On Monday night's edition of "Hardball," host Chris Matthews talked about putting the birth certificate controversy surrounding President Obama to rest.
"Why has the president himself not demanded they put out the original documents?" Matthews wonders.
"If it exists, why not put it out?" Chris Matthews asks.
I don’t understand why the Governor doesn’t just say ’snap it up . . . send me a copy right now.’ And why doesn’t the President just say ’send me a copy right now.’ Why doesn’t Gibbs and Axelrod say ‘let’s just get this crappy story dead.’
00:05:44 >> That copy you've got, the copy that the president has provided on the web is all you need if you're a hawaiian to get a passport.
00:05:56 Everybody accepts that birth certificate as proof of his citizenship except for the birthers.
00:06:03 >> So, this is the same document that would be adequate if you wanted to join the cia.
00:06:10 >> Absolutely.

Did he finally understand there is a difference between a long form with all the information on it and a COLB?

The question is, why is Matthews of all people at this time bringing this up?

Birth certificates (Certificates of Live Birth and Certifications of Live Birth) and Certificates of Hawaiian Birth are the primary documents used to determine native Hawaiian qualification.

people will still not be convinced nor will they be satisfied if he does release his birth certificate.

Thank you for your myopic viewpoint while actually supporting those who are indeed waiting for the release of Hussein's true birth certificate.
A COLB from Hawaii is no more viable than a COLB from a box of cracker jacks. I have my BC and show it as needed without spending millions to hide it.
I have to show mine to get a driver's license but apparently it isn't needed to become POTUS? Give me a break.

My bet is that Obama has his actual Hawaiian birth certificate in some briefcase somewhere, and is waiting until next election to make all the "birthers" look stupid when he pulls it out at some campaign stop.
Some of us just don't understand why the Administration's position on this issue is essentially the equivalent of chopping wood to fuel the fire.
