The point being your claim that the original birth certificate is not amended unless the adoption happens near the time of birth.
not true, the original would be sealed even if 8 years old.
Would the government consider that an amendment? I don’t know the answer. What else would it be?
I don’t think so. After all the mom is the same, presumably. It would be an adoption by Lolo, not a claim of fatherhood. Besides, Fukino says she has Obama’s original birth certificate on file “in accordance with state policies and prcedures”...whatever that means.
