Ask your friends what he thinks are the chances of somebody posting a fake birth announcement in the newspaper.

It isn't just his friends. I-node at least used to make a spirited defense of that part of birtherism. IIRC, it involved his very pregnant mother traveling to Kenya at a time when very pregnant women weren't allowed to travel very far and getting to Kenya was not very easy even for people who weren't pregnant. And her parents, Being well-versed in the relevant law and realizing that Barack would one day be a presidential candidate, managed to get a faked birth announcement planted in a couple of newspapers at the time....

Occam's Razor is not something i-node is familiar with.
