oct. 31 that Obama was born in Honolulu.
