Health officials contacted the Obama campaign a few months ago in response to the persistent inquiries “to see if they could try and resolve the issue with the people who were asking questions,” she said. “They responded and apparently it isn’t good enough that he posted his birth certificate,” Okubo said."

"If they contacted the Obama campaign only "a few months ago" and the campaign responded, why does the date stamp on the posted COLB show June 6, 2007? That's more than a year ago, not a few months.

jellybean, here is a scenerio of what probably happened.

People kept calling the Hawaii Health Dept. asking about Obama's birth certificate. The Hawaii Health Dept got tired of all the calls so they contacted the campaign and asked if they couldn't do something to put it to rest. So the campaign headquarters posted a BC online. If the BC is a legitimate one that date of June 6, 2007 would be when Obama sent for a Certified Copy of his BC. The reason for that date if legitimate is probably when he was getting ready to run for office so he needed the certified copy then.

Mine is dated when I sent for it in order to get my Social Security. I never realized I needed a Certified Copy. Most people back in those days thought the hospital certificate was your official BC.

Okuba could say, "The image of the certificate on the website appears to be the same as the one we issued. The data in all the fields matches our official state records." No invasion of privacy at all because the certificate is already public.

Since she did not, it is not. Not legit, that is. At least that is the most logical inference.

One of the commenters are TexasDarlin’ quoted Judah Benjamin saying this:

“I suspect that the Original BC is missing, lost, or was destroyed long ago. If that is the case the Senator quite possibly did not, or does not know, which hospital he was born in, or if indeed he was born in a hospital at all. Passports do not contain that information.”

Way back when we started looking at the photo of BOH Sr. with all the leis that is supposed to be his graduation photo there was a quote from “Dreams” about what they would be doing and places they would be going during his later visit in 1971. I seem to remember him saying something like driving past the “remodelled hospital where I was born.”
Does anyone remember posting a quote from his book like this?
