New Dr. Chiyome Fukino interview.
The first is that the original so-called “long form” birth certificate described by Hawaiian officials as a “record of live birth” absolutely exists, located in a bound volume in a file cabinet on the first floor of the state Department of Health. Fukimo said she has personally inspected it twice. The first time was in late October 2008, during the closing days of the presidential campaign, when the communications director for the state’s then Republican governor, Linda Lingle (who appointed Fukino) asked if she could make a public statement in response to claims then circulating on the Internet that Obama was actually born in Kenya.
Before she would do so, Fukino said, she wanted to inspect the files and did so, taking with her the state official in charge of vital records. She found the original birth record, properly numbered, half typed and half handwritten, and signed by the doctor who delivered Obama, located in the files. She then put out a public statement asserting to the document’s validity. She later put out another public statement in July 2009 after reviewing the original birth record a second time.

Health Director Dr. Chiyome Fukino said she hoped to end lingering rumors about Obama’s birthplace.
“I ... have seen the original vital records maintained on file by the Hawaii State Department of Health verifying Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii and is a natural-born American citizen,” she said in a brief statement. “I have nothing further to add to this statement or my original statement issued in October 2008 over eight months ago.”

As per #34, HI law forbids giving out this document.
So she has seen it but nobody else can see it. Nice way to keep the conspiracy alive, Dr C!
If the Gov REALLY wants to fix things, change the law and allow it to be released.
