Why did he issue an executive order his first day in office sealing all his records, college, birth, everything!
Excuse me but Obama didn't do that - and he can't. No POTUS could.

That World NUT Daily article that started this EO nonsense was complete bull. An EO only pertains to the Executive Branch of the government and how its administered / regulated(1). That EO was only for his Presidential papers, nothing else.

And as I recall Dubya issued a similar EO 'protecting' certain Clinton Admin documents, and that didn't sit well for those who wanted Bush 'to get' Clinton.

(1) Unless further acted upon by Congress.

I appreciate your response and would like to see the exact EO Obama signed! As to clear up this issue. Where do you find it online, or is there even access to it?

For goodness sakes, Obama won't let us see his birth certificate why would he let anyone see this? After he did say something to the effect he wanted to keep his administration open with full disclosure...That's worked out GREAT for him so far!

Presidential records includes:

(6) personnel and medical files and similar files the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.

You can look it up.
