[B] Even as Barack Obama officially declares his intent to run for re-election as President of the United States, questions of his legitimacy are being raised in ever greater numbers – and rightfully so.

Let us cut to the core on this “Birther” issue shall we? As most within the media continue to either ignore, or offer up repeated defense in favor of Barack Obama’s constitutional qualification to run for President of the United States, some very simple facts persist that point to potentially troubling – perhaps even explosive, truths regarding the early history of Barack Obama.
Putting aside the rather colorful history of Obama’s far left radical atheist mother, who, according to Obama’s own story, struck up relations with an African born political radical/Marxist/atheist who, soon after Obama’s birth, returned to Africa. (Where he had already fathered and abandoned two earlier children when coming to America. It is likely Obama Sr. was still married to a woman in Africa at the time he married Barack’s mother Ann Dunham.) And let us also put aside the second prominent (and almost equally controversial) male figure in Obama’s life, his alcoholic stepfather Lolo Soetoro, a Muslim Indonesian government worker. And then we come to the grandparents – who, much like their free love 60’s daughter, embraced much of the goofy multi-cultural radicalism of the 1960’s and 70’s – a radicalism they firmly implanted in a young, insecure, and very impressionable Barack Obama. The Dunham’s, while living in Washington State, were enthusiastic members of the East Shore Unitarian Church, a far-left institution once led by admitted communist John Stenhouse. The Unitarian Church is noted for its far left ideology, support of socialist causes, environmentalism, and world government. Of course there is also the influence of Frank Marshall Davis, the Black communist who the Dunham’s decided would prove a strong male influence in the life of young Barack – an influence Barack himself would later openly acknowledge. Davis was a social-justice poet-author and member of the American Communist Party. (again – just ignore all of these details folks, just as the mainstream media has…nothing to see here…move along now…) The influence of Davis on Obama is undeniable. In the 1940s and 50s Davis became immersed in the Chicago labor movement, lending his services as a literary community organizer – the very path Barack Obama would later choose when he would relocate to Chicago from Hawaii. And what then of that Chicago arrival? Who was the defining male figure of influence for a still-young but rising star Barack Obama then? Why, none other than the Reverend Jeremiah [I]Goddamn America![/I]Wright, then-leader of Trinity Church in Chicago, an institution Barack Obama was a member of for some 20 years. A church that advocates what is known was Black Liberation Theology – a belief founded by James Cone in the following way:
[I]Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. [B]If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him.[/B] The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community … Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. [B]What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal.[/B] Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.[/I]

Read those lines again reader – and then remind yourself that President Barack Obama was a member of this church [U]for 20 years[/U]. Or, choose to be like the mainstream media and ignore these facts – again, nothing to see here….move along…mind your own business now…asking such questions makes one a racist…
So let us view the position of this same media then that attempts to ridicule and marginalize any and all who raise seemingly legitimate questions regarding Barack Obama’s background and his Constitutional legitimacy to be President of the United States. For his part, Obama continues to spend considerable resources keeping his records, including those of his birth, hidden from public scrutiny. Why? The media persists in refusing to ask even this simple question, while attacking those who do. Most recently, American billionaire and potential presidential candidate Donald Trump has asked that question, and unlike others, refused to allow the media to shame him into shutting up. Trump initially proved his hospital-issued birth certificate, showing his specific place of birth and the attending physician’s signature. Barack Obama has never provided anything remotely similar to such documentation. His own family remains uncertain as to what hospital he was actually born at. (if their version is to even be believed of course) The media, always true to its cause, attacked Trump, stating the birth certificate he provided was not “official”. (Though this same media has never so aggressively challenged Barack Obama’s birth records have they?) Within a day, Trump provided yet further proof of his birth record – this time with what is commonly referred to as a “long form birth certificate” which provides even greater detail than his hospital-issued certificate. Again, President Obama has not come close to providing anything similar to the American public. Upon release of the second birth record, the media simply changed its tactics against Trump, dismissing and ridiculing him as simply a “Birther”. The most utilized tool was the “Obama birth announcement” ploy. Surely a couple of newspaper announcements regarding Barack Obama’s birth are evidence of his legitimacy, right? Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly has pointed to these announcements as undeniable evidence that Obama was born in Hawaii. Not so. What those announcements are proof of is that [I]somebody[/I]reported the birth of Barack Obama in 1961 – perhaps Obama’s grandparents. A recent investigation into Hawaii birth announcements of that era uncovered thousands of birth announcements in the same newspapers of children born in other nations. Such birth announcements indicate a child was born – it does not indicate where that child was born, and the origination of that information often did not come from the actual hospital of birth. Extensive research by the Daily Pen indicates the following regarding those oft-utilized Obama birth announcements:
[I]However, a detailed investigation of the history and procedures used by Hawaii’s municipal health department, and its relationship with the newspapers, [B]shows that not only was it a matter of official policy that Obama’s birth would have been announced in the paper regardless of where he was born[/B], the information used to publish the announcements is not even confirmed through any eye-witness, medical authority or hospital representative in the state[/I].
[I]…The birth announcements were printed from unconfirmed information provided to the Newspapers by the Department of Health who received the information from Obama’s grandparents, not a hospital,” says Crosby in a phone call from Oahu. [/I]
[I][B]…Obama could have been born on Mars and it wouldn’t matter to the DOH or the newspapers.” [/B][/I]

Ah – but what of the “Certification of Live Birth” that Obama has provided? Does that not prove his birth in Hawaii? No. A Certification of Live Birth is NOT a birth certificate, despite the liberal media’s repeated attempts to describe it as just that. It does not give information pertaining to a specific place of birth, or the attending physician. Barack Obama continues to hide his actual long form birth record (if it exists), and even a highly publicized attempt by Hawaii governor (and longtime Obama family acquaintance) Neil Abercrombie failed to successfully locate said certificate. (And what has since happened regarding that search? Abercrombie has grown strangely quiet on the matter…) Also, take a look at this language contained within Hawaii’s Department of Health language regarding how anyone can go about obtaining an amended Certification of Live Birth in Hawaii:
[I]As provided by law (HRS §§338-17.7, 338-20.5), the following persons may apply for an amended certificate of birth:[/I]
[I][B]…A person born in a foreign country who has been legally adopted in the State of Hawaii. [/B][/I]
[I][URL]http://hawaii.gov/health/vital-records/vital-records/newbirthcert.html[/URL][/I]
Oh My.
Was Barack Obama “legally adopted in the State of Hawaii”? That would certainly allow him to create an amended certificate of birth – [B]but it would NOT make him a natural born citizen of the United States.[/B]
Now these questions and related facts are not new to this issue. Many bright and well-intentioned people have been raising them prior to Obama having been elected President of the United States. What has now so importantly changed though is the addition of a voice as powerful as that of Donald Trump being added – and for that all those who have been asking these valid questions regarding Barack Obama’s eligibility to run for President of the United States should be grateful. Donald Trump has now rightfully elevated the debate to the forefront of the public’s mind just as Barack Obama prepares to officially declare his intentions to run for re-election.
Perhaps Barack Obama, son of an African Marxist father and atheist liberal mother, pupil to a devoted American communist poet-community organizer, and longtime member of a race-based Black Liberation Theology church, is indeed a natural born American citizen.
Then again – perhaps he is not. And until either Barack Obama provides the answers, or enough Americans demand those answers, the question is not going away. And the truth will either set the current president free, or reveal a shocking deception as stunning as any in this nation’s storied political history…[/quote]
