“[Obama]’s grandmother, in Kenya, said he was born in Kenya and she was there and witnessed the birth, okay? He doesn’t have a birth certificate or he hasn’t shown it. He has what’s called a certificate of live birth…

“Three weeks ago I thought he was born in this country, right now I have some real doubts. I have people that have been actually studying it and they cannot believe what they’re finding… They can not believe what they are finding [in Hawaii]. I would like to have him to show his birth certificate. And can I be honest with you? I hope he can. Because if he can’t, if he can’t, and if he wasn’t born in this country, which it a real possibility – I’m not saying it happened, I’m saying it’s a real possibility, much greater than I thought two or three weeks ago – then he’s pulled one of the greatest cons in the history of politics, and beyond politics.”

“[Obama]’s grandmother in Kenya said, ‘Oh no, he was born in Kenya and I was there and I witnessed the birth.’ Now, she’s on tape and I think that tape’s going to be produced fairly soon… The grandmother in Kenya is on record saying he was born in Kenya.”

“A book publisher came out three days ago and said that in his written synopsis of his book [Obama] said he was born in Kenya and raised in Indonesia… Now they’re saying it was a mistake. Just like his Kenyan grandmother said he was born in Kenya, and she pointed down the road to the hospital, and after people started screaming at her she said, ‘Oh, I mean Hawaii.’ Give me a break.”

“Obama came out with a book that wasn’t published, you remember the famous book. It said a young man from Kenya. He – I was offered – I offered him a tremendous amount of money just to – didn’t want to see his marks. I just wanted to see place of birth… He was perhaps born in Kenya…

“There are – there are people in this country – I walk down the street they say please don’t give up. Please don’t give up on the whole thing with the birth certificate. I hope it’s 100% fine. A lot of people are questioning the birth certificate. They are questioning its authenticity.”

“Who knows [whether Obama was born in the U.S.]? Who cares right now? We’re talking about something else, OK? I mean, I have my own theory on Obama. Someday I’ll write a book. I’ll do another book. It’ll do very successfully.”

“I’ll answer [whether Obama was born in the U.S.] at the right time. I just don’t want to answer it yet… I don’t talk about it anymore. The reason I don’t is because then everyone is going to be talking about it as opposed to jobs, the military, the vets, security.”
