Kenya gained its independence from the United Kingdom in December of 1963, but was known as the Dominion of Kenya until December of 1964 - 10 months after this copy was allegedly made - when it became a republic and changed its name.

The certificate's header reads Coast Province -- but according to the professors, at the time the document is dated, what are now known as provinces were called regions.

Writes Dan Branch, an assistant professor of African history at the University of Warwick:

"It seems highly implausible and certainly a hoax. I have not seen any documents from this period in early 1964 that uses the heading of Republic of Kenya - unsurprisingly given Kenya was not a Republic until December 1964. Moreover, the label of 'Region' was being used in early 1964 instead of 'Province.' While some of the old colonial forms may have still been in circulation, which would have used 'Coast Province,' these would have been headed as 'Colony & Protectorate of Kenya.'

Look, I don't like what's going on in politics today either (by either side), but that horse has been dead for a couple of years now and its not going to get any new life.
Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.

If you type "Barack Obama" into Google one of the top ten autocompletions that comes up is "birth certificate". Evidently it is NOT a dead horse for a lot of people

So what you are saying is that there is no shortage of really stupid and gullible idiots in the world, correct?
If you are a "birther", you are, by your own admittance, a really stupid and gullible person.

I KNEW IT! I found his REAL birth certificate! What do all you lying "kenyaners" say now?



Here it is:

Barack Sr and Barack Jr

Does anyone know if that is a conveyor belt for luggage or a security checkpoint right behind Barack and Barack? Seems like rather lax security.

Yep. And if you type "birther" into it you get "Barack Obama Conspiracy Theories" as the first hit. If you type "birther insane" you get 409,000 hits.
