A "birther" is someone who believes that President Obama was not actually born in the United States and, therefore, is ineligible to be President.

No. Not even the conspiracy theorists and birthers who allege that he is not American make the claim that he is Egyptian.


Why is Obama ok about talking about his alleged Irish birth but not his Indonesian birth?

Obama has never discussed his "Indonesian birth" because even among Birthers this is considered outlandish speculation. Both Birthers and people interested in Obama's actual, provided birth materials agree that Obama lived in the United States for a few years prior to moving with his mother to Indonesia. The difference between Birthers and those who acknowledge that Obama was born in the United States is that Birthers allege that he was born in Kenya before being moved to the United States. This claim has been demonstrably proven false on several occasions. As for "Irish birth", no one has ever claimed that Barack Obama was Irish (nationality). His mother was of predominantly English ancestry, with some Irish mixed in, but her family had been in the United States for some time.


How do you tell how many babies your guppy is going to have?

You can only make an estimate based on previous research. Guppies are live birthers, and you can't exactly give them an ultrasound.


Who is barry soetoro?

There is no such person. It's a mythical name created by a group of people called "Birthers" (who persist in believing the president was actually born in Kenya, when in fact it is well-documented that he was born in the United States). There is NO evidence that Barack Obama used the name Barry Soetoro, nor did his stepfather ever legally adopt him. Some of the Birthers like to claim Mr. Obama used this name at Columbia where he was allegedly a "foreign student." He did not, and he was not.

Is Barack Obama a legal President if he was born in Indonesia but was brought back to Hawaii as a baby?

If Obama were born in Indonesia instead of Hawaii, he would not meet the qualifications to be US president. This is why "birthers" keep making noise.


Why is Obama's ssn from Connecticut?

It isn't. This is another internet myth, spread by the Birthers, people who insist the president was not born here. But he was, and the story of the Connecticut social security number is a fraud. I enclose one of the many links that explains it.


Why does Barack Obama have a 042 prefix for SSN that's for Connecticut?

He does not. The 042 claim is not based on fact. It comes from a group of people called the "Birthers," who believe the president was not born in the United States and his birth certificate is a fake. The claim you cited, that he has a social security number from someone who is deceased (or from someone living in Connecticut, depending on which version you have heard), is one of the most common assertions made by the Birthers, but it is not true. The information to support this claim comes from a woman named Orly Taitz, who is not a reliable or objective source, since she believes the president is from Kenya and has repeatedly tried, and failed, to prove this. A number of reliable websites, such as snopes.com and factcheck.org have shown over and over that her claims are false, but she and the Birthers persist in believing the president is from another country. He is not. He was born in Hawaii, and while I have not seen his Social Security card, I would imagine he got his first one in whatever city where he had his first job as a kid.


Was Barack Obama born in America?

Yes, absolutely. This has been repeatedly documented. He was born in Honolulu, Hawaii on August 4, 1961. Unfortunately, there is a small group of people called "Birthers" who refuse to accept that the president was in fact born in the United States, but he was.


What percentage of voters do not know that Obama was born in Kenya and is not eligible for president?

There is a small number (about 19%) of Republicans, called "Birthers" who insist that the president was born in Kenya. Everyone else knows this is a myth. The president was in fact born in Hawaii and is thus quite eligible to be president.
