Did Obama mention in his book he was born in Kenya?

To a friend who believes Obama was born outside the US I sent him links to all the excellent articles on this site. But then I got this reply:

Why would he claim to be Kenyan born in his campaign for Illinois Senate?

What passport did he travel on when he went to prohibited countries as a student?

27% of the people believing he is foreign born is a substantial amount, knowing he has spent millions of dollars to avoid going to court over it.

The only birth certificates released were forged as proven by forensic experts, including the Maricopa County Sheriff.

Doesn't matter what Trump said. Obama has never proved his citizenship.

I know the subject has been exhausted but I'm convinced there are answers to those questions and I can finally put this to rest! And, sure, I've asked for citations about things like saying he was Kenyan born during his campaign but all I get are links to more conspiracy theory sites and fake news stories.

  • This covers the "Kenyan-born" state senate business - he never claimed it, a Kenyan newspaper erroneously altered an Associated Press article to say so: snopes.com/politics/obama/birthers/ap.asp

    Which "prohibited countries?" This claim is vague and I can't find any other reference to it online.

    How can it possibly be pertinent what 27% of the people believe? 27% of the people are dumb as a post (an estimate, based on the above statements) and are willing to believe whatever their favorite media machine feeds them.

    The only thing even remotely accurate in the claim is the first sentence of the final paragraph. It doesn't matter what Donald Trump says. Never has, never will.
