Parsley, do YOU want to take a crack at it,
since Wiggy is obviously stumped:

Is the reliability of the "evidence" that got us to the
"conclusion" on Obama's Eligibility unimportant?

All evidence has to be weighed by the fact finder. Either a judge or jury. So, yes the reliability is important as far as persuading the fact finder. It is not important as to whether it is admissible or not.

parsy, who says thats the short answer

I went back to see exactly what you were talking about. The image of the COLB could only be entered into evidence as what it is, a photograph of a thing. If in court, the document itself would be presented into evidence. Some courts would want a certified copy. Some wouldn’t. But as evidence, oh yes the COLB could be easily introduced and accepted.
