Gov. Neil Abercrombie suggested in an interview published today that a long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate for Barack Obama may not exist within the vital records maintained by the Hawaii Department of Health.
Abercrombie told the Honolulu Star Advertiser he was searching within the Hawaii Department of Health to find definitive vital records that would prove Obama was born in Hawaii, because the continuing eligibility controversy could hurt the president's chances of re-election
If he is unable to produce the record, this will be a campaign issue. A comical issue, but an issue none the less

I don't think someone gaining the highest office in the land when they don't meet the qualifications is comical in the least. It is a crime. It is treason.
They can't put it to bed because they can't and that leaves them in a bind.

After all of the bluster that Abercrombie made over suggesting that he would be able to put this issue to rest, it is now coming out that he is unable to find the document.
Q: You stirred up quite a controversy with your comments regarding birthers and your plans to release more information regarding President Barack Obama's birth certificate. How is that coming?
A: I got a letter from someone the other day who was genuinely concerned about it; it is not all just political agenda. They were talking on Olelo last night about this; it has a political implication for 2012 that we simply cannot have.
(Abercrombie said there is a recording of the birth in the State Archives and he wants to use that.)
It was actually written I am told, this is what our investigation is showing, it actually exists in the archives, written down ...
...What I can do, and all I have ever said, is that I am going to see to it as governor that I can verify to anyone who is honest about it that this is the case.

I don't think it should be that hard to find your own birth certificate, or even someone else.
