McCain posted his original birth certificate - not a forgery.
He posted an official copy of his long form. It was not the original.
Obama posted an official short form.
Both documents suffice to prove the location of birth, as well as the identity of the parents.
The only thing missing from Obama's is information about physician's name, the hospital, and the like, none of which is relevant to the question of his eligibility.
You said — “McCain posted his original birth certificate - not a forgery.”
And according to Leo Donofrio, that doesn’t make any difference because he says McCain is just as disqualified to be President.
But, besides that, McCain was not *required* to show it. He just thought it was a good political move to show it and did so. What is not required — cannot be *demanded* to be shown, but can only be volunteered, if the person wants to. In McCain’s case, he wanted to. In Obama’s case, he has not done any more than what he’s presented to the public, thus far. Any further demands for documents, he has not agreed to or volunteered to do.
And, at this present time, Obama is the President.
