The Hawaiian records dept . places the birth announcements in local papers for anyone who registers a child in Hawaii. It has never been contested that obama’s parents registered obama’s birth in Hawaii. Hawaiian law did not require birth in Hawaii in 1961 to be registered there. If obama was born in Hawaii he would be able to release a CERTIFIED CERTIFICATE OF BIRTH showing hospital and doctor information. Of course Article 2 of the Constitution requires both parents to be U.S. citizens at birth. Therefore even with a Certified Certificate obama would not be eligible to be President.
Just a correction. The birth announcements did not come from the HDOH in 1961. That procedure didn’t begin until 1976.
It is not true that the HI records dept placed the birth announcements in the paper. That has been claimed to be true, but in August 1961 the two newspapers had different numbers of births announced even on the same days, and the total of births announced in the papers was less than the total actual births.
