Former Hawaii elections clerk Tim Adams has now signed an affidavit
swearing he was told by his supervisors in Hawaii that no long-form,
hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Barack Obama Jr. in
Hawaii and that neither Queens Medical Center nor Kapi’olani Medical
Center in Honolulu had any record of Obama having been born in their
medical facilities.

His position was senior elections clerk, overseeing a group of 50 to
60 employees responsible for verifying the identity of voters at the
Absentee Ballot Office. It was in this capacity that Adams became aware
of the search for Obama’s birth-certificate records.
“During the course of my employment,” Adams swears in the affidavit (viewable in full as
part 1 and
part 2),
“I became aware that many requests were being made to the City and
County of Honolulu Elections Division, the Hawaii Office of Elections,
and the Hawaii Department of Health from around the country to obtain a
copy of then-Senator Barack Obama’s long-form, hospital-generated birth
certificate.”
As he inquired about the birth certificate, he says, his supervisors
told him that the records were not on file at the Hawaii Department of
Health.
“Senior officers in the City and County of Honolulu Elections
Division told me on multiple occasions that no Hawaii long-form,
hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Senator Obama in the
Hawaii Department of Health,” Adams’ affidavit reads, “and there was no
record that any such document had ever been on file in the Hawaii
Department of Health or any other branch or department of the Hawaii
government.”

In a recorded telephone interview, Adams told WND that it was common
knowledge among election officials where he worked that no long-form,
hospital-generated birth certificate could be found at the Hawaii
Department of Health.
“My supervisor came and told me, ‘Of course, there’s no birth
certificate. What? You stupid,’” Adams said. “She usually spoke well,
but in saying this she reverted to a Hawaiian dialect. I really didn’t
know how to respond to that. She said it and just walked off. She was
quite a powerful lady.”
Moreover, Adams was told that neither Queens Memorial Hospital nor
Kapi’olani Medical Center had any records of Obama’s birth at their
medical facilities: “Senior officers in the City and County of Honolulu
Elections Division further told me on multiple occasions that Hawaii
State government officials had made inquires about Sen. Obama’s birth
records to officials at Queens Medical Center and Kapi’olani Medical
Center in Honolulu and that neither hospital had any record of Senator
Obama having been born there, even though Governor Abercrombie is now
asserting and various Hawaii government officials continue to assert
Barack Obama Jr. was born at Kapi’olani Medical Center on Aug. 4, 1961.”
“We called the two hospitals in Honolulu: Queens and Kapi’olani,”
Adams stressed. “Neither of them have any records that Barack Obama was
born there.”
In 2009,
WND documented
that Obama and his supporters had first claimed he was born at Queens
Medical Center in Honolulu, before the story changed to Kapi’olani
Medical Center in Honolulu.
After
WND’s report on the two conflicting hospitals,
online news sites including the United Press International and
Snopes.com scrubbed their websites to eliminate any reference to Queens
Medical Center, substituting instead that Obama was born at Kapi’olani
Medical Center without explaining the discrepancy or the correction.
Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie |
In 2010, then-candidate for governor Neil Abercrombie
was involved in an Obama birth controversy
when he read a letter at a Kapi’olani Medical Center centennial dinner
in Honolulu that supposedly was authored by President Obama, claiming
Kapi’olani as his birth hospital.
As WND reported,
the letter read by Abercrombie and initially displayed on the
Kapi’olani website turned out to be a computer-created likeness of a
letter using HTML code, the building blocks of Internet websites, not an
actual paper letter.
The White House has still not confirmed it wrote or sent the letter.
Moreover, Adams claims, the Hawaii government was engaged in a
cover-up designed to tell the American public through the
Obama-supporting mainstream media that Obama was born in Hawaii, even
though no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate for Obama
could be found on record in the Hawaii Department of Health.
In the affidavit Adams swears, “During the course of my employment, I
came to understand that for political reasons, various officials in the
government of Hawaii, including then-Governor Linda Lingle and various
officials of the Hawaii Department of Health, including Dr. Chiyome
Fukino, the director of the Hawaii Department of Health, were making
representations that Senator Obama was born in Hawaii, even though no
government official in Hawaii could find a long-form birth certificate
for Senator Obama that had been issued by a Hawaii hospital at the time
of his birth.”
Adams further swears his supervisors told him to quit asking about Obama’s birth records.
“During the course of my employment,” Adams states in the affidavit,
“I was told by senior officers in the City and County of Honolulu
Elections Division to stop inquiring about Senator Obama’s Hawaii birth
records, even though it was common knowledge among my fellow employees
that no Hawaii long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed
for Senator Obama.”
“I can go get my long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate,”
Adams told WND. “And so I don’t understand, this whole controversy
should have been settled three or four years ago in about five minutes.”
Nor does Adams feel the short-form Certification of Live Birth is
authoritative documentation proving that Obama was born in Hawaii.
“My basic assumption is that he wasn’t born there,” Adams said.
“Certifications of Live Birth were given to people who were born at
home, or to people who were born overseas and whose parents brought them
back to the islands. If his parents were U.S. citizens, or if one
parent was a U.S. citizen, as was the case with Obama, the family would
apply for a Hawaiian birth certificate when the parents came back from
overseas. That’s normally how you would have gotten on [a Certification
of Live Birth] in the 1960s.”
WND has reported
that in 1961, Obama’s grandparents, Stanley and Madelyn Dunham, could
have made an in-person request at the Hawaii Department of Health for a
registration of a Hawaii birth, even if the infant Barack Obama Jr. had
been foreign-born.
In the past few days, Abercrombie has represented that there is a registration of Obama’s birth in the state archives.
But the state registration of birth in 1961 theoretically could prove
only that the grandparents had registered Obama’s birth, even if Obama
was not born in Hawaii.
Similarly, the newspaper announcements of baby Obama’s birth do not
prove he was born in Hawaii, since the newspaper announcements could
have been triggered by the grandparents appearing in-person to register
baby Obama as a Hawaiian birth, even if the baby was born elsewhere.
WND has documented
that the address reported in the birth announcements published in the
Hawaii newspapers at the time, 6085 Kalanianaole Highway, was the
address where the grandparents lived.
Dunham did not return to Hawaii until after Barack Obama Sr. left
Hawaii in June 1962 to attend graduate school at Harvard University in
Cambridge, Mass.
It’s possible the yet-undisclosed birth record in the state archives
that Abercrombie has discovered may have come from the grandparents
registering baby Obama’s birth, an event that would have triggered both
the newspaper birth announcements and availability of a Certification of
Live Birth, even if no long-form record exists.
WND has confirmed
with Glen Takahashi, elections administrator for the city and county of
Honolulu, that Adams was indeed working in their elections offices
during the last presidential election.
“We hire temporary workers, because we’re seasonal,” Takahashi told WND.
Adams told WND he supported Hillary Clinton during the 2008 presidential election campaign.
He described himself as a libertarian who wants less government
spending, fewer laws that restrict personal freedoms, more adherences to
the Constitution and an end to foreign wars.
“I’m interested in individual liberty and upholding the
Constitution,” he said. “I want to get American troops out from foreign
countries, and I want to see the federal budget balanced.”
He said he might be inclined to support former-Arkansas Governor Mike
Huckabee or former-Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney in 2012 to run
against President Obama, but he has not yet made up his mind.
“It depends on how fiscally conservative Huckabee and Romney turn out
to be on economics,” he said. “But from what I know right now, they
would probably be better than Obama.”
