Publisher offers to pay black Hawaiians for copies of birth certificates
Source: RawStory.com
The publisher of a homespun conspiracy newspaper has several black activists in Hawaii alarmed after he offered to pay them each $50 for copies of their birth certificates so he can expose that President Barack Obama is secretly not American. The scheme, hatched by Molokai Advertiser-News publisher George Peabody, came to the attention of reporter Anita Hofschneider with the Honolulu Civil Beat.
Hofschneider noted that Peabody contacted the Martin Luther King Jr. Coalition, the African American Heritage Foundation of Maui and the Hawaii NAACP on August 25, asking each groups leaders for copies of their birth certificates.
If you or your Negro members were born in Hawaii between 1955 to 1965, I will pay $50 for a copy of your Hawaii long form certified birth certificate, he reportedly wrote.
A photo on the papers Facebook page shows a man smiling as he holds a copy of Jerome Corsis Where Is The Birth Certificate, a conspiracy tome that claims no lawful authority has ever verified the presidents birth certificate. Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie (D), who knew both of Obamas parents at the time of the presidents birth, apparently doesnt count.

(I'm not even going to try to defend this strange song from one of the world's strangest bands, but I think it is about being so racist and unfamiliar with another sub-culture that they appear to be aliens from outer space, or something. If you were to ask Gibby Haynes what he meant, he wouldn't remember, anyway.)
