I would be interesting though to see him release the original and find that it is different from the one that they admitted to posting on the Internet, FRAUD.

I don't believe any court will hear any eleigibility case on the merits until and unless Obama runs for re-election. At that time, I'm sure some candidate on the ballot (probably not the Republican) will bring a proper election-law challenge to Obama's eligibility.

When that happens, my prediction is that Obama will present an official Hawaiian short-form COLB-- like the one he posted on the internet, but with an official raised seal from Hawaii. At that point, he will claim that he has no obligation to produce a long form, because the short form is valid under Hawaiian law and the Constitution therefore requires every other state to give it "Full Faith and Credit." That will be an interesting court fight.

Some patriotic resident ALIEN should run for president! Then the resident alien should claim that if Obama doesn't have to prove he is a natural born citizen, then neither should he!!!

Hey! Maybe Orly could run? She's a citizen but definitely not a natural born citizen. Hey! That would be quite a show.
