The only value the birth certificate holds is to eliminate the possibility of a "mystery father" that actually was a citizen of the United States at the time Obama was born. In asking for a birth certificate, we birthers are simply giving Obama the benefit of the doubt. If Obama had been smart enough to fake a birth certificate, reasonably well, listing American citizens as parents, then yes the birther movement would fade away. But Obama is not that smart. And his presumed father was not, and never intended to be, a U.S. citizen. Ergo, Obama held dual-citizenship at birth which precludes a "natural born citizen" status at birth. Those who argue one can have "divided allegiance" at birth, and still be "natural born citizen" are only arguing to hear their own voices.
