Daily Kos has obtained a copy of Obama's "certification of live birth."
All of the information is what we have been told before - name, birth date, etc.. His mother's race is listed as "Caucasian," his father as "African." No middle name of Muhammad, no first name of "Barry," no last name of "Dunham." He's listed as "Barack Hussein Obama II," not "Jr."
(Interestingly, in the lower right hand corner is the backwards reflection of a stamp, "June 6 or G, 2007". Did someone request or process this record about a year ago?)
Site creator Markos Moulitsas mentions in the comments the campaign released it to him.
(Also, for astrologers, the time of birth was 7:24 p.m.)
Next time you get one of those e-mails suggesting Obama has a different "real name," send people to this post or that document.
UPDATE: I'm getting some, "Jim, this looks modern," e-mail messages. As Ed notes,
When someone requests a validated copy of their birth certificate, they don’t get a photocopy of the original. They get a fresh certificate with a seal showing that it came from the official registrar, in most states. They keep the info in a computer and produced validated copies on request.
This is a validated copy of the birth certificate, with which Obama could get a passport, register to vote, etc etc. It’s perfectly acceptable.
Obama himself probably has a dog-eared yellowing copy in a desk drawer somewhere; this document is what he or someone authorized by him was given by the state out of its records. Barring some vast conspiracy within the Hawaii State Department of Health, there is no reason to think his birth certificate would have any different data.
I think there is a difference between the two documents. And this one has no seal that I can tell.
That is NOT a 1961 document.
I want the original or copy of the original.
DAILY KOS is now an official campaign outlet.
His mother’s first name is Stanley????
Oh, Soros already slipped an admended birth certificate in a long time ago. They’re slick enough to cover all the angles.
And you didn’t make any humorous alterations first Pissant?
You’re slippin’ man! LOL
Well hopefully that clears up these internet rumors. Let’s go after him on the radical liberal ideology he will bring to the White House, rather than question whether he can run for Pres.
Somebody had questioned McCain’s eligibility, because he was born in the Panama Canal Zone. That too was a non-starter relating to eligibility for president.
Last year, I had to order birth certificates from Texas for two of my children. They were brand-new documents, not copies of early-90’s documents.
yes his mothers real first name was Stanley.
Another fine mess she's gotten us into.
This is clearly a modern print out, not the origional document. They didn’t have LASER printers in 1961.. (check the lower left corner).
This is what anyone gets if they call up and ask for a certified birth certificate for themselves anymore. I have an old photocopy of my original birth certificate that I requested years ago when I needed it.. and I have one from the same county a few years ago I needed when that one was no longer valid due to changes in the law since 9/11. The newer “official” copy looks like this, just a computer print out.. the old one is a xerox of my origional birth cert.
Yeah, me too...I had to get an ORIGINAL Birth Certificate for my daughter with an actual Notary stamp..not computerized...
BS!@@

Yes, where’s the seal?
I work in insurance and 20 years ago, Hawaii was still doing motor vehicle reports by photocopying them and sending them - took a month to get when all other states were electronically delivered.
There is no way that is an original document, as you said.
So this is only just a printout of what the computer has been programmed to have in some database?
Also, I got a copy of my birth certificate from California about 15 years ago - photocopy.
No seal. I’d bet $100 that this one is a blank that some OBAMA RAT who works in HI took and forged!
