I’m going to assume you have never been in a hospital when a birth certificate was filled out by the newborn’s mother. She can provide whatever information she wants, true or not, and it goes into the record.
Thus, Stanley Ann or Madelyn Dunham could have said BHO, Sr. or Frank Marshall Davis or Joe Sixpack was the father and that’s what the record would show. Similarly, an unwed mother can report that she is married. The mother/grandmother’s input is never questioned.
The information the mother/grandmother provides is passed to the Dept of Health (and/or Vital Statistics) and thus to any media outlet that reports births. Thus, the information reported IS from family.

I’m going to assume that you have never been in a Court of Law when a birth certificate was being introduced into evidence. Under the federal rules of evidence, a state certified copy of a birth record is a self-authenticating document. What it says on the document is presumed to be valid in the absence of evidence to the contrary.
For example, President Dwight David Eisenhower was a home birth in Denisen, Texas and no birth certificate was issued for him until 62 years after his birth. The verification was provided by his brother signing a notarized statement.
The only proof of birth for several of our presidents is an entry in a family bible.

Okay, continuing on that premise then the Dunhams cannot be trusted at all because right from the outset they blatantly lied in providing the address of the “father”. Why provide a false address unless they didn’t even know where the guy lived?
Who knows, maybe Barack Obama Sr. didn’t even know that the Dunhams listed him as the father (set-up by a family of grifters?)
