The lone Republican in the Hawaii State Senate was interviewed on the radio this morning, explaining that while he believes Barack Obama was born in the Aloha State, he questions what might be on the original, long-form birth certificate that would prompt the president to go to such lengths to conceal it.
“I’m not a ‘birther,’” Hawaii State Sen. Sam Slom told Jeff Katz of WXKS Radio in Boston, “and I followed this from the very beginning. At first I followed it with amusement, and then I got really concerned about it, because the question was if it was not just the birth certificate, but other records as well – school records, academic records, work records – why would anyone spend millions of dollars in legal fees, particularly someone in public office, particularly someone in the highest public office, to not make that information public?”
As WND has reported, besides Obama’s actual birth documentation, the president has refused to release his Punahou school records, Occidental College records, Columbia University records, Columbia thesis, Harvard Law School records, Harvard Law Review articles, scholarly articles from the University of Chicago, passport, medical records, files from his years as an Illinois state senator, Illinois State Bar Association records, baptism records and his adoption records.
“There are different theories,” Slom continued. “One is that there is no birth certificate at all; I don’t think that’s true, I think there is a birth certificate. The second is there may be some very interesting information that the president does not want released, for example, who his father really is or what’s listed on the birth certificate.
“In any event, here is the president of the United States,” Slom said, “you’ve got to have [a birth certificate to present], why don’t we require that of the president?”

Here Ellen a fresh tread to trash with your stuff. I told you months and this was no going away and is only going to get bigger as it get closer to 2012. Simple show the ORIGINAL or keep the topic active. See I didn't need to use a bunch of logical explanation to increase the amount of data to support a conclusion to a simple answer to the issue. SHOW IT AND END IT> Then we can discuss the real issues like his serious spending habits.

QQ Birth Certificate
I know she'll eventually be here.
Barry! Barry!
Gee, I feel kinda sorry for you guys, if deparately waiting for one of the few commenters who regularly cites evidence is something you depend on so heavily to get through your day.
As for goofy conspiracy stuff "not going away," who would want it to, other than Republicans who'd rather focus on "real issues" and who think there's a chance that the GOP might actually win the White House in 2012?
Birthers–none of whom would vote for him anyway–help Obama more than they hurt him.
Youre an idiot…..plain and simple ! THE AMERICAN PEOPLE deserve to know…..and OUR CONSTITUTION DEMANDS IT. Right is right……nomatter how you Obama supporters babble about it.
WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE HOW MUCH FRAUD GOES ON IN THIS NEXT ELECTION AS THE ONE WHICH GOT -ILLEGAL =UNKNOWN-ALIEN WAS NOTHING BUT FRAUD. HOW DO DEAD PEOPLE VOTE????HOW MANY STUFFED BALLOTS WITH FICTITIOUS NAMES WILL BE COUNTED?? HOW MANY ILLEGAL ALIENS WILL BE VOTING???? LOCK THOSE VOTING BOXES AND COUNT THE BALLOTS-CHECK FOR ANY ILLEGAL WRONG DOINGS AS O BUMMER-CRAP ALREADY HAS HIS CHEATING PLAN COOKED UP. YOU CAN BET ALL HIS UNION THUGS ARE SETTING IT UP NOW-FOR FRAUD -IN THE WORKS. THEY ARE GOOD FOR THAT PLUS SUPPORTING TERRORIST IN THIS COUNTRY AND MIDDLE EAST. IF FRAUD HAPPENS-AGAIN-AMERICA YOU DIDN'T WAKE UP SOON ENOUGH!!!!!
James nothing more than your own biased opinions as usual. This issue is not going away ! Though i know how badly you & your bott Ellen wish that it would. Deny as you may but the G.O.P. will win the white house in 2012.
Why can't I see his thesis from Columbia College? Don't you remember the back and forth between Bush and Gore on who had the better grades in high school and college? Our President has done this to himself to make the public so skeptical. It's not just the birth cert anymore. It's everything else. What can be that bad about seeing his Harvard reviews that he wrote? Why spend one penney to lock that stuff up. Since he is our president, he should let us see it. My God, we have been able to see every presidents records so far. He is giving everyone ammunition to question him. He should nip this in the bud fast! And secondly, why can't we question this when it looks so suspicious, which he has caused by the way?
If you read my post that is my exact point, so show the "Original" and we can move on to this mans spending habit and starting war in Libya without The American support and only getting UN and Arab League approval. Noe them are some not so Extreme crazy conspiracies. I wish we could get all these as you call us "Crazies, Extreme, Tea Braggers Birthers and take that energy and focus it on some real serious issues. But alas you tag us all crazy as the left love to do and assume we are all focused on this one issue. Barry has a cloud of confusion around his whole life up to the point he became President. So call me what you may but Barry is hiding something and the whole Birth Certificate is a smoke screen. As for Ellen's Facts, she has facts that yes are and were laws at the time but SOME of them are just speculation not supported to the actual facts in relations to Barry life story, so I also need to call her on that when she takes liberty to attach a known fact at the time and assumes it is fact in Barry's life story.
Now,Now..Ya'll be know'n it ain't right to be bait'n Ellen like dat….Mmmmmm,Mmmm.Mmm
What really bothers me is that if I applied for any responsible position with the U.S. Government, I would be seriously vetted. My past would be an open book. My parents, my place of birth,my friends, my education etc. Yet, this man holding the highest position in 'the world' was never investigated. Why?
Let's place the blame where it really belongs.
I hold accountable those members of the DNC who so 'carefully' vetted him before nominating him for president.
They were so determined and hungry to regain power that they would accept anyone who might help them regain the White House. Never mind his background and goals and associates.
Let's put the blame where it belongs… the Democratic National Committee.
According to Mr Tim Adams, it was the D.N.C. that vetted him. They are culpable for starting and perpetuating this fraud. They were so excited and anxious to get back their power they were willing to vet a non-citizen as eligible. It's about time we found out the full truth.
Furthermore, I'm not convinced that Mr Obama is as "smart "as many people think he is. I would like to see his school records. I think we would all be surprised. Why else is he hiding them?
This fraud should anger all Americans regardless of party affiliation.

Since obummer will not produce his original true birth certificate, he definitely has something to hide.
And what if Obama's Chicago thugs have forged a birth certificate to make it LOOK legit? So, forget that angle. What about his Fullbright Scholarship as a "Foreign Student"?
How about his Pakastani passport? Does he have two passports, one US and one Pakastani?
How about his schooling in Indonesia. Their law requires students be Indonesian and cannot have dual-citizenship.
And finally, who shut the mouth of his paternal Grandma in Kenya? Wasn't she the one who said she was present when he was born? And what about the monument the Mombasa people erected on the site of Obama's birth? Huh, huh?
The Birth Certificate has run the gammut. Now's the time to keep exposing the TRUTH.
I have said it before and I will continue to say it; in all likelihood Obama was born in Hawaii. HOWEVER— let us not forget that when his supposed mother married (another question) Lolo Soetoro, an Indonesian citizen, and moved to Indonesia with him she would have had to use a birth certificate in order to get a passport for young BARRY. Comes time to go to school, and he is listed as BARRY SOETORO, AND A MUSLIM. When he returned in his teens to Hawaii he would have had a passport from Indonesia. Being raised by Communist grandparents with help from Frank Marshall Davis of Commie FBI file fame, BARRY goes to Occidental College in California. Does he receive $$$$ from the US government for FOREIGN STUDENTS? If BARRY IS AN AMERICAN HE COMMITTED FRAUD IN RECEIVING AID TO FOREIGN STUDENTS. Fast forward a few years…while at college in 1981 BARRY, a poor, starving Foreign student flies to Pakistan from the US at a time when the US WAS NOT ISSUING PASSPORTS TO FLY TO PAKISTAN! In order to get a passport in the US or any other country one must present a birth certificate, or surrender your foreign passport. NO RECORD OF BARRY SOETORO DOING EITHER! No records now exist of his mother's (?) marriages, birth certificate, grandparents birth certificates or marriage certificate. IT IS AS IF BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA NEVER EXISTED BEFORE THE MID 90'S. THERE IS SOMETHING VERY BLACK AND EVIL IN HIS BACKGROUND THAT HE AND HIS HANDLER/PUPPET MASTER SOROS DO NOT WANT AMERICAN CITIZENS TO KNOW. IT WOULD PROBABLY PROVE THAT HE IS INELIGIBLE TO HAVE RUN FOR ANY OFFICE, MUCH LESS THE PRESIDENCY. SOROS HAS DELIVERED ON HIS PROMISE TO ATTEMPT TO TAKE DOWN THE UNITED STATES FROM WITHIN AND HE OWNS OBAMA, THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, AND SOME IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AS WELL. HE HAS BEEN ABLE TO PLACE GOVERNORS, JUDGES, UNIVERSITY PROFESSORS, STATE SECRETARIES OF STATE (they handle elections), BUY ELECTIONS. WHEN A PERSON SPENDS THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT OBAMA HAS SPENT HIDING HIS PAST, SOMETHING VERY EVIL IS GOING ON!
Wow, you are on the money……….
Honeybee, if your not 100% right your pretty darn close. As I will not be posting anymore I'm very glad to know that you and some other great Americans will continue to carry the torch and try to keep, the at the very least, the office of the presidency honest and sacred. Thanks to all and keep up the good fight. Sumerian Man
Seeing as how he was spotted not wearing a watch and ring during ramadan week, it drew fire from a reporter and the uncredentialed Mystery Man replied his watch was in for repair, I guess he must have been having a snakes tongue put on his ring.
Don't you people ever read anything other than each other's birther sites? And even then, apparently not closely, since you've got even the fake story from wrong, anyway–the ring (not the watch) was out for repair, and "drew fire" is an interesting addition to the false story that briefly appeared on anti-Obama blogs.
Other than that, though, you've done a typically fine job of reporting something that didn't happen.
Good try James! As usual you bore us! Go get a real job instead of this one !
Don't you people ever read anything other than each others birther sites?
Yes we can<<<<< that makes me smile to write, cause i would prefer "Oh no he didn't"
Barry's whole life is a lie and it is spread out to study and investigate. so"Yes I do"
Just warming up for the arrival of Ellen, I do enjoy the debate with her.
PS she just may need to study up on Barry and his life time cause one of the other websites that is not Birth Certificate related is got some possible but not confirmed data. I hop its is true and in keeping to not just spread other website rumors I shall wait to discuss it. It a dozy. Hint, about 4 mouths ago I stated that if Barry ever hit the 30's in approval rating the people under that bus he has been driving his whole life will turn.
"Some possible but not confirmed data"
Something like a unicorn sighting? Thanks, but I'll wait for confirmed–or at least credible–data."
I don't believe in Unicorns, but you must you like to use this reference. And I also noticed you don't respond to the truth about Some of Ellen's assertions that she added to her researched facts. She assumes that because his mother would of had to spend 20,000 dollars (in today market value)to fly from Kenya to Hawaii and so that is why it didn't happen. This is speculation and unless she was there how could she call this a fact. For two reason The cost and nobody know where his mother traveled in 1961. She states that his mother would of had to have a passport visa to travel because it was the law at the time. Really? No one can confirm that is correct and that that law was adhered to 100% in 1961. Also she has stated in the past that only US citizen in 1961 received an Hawaiian Certificate of Live birth in 1961, well there was 300 issued to people that were not born in the USA from 1961 to 1965 in Hawaii. Government statistic available on the state government site, or was until this was released by person that keep a copy. I do not know where he was born. I have lots of problems with the child going to Indonesia and the possibility that his mother and step father could of possibility changed his citizenship to get into a good school that was only available to citizens of that country. Then his going to school in California as possibly being and foreign student to receive a grant to pay for it. She states a academic scholarship but has no proof but the same dribble I and some use at this site. This is just a website James not Factcheck dot org dot annenburg foundation dot funded by soros spooky dudes. So if bring attention to her hypocrisy when she use speculation attached to "facts" I shall always bring that to hers and your attention.
Only people that would defend this man on any issue are the ones that are quite possibly seeing unicorns.
"I don't believe in Unicorns, but you must you like to use this reference.
Obviously I use it because it makes about as much sense as most birther claims.
"I also noticed you don't respond to the truth about Some of Ellen's assertions"
Why would I? That would indicate I care about the issue as more than a silly diversion. But since you asked, her assertions, derived from logic, make far more sense than most birther theories (though it's hard to keep track of all of those, with his two or three supposed birthplaces, a variety of supposed fathers, a variety of citizenship claims, etc.–none supported by credible evidence, yet all voiced with certainty despite the fact that they clearly contradict one another).
For example: "No one can confirm that is correct and that that law was adhered to 100% in 1961." While it's true we can't know that to be true, it is logically more likely than the fantabulous alternative birthers try to spin. Just as no one can be 100% sure that unicorns don't exist.
James you like & believe in fairies but i do not condemn you for it ! My opinion is that if you desire to be Bi or Gay then that is your preference & i should not condemn you for such. James with your face & glasses you resemble a toad but i never make reference to such ! I feel that it is not your fault that you were born ugly. But when it comes to Ellen your bott it is a bit too much for you to deny that she is your creation & her post are nothing more than your own opinions. Which may i add are not credible & totally ridiculous & nothing more than mere lies.
James, you seem to have selective logic.
James what is wrong with Unicorns ? Just because you are into Fairies? Gee you are such a waste !
I agree James McPherson needs to bring Ellen out of the closet.
Uncanny, just uncanny, are you seeing this Jim, Ellen. Why just the other day I –
Gee, another one of my short, non- profane comments is awaiting site approval. This is getting to be a real pain. I must be pissing someone in charge off somehow. So to whoever, I really don't think my being on this site will make any difference in the long haul anyway, so as not to waste any more of my precious time here I'm going do what you seem to want and (as we say in Chicago and New york) fogedabotit !
Being originally from Chicago and formerlly abstractly connected with a lot of the political scene there, and many times on the seedy or shady side of the veil, I can say confidently say I have never met or dealt with or heard of an honest politician in Chicago, for that matter Illinois. From my indoctrination in 1968 to my last year there in 1995 there has been nothing but fraud, corruption, payoff or payola, in every function of city and state government. And it's probably very safe to say nothing has changed, most of the same players are still there, some have gone to jail, many more have bought their way out, and the new faces there now are even dumber and greedier than their predecessors. So if anyone out there really thinks Obama is any different they couldn't be more wrong! He is just better funded and radically subserviant to his socialist handlers. And that is how it is in Chicago and most politics today.
Where have you been>??>?
Who else could get away with all this but the endtime Anti-Christ(Head Marxist), not the Beast, which is Islam, also Anti-Christ! Did you know that the Bible actually identifies in the Book of Revelation the countries that make up the "beast" in Revelation and they all are "Islamic" countries identified? The actual "anti-christ" uses the white horse in the UN and "notice" how "Obama" has already made a practice appearance! We have not seen anything yet! Watch!
We should no longer assume he has a birth cerificate but instead we should assume he does not unless proof is provided. He can not be a contender in any debate for president unless proof is shown. He can not be the Democratic nominee WITHOUT PROOF AND VERIFIED birth certificate through we the people not Nancy Pelosi. If it shown that he does not meet the requirements of President of the United States all of his laws signed into law are null and void, this would set our government back by years the damage is enormous. Since Obama having obtained a Coneticutt Social Security number I think we all know what the answer is. Be prepared! God Bless America!
So I assume you would also write, "We should no longer assume someone is innocent if they don't answer our questions, but instead we should assume they are guilty unless proof is provided."
Just kidding. As I assume you were, with that "all laws null and void" fantasy.
James you the Liberals & Democrats make a mockery of our laws so just don't go there ! Only a fool such as yourself would believe otherwise than dbledgesword.
