The Three Unanswered Questions Adas printed in The Washington Times National Weekly in the November 17, 24, and Dec. 8editions and in Human Events on Dec. 8:
Exhibit A: The Grandmother’s tape
Barack Obama’s own grandmother said he was born in Kenya. While politicians are known for it, grandmothers seldom lie. It’s recorded on tape: “I was in the delivery room in [Mombosa,] Kenya, when he was born Aug. 4, 1961.” – Sarah Obama, Obama’s paternal grandmother
Exhibit B: No Original Birth Certificate
Experts have called the Certification of Live Birth posted online a forgery. Berg reported “It’s clearly been altered,” which invalidates it, according to the document itself. Add to this the Hawaiian law at the time which allowed people to register for this non-hospital short form certifi cate (without a doctor’s signature) up to one year from the date of the child’s birth.
Exhibit C: Indonesian citizenship
Only Indonesian citizens could attend Indonesian schools at the time Barack Obama attended the Indonesian school where he was registered as Barry Soetoro. His citizenship was listed as Indonesian, his religion as Islam, and his father as Lolo Soetoro, M.A. There was also no dual citizenship at the time. If he was adopted by his Indonesian stepfather, he would have forfeited any U.S. citizenship he may have had, just as when a child is adopted in America, he or she becomes an American.
Exhibit D: U.S. Law
In addition, according to U.S. law pertaining to births abroad, from “Dec. 24, 1952, to Nov. 13, 1986,” in order to register the child’s birth as a U.S. natural-born citizen at the time of Obama’s birth, he or she must be: 1. Born to two U.S. citizen
parents; OR 2. If only one parent was a U.S. citizen at the time of the birth, that
parent must have resided in the United States for at least 10 years, at least five of
which must be after the age of 14.
Since Barack Obama’s father was not a U.S. citizen and Obama’s mother was only 18 at the time of his birth, she failed to meet the legal requirements of U.S. residency for at least five years after the age of 14.

Listen to the tape again. What she said, if she understood the question, was "yes." That's all.
But did she understand the question?
Here's what Slate reports:
“None of that stopped Berg from stoking the conspiracy theorists. On Oct. 16, an Anabaptist minister named Ron McRae called Sarah Hussein Obama, the president-elect’s 86-year-old paternal step-grandmother, at her home in Kenya. Two translators were on the line when McRae asked if the elder Obama was “present” when the president-elect was born. One of the translators says “yes.” McRae contacted Berg and gave him a partial transcript of the call with a signed affidavit. He opted not to include the rest of the call, in which he asks the question more directly—”Was he born in Mombassa?”—and the translators, finally understanding him, tell him repeatedly that the president-elect was born in Hawaii.”
I listened to the tape as well, and I could not tell that she understood the question. It was clear, however, that the whole interview was designed to get the "yes." And once it was gotten, the interviewer failed to ask any substantiating questions, such as "what was the name of the hospital.'
To be sure, Corsi has said it was Coastal Hospital in Mombassa, but what if the grandmother had failed to confirm this? What if she had been asked "what hospital?" and she replied, "I did not mean I was literally with him in the hospital. I meant that I was his step-grandmother at the time."?
The latter is likely to have been the meaning of the "yes," but there are some who say it referred to Obama being a child of the village.
In any case, it is not evidence. Why no documents from Kenya? Why no photos of baby Obama with his grandparents or his mother with her inlaws?
Why, if Obama's mother had really given birth in Kenya, would she not be proud of it? Why not, if she had done something unusual, such as give birth in Kenya, didn't she tell her friends all about it? If she did, surely some of them would have remembered that she did.
No, the document in Hawaii has not been forged, and there is not a Kenyan birth certificate in the Hawaii files. Obama was born in Hawaii.
