The online community of “birthers” is going crazy after discovering a Kenyan birth certificate for President Barack Obama. Birthers believed this certificate proved that Obama was born in Kenya and not Hawaii, and therefore is not eligible to be President of the United States.
You can see the claim of authenticity here and some debunking here. All this fuss in spite of right-wing FoxNews declaring that Obama’s Hawaiian birth certificate is legitimate.
It appears that even Congress has accepted Obama’s American birthplace. The U.S. House on Monday unanimously approved a resolution recognizing and celebrating the 50th anniversary of Hawaii becoming the 50th state. A clause was included that reads: “Whereas the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama, was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961.”
Hawaiian state law prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to anyone who does not have a tangible interest. However, Obama’s birth certificate along with birth notices from the two Honolulu newspapers were brought forward even before he took office.
If you would like to join in on the fun, you can print out and create your own fake Kenyan birth certificate.
