Dang, comments are moving too fast for me. Went offline for about 2 hours, trying to catch up!
The layers of the PDF when opened in Illustrator is proof the birth certificate was altered. So is the white halo around all text and lines. So are the entries of information where a handwritten ‘9’ is entered. I’ll bet the birth certificate was originally signed in PEN as “Ann Dunham” (single mom).. “unham Obama” was overwritten with a bolder MARKER, LATER, and also Barack Sr. added LATER by the forger. Bye, bye, Alex Okrent.
