Kobach faces birther questions amid Obama birth certificate debate
GOP hopeful Kris Kobach confronts ongoing birther questions as Obama birth claims linger. The White House declines comment with officials noting Obama is a natural born citizen. Kobach cites a lack of a long form birth certificate as a potential issue, while others dismiss the controversy as a non factor.

The Kansas primary looms with Kobach facing rivals in the 1st District race and August 3 voting. Note: the piece also notes Kobach's ties to immigration policy and prior controversial remarks.
