The HDOH claims they can’t give any information about WHAT birth index their index data for Obama is from. Not even whether it was from the Delayed Birth Certificate, Certificate of Hawaiian Birth, or pending index. So according to that, the index listing for Obama could mean they’ve got a Kleenex with “I was born in Hawaii. Barack Hussein Obama II”.
And it sounds like Abercrombie is saying that may well be what they’ve got, if anything.
The way to force answers is through a state eligibility bill. If we could each take 5 minutes to copy the bill at http://butterdezillion.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/final-short-form-eligibility-bill1.pdf , find our state legislators’ e-mail address, and C&P that bill into an e-mail asking them to introduce and pass that bill.... we could possibly get the answers we’ve all spent so much time wondering about.
And then we could get back to speculating together. =)
It can't be any of the latter because we know his birth was registered when he was 4 days old. Certificates of Hawaiian Birth were only issued to people who hadn't had their births registered by age 1. Delayed Birth Certificaes were only issued to people whose births were registered 30 days or more after the fact. And finally, there is no such thing as a "pending" index.
That leaves only one possibility...Obama must have a standard BC and the index entry is for a standard BC.
