The point is, why have a forgery at all unless there is something to hide.
Someone found a listing of his birth in a Hawaii newspapers (there’s a thread for it here), which makes it likely that he was, indeed, born in America. Therefore, what is there to hide? Some people speculate that it could be that his father is shown as “Arab” on the original. That part of the Certificate is obviously phony because “African” was never used and is not a race anyway.
Whatever it is, he obviously thinks keep it hidden is worth committing fraud. Of course, with the way he lies at every turn and has it covered up by the press, it might not even have occurred to him that it might be exposed.
He may have something to hide, or his staff just took the expedient of dl’ing the image from Kos, since it looks OK at first.
Obama himself may not even know about this online flap, or, likely does not care since he knows it’s inconsequential and what we do can’t hurt him.
Now, putting on my foil hat (I use real tin, not aluminum), he or his staff could be setting us up for a big disappointment when his “real” colb looks almost identical to the Kos one, along with cries from the usual suspects to end web anonymity.
It's a bit of a stretch to call a Penny Saver a "Newspaper," given that it's raison d'etre is being a classified section alternative.
Regular newspapers usually have birth, death, and marriage announcements. and they would be on microfiche in the public and university libraries. It would we worthwhile checking them.
