“While I don’t doubt he was born in Hawaii…just why can’t his long form birth certificate be released?”

The odds are overwhelmingly high that Barack Obama was born in the United States. His parents simply did have the money to pay for round trip tickets to Kenya. Only the wealthy could behave in such a matter in 1961. On top of that, what woman would travel to that part of Africa during the last months of her pregnancy? I suspect, however, that there is something embarrassing on the birth certificate. Was Barack, Sr. his father? Could it have been another man? Whatever, it’s none of our business.
