No, you’re being emotional. One can tell by your stubborn refusal to use anything approaching logic. How can it be stamped prior to this? Easy, a stamp is made and it’s stamped on the page. If you can’t think of a way that this could EVER happen, maybe you’re not qualified to be commenting on this issue.
It could appear quite easily. We don’t know what they were putting on internal documents in the interim 10 months between the independence and formal declaration of a Republic.
It’s close to definite that they would NOT want to use documents from prior to their independence. They would have wanted to be rid of any of the British colony stuff. But would they have wanted to go to the expense of printing new documents that they would only be using in the 10 months before declaring as a republic, when they KNEW that the change was coming? Letterhead wasn’t printed on a deskjet in the other room back then. It had to be designed by a designer and printed by a printer. That was a costly undertaking.
Frankly, the whole ‘Republic’ thing is childish. Could it be a clue that the document might not be real? Possibly. But I think it’s more likely to be correct, since a forger who went to the trouble that this one did would have been unlikely to screw up such a simple thing to research. There are also logical and plausible reasons that they might have been using that letterhead in the interim 10 months.
But hey, maybe the authenticator will find the document is phony and then you can proudly say that you were right to jump to conclusions instead of withholding judgment until the facts came in.
Of course, all this is just wasted keystrokes talking to a guy who was one of the heads of the Romney slime machine anyway. So, carry on repeating your emotional responses.
I never supported Romney.
