If all those documents (or copies thereof) were on file in Hawaii, with the information on them making up part of the data base accessed to produce a modern, up to date "certificate", you could easily get multiple certificates issued at different times responding to different requests for certification. They would all be legitimate and different.
What you are saying is that Obama could have as many as 4 legitimate birth certificates issued by governments following their own "modification" rules.The real question is of course could any of them exclude him from being our president and quite possibly from being even a citizen.If all those documents (or copies thereof) were on file in Hawaii, with the information on them making up part of the data base accessed to produce a modern, up to date "certificate", you could easily get multiple certificates issued at different times responding to different requests for certification.

Under Hawaiian law Obama didn't need to be a born in the state or even the United States to get a Hawaiian birth certificate.
Since the Constitution doesn't delve into the question of citizenship or the forfeiture of citizenship of minor children, legitimate or legitimate we are left with The Laws passed by congress as our guide....
Reading this case and the finding there in bring some facts to light that may be pertinent...
If Obama ever had an Indonesian Passport or was considered an Indonesian citizen by the legal process of adoption in that country based upon his mother's age where he was born(if it was outside the United States as has been suggested) and he didn't reaffirm his rights as a citizen at 18, is he a US citizen? or eligible to be president based upon dual (US and Indonesian) or even triple citizenship (Kenyan, US and Indonesian)?
A great many conservatives believe that this is some sort of trap by the Obama campaign.
I beg to differ(I been wanting to use that pic as an eye catch ever since I found it) The whole issue of Obama's citizenship as well as his birth certificate has them doing things they shouldn't have to do or say if there was nothing to hide.
