If he was born in Hawaii, like he says, why would showing his BC be damaging or incriminating?

I don’t really expect him to anyway, but I do expect the nation to demand it and the courts to force him to show it. The constitution requires a president to be a natural born citizen and Obama is hiding the best evidence for it.


On June 12, 2008 Obama posted to the World Wide Web the only proof of birth that he will probably ever need to show, his Certificate of Live Birth with the official seal of the state of Hawaii and the State Registrar’s signature affixed. That document says that he was born on Friday, August 4, 1961 at 7:24 P.M. in the city of Honolulu in the state of Hawaii. His birth was registered with the state of Hawaii on Tuesday, August 8, 1961.

The Director of the State of Hawaii’s Health Department has verified the information contained on that Certificate of Live Birth and she has declared Obama to be a “natural born citizen.”
The Constitution requires birth in the US and not to a foreign diplomat parent and being 35 years of age, ONLY. The Constitution does not ask what hospital you were born in or who was your father.

The Attorney General of Hawaii (a Republican named Mark Bennett) has the power under Hawaii statutes to seek a subpoena for Obama’s original birth records but in the year and a half that this controversy has been in the public, Bennett has not chosen to seek such a subpoena.
No one who opposes Obama would trust a document released by him anyway. Its best that the courts do it, if that is their legal will.
Thus far all attempts to secure release of Obama’s birth records through the courts and through the Supreme Court have failed. The Supreme Court has had five opportunities to entertain cases on Obama’s eligibility and it only takes four Justices to agree to hear a case before the full court (the “rule of four). That means that the conservative justices: Scalia, Thomas, Alito and Roberts have not agreed to take on a case.

You could not be more completely incorrect in just about everything you’ve said.

Obama posted his CertificatION of Live Birth (COLB, AKA short form), not his CertificATE of Live Birth (Long form BC). See the difference? So no, he did not post his Certificate of Live Birth.

The constitution requires a person to be a natural born citizen. It does not require “birth in the US” as you claim. A person can be born outside the US to two citizen parents and be natural born.

Of course the constitution doesn’t ask a person to show what hospital they were born in, the constitution does not require a person to show their BC either. It does, however, require a person to be a natural born citizen and the best evidence of that today, is a long form birth certificate that contains verifiable details such as the hospital’s name and attending physician’s name.

All court cases so far have been dropped on technical issues and have never been debated on the merits of the case.

You are wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong on everything in your ignorant statement. Learn something before you attempt to comment with any kind of legitimacy.
