Wikipedia is not always correct, but neither is snopes.com.
Also, in 1961 the term "Black" was starting to be used, but not "African-American",
Subject: GOOD DETECTIVE WORK ON OBAMA
1. Back in 1961 people of color were called 'Negroes'. So how can the
Obama birth certificate state he is 'African-American' when the term
wasn't even used at that time?
2. The birth certificate that the White House released lists Obama's
birth as August 4, 1961. It also lists Barack Hussein Obama as his
father. No big deal, right? At the time of Obama's birth, it also shows
that his father is age 25 years old and that Obama's father was born in
"Kenya, East Africa". This wouldn't seem like anything of concern, except
the fact that Kenya did not even exist until 1963, two whole years after
Obama's birth and 27 years after his father's birth. How could Obama's
father have been born in a country that did not yet exist? Up and until
Kenya was formed in 1963, it was known as the "British East Africa
Protectorate".
3. On the birth certificate released by the White House, the listed place
of birth is "Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital". This cannot
be, because the hospital(s) in question in 1961 were called "KauiKeolani
Children's Hospital" and "Kapi'olani Maternity Home", respectively. The
name did not change to Kapi'olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital
until 1978, when these two hospitals merged. How can this particular name
of the hospital be on a birth certificate dated 1961 if this name had not
yet been applied to it until 1978?
Why hasn't this been discussed in the major media?????
Please send this to everyone you know with the hope that we can force the
media, as well OUR NATION, to address this CORRUPTION.
