“Not in a lawyer’s vault. Actually, sealed by the White House Archivist per Sec. 2 of Executive Order 13489 signed by President Obama January 21, 2009.”
Sigh. Wrong. Yet another birther myth.
First, Executive Order 13489 applies only to Presidential Records, not the records of Obama’s life (or any President’s life) prior to becoming President.
Second, Executive Order 13489 is nearly identical, word-for-word, to Executive Order 12667, which President Reagan signed in 1989.
Third, Executive Order 13489 repealed Executive Order 13233, which President Bush signed in 2001. Executive Order 13233 placed more stringent restrictions on the release of Presidential Records than did Executive Orders 12667 and 13489.
As to the birther designation, I'm sure sighing non-birthers can happily produce a Columbia College yearbook with Obama's photo (there must be hundreds among the grads) or explain how it is that a self-described mediocre student gained admittance to Harvard Law. How about $500 to your favorite charity for a photo of Stanley Ann Dunham pregnant with the future President?
