The Importance of Obama’s Birth Certificate
As most of you know, there’s a question whether our current president was truly born in the United States. This sitting president, President Obama, has spent considerable money in an effort not to produce a birth certificate.
The reason why this is so important is that our own Constitution requires that any sitting president be native born to America. If our Constitution is to mean anything, that law and all others need to be followed.
Under Article II, is says: “No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”
President Obama stated in his first book that he ran across his birth certificate. Why won’t he just produce it? We all know the reason why most people would do this… but is it the same in this situation?

Re: “there’s a question whether our current president was truly born in the United States. ”
There’s no question. Obama has posted and shown to both Polifact and Factcheck the OFFICIAL birth certificate of Hawaii, and the facts on it were confirmed twice by the authorities in Hawaii, and the notices in the newspapers were sent out by the government of Hawaii for births IN Hawaii (and not for births outside of Hawaii).
As the Wall Street Journal puts it: “Obama has already provided a legal birth certificate demonstrating that he was born in Hawaii. No one has produced any serious evidence to the contrary. Absent such evidence, it is unreasonable to deny that Obama has met the burden of proof. We know that he was born in Honolulu as surely as we know that Bill Clinton was born in Hope, Ark., or George W. Bush in New Haven, Conn.”
Re: “President Obama stated in his first book that he ran across his birth certificate.”
Because since then it has been lost. And, Hawaii does not send out copies of the original anymore. It only sends out the Certification of Live Birth, which is the official birth certificate of Hawaii: Click Here

The link you provide may very well be correct, but here’s the rub: In his first book, Obama says that he had run across his original birth certificate along with other childhood documents. Why not simply provide a copy of it to the media rather than spend so much money in court so he doesn’t have to? Also, it has been said that Obama’s maternal grandmother once stated that he was born in Kenya. How can all of this be so easily dismissed?

Re: the grandmother.
Obama’s Kenyan grandmother never said that he was born in Kenya. She said that he was born in Hawaii.
This can be clearly heard if you listen to the complete recording of the tape, which is on Berg’s site. The complete recording includes a question asking “Whereabouts was he born?” And her answer was: “America, Hawaii.”
Here is the complete recording on Berg’s site. Be sure to listen for at least five minutes until the question is asked. (http://obamacrimes.com/Telephone_Interview_with_Sarah_Hussein_Obama_10-16-08.mp3)
If it is too difficult to listen to the complete tape, here is a transcript (http://www.obamaconspiracy.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/obamatranscriptlulu109.pdf).

Re: “In his first book, Obama says that he had run across his original birth certificate along with other childhood documents.’
That was a long time ago. Since then, he lost it. Most likely he left the original in the old book in which he found it, and the book got thrown out during a move. So, like others who have lost their original birth certificates, he asked Hawaii to send him another one. We know that Hawaii sends out only the Certification of Live Birth, so that is all that he has.
But, not to worry, the Certification of Live Birth is the official birth certificate of Hawaii, and it is accepted as proof of birth in Hawaii by the US State Department, and the facts on it that Obama was born in Hawii in 1961 was confirmed twice by the authorities in Hawaii.

Congressman Trent Franks seems to think that Obama has a choice in the matter of releasing his long BC or just the short form. In Ohio, I can buy either one, it’s my choice. Why would it be different in Hawaii, not to say it’s not.
Also, why would Franks seem to think this, having said, “Probably, Barack Obama could solve this problem and make the birthers, you know, back off, by simply showing us his long-form birth certificate. That’d solve the problem. There’s some other issue, I don’t know what it is, that he doesn’t want people to see the birth certificate on.”
Why would Congressman Franks assume that Obama has a choice?

Re: “Why would it be different in Hawaii, not to say it’s not. ”
It’s different in Hawaii. Why? Who knows. States have the right to do what they want to do. States’ rights. In any case, all that Hawaii sends out is the Certification of Live Birth, and that is all that Obama can show because that is all that he has got.
However, that is the official birth certificate of Hawaii, and it has been confirmed twice by the authorities in Hawaii. So, what is the need for anything else?
Indeed, as the Wall Street Journal commented: “The release of the obsolete birth certificate [the original] would not “resolve the issue” to those for whom it is not already resolved. They claim without basis that today’s birth certificate is a fake; there is nothing to stop them from claiming without basis that yesterday’s is as well.’ In other words, they would not back off.
So, (1) Obama does not have the original; and (2) If he did, it would not help to release it.
Re “something else that he does not want people to see the birth certificate on.”
He has posted the official birth certificate of Hawaii. That is more than any other president has done. No president has even shown his birth certificate to a group of people, much less put it online and show the physical copy.

No other sitting president would have spent the sum of money that Obama has spent NOT to produce the original either. And if there had been a question in this regard, I feel certain that any previous president would have done the right thing and would have found a way to provide the long version. Again, we know that Obama had it when he wrote his first book.
Although the state of Hawaii may have adopted a new version of BC, the older one would still exist on microfiche.
Also, the argument that “…there is nothing to stop them from claiming without basis that yesterday’s is as well.’ In other words, they would not back off” is like a two-edged sword. It could be applied to those who defend this fellow no matter what he does.
I see no way to resolve this issue until Hawaii digs up the microfiche frame that contains this President’s original BC.

Re: “No other sitting president would have spent the sum of money that Obama has spent NOT to produce the original either.”
The lawsuits are not to get the birth certificate. They are to remove him from being president. Naturally he opposes this. There has never been a lawsuit against Obama that simply asked for his birth certificate. If one did, and the court asked to see the birth certificate, Obama would provide the one that Hawaii sent him, the official birth certificate.
The plaintiffs might then say “but this is not sufficient,” but the court would say “this is the official birth certificate of Hawii,” unless you can prove that there is something wrong with this, the count will accept it.”
So, when you say “I see no way to resolve this issue,” you are wrong. The issue has been resolved. Obama has proved legally that he was born in Hawaii because the birth certificate that he showed and posted, and on which the facts were confirmed twice, is the official birth certificate of Hawaii. In addition, it is the only one that Obama has because Hawaii does not send out the original any more.
Sure, the original is in the file, but Hawaii does not send it out. That is Hawaii’s choice, not Obama’s. One way to solve it would be to make Hawaii change its mind and start sending out copies of the original birth certificates again. There is draft legislation to do this in Hawaii, and when i pointed it out to birthers on another site, the response was that the only reason that there was such a move was that “Obama has by now created a perfect forgery, which he has slipped into the file.”
In other words, the prediction of the Wall Street Journal was accurate. When birthers were offered the opportunity to support legislation that would show the original birth certificate, they refused to believe that what was in the file was indeed the original.
But fortunately, the OFFICIAL birth certificate, the Certification of Live Birth, proves that Obama was born in Hawaii, and it has been confirmed, and there is even a witness who recalls being told of Obama’s birth at the time (http://www.buffalonews.com/494/story/554495.html).

All he has to do is present the long form of his BC and there would be no lawsuits challenging his native born status. I can get a paper stating I was born in Ohio, but more importantly, I can also get a copy of the long form of my original. Perhaps other people born since that time cannot do that, but I can. I dare say that the President could also.
As far as this issue having been decided in a court of law, that may be true, but until the people of this nation feel that this issue is proven to their satisfaction, it’s not a done deal.
I’ve noticed that you spend considerable time promoting Obama’s agenda and defending his position on the birth certificate. I’m compiling a table (Internet wide) with the days and times that you post and it’s becoming evident that you have a lot of time on your hands.
