>Finally, dating back to his college days, there are different individuals who have stated that Obama told them he was born in Kenya. Of course, this is hearsay. However, I do tend to believe that some of them are telling the truth. They were random individuals in college, during his time as a lawyer, and during his run for the Senate. These individuals have no connection between them, other than the fact that they all knew him.

Similar to my visualization: O gave somewhat imprecise/misleading/"mysterious" answers perhaps like "my (male?) roots are in Kenya", which was afterwards remembered as O was born there. Does fit more in the picture of a college party than lawyer time, but perhaps it grew into something he later used after gettng positive results - standard pieces used in smalltalk with horkos odonton on automatic while thinking about something else with logical part of the brain...

>One last point - something I read on a libertarian blog and one I agree with. Why did the Obama camp scream bloody murder when someone raised questions about his background, and only released his birth certificate when Trump forced the issue so hard that it caused Obama damage in public polls? The true explanation is that Obama would never have been embarrassed if people found out (hypothetically) that he lied about being born in Hawaii, since he knew he was born in Hawaii - he's FAR more fearful that the earlier embellishment about being born in Kenya would come back to haunt him. And THAT is the point that the mainstream media has completely missed.

For me that was a pure red herring manouver that was so successful it somewhat backfired ;-))
