If Mother Obama did not go to the U.S. Embassy to apply for a birth certificate, how is it that she got Baby Obama into the U.S. without documentation. I for example, was born overseas and my mama had to have documentation to get me into the U.S.

Good question. If you have been following these threads from the beginning you would know babies did not need passports in the early 60's since they traveled on their mother's passport. However, filing an FOIA with the State Department is a good idea...cover all the bases.

I needed that BC from the U.S. Embassy to enroll in school, play Little League, set my S.S. Card, get my U.S. Passport, my DL enroll in College etc.

How do you propose Obama did all the above things without a B.C?

And you would know, if you followed these Obama citizen status threads, that Hawaii issued COLBs and birth certificates to foreign born babies up to 1972.

Oh, and you do not need a birth certificate to get a passport. The State Department accepts "Secondary evidence of U.S. Citizenship" that makes it a lot easier to game the system.

So "proving your age" to play little league baseball would have been easy for Obama because the State of Hawaii once had flimsy rules in place.

I was born overseas just after Obama and until I was around five, I travelled on my mother's U.S. Passport. However, inside my mother's passport was a picture of me as well as a copy of my BC from the U.S. State Department. So, again, how do you propose Obama entered the U.S. without any documentation?

That would be correct, except for the fact that the Hawaii Department of Health website states something quite different.

The Certificate of Hawaiian Birth program was established in 1911, during the territorial era, to register a person born in Hawaii who was one year old or older and whose birth had not been previously registered in Hawaii. The Certificate of Hawaiian Birth Program was terminated in 1972, during the statehood era.

Now, could you please link an official source that states that a foreign born person could be granted a birth certificate in Hawaii?
