That is certainly not the case.
If you are bright enough to post on the USMB, then you certainly know that a Certification of Live Birth was provided...
Which is what Hawaii law demands to be provided as a "birth certificate." Hawaii is not alone in this. Many "birth certificates" provided by many states are "Certificates of Live Birth." It's a tomato/tomahto issue and nothing more.
Is it possible that the President was born outside of Hawaii, and that his mom simply walked into the Department of Health and requested the Certification of Live Birth? Yes.
[§338-17.8] Certificates for children born out of State. (a) Upon application of an adult or the legal parents of a minor child, the director of health shall issue a birth certificate for such adult or minor, provided that proof has been submitted to the director of health that the legal parents of such individual while living without the Territory or State of Hawaii had declared the Territory or State of Hawaii as their legal residence for at least one year immediately preceding the birth or adoption of such child.
(b) Proof of legal residency shall be submitted to the director of health in any manner that the director shall deem appropriate. The director of health may also adopt any rules pursuant to chapter 91 that he or she may deem necessary or proper to prevent fraudulent applications for birth certificates and to require any further information or proof of events necessary for completion of a birth certificate.
The problem here is that nothing in this statute provides for the state to declare a birth that happened outside of Hawaii to have occurred inside Hawaii. Obama's BC states that he was born in Honolulu. Politicalchik, while we obviously are coming from two different opinions on this matter, I appreciate that you present reasonable points to your arguments, instead of alot of the silliness that is often seen otherwise from others. So I have to ask you, what do you make of the fact that the Republican appointed Director of Health of Hawaii at the time of the campaign went on public record to verify that HI state records confirm Obama's birthplace as being Hawaii, at the request of the then Republican Gov. of Hawaii who was campaigning in favor of McCain?
So, just to be clear....you've revised your position....correctly....to indicate that both a COLB and a Birth Certificate exist?
Is that correct?
Of course he doesn't. Most Americans believe his birth certificate is genuine. The various Birther theories sound wacko to most Americans.But the President doesn't want this issue to end. So he isn't going to produce anything.
Because as long as he has idiots arguing about this, they aren't arguing about his rotten policies.

What? They are one in the same. A "Certificate of Live Birth" is a birth certificate. This is established in Hawaiian state law.
Did You Know That Obama Was Originally Disqualified By Hawaii Ballot?
What!?! Evidence!!!
What are you, some kind of clown???
Either a) you are correct and the COLB and Long Form Birth Certificate are one and the same, or
b) The former director of Hawaii's Department of Health is correct and they are two different species...

Why do you have to misrepresent what I've said? I expect that kind of thing from idiot's like bigreb, but I expect you to be better than that. A Certificate of Live Birth is a birth certificate. A long form is also a birth certificate, just a different kind. Take my birth certificate as an example.

It's not a long form. It doesn't mention the hospital in which I was born, nor even the town. To this day, I don't even know in what town I was born. But it is still a birth certificate.
You should read more carefully, Kiwi,...
But didnÂ’t Hawai'i's health director swear that she has personally seen Obama's birth certificate in the Health Department's archives in your CNN link?
No. HereÂ’s what she said:
“I, Dr. Chiyome Fukino, director of the Hawai'i State Department of Health, have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawai'i State Department of Health verifying Barrack Hussein Obama was born in Hawai'i and is a natural-born American citizen. I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago...." Honolulu Paper Lies
“that's techie-speak for hanging over the database administrator's shoulder while she queried the "Births" data mart.”
Did you see the words "Birth Certificate" in there?
Or, does it depend on what the meaning of the word "is" is?
This is such a blast, watching you guys play dumb...but if it was a Repub, bet you'd be a lot sharper, huh?
Bachmann must hate the constitution. Under the constitution, the only entity that has the power to review Obama's legal qualifications for office is the electoral college who elected him. They've already done that and gave him the green light.
