So truman, you are posting that a bloggers information is what you use as fact? Isn't that why you come here to say no one knows anything because their information cannot be verified and is not valid?

Maybe ask taxasdarlin where they got the information. Then research it and get back to us. Then we might think you put a little thought into what you post here.

All I did was post the fact that the Texasdarlin Blog stated that the information for the Obama birth announcement in the Hawaii newspapers came directly from the Vital Statistics Office as reported by local hospitals, according to the researcher who found this information.

However, since it is apparent that he do not trust the information posted in the TD Blog, I will post another source that states that in 1961 the birth announcements in the Hawaii newspapers came directly from the Vital Statistics Office.

Here is what the Hawaii Advertiser wrote regarding the Birth Announcement Issue on 11/9/2008.

She said someone posted the address on the Internet. That July posting contained a photocopy of what is most likely the first mention of Barack Obama ever published — a tiny, one-line birth notice in the Sunday, Aug. 13, 1961, edition of The Honolulu Advertiser:

"Mr. and Mrs. Barack H. Obama, 6085 Kalanianaole Highway, son, Aug. 4." The exact same notice appeared the following day in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin. The numerous birth announcements above and below the Obama listing also were identical in both papers, which were unaffiliated, competing publications.

Advertiser columnist and former Star-Bulletin managing editor Dave Shapiro was not at either paper in 1961, but he remembers how the birth notices process worked years later when both papers were jointly operated by the Hawaii Newspaper Agency — which no longer exists.

"Those were listings that came over from the state Department of Health," he said. "They would send the same thing to both papers."
