“I’ve NEVER read a response from you concerning the TWO DIFFERENT Certifications of Nominations for Obama’s eligibility......What do you think, “curiosity”?”

Perhaps I am missing something, but I don’t see how this helps the birther case. Do you care to elaborate on why you think it is so damning?

There is such a simple explanation for this that it defies logic that anyone would continue to try to make an issue of it.
1) The Democratic Commmittee sent the same (abridged) certification of nomination to Hawaii that they sent to some other states and the District of Columbia.
2) Hawaii election officials wrote back and said that Hawaii had changed its election law and the new law required more information in a different format in order to satisfy Hawaii election requirements.
3) The Democrats then sent a “long form” (pardon the expression) Certification of Nomination.
Here’s a link:

The “short form” (abridged) Certification of nomination that met the requirements of some states said: “THIS IS TO CERTIFY that at the National Convention of the Democrat Party of the United States of America, held in Denver, Colorado on August 25 though 28, 2008, the following were duly nominated as candidates of said Party for President and Vice President of the United States respectively:”

The “long form” (unabridged) Certification of Nomination that met the requirements of Hawaii and other states said:
“THIS IS TO CERTIFY that at the National Convention of the Democrat Party of the United States of America, held in Denver, Colorado on August 25 though 28, 2008, the following were duly nominated as candidates of said Party for President and Vice President of the United States respectively and that the following candidates for President and Vice President of the United States are legally qualified to serve under the provisions of the United States Constitution:”

END OF STORY.

Now if the birthers REALLY want a certification issue to dig their teeth into, it’s Obama’s original signature on Arizona’s ballot certification form wherein he swears that he is a “natural born citizen of the United States.” THAT document could be used as an excuse for an investigation.
