The Obama birth certificate is back in the news and people are saying because it says in the blank RACE African American that it cant be real because back in the late 50s early 60s that term wasn't used.

Also the type face is in question. What do you think

Here is a google image of the suspect document stating race as African



I dont know if this image or the document for that matter is real

What difference does it make whether Obama's birth certificate is original, or totally accurate? Are you concerned about politicians' honesty? giggle

Does it matter where he was born? Will it make him a worse or better leader? I personally could not comment on his birth cert unless I had seen it first hand. You can make anything look real or fake on the net.

In fact I would not know how a real US birth cert should look.laugh But I am sure with his connections if he did not have a real one he does now!

The part circled seems to be race? Not where he was born? Mothers race is Caucasian and fathers race seems to be African? The black line obscures some of it but you can see race in the heading of the word African.dunno

What kind of prodding? confused

Y'know, I have no idea if my, or my mother's birth certificate is entirely accurate. I don't see how my mother could have survived the war without 'false' papers; that is, papers with some pertinent information to the climate, missing. However, her birth certificate and passport are both accurate given current criteria, even if they didn't fit the bill 70 years ago.

I could change my birth certificate legally for about £20. It would be perfectly accurate, but not original.

I suspect if you did a little DNA testing, you might be surprised about the lack of detail on your birth certificate indicating 'who' you are.

Birth certificates by nature are fluid and inaccurate on so many levels.

Why is Obama being singled out as having to be exclusive in terms of his identity, where no one else is? What difference does it make which human being you have act as president in terms of precise identity? Why would any skeletons, known, or unknown, in Obama's closet effect his belief system, his decisions, or his ability to the job he's doing, any more than the skeletons in my closet, or your closet affect our ability to do ours?

If you want to see how tall someone is, do you measure their eye colour?

Its relevant because if he wasnt born in the US his presidency is ILLEGAL along with all his wars.

How is my DNA going to tell me whether I was born in Peoria Il or not?

You, however, seem reticent to tell me why Obama's birth certificate is an issue within the context of my thoughts, or any criteria which would invalidate his identity in some way. Why is that?

What is the issue with his birth certificate? Why is it important enough to question?

Within your thoughts, you might not have a problem with it. Other people might have a problem with "democratic" leaders lying and concealing information such as this though.
I believe he is who he says he is though so if I was American I would be happy with that!

And that is what I was trying to establish. Why someone else might have a problem, where I don't.

That's why I expressed my thoughts. It gives others a point, or some points, of reference to explain to me their own rationale within a framework I can relate to...and vice versa.

You bring a psychological twist to everything and it can be confusing at times. Other people will probably have a problem with this because of their belief in ideas such as democracy. You probably don't have a problem with it because you read too many psychology books.laugh
Putnam, Sen and Dahl would probably be better references to pull from in a debate on the need for open and transparent leadership in a democracy.
Answering your question, I believe that democracy is flawed basically because people are flawed. But I do think that people are progressing on this matter. All of them honest. No. Is it better than 30 years ago. I think soo.

I don't know anything about American politics at all and precious little about the culture(s), so may I go back to this and aske for some more information?

I'm almost entirely observing from the outside and trying to follow this train of thought.

To which wars of Obama's do you refer?

What date were these wars declared?

What date did Obama take office as president?

Or maybe if you could just give me a rough idea of the time line within these parameters. dunno

mr1983: You bring a psychological twist to everything and it can be confusing at times.

Okay, I'll try to clearer.
mr1983: Other people will probably have a problem with this because of their belief in ideas such as democracy. You probably don't have a problem with it because you read too many psychology books.

I think you're mixing up the different disciplines of psychology and democracy. They're not mutually exclusive. One may have political beliefs and also have an interest in psychology. There obviously is a fair amount of overlap, however, both ways. Politics impacts upon psychology and psychology impacts upon politics - I'm not sure any place demonstrates this link more than the US.

When you say, 'a problem with it', are you referring to Obama's birth certificate? I'm actually wondering if the implication of your statements here is that if I don't view Obama's birth certificate as being the greatest evidence for a war being unjust, then I can't possibly value democracy. That would be an enormous leap of logic on your part, so shall I discount that?
mr1983: Putnam, Sen and Dahl would probably be better references to pull from in a debate on the need for open and transparent leadership in a democracy.

Please expand on this if you have the time and inclination, I'm interested.
mr1983: Answering your question, I believe that democracy is flawed basically because people are flawed. But I do think that people are progressing on this matter. All of them honest. No. Is it better than 30 years ago. I think soo.

I agree, democracy is flawed, but maybe for many reasons as well as people being flawed. Maybe its flawed because its not true democracy. dunno

To bring in your point about transparency, the very nature of our 'democratic' systems is such that it would be impossible to have everyone informed of and involved in every detail on a practical level. I dare say it wouldn't be welcomed by those in power, either. The mere fact of omission would suggest a lack of transparency is inherent.

The question for me would be which transparencies are the priorities for a 'democracy' to function optimally?

The actual location of the birthplace of the president? Or the actual justification for a war where people are getting killed and/or living in hellish conditions?

Who cares. the point is that he is not real. He is the biggest joke ever to come to the presidency. He is that unsavory character that most people of color despise. He brings nothing to the table except deceit, lies, cover ups and his band of cohorts. I apologize to those who read this, but I am so tired of his attempts at being a leader for he is empty of leadership, unable to face his mistakes and he forgets the teachings of a great man Martin Luther King. He is succeeding in moving people of color back into the ages of darkness. What a waste of education and all that brought him to the office of president.Its going to be a long three years
