From Twitter:
President Obama’s long-form birth certificate is being released, the White House announced today.
They just showed it on MSNBC. Looks real and nothing new on it that I could see.
The White House released President Obama's original birth certificate Wednesday. The surprise release follows recent and sustained remarks by businessman Donald Trump, among others, that raised doubts as to whether the president was born in the United States.
In an interview with CNN's Anderson Cooper Monday, Trump repeated his doubts and said he had been told the certificate was "missing."
A new CNN investigation revealed earlier this week what most analysts have been saying since the "birther" controversy erupted during the 2008 presidential campaign: Obama was born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961. While the president has made light of the controversy, the question remained political red meat for some of his critics. A recent CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll showed that nearly 75% of Americans believe Obama was definitely or probably born in the United States. More than four in 10 Republicans, however, believe he probably or definitely was not born in America.
The U.S. Constitution says only "natural born" citizens can become president - a vague clause that some members of the birther movement contend disqualifies Obama because, they insist, he was born outside the United States. Skeptics contend, among other things, that Obama was born in his father's home country of Kenya.
If he had it all along, why release it only NOW?
Fishy!!
Looks like a certificate of birth, to me. My birth certificate lists the Dr’s name, hospital, weight, length, etc.
It IS the Certificate of Live Birth. The same document released previously.
As Yogi Berra said ‘its deja vu all over again.’
Trump (or Corsi) must have really, really found something GOOD!!!
The signatures on the bottom have white around them like they were erased.

Yeah , I’ve gotten way too many tweets about it already.
Isn’t this the same COLB info we’ve seen before? Looks like it is bound in a ledger of some sort. What’s the deal with the pdf background matching the body of the cert? I thought these certs were supposed to be stamped with a raised seal and tri-folded for mailing. What is the actual origin of this pdf? I’m not pointing this stuff out to be abrasive - I just don’t see where this answers much. Guess I’ll wait for his holiness’s press conference to see why now?
that is the meme.
nobody is going to call him out for released only another same old copy of the colb.
