Wow, 1961 Memo From Immigration File On Obama's Father
by Julie GuldenFollow

Here it is....will it FINALLY put this birther crap to bed?

A hand written document (from the U.S. citizenship and Immigration Service through a F.O.I.A. request) offers more evidence that President Obama was born in Hawaii. Hats off to Heather Smathers, a staff writer for the AZ Independent.

A copy of the memo (hand written) is posted at the link below.

http://www2.az-independent.com/2011/04/26/independent-exclusive-dads-immigration-file-offers-more-evidence-of-obamas-birthplace/

A memo dated Aug. 31, 1961 from William Wood of Immigration and Naturalization Services indicates that Barack Obama, Sr., was attending the University of Hawaii on a student visa and that a son, Barack Obama, II, was born in Honolulu on Aug, 8, 1961.

The memo refers to Obama Sr.’s plans to attend the University of Hawaii for one more year to obtain his bachelor’s degree in economics, and that his spouse, a United States citizen, plans to work at the university.
“They have one child born Honolulu on 8/4/1961 – Barack Obama II, child living with mother (she lives with her parents & subject resides at 1482 Alisteastre St.),” the memo states.

The rest of the article discusses Obama's father in quite unfavorable terms. It's quite sad to read. For the record, I get no pleasure whatsoever out of bringing this next paragraph to you. The sad fact of life is, like it or not, this is what the media will be focused on tomorrow. (unless they turn over a new leaf overnight.)
An INS investigator, M.F. McKeon, wrote “They (Harvard officials) weren’t very impressed with him and asked us to hold up action on his application until they decided what action they could take in order to get rid of him. They were apparently having difficulty with his financial arrangements and couldn’t seem to figure out how many wives he had.”

Documents show that Harvard officials considered Obama, Sr. to be a “slippery character,” and conspired with the INS to have him deported.

Donald, so sorry that Heather Smathers is ruining your fun...now go get a haircut.

1. The fact that he was a 25 yr old black man (a furriner-from africa) and had gotten
a white teenaged girl pregnant probably tainted their impression of him.. Racism was not only for the deep south of the mainland in 1961

2. I'm sure they will call it a forgery, too.

3. You'll never put the issue to bed until Obama stops being black.
That's really what this is all about. Did anyone ask for McCain's birth certificate? Palin's? Biden's? How about the shrub? Darth Cheney?
