If you will look in most encyclopedia's one of the first things mentioned about a president is where that president was born. It is usually a matter of public record and the only other president I know of that did not know where he was born was Andred Jackson. At his home in Tennessee, The Hermitage, they are still giving out wrong information about that. The person that was there at his birth and delivered him says he was born in North Carolina. He thought he was born in South Carolina because he moved there shortly after his birth and that was the only home he knew. As far as being a natural born citizen, whether he was born in NC or SC was not important. Obama's situation is a little different.

Make fun all you want to, but I expect this problem to follow him until he gives the proof people are asking for. If he has the proof, it would really be to his advantage to produce it. I don't think he is going to always be as popular as he started out and people will turn on him fast.

I think it was Mark Twain who said, "No amount evidence will ever change a belief."

I looked at my oldest son's birth certificate from Missouri, in 2001, to compare it to Obama's. And again, this is what I received after I followed the state's instructions to get a copy of the birth certificate. (I didn't get to choose what type of birth certificate.) So the document is entitled "Birth Certification." Here's the info it has:

Date filed; State file number;

Child name; Sex; Date of Birth; County of Birth

Mother Maiden name; Mother age; Mother state of birth

Father name; Father age; Father state of birth

At the bottom: "This is a true certification of the name and birth facts recorded in this office."

Date issued.

With this, I've gotten my son into school and gotten him a passport. It never once occurred to me that there would be any question that he was born in the United States based on the information on the certificate, though of course in my case both parents were born in the US.

My Florida birth certificate, which I requested a few years ago to get a passport to replace the one I lost, has even less information. Nothing about the hospital where I was born, attending doctor, etc.

The Massachusetts birth certificate I requested for my second son, on the other hand, is basically a photocopy of the original form filled out at the hospital, with information about place of birth, attendant, etc.

So people's personal stories about how "their" birth certificate has certain information on it isn't particularly illuminating. Every state is different. I figure, if it's good enough for the State Department, it's good enough for any reasonable purpose.

^^^True. The BC my DH sent for from the state of Nebraska had everything the long forms have on them. (I have seen long forms in the past b/c I have worked in public health.) It even said a "prohylactic" was placed in his eyes! DH thought that was kind of wierd; I had to explain it to him (and he is a PhD physicist)!

When Barack Hussein Obama places his hand on the Bible today to take the oath of office as 44th president of the United States, Barbara Nelson of Kenmore will undoubtedly think back to the day he was born. It was Aug. 4, 1961, at Kapi’olani Medical Center for Women & Children in Honolulu.
“I may be the only person left who specifically remembers his birth. His parents are gone, his grandmother is gone, the obstetrician who delivered him is gone,†said Nelson, referring to Dr. Rodney T. West, who died in February at the age of 98.

There you have it. The hospital, the doctor, a living witness.

Why not just have the press spend as much time and energy on the O as it has on Palin and the Plumber. Maybe get some local government slackers to violate computer use regulations, too.

Please don't confuse them with facts and witnesses.

Good grief, the Clintons and all Obama's Dem opponenets plus the Republicans did just that. If they didn't turn up anything, I don't think it's there!
