It would have helped gain coverage from at least the conservative media if there had been congressional hearings and if the Maricopa County Cold Case Posse/Sheriff Arpaio had been able to convince the Maricopa County District Attorney to convene a grand jury investigation.
District Attorney Montgomery publicly stated that he was willing to review any and all evidence gathered by the Cold Case Posse’ however to date they haven’t turned anything over to him.
Back in 2013, Orly Taitz tried to get the Forensic Examiner Reed Hayes’ report on forgery from the Cold Case Posse and the District Attorney:

“Maricopa County Arizona District Attorney responded to the request for records. They stated that they did not receive any records from Sheriff Arpaio, no affidavit or any other documentation from Forensic Document Expert Reed Hayes
On August 29, 2013 Attorney Orly Taitz submitted to William Montgomery, District Attorney of Maricopa County Arizona, a request for records.
Sheriff of Maricopa County, Joe Arpaio, and Dircetor of Cold Case Posse, Mike Zullo, claimed that they have an affidavit of Reed Hayes, Forensic Document expert from Hawaii, who found that Obamas birth certificate is a 100% forgery. Taitz submitted an Arizona state request for records, seeking any and all records submitted by Sheriff Arpaio and specifically requesting to know, whether the District Attorneys office received an affidavit or declaration, or any other statement from forensic Document expert Reed Hayes in regards to Barack Obamas birth certificate.
Today, on 09.12.2013 Debbie MacKenzie from public records department responded to Attorney Orly Taitz and stated that there are no such records in the District Attorneys office.
This is a matter of National Security. We might be at the brink of another war, this time with Syria, which can spill into a large international military confrontation, as U.S., Russian, Chinese and Iranian ships are gathering in a small radius area in the Mediterranean with their missile launches on high alert readiness. Now, more than ever we need to know, who this man is, who is sitting in the White House, why he is using a stolen Social Security number and fabricated IDs, where is his allegiance and what are his long term goals.
Two years ago Arizona Tea Party leader Brian Riley submitted to Sheriff Arpaio a complaint from 250 citizens of Arizona relating to all the evidence collected by attorney Taitz and other attorneys and investigators on Obamas use of fabricated IDs. For two years Arpaio and Director of Cold Case Posse Mike Zullo held fundraisers and meetings in order to raise money for the investigation. Mike Zullo and Jerome Corsi were selling books and in the beginning of this year Zullo appeared at fundraisers and on the radio stating that he has a 100% evidence of Obamas birth certificate being a forgery, he stated that he possess an affidavit from a forensic Document expert from Hawaii, Reed Hayes proving that Obamas birth certificate is a 100% forgery. As a Sheriff, Joseph Arpaio had a duty to submit this evidence to the District Attorney of Maricopa County for criminal investigation. Specifically he had a duty to submit the affidavit of Reed Hayes. According to the District Attorneys office they do not have any such records. The public is encouraged to contact Sheriff Joseph Arpaio and demand that he submit all the evidence to the District Attorney, specifically the affidavit of the forensic document expert for criminal investigation.
Request for records submitted by Attorney Taitz is attached below. More information is available on OrlyTaitzESQ.com. Next hearing on one of the cases related to Obamas use of fabricated IDs is scheduled on October 23, 2013 9am in the Fourth District Court of Appeal, 601 Santa Ana Blvd, Santa Ana CA. Members of the public are asked to come to court and support Attorney Orly Taitz.”
Nobody really gives my argument much credibility, but I still think it best fits the available facts.
Yes, Obama's "birth certificate" is a legal document produced and supported by the state of Hawaii, and no, it's not his real birth certificate.
I suspect he doesn't actually have one. I suspect all he has is some records in state files, but not an actual valid proof of being born there.
