[null and void]

You don’t know it’s ‘invalid’.

Right there on the form it says "ANY ALTERATION VOIDS THIS DOCUMENT"

Blacking out the cert # BY ITSELF suffices.

No it doesn't. The image is not the document. It's a copy of the document. There is nothing wrong or even mildly suspicious about blacking out information that one may think should be kept private (whether or not that is a valid concern.)

So you cant use a posted internet graphic as an official, legal form. I agree. So what? That was never the issue. People are twisting ‘invalid’ to mean ‘not real’ as in not an image from a real COLB.

You CANNOT deduce from the graphic Obama’s website posted that the original COLB it was produced from is invalid.
Capiche?
