#1 Was there an offer to split $20 million attached the the "birth certificate"? AFAIK, the British write their dates as DD/MM/YYYY, not MM/DD/YYY. At least it wasn't in Times New Roman font.

#2 I thought we weren't having anymore of it?

IMHO. There is no chance of the One being born in Kenia, because Kenian Muslim descent was invented by the Davis family to get Barry into Harvard.

#3 In 1961, no British educated person would write a date as MM/DD/YY.

Rather an elementary error to make in a fake.

#4 NCJRS National Criminal Justice Reference Service

Abstract: Results indicated that sufficient agreement was found between the infant and adult footprints to allow the U.S. State Department to accept the individuals identification as a U.S. citizen and approve the application of a U.S. passport. The case came to the authors when a young woman who had sought refuge from the Iraq war in Australia requested a U.S. passport and claimed to have been born in the United States. As proof of U.S. citizenship, the individual only could produce an invalid birth certificate with two infant footprints. Once the birth certificate was authenticated, the authors were asked to compare the footprints of the infant to the adult woman to further corroborate her status as a U.S. citizen. Due to poor recording practices that resulted in smudged and over-inked footprints, the only area available for possible friction ridge comparison was one small area directly below the big toe of the right foot. This area was photographically enlarged and compared to samples of the adults footprints, which were obtained using a powdering and lifting technique. The equipment used was standard black fingerprint powder, adhesive labels, and gel-lifters. The comparison was difficult and problematic due to the poor clarity and limited quantity of friction ridge detail in the infant footprint. Transparent tracing paper was used to trace the enlarged comparable areas of both the infant and the adult footprint. The tracing noted the overall friction ridge shape and flow and the relative location and relationship of the friction ridge characteristics in each record. Since the research literature turned up no other such infant-to-adult footprint comparisons, the authors would be interested in hearing from researchers who have made such comparisons.

#5 Kenya: Acute Watery Diarrhoea Kills Eight in Coast Province

allafrica.com Jun 18, 2009 3 related
Mombasa An outbreak of acute watery diarrhoea (AWD) has killed eight people and infected 21 others in Kenya's Coast Province, according medical sources. Over the past two weeks two deaths were reported in Mombasa, three in Kilifi District and three others in health centres in Malindi District. "We are still receiving more patients from various parts of the province who have been diagnosed with the ailment. However, we are doing everything possible to provide the necessary treatment needed," Helton Maganga, chief administrator at the Coast Provincial General Hospital, the largest referral hospital in the province, told IRIN on 18 June. Maganga said a special ward had been set aside to cater for the AWD patients. The outbreak was... [read full story]

#6 Not that this document is real, but if Ms. Dunham/nee Obama wrote down her birth-date the 'US way', and it was transcribed by a "low-rung transcription person" (who only type what they're given and don't correct 'errors'), I could see the birthdate being entered in the form it was.

#7 Then I see the hand written dates after the signatures at the bottom. Those would NOT be correct.

First handwritten date appears to have some 'corrections' in the '8'.

#8 Obama and crew are probably letting this fester because it gives some of the wackier folks something to do rather than devote their energy to something that may actually cause problems.

#9 The Federal Court judge has scheduled a trial for Jan. 26th, so the "birther" issue will be put to rest finally.
