and what do you base your claim there is nothing wrong with Obama's citizenship? that possibly forged Birth certificate on factcheck.org?
They receive their only funding from the Annenberg Foundation, the Same foundation that Obama served on the board of directors. they are clearly not unbiased even though they say they are.
Letters of Verification
Letters of verification may be issued in lieu of certified copies (HRS §338-14.3). This document verifies the existence of a birth/death/marriage/divorce certificate on file with the Department of Health and any other information that the applicant provides to be verified relating to the vital event. (For example, that a certain named individual was born on a certain date at a certain place.) The verification process will not, however, disclose information about the vital event contained within the certificate that is unknown to and not provided by the applicant in the request.
Letters of verification are requested in similar fashion and using the same request forms as for certified copies.
The fee for a letter of verification is $5 per letter.
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
Like all federal agencies, the Department of Justice (DOJ) generally is required under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to disclose records requested in writing by any person. However, agencies may withhold information pursuant to nine exemptions and three exclusions contained in the statute. The FOIA applies only to federal agencies and does not create a right of access to records held by Congress, the courts, or by state or local government agencies. Each state has its own public access laws that should be consulted for access to state and local records.
Each federal agency is responsible for meeting its FOIA responsibilities for its own records. A list of Principal FOIA Contacts At Federal Agencies is available from this site. Likewise, each Department of Justice component is responsible for processing FOIA requests for the records that it maintains. Consult the DOJ FOIA Reference Guide and the List of Individual DOJ Components and FOIA Contacts if you plan to make a FOIA request to the Department of Justice. Before making a FOIA request, you should first browse About DOJ, Press Room, Publications & Documents, and Reading Rooms, which contain information already available to the public. If you are not familiar with this Web site, please refer to How to Use This Home Page for more specific guidance.

Yes, today, the laws state that a child is a US citizen even if born overseas, as long as one parent is a US citizen.
Were the rules the same in 1961? Do you know?

Hawaii use to allow people to do what is called late registraion. you could report a birth to the state without paperwork from the Dr. or hospital.

I can't believe the amount of conspiracy nonsense that's been spouted on this thread. Deny ignorance guys. Here is the proof Obama was born in the USA :
Born in the U.S.A.
That doesn't count because FactCheck is funded by the Annenberg Foundation and it isn't his vault copy, even though that copy would hold up in court it isn't enough!

So that birth certificate is enough for the courts but not for you, is that it? Please.
The article says, "We conclude that it meets all of the requirements from the State Department for proving U.S. citizenship." You've shown no evidence to the contrary.
Face facts, Satan Barack is eligible to become President, so if Americans elect him it will be their own damn fault for what will happen in the future with the nukes, and no one else's.

Wonderfull. now US citizens have no standing to question a public servants qualifications for office. This judge needs to be impeached and disbarred. Another example of the rights of ordinary folks to redress their government reduced to nothing!
