Oh, please! Do you think we need to wait for the original 50-year-old paper document to pass judgment upon this copy:

Nothing will resolve the controversy until Obama’s original, 50-year-old paper document is made available for examination. A scan is useless.
That wouldn't resolve it either.
Nothing will resolve this for Birthers unless it contains the information they want it to contain.
If live HD video were taken of the long form bound in a book in the Hawaiian archives, and the information matched what is on the long form facsimile released in April, then Birthers will either invoke conspiracy or just segue right on to their next talking point about how an NBC needs two citizen parents anyway.
Although a file presented as a scan of an original document can never prove the existence of an authentic original, the detection of anomalies in a computer file presented as a "scan" of an old document can demonstrate that said file is not representative of an old original. Just as Buckhead demonstrated that the "Texas Air National Guard Memos" were not copies of actual old typewritten documents.
Internal consistency of such a "scan file" is not sufficient proof of the existence and validity of an old original - but it isnecessary.And by all credible analysis, the "scan" file fails even that test.
