Ok - I don't have proof one way or another
The truth comes out!!!!!!!!!!!
- I am open to either position on where obama was born - do some research on his Hawaii "birth certificate" and on a "certificate of live
birth" and you MAY understand the controversy.
I HAVE researched this, and I am completely, 100% satisfied that Obama is exactly who he says he is. I have provided links on this and another
thread. Please, read them yourself, because the ones I've seen all agree he's legit.
Controversy I might add that could be quelled by obama releasing hi "certificate of live birth".
He did. I linked to it above. Where's yours?
And no, regardless of what you have seen or heard the certificate of live birth has not been seen - it was sealed by obama. Research that
one.
It wasn't sealed by Obama, it was sealed by Hawaii's Governor--and that's because none of the people asking for it, such as the right-wing blog
trolls who started this farce of a theory, have a legal right to it. Neither they, nor you, are relatives, the registrant himself, or anyone else
with a legal claim to demand a copy of the original BC.
Edited to add:
(Hawaii State Public Health Director Dr. Chiyome) Fukino, however, repeated the Health Department's position that state law prohibits her or any
other officials from actually releasing the birth certificate, which Obama's campaign says shows he was born in Honolulu on Aug. 4, 1961.
"State law (Hawai'i Revised Statutes ยค338-18) prohibits the release of a certified birth certificate to persons who do not have a tangible interest
in the vital record. ... No state official, including Gov. Linda Lingle, has ever instructed that this vital record be handled in a manner different
from any other vital record in the possession of the State of Hawai'i."

Now this is important:
I'm sure YOU wouldn't want just "anybody" to be able to access YOUR birth certificate without your authorization. Sure, many employers want this,
but YOU still have to provide that. They can't just go to your state and demand it.
Any release of Obama's BC would, by law,
have to come from Obama himself. Which, turns out, he
did. Come to Chicago; it's in his
headquarters. But, you refuse to believe that's genuine, regardless of a line of people happy to authenticate it.
So. The right-wing blogger/"media reps" can't get it for themselves directly from Hawaii (quite correctly I must say--I wouldn't want anyone
looking at MINE without my knowledge and authorization either, regardless of whether there's anything to "hide") and they won't accept anything
Obama provides himself as the truth. Where does that leave us?
It leaves decent people who want to move this country forward stuck with the albatross of stupidity and divisiveness, all because you can't believe
the man is who he says he is and still have made it so far on his own merits.
It's a Catch-22 and that's exactly what your puppet masters want.
BUT seeing as how he won't allow this to be seen, and the fact that he has family members in Kenya and the Kenyan Ambassador saying he was in
fact born in Kenya leaves more room for doubt. This isn't about bush its about what obama is hiding-
But it IS about Bush. It's about EVERY President. You're holding Obama to a certain standard; a standard that he essentially cannot meet because
no amount of proof will be enough for you.
Don't fret - your radical socialist hero will be president I'm sure. But as we have seen in the past, that does not make him an honest or
honorable person.
What, exactly, do you consider "honest and honorable"? I see in Obama a man who has accomplished incredible things in the face of adversity, a
family man, a man with confidence in himself and in the truth of his message. If all you can see is some kind of monster just waiting for his chance
to strike you've got some serious mental health issues and should see a therapist.
Also - fact based on wikipedia is a laugh.
So is "fact" based on rumor and innuendo posted on Web sites run by right-wing fascist bloggers paid for part and parcel by the GOP. But, here we
are, and frankly that's all you've got.
